Small things that irritate you

[Creu]

But you accept shouldn’t?

Someone has parked their car outside my house for the past 6-7 months and haven’t moved it even once. It’s taxed and MOT’d, so can’t do anything about it. I know it’s a small thing and I know it shouldn’t annoy me, but it is oddly irritating.

Firstly having to delete the spam email from a bot that says my cloud storage is full, every day I block the sender, the next day it returns in a different guise, it will not die, it is a daily chore

Similar to this, my Google drive is nearly full and I spent FUCKING HOURS deleting a huge chunk of files that were mostly almost identical blurry photos of my cats so it was down to about half full. And the next time I looked, they'd all come back and I have Google pestering me to pay them to store crap that I don't want.

So I now know I have to alter the settings on my phone, but still, such a dull chore.

I also get about a million marketing emails from companies I've never signed up to, despite all the promises that GDPR meant they wouldn't be able to email me without my express permission, that I never gave.

And no I don't want to spend 'just a few minutes day' deleting them and unsubscribing. I want them to not email me in the first place.

What is the point of those videos?

Are there people who actually want to watch them?

Oh yes this. Especially if it's something really simple like letting them know about a change of address. I phoned up, told you my new address, thank you and goodbye. I don't want five follow up emails asking me how my two minute conversation was!

Smelling weed everywhere you go, vile stuff🤮 Take your filthy habit somwhere else😡

Tripod twats in the gym 🤬

If by 'tripod twats' you mean people who set up tripods to film themselves (in the gym, WTF?) then tripod twats anywhere.

I suppose they're the cousin of the people who have a friend or partner follow them around filming them on their phone. I was on holiday last week and saw two - one was a woman hanging off some railings with her dress and scarf flowing artfully and another were a couple who clearly fancied themselves as (or perhaps were) travel influencers who were talking to a phone on a tripod at an attraction near Benalmadena.

Yes I mean people who do this at the gym - there's a guy at my gym who I think of as 'Tripod Tim'. I feel like kicking his stupid tripod so hard that it breaks into three (or maybe more) different pieces.

Urgh, to spoon lickers. There's a Nescafé "cappuccino" advert atm which looks like absolute muck. But the woman in it does this horrible spoon lick of the "froth". My need to add a 'Sensitive image' warning to the photos 😄

On the subject of spoons, I hate when chefs taste a spoonful of something then put the spoon back in without washing it.
Disgusting.

Double dip 🤮🤮gads min!!

Lateness.

Well I don't think it a small thing, many do though.

Gyad indeed!

When food doesn't taste as good as it looks 😔

😂Brilliant!

😂

🤣 So true
but did you never think there might be a chocolate allergy, and you destroyed the environment using wrapping paper, no-one needs anything colourful or fun past the age of about 3.

Those tiny handheld microphones that influencers talk into.

Mail Online. It used to be one of the more decent online newspapers with just the sidebar of shame if you wanted celebrity gossip (whatever you think of it's political leanings) now it's full of so much bile and hatred, that's if it isn't the Daily Beckham/Ramsey-Peaty/Katie Price/whichever non celebrity is flavour of the month. And so much is behind pay walls it makes it unreadable.

Most of their 'writers' come across as bitter old women now, I even feel sorry for Michael Gove after some of the bile Sarah Vine writes, imagine having to put up with her.

You can tell when it changed owners as it also changed to its celebrity obsession.

Me googling where Benalmadena is.

Or smells.
That will be bacon.

people that are happy when they like to be right about x topic but when proven wrong about x topic they never seem to want to apologise and try to alter the topic to win the debate

or cars that think because they are in a car and your on a cycle, you should auto give way to the car even if you have the right of way

Size 0 sellers on vinted who feel the need to personally model plus size clothes.

Thanks but I’m not really interested in what the dress looks like hanging off your slender frame, I want to know if it’ll stretch over my fat arse.

Add to that the dreaded 'easy peeler' little oranges. No. No they are not.

Satsumas shrug their peel off in a flash and nobody ever felt the need to call them ruddy 'easy peelers'.

It would mine too!

lots of things about them would do my head in!!
