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.

People who say they are not hungry/don't want any lunch then pinch half of mine off the plate DP I am looking at you

Kids in bloody heelies, especially in shops.

Filling up the car with Fuel,.... the lottery of a busy petrol station and committing to a pump then the incumbents taking forever, in bad weather getting wet and cold, petrol dribbles that mysteriously get on clothes, then trying to get squeeze out through the rows of other cars filling up. I am feeling stressy just thinking about it.

And school staff calling me Mum. I'm not your fucking mum. Don't call me that.
(Yes, yes, I know, almost 400 pupils, probably something like 700 parents, unreasonable to expect them to know our names, but still. I DO NOT LIKE BEING CALLED MUM BY ANYONE WHO IS NOT MY CHILD.)

People who asterisk out letters from swear words (f, c etc) when there is no fucking swear filter on the site! Its twee and bollocks and gives me the rage for no good reason

The Smiths - Their music is like nails down a blackboard for me.

People who walk down the street, eyes glued to their phone expecting everyone else to move out their way.

The latter having a possible positive outcome of occasionally watching them walk into a lamppost.

Finally people who drive on a dual carriage way at 45 miles an hour. When a lorry is overtaking you maybe it's a sign you need to put your foot down and stop causing a 2 mile tail back of slow moving traffic.

Hedgehog- feel your pain. My MIL and DM will both call the landline first if they want to speak to us (DD has nicknamed this the batphone for this reason). Then they will (in this order) call my mobile, call DH's mobile, try my mobile and landline again, text me with 'Hello, you aren't answering your phone, I want to speak to you' then text DH the same. All in the space if 2 minutes. If they still don't get a response there's another round, ending with a text saying 'I really do need to speak to one of you quite urgently'. Quite urgently can mean anything from someone being ill and needing our help to them wanting to tell us about having bumped in to someone they once knew but we have never met.

Lafymayor you must eat the marsbar every time until this madness stops!

Most questions asked by my DH tbh.

For example: 'Do you think I need a coat?'

I mostly ignore now. I am not his mother.

The word panties..

People who use tea towels instead of oven gloves inexplicably gives me the rage; all my friends do this! I even bought my best friend some oven gloves and got a look.

Girls (and I do mean girls, 17/18 year olds) plodding on the treadmill at 3km per hour, phone in hand chatting to their mates on Facebook. Inside I'm screaming USE THE FUCKING TREADMILL PROPERLY OR GET OFF IT HOW DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING TO LOSE ANY WEIGHT LIKE THAT YOU'D BE BETTER DOING A ZUMBA CLASS AARGGGHHHH

And yes, I am Queen Of The Gym

Not finding the tops of Tupperware containers - but missing the point. Though this gives me the rage.
ExP interfering with my parenting and offering uninvited advice without knowledge of circumstances. 'Why don't you send DD to another school' etc
Receiving phone calls in the evening from DM who knows that I get back at 19:30 and then gives me half an hour and phones at 20:00.

Has anyone said sauntering? really try every day to let things wash over me but fuckers in the way, who could run for a train but instead are doing some sort of low-grade isometric tai chi forward sashaying, make me curse not quite under my breath.

Recumbent bicycles make me irrationally angry. So far I have resisted the urge to push them over if on foot or drive over them in the car, by exerting iron willpower. I cannot resist muttering "prat" under my breath.

The retired going food shopping on a Saturday morning or at the busiest time of the day (when school closes and people have finished work). I just want to get my shopping quickly after work or on a weekend and get home but they saunter around getting in my way. #sorrynotsorry

LiviaDrusillaAugusta In my defence, asterisking (is that a word) out the word cunt was just because it's my first post (I didn't know there were no filters on MN) and where I live there are filters on EVERYTHING, you can't say anything, even the words bitch, bloody and gay are blanked out on TV. Strangely, they quite often miss the word wanker. In fact, this makes me angry .
From now on, I will be Mrs Sweary McSweary.

When they use empty coffee take away cups on tv. Drives me mad!

Mr Blue Sky. I hate that song. It's the bit at the end which goes on for hours.
Random apostrophes. Just because there's an s at the end of a word.
Youse, as in 'youse two'. Aargh!

Geese.

Slow walkers.

People walking more than two abreast.

People putting their bags on seats on buses and trains, unless empty (I WILL sit on it!).

My own inability to brush my teeth without getting specks on the mirror (boak).

Bathroom mirror toothpaste specks in general.

Queues to get into or out of a tube station.

Geese, again.

People who don't take paracetamols that are adjacent to each other it makes me crazy !!!

People that pronounce the letter "H" like Hate-ch instead of Eight-ch 😡

People doing their weekly fucking shop at the petrol station. Then get back to the car and piss about for 10 minutes, sort yourself out and bloody move. Anything other than fuel should be bloody banned. Thank goodness for pay at pump haha.

eatsshitandleaves to the dual carriage way YES YES YES! And motorways, when a 45 tonne truck is passing you, time to reevaluate your driving skills!

People who don't hand you money in shops and put it on the counter leaving you to try and slide pick it up whilst watching you struggle 😡

People who say literally when they mean figuratively. Misplaced apostrophes. Any of the would of/ could of, their/there list. People who are rude. Fake reality TV- TOWIE, Geordie shore and all that shit. Why are these people famous? Patients who answer the question: "how long have you had X symptom for?" With the answer "a while/ a bit/some time" and then when I try and get them to be more specific I get another variation on "a while." This does not help me decide if your chest pain is a heart attack or not!

People who park so their car's boot or bumper is as close to my dropped kerb as possible, making it more difficult for me to get off my drive. Perfectly legitimate and not hurting anyone, but gives me the hump.

Cyclists riding two abreast. One behind the other please, you're causing chaos with overtaking traffic.

Neighbours that have bonfires or bbq's when my washing is still out!!!! ie, before 5pm with no polite warning!!! 😡😤😡😤😡😤😡😤😡😤😡😤😡

Managers that think it's okay to talk down to you and treat you with absolutely no respect whatsoever and get away with being so rude because they can and there other half is the area manager! Now I've started I can't stop venting... 😡😡😡
