Annoying little FWPs

[rosemole]

What's more annoying than your phone falling down the side of the driver side car seat which is too narrow for your hand to fit through?

That is all.

This is really petty but I HATE it when I make the bed up with fresh sheets and DH gets in first. I want to be the one to luxuriate in the fresh bed before he breaks the seal!

FWP is an initialism not an acronym

NASA is an acronym

I’m familiar with German poo shelves. This is the first I have ever heard of a poo carpet

Please can you explain this? I've had both a hard week and a few drinks and my brain can't cope with that it seems

The bread splitting as you're buttering it

An initialism is where you say the letters ie we say N-H-S as if spelling it out.

whereas with NASA we pronounce as if a work ie we don’t spell out N-A-S-A

other examples;

acronyms: LOL, FOMO, LASER - they are pronounced as words

initialisms: D-N-A, M-o-D, C-I-A (ie we spell out the individual letters)

Thank you. I get it now! @Scautish

Catching your sleeve on a door handle

Having to think of a name for a new character when I am playing an RPG.

Don't third world people have door handles?

@Justme2023123 oh my god, this ! The sheer all engulfing rage at being yanked backwards.

I caught my sleeve on a handle last week, I now have a large bruise on my stomach as a result.

@DuncanMcleod FWP usually refers to minor issues that do not affect your overall wellbeing and prospects. But that often make you (unreasonably) pissed off.

Stop being a dick.

Doubling annoying when you’ve got a cup of tea/coffee in your hand and it fucking goes everywhere!

The free coffee machine at your local Waitrose is out of order AGAIN!
I swear they just turn it off cos they’re sick of filling the milk up constantly…

I have my living room set up so that when I’m on the sofa I can reach the side table where I put my cup of tea and the remote controls. So in the evening when I go in to relax, I put the tea on the table, settle myself into a comfortable position, with the blanket over me, and reach for my tea and the remotes. And it works perfectly. Except every week, after my cleaner has been, she moves the furniture to Hoover/dust and never puts it back properly so my tea and the remotes end up out of my reach. And I have to get up and rearrange everything. Yes, the ultimate FML FWP!

My poo carpet is toilet paper so my poo slides off the toilet shelf easily otherwise it gets stuck
Sorry too much info at this time of the morning!

This! Particularly when it's your last egg.

Realising I've left the good sunglasses at home. I'm particularly annoyed this morning as it's sunny and I'm driving with the crappy spare set on.

in our van things are always going down the side then when you try to retrieve you end up with scratched bleeding hand.
not got glasses on and you step on some kibble on the floor that the dogs have dropped out their bowls doesnt sound much but its like stepping on concrete pieces, somewhere up there with standing on lego bricks!

Continuing the egg theme: putting eggs into boil for eggs and soldiers and the shell cracks: streamers everywhere and a weird half hollowed out shell filled with boiling water that makes the soldiers ho soggy 😡

Best way to block the toilet

OH does this so I know

These have saved my sanity as I was always droppings things in the gap.

Honey hardening in plastic squeeze bottle.
I put it into boiling water, but it never dissolves completely.
