What trivial things get on your nerves?

[InSearchOfMartin]

Sentences that end with xxxx, right? xxxx, no? xxxx, yes? It not only looks wrong (maybe I should be on Pedant's Corner!) but it tells you you cannot disagree.

My dad moves the cutlery holder in my dishwasher every time he visits....
Doesn't load the bloody thing... just moves it.

That's just rude! 😀

Putting the letter D before every sodding relationship when talking on here. Just write the sodding word out it's not hard! When people start doing with PETS, it's mental.

He’s not but he used to work as a vehicle dispatcher and I reckon it’s probably the same.
I’ll ask him (twice!) when he gets in.

When people on social media upload a photo of themselves at a wedding, with a caption “Celebrating” Mr&Mrs x

Why is it annoying?

This winds me up to no end. My partner does this to the extent where she leaves the last couple of squares on the toilet roll, so she feels that she doesn’t have to change the whole toilet roll 🙄

Dh completely forgetting that I exist, as soon as he can’t see me - for example, offering to get me a drink, then wandering off, getting distracted, and forgetting to bring the drink.

Ahhh yes. Thanking destinations for a good time. This kills me

And the 'let's get into it'🤢

Hearing people pronounce book as berk, or perfect as pahfect, or think as thenk, just sounds very affected, especially with vocal fry

Booking something online and you have to create an account, then you get endless emails and requests for recommendations until you unsubscribe.

“It’s giving…”

To mean “it’s reminiscent of”

Current irritation is the use of "yourself" on traitors

"I am voting for yourself Linda"

No no no just no
Most have started doing it!!!

People who misuse “yourself”, “myself” etc are basically announcing themselves as a bit thick. Can be handy.

Social media reels that start POV: and then go on to say something that isn't a point of view.

People (all of a certain ilk) who are incapable of answering any question without starting with the word 'so...'

I've noticed this is creeping in with politicians as well.

Speaking of politicians, the ones who are incapable of answering a difficult question without starting with: 'Look,....' and then waffling on in a way that completely avoids answering the question but does mention 22 billion black holes and 14 years of Tory failure.

the gradual creep of American English into the UK. When was the last time you heard someone say the word flavoursome? It's all about flavourful now.

I know. They think they are speaking 'properly' and professionally. But it's just painful. It's usually estate agents that are the main culprits but this week I've had a waitress ask 'is everything alright for yourself?'

Patients coming into my place of work with a painful condition, they say the pain's 10/10 but havent taken any painkillers........we don't have a magic wand you know!

Maybe they are worried that, if they have taken painkillers, you won’t be able to see their real condition during the appointment, @Cornwallinverness? Or that, if they have taken painkillers, and you prescribe something better, they will have to wait to start taking it?

Or just bloody well write my H or my P.

Someone wrote DSepsis at one point.

I can't fucking remember when it happened but I hurt myself laughing.

Driving around a busy car park looking for a space. Finally seeing one in the distance, then on approach finding someone had taken with their tiny car.

Such a a range of emotions in a small space of time.

Since I’ve just seen it elsewhere on here, people saying ‘anyways’ instead of ‘anyway’.

Where TF did that come from? I never saw it even just a few years ago.

There is a relentless tide of semi-literate thickery. Even more depressing is the number of people who think it doesn’t matter.

The annoying noise supermarket delivery vans make when they reverse.
