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.

DH leaves half drank bottles of water all around the house. He also calls all fizzy juice cola. Why?!

People who start a sentence with 'Look' make me want to scream . It sounds so condescending .

It may be a Northern thing but the phrase "s/he's been calling you. ." said to imply that someone has been saying bad things about you behind your back. I take it to mean someone has been 'phoning me!!

Pizza leaflets through the door, begrudge picking them up.
Paying to park when I just want to pop into one shop.
Taking delivery of neighbours parcels, I should say no .
Those stupid little milk containers in cafes.
Anyone parking outside my house, I don't want to leave my car at the other end of my street.
Mayonnaise in pre-packed sandwiches.
Marks & Spencers Women's clothes.

The media (obviously uneducated) who are trying to indoctrinate us all to say "is yet to..." Instead of "has yet to..." Think about it.

Loose woman winds me up, also the street cleaner who cleans my street at 5 am and wakes me up and bus drivers who let too many people on the bus .

Art Deco font like this - I despise it .

SueGeneris are you me?!
Yes to every one of those apart from the proms (never watched/listened).

Sneezing more than twice & it should be legal to kidney punch you.
Sniffing, Just Blow Your Nose!
Coughing, Cover Your Mouth FFS!
Breathing/eating too loudly.
Chewing with mouth open.
Snoring at any volume, unacceptable.
Sudden unexpected noises, especially if loud/shrill.
Shrieking children (see above) have to resist the urge to drop kick them
Whistling. Nothing "jaunty" about it. It actually hurts my ears.
People who leave their gates open in windy weather.
People who leave their dogs to bark outside all night long.
Anything i want/need being out of stock/discontinued or otherwise unavailable.
So many others that i just can't remember right now.
My bad memory.
The entirely reasonable fury!!

Tom Petty

The way Americans say 'herb'. They say it 'erb'.

Jeans below boxer shorts (fortunately not so common as it once was).
Neat, petite women
Calling Henman Hill, Murray Mount. It's not and never will be Murray Mount.
Olly Murs (actually he's probably not perfectly acceptable )

And Cath Kidston shops.

Yes lambzig re DH the ultimate authority. Especially when we are breathlessly told ' I read the thread to DH and he said it was hilarious'. Thank god a man has given his stamp of approval.

bedside tables - disproportionately expensive

I approve completely .
That is the only response I would/should have answered with
I just wasn't bright enough

Any software insisting that it wants to update itself. My printer which has decided it can't connect to the internet if my computer is also connected.

My personal trainer (first world problem alert!) who spends 5 minutes of our 30 minute session stabbing ineffectually at his ipad to find out what we did last time and what we are up to.

People who say "You alright?" instead of "hello", "good morning", "good afternoon".

Some american voices. Particularly when (like yesterday) BBC went across the pond to a political NBC reporter or whatever. She had a voice like a chipmunk on helium. I couldn't take her seriously. Slow down woman! And lower your tone 3 octaves.

I've thought of some more.

People, generally in call centres, who say yourself/myself thinking it makes them sound super intelligent. It doesn't it makes you sound like a dimwit. Eg can I do anything else for yourself today? Or if you could just return that to myself we will get the matter resolved. Makes me want to offer them an impromptu grammar lesson.

People who wish their loved ones happy birthday etc on Facebook. Just go into the next room and tell them to their face you fool. We don't need to know it's their birthday.

In fact just Facebook. I can't bear people's updates on it.

Women who make no effort to not show bra straps. Such as when wearing a strappy top. The straps simply won't cover the straps, wear a strspless bra or a wider strapped top. And bandeau tops with a strapped bra? Makes my blood curdle. I think I'm embarrassed for them showing their underwear. Aren't I a prude.

So with you there, Kennycat, on the bra strap thing! I've even had to tell friends and colleagues that their bra straps are showing (in case they didn't know and wanted to fix it).
Isn't the rule that if you need a bra with a strappy top (and let's face it, many of us do) you at least coordinate the colour scheme?! Or wear a strapless bra?! (Not an option for me as doubt if it would contain them and would be constantly hoiking!)

People who sit in the gym, normally taking up one of very few stretching mats, tapping away on their mobile, not breaking a bead of sweat. Then I can see marine them going to work and saying "I was at the gym this morning at half 6".

And they're always the ones in the newest fitness gear, all that luminous pink dayglo bollox from Tescos etc.

Um, being in a gym isn't the same as doing a workout, hate to break it to you ....

The term "can I get" instead of "may I have". I always want to say "well you can but that's what the waitress/assistant is for".

Too many Americanisms grrrr

People who say they "reached out to" instead of "contacted".

Smug Facebook posts, especially "feeling blessed".

My colleague who says EVERY SINGLE DAY AT 10:30, "Is it lunchtime yet? I am literally starving to actual death".

The sound of carrier bags or sweet wrappers or crisp packets. And tapping and fiddling - just general repetitive noise or movement.

People who eat with their mouths open.

You know when you go to McDonalds and you say,
"I'll have a Quarter pounder please"
And they reply,
"Is that a meal?"

That annoys me. It makes me want to scream in their face,
"If it was a meal.... I would HAVE FUCKING SAID SO"

"Do you want fries?"
"Aaaarrrrgggggghhhhhh"
