What perfectly acceptable things that make you unreasonably angry?

[BrotherBeer]

Every morning DH asks me to check over his face for random missed shaving bits and blemishes. Then when I tell him he's fine, he says 'Are you sure?'. Just look in the fucking mirror you dick.

I speak to my mum everyday on the phone. She always asks me what we're having for tea. I tell her then she tells me whether she likes that particular meal or not (usually not). I'm not inviting her round so why do I care if she likes my tea or not?

I'm an unreasonable person.

I hate it when people say that things rock.
Christmas rocks
You rock
Bacon rocks
That kind of thing.

I also hate looking at pictures of Donald Trump. Just his face turns my stomach. Avoid them I hear you say. Easier said than done his orange turd like face is everywhere.

People who come up to us on the till, when its heaving to ask where something is or if we have any more. Ask someone on the shop floor.

Andrea McLean off loose women. She gives me the rage. Her mouth, her face, her voice, everything. Miss Goody Two Shoes.

Pouty selfie duck lips. I want to punch people who do them. In years to come they'll look back and be embarrassed hopefully

The way my husband says the word "film". He says "filim" and it is so so annoying.

Hot food on cold plates

Yes to Lulu (especially when she says she's had no work done... my arse she has)

People with little mouths like Donald Trump's.

There's plenty more but I'm getting too annoyed to type them!

AAAARGH TheNaze you're so right about that - 'shall we dance?' I equate them with the people who bump into me, then put their hands on my shoulders and try to lift me out of the way - I'm short and light, but even so!

VVV unreasonable but school awards give me a headache, particularly when the same conversation comes up at the end of every bloody term..
"Why didn't I get an award? I worked really hard this term AND I helped out with X and Y and Caitlin got an award for helping out with Y and I didn't"
'Not everyone can win awards all the time'
'So why do they have them, then?'
'Erm, to recognise someone who's worked especially hard, perhaps'
'But my report said I work hard all the time, and I didn't get an award.'
'Well, maybe they did something out of school that the school wanted to recognise.'
'But then they would have got an award out of school anyway, so why have two?'
"It's not about winning awards, it's about doing your best, and being pleased for your friends who did win awards." (knowing this is a shit response)
"So why have awards in the first place?"
Repeat until next term's awards ceremony...

Aled Jones. Everything about Aled Jones.

Fellow Lulu haters - that's EXACTLY it. Half a century of a career based on screaming 'waheyyyyyyeeeelll' whether asked to or not.

I know the sadly deceased Cilla Black was a focus of MN hatred but at least she did some good songs in the 60s.

Claire Sweeney is intensely rage-inducing too. Didn't mention her earlier as think I'd blocked her out of my memory but it's all just flooded back.

Rousette Oh yes Andrea McLean. She's a posh, smug, goody-two shoes twat who thinks she's really beautiful.

And people who put hot food on cold plates. DH hates hot plates. He puts his hit food on a cold plate then kind of flattens it out so that as much of the hot food is touching the cold plate as possible because he likes luke-warm food. Disgusting bastard.

DH uses Yorkshire puddings and gravy like normal people use doritoes and salsa. Yorkshire puddings are not finger food and gravy is not a dip. Bastard.

''I literally died''. No you clearly didn't LITERALLY die, did you?

''I brought some new shoes from Next the other day'' No, you BOUGHT some new shoes.

Bad drivers.

People referring to everything as 'cheeky', particularly when posting on social media. "Cheeky wine" "cheeky girl's night out" "cheeky curry".

People MIL only ever referring to children as "little people" or a child as "little person"

TV adverts for cleaning products/supermarkets which show 'smiling happy mums' - because mother's are the only people who clean or feed the family apparently.

Every time I speak to a certain person she tells me about her ailments, also telling me that she'd booked an appointment at the surgery but had cancelled it and doubted she'd get another one for weeks. Ummmm why cancel it in the first place then?

Everything she does or everywhere she goes, she says that she was terrified/scared to death/so worried about doing it or going. So don't bloody well do said shit if you're so traumatised by it (an example recently was whether to purchase a supermarkets own brand coffee in case she didn't like it. This was, apparently, terrifying ).

Misused apostrophes

People (DM) who put everything in little plastic bags.

Bonnie Langford. Squeaky superannuated lisping show-off. And a face like a gerbil trapped in a lift door. She popped up on some clip-and-talking-head show recently as if she knew the first damn thing about the subject on offer.

Oh oh and while I'm at it, clip-and-talking-head shows. Just show me the fecking thing you're talking about, I do not give even half a rat's mouldy arse what some has-been lackwit has been told to say about it.

Thought of another one...

When people interrupt what you're saying to tell you that they thought you had said something different and it had amused their tiny little minds but isn't actually funny or at all relevant when they then tell you this instead of listening to what you're actually trying to say. Like this:

Me: 'I took the rabbit to the vet earlier and they said...'
Them: 'OH HAHA I thought you just said you took the rabbit to TIBET HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA'
Me: 'well I didn't say that now fuck off'

The voice of Florence out of Florence and the machine.

This thread is hilarious! I'm glad I'm not the only one!

While we're at it...
I know someone who gets in my personal space. When she talks to me I end up shuffling back and back and back... so much so, I travelled the length of the local pub and ended up rammed against the bar recently. I'm happy to talk but please don't feel your head has to be nearly touching mine!

Notices that say 'Polite Notice'
They give me a huge amount of rage, why do you have to tell me it's a polite notice? Just write a bloody polite notice! I will decide if your bloody notice is polite or not!
The 'turn around' crew annoy me immensely too. They're called either 'Bonnie Tyler' or 'Whirling Dervishes' by me. But no one gets either of those.

I agree inertia

It's very nasal.

I had a boss like that years ago rousette I thought he was being pervy trying to look down my top initially, then I realised he did it to everyone, males too- you'd see them edging away backwards across the office

It's a weird thing Slightly. She speaks quite quietly usually gossip and feels the need to be an inch or two from my face, it's very annoying!

Also, people who look over their shoulder whilst they are talking to me. Sizing up the room for someone more scintillating to talk to... vaaaairy ruuuude

The same faces which keep appearing on all women's magazines for the over 30s. Lulu and Twiggy as above, and Lorraine Kelly.

Meaningless things for charity (Christmas Jumper Day, Ice Bucket Challenge etc)
People saying 'a wine' 'a cuppa' 'a coffee'
Excess of baby pictures on Facebook
Onesies
Morph suits
Adults playing computer games
Clicky keypad tones on mobile phones
The MN refrain 'it must be great to not not have anything to worry about other than (insert example of casual sexism)' I HAVE PLENTY TO WORRY ABOUT THANK YOU, INCLUDING SYSTEMIC MISOGYNY!!!

Paloma Faith
Edith Bowman
When you are driving along a narrow road, stop to let oncoming traffic through and the driver doesn't acknowledge you. Gives me the rage

Fern Britain - smug, smiley twat! Everyone knows you're not really that nice!

Space invaders - people who insist on standing two inches from your face when talking to you.

Wind

Loud eating

The Lighthouse Family grrrrrr!!!!

People who pretend to care about you and your life by asking cleverly (or not so cleverly) worded questions when in gact they're just being a nosey bastard

In fact*
