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?'. Angry 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? Angry

I'm an unreasonable person.

Contradictory health advice in the news.
Makes you want to give up and eat chips and chocolate cake all day.

My cat is comatose on the floor right now.

People ordering in restaurants who say "I'll get". They are not going to get it, that is what the waiter does! They are going to have it. This seems to have come over from America and is quite widespread now

Sneezing - like seriously the way my OH sneezes it makes me so mad. He doesn't open his mouth and just does this internal sneeze.

Also burping... and he never opens his mouth. Its all morning and all night.

AND he rubs his feet on mine to get himself to sleep. AND then snores all night.

We often have food that's to share at work and this woman will break bits of biscuits or cut bits of bite size brownies and leave the rest there. Really annoys me!

spankhurst · 19/07/2016 10:57

Periods. Just why.

Agree with the get nonsense. Can I get a cappucino? No you twat, but you MAY HAVE one.

People who say "I turned around and said...."

Somebody I know who starts almost every sentence with "well, as (her DH) says..."

People who do wacky things to raise money for charity

shopaholic999 · 19/07/2016 10:57

The noise of a drink being poured..especially wine. DH pours it from as high up as he can to piss me off even more..unbelievable rage!!

Clg199 · 19/07/2016 10:59

When people ask me what the weather is going to do, or if it's going to rain. I don't know!

People on really loud motorbikes who roar around the place for no reason. It terrifies my poor dog :( Similarly fireworks and thunder, although they're slightly less reasonable rages.

squoosh · 19/07/2016 11:03

People who press, press, press, press, press, press, press, press the button at the pedestrian crossing.

IT WONT' MAKE THE LIGHTS CHANGE ANY QUICKER YOU FOOL.

CBeebies' "I Can Cook" programme and presenter.

James Corden.

Small groups of people seemingly having family reunions right across the aisles in supermarkets.

Royal Mail handling fees.

People who use the phrases "little lady" or "little man" about babies.

Whistling.

People who talk constantly about their work.

Mashed potato.

People who feel a meal isn't a meal without meat.

FuckingMother · 19/07/2016 11:04

Adult women who speak in little girl's voice

I know I am very unreasonable but I feel deeply suspicious that it is TOTALLY PUT ON and they really have a voice like Mariella Frostrup.

Lady Golf Captains Grin

Golfers in general. I live on a golf course - it's lovely when it's empty.

VanellopeVonSchweetz99 · 19/07/2016 11:06

People who walk around having conversations in languages other than English!

I know this is totally unreasonable of me, must point out I'm not a native English speaker myself. Confused

It's just I'm a nosy cow and I hate it when I can't eavesdrop.

LetsGetReadyToGrumble · 19/07/2016 11:06

Burnt toast. Why are those settings even available on a toaster? It has one job to do. Not like an overnight or microwave that wears many hats, toasters just have one thing to get right. (Nothing to do with my toasting skills, of course).

TitaniasTits · 19/07/2016 11:08

The glugging noise people's throats make when they swallow. Makes me want to slit said throats so they can't do it again.

LetsGetReadyToGrumble · 19/07/2016 11:08

*oven not overnight Confused

Which brings me on to my next point... Autocorrect! I MEAN FUCK YOU NOT DUCK YOU! Really diffuses a situation when that sneaky little bastard slips in and changes a word against your will.
