Lighthearted things that give you the rage

[Lelophants]

When youre trying to pull out baby wipes when needing to clean something (often a baby’s bum!) very quickly and either none will come out or an absolutely massive wad of them!

The postie giving us the mail of someone who lives over a mile away (ie cant just drop it next door).

When technology doesnt just work.

Washing feckin water drinking obsessive family members water bottles that are too big to go in dishwasher but don’t stand up properly on the drying rack and so CONSTANTLY fall over while “drying”

Getting a wet sleeve while washing up 😖

Anything that has to be packed away in a packing bag that is inexplicably 0.0001 mm too small for the pissing sleeping bag/roll mat/whatever

Anything that has to be packed away in a packing bag that is inexplicably 0.0001 mm too small for the pissing sleeping bag/roll mat/whatever

I'll add, anything that has a custom bag or box which is way too big for the contents and takes up lots of room in your cupboard. Children's games are often bad for this - I suppose it makes them look more substantial.

In the 10 years I've been with dp,ive always done our washing

I'm the one who buys the washing powder and the fabric conditioner and I'm the one who does the washing

I have my own system and am happy to do this (he does way more of the housework but washing is my job)

Anyway,our dryer broke about a month ago so I've been drying everything on the clothes horse/radiators

I set up my own system to get everything dry,folded and put away

Enter dp

He's thought nothing of 'helping' and moving clothes that I've hung up to dry so that when I go to move something,I cant sodding find it-im sick of playing 'hunt my pyjamas/jeans/knickers'

Thank god we have a new dryer coming tomorrow as I'm very bloody tempted to strangle him with a stray sock

I never knew how much I rely on a dryer until it broke down (disclaimer-as soon as it's sunny outside,the whole lot is going on the line)

When Henry hoover gets stuck on a corner.

Anyone saying “You got this” 😡😱

Picking up dog poo and my (bagged) hand closes on a COLD poo, meaning it's not my dog's poo but an unidentified dog's poo. Makes me boke every time. 😱

And yet he still smiles the whole time you’re bloody yanking his hose to pull him round.

Vanilla slices stuck to the Greggs paper bag and the lovely icing 😋 has to be picked off in bits leaving a nude vanilla 😩

Oh, yes. I'm convinced that kids' games and toys are made in the same factories as Easter eggs. Which are probably also easily 6 times as big as the space required by the machinery and staff needed to produce them!

DH sitting there with his feet on the reclining chair foot-rest, flicking his flip flops/sliders up and down on his feet........., and then chewing the bits of dry skin on his fingers. 😡

I need a shovel and an alibi! 😱

.

Anyone who says 'stop/stop it' or uses generally when they actually mean genuinely!

Anyone who parks in the parent and child spaces with no child!

Anyone who insists on walking on the lowered curb when crossing a road whilst I'm wheeling my pram - I realise this may be entitled but it's really annoying when people could just lift their feet higher and walk on the higher part of the curb and give me some room to cross the road with my baby!

The cat who spends ages gagging, heaving, and retching. Long enough for you to arm yourself with several sheets of kitchen towel and a floor wipe (yes they behave the same as wet wipes) only to vomit up a tiny bit of clear mucus with a single blade of grass or, even better, nothing at all.

Coathangers. Tangly little arseholes.

😂 Totally relatable. As is the tiny nugget of poo situation as @shellyleppard mentioned! 😆

People in SUVs just running their engines and idling for no apparent reason

When you enter your password and it says you’ve entered it incorrectly so you check and re-enter and it’s still wrong, and you can’t understand why because it’s the same one you always use. So you add the special character that you don’t normally have in your passwords but only use for passwords that demand a special character, and it’s still wrong.

You give up and click the ‘forgot your password’ link, stick in your email address and then check your email for the reset link. You refresh your inbox 26 times, check your spam folder and eventually the email arrives.

You click the link and enter your ‘new’ password (which is the password you thought it actually was to begin with) and it says “Sorry, you have already used this password. Please choose a new one”.

RARRRRGGGGHHH!!!!

Water that collects on the base of upturned mugs in the dishwasher.

My DD putting spoons bowl-up in the dishwasher 😡

My DH using dishwasher space inefficiently so I have to either restack it or wash by hand after dinner 🤬

Standing for hours behind the person behind at Tesco checkout, who then looks amazed to be asked by cashier for their club card and bank card. Fiddling around for minutes looking for both, then spends an hour packing. Then the cashier has to get another member of staff over because the scanner isn’t working.
Spending what seems like hours a day cleaning litter trays, that cats who go outside rush in to use said trays then go outside again.
Filling my pigeon proof bird table with food for the robins and other little birds twice a day, after pigeons have scoffed the food.

Oh yes! Mine is a Miele and should be able to negotiate corners. But no, manages to get stuck and then sometimes flail and fall over into its back. Good job is hoovers well otherwise...

Pockets and sleeves that get caught in door handles! Argh! Especially when I am in a rush to answer the door or something like that.
We also have a hook to hang our single hand oven mitts which was at the right wrong height to catch the bottom edge of a top and rip a hole in it. So many nice tops ruined. The hook has now been moved due to a kitchen move around, but it was many years of putting up with it as it was

People who stand in front of the escalator rummaging in their bag.
People who stop for a chat at the end of a supermarket aisle with their trollies crossed, like they're going to ask for your password.
People who are standing looking at a shelf in the supermarket, until you pass and they suddenly set off again and bash into you.
People who are absolutely amazed when the cashier asks them to pay for their enormous trolley load of shopping, so they have to then take ages to root their purse/wallet out.
(I hate shopping).

People.

People licking knives.

Sorry but... women making "funny" comments about murdering or harming their partners. It's only funny if you maintain the assumption that women are weak, impotent little dears, which is an insidious form if misogyny.

This happens to me when I wear cardigans or hoodies with pockets, mainly on kitchen drawer handles. It's so annoying.
