Small unreasonable things that annoy you

[WalkingWolf]

Here are mine...

My mum putting hair clips in DDs hair.

Fil is obsessed with mowing our lawn in the summer. Of course it's lovely of him to do but he never tells me he's coming and just let's himself in. Really winds me up and I have no idea why.

Another Fil one. Whenever he comes over, if there are any dirty dishes in the sink, he insists on washing them. You can't stop him. The problem is that he doesn't actually wash them. He kind of dips them in the dirty water they've been soaking in, then puts them straight on the drainer.

Of course I wouldn't ever complain about these things and I'm definitely BU to be annoyed.

So tell me about the small things that shouldn't annoy you, but do.

My mum calls a strong cup of tea a 'proper' builders brew. Which annoys me because of tea that's brewed for too long with fuck all milk in it has nothing to do with builders.

When you open a new liquid soap handwash whatever you want to call it and the nozzle isn't centred! Drives me mad. Also cupboard/wardrobe doors not being fully closed!
My dh using the kettle and then putting it on the side NEXT TO the base and not on it. Where's the sense in that!
My dcs saying ya instead of you
Odd numbers
I think I need a lie down now

People who park in my parking space even though I don't actually have a car. Totally irrational but it really pisses me off!

Ooh I don't like the word babby either cheese. I thought I was being intolerant (h's domineering unhinged sister uses it to talk to babies including mine when they were small ) but maybe it's the word's fault!

Strangers who appear and start to accidentally walk right along side you!

No matter how hard you slow down or speed up, they stay and fucking stay!

Its awkward and annoying!

Turning up to a set of traffic lights where a number of people are waiting but no ones pressed the button. How long were you all going to wait? How lazy are you?

People making 'hearts' by putting both their hands together, in pictures or videos.

I feel very lucky that It's impossible to do in a 'selfie'.

Why it drives me so damn nuts, I have no idea. I just think it looks silly!

Bald baby girls with those silly stretchy flower-adorned headbands,
Grandparents pushing the pram with the parent walking alongside,
Babies in a car seat in the front passenger seat, with dad driving and mum relegated to the back.

Little bits of damp herbs sticking to my fingers after I've chopped a bunch.

Ds3 dropping his clothes on the floor.

Little girls' pink bikes with streamers waving out of the handlebars.

Micro scooters, especially when parent is languidly pulling dc with a piece of rope.

People faffing about packing in supermarkets (done to death, I know!)

Mil insisting on keeping the foil on lidded tubs of butter. Manky crumpled piece of foil has to be peeled back every time and carefully flattened after butter consumption.

Bad parking eg leaving 3 or 4 feet at the end of a bay so it can't be optimally used by as many cars as possible.

Can you borrow me a pencil

People who lick their fingers when turning over sheets of paper

This happened to us yesterday and they were talking so loudly that it drowned out mine and DC's conversation. So we stopped and moved to the side to let them get ahead.

They then looked back to see why we had stopped!

Friend looking after my dog overnight. I go to collect her and start gathering up her things to put in the car. Friend begins talking to her. It's only after a few moments I realise he's saying something like

'We've been a walk haven't we, DDOG? You've had a few wees and had some biscuits, haven't you?' etc.

Obviously talking to me about where her day's at, but because I thought he was talking to the dog and not me, I have to ask him to tell me all over again!

'Been a walk'. NO!You have been FOR a walk or OUT for a walk!
