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.

That ubiquitous 'whistle' ring tone. Followed by the ring tone that sounds like an old fashioned car horn.

Oh and just to add here:

Red nose day (very wealthy celebs ordering the little people to give up their money and those clichéd pictures of suffering children);
Pink ribbons for cancer;
People who tell me to 'enjoy!"
Cosy adverts from utility companies;
All gambling adverts (when was this even allowed - just ghastly);
Whistling accompaniments in TV adverts (yes there is a lot of it about);
Cold callers - all of them and especially chuggers (please bugger off and do not disturb my peaceful enjoyment in my own home);
All organised religions;
Gnocchi (the worst stodge ever);
Traffic lights that seem to keep on red forever;
Road works/or roads just closed for no explicable reason (seems someone is just doing it on a whim, just because the bastar*s can?);
Clothes that keep shrinking despite my best endeavours to manage my weight.

I'm sure there's more but it's nice to get them off my chest Grin

People who turn the steering wheel of their car with the heel of their hand, like a bus driver.

Whole stomach tenses up with anger.

Depends what you mean by perfectly reasonable.....one person's perfectly reasonable is another one's hell.
I cannot stand:
Bad grammar
People who say "haitch". It's flipping "aitch"!
Using words you cannot pronounce like "specifically" (it is not "pacifically"!). If you can't say it right, don't bloody use it!
The squeaky bird on the SCS adverts
People who will not make a decision then blame someone else for making a decision they don't like.
People that don't remember the "magic words" because they feel it is their God given right to have you hold that door open, demand you do something or run around after them (after all you have nothing better to do).
Timewasters.
People who look for hidden meanings in everything you say because they like drama
Or maybe I am just a cranky old bird.......
