What do you get irrationally annoyed about?

[ghosty]

I have been smiling to myself at 'am I being unreasonable to want to go to the BBC HQ and bite someone' and 'am I being unreasonable to be Homicidal with Rage about ...' threads

I am generally a chilled person ... I can't get myself worked up about parent and toddler car parking threads for example ...
And laughed till I cried over the 'grapes' thread years ago on Mumsnet ...

BUT: When I help my children do a jigsaw puzzle and find at the end that there is a piece missing I get soooooooooooooo irrationally angry that I want to chuck a chair out of the window ....
Obviously I don't ... as I am a 'nice mummy' and I would scare my children. But inside I am screaming "Where is that faaaaaarrrrrking jigsaw piece????????"
I have to go and take deep breaths and calm down or have a gin
I am the same with lost shoes.
And if someone parks their car on the pavement on the way to school and I have to push the buggy out onto the road to get past I have to suppress an urge to run my keys down the side of that car

So, what silly thing do you get irrationally cross about????

same as bandofmothers I really want to ram the buggy into the back of their ankles

Prawns, One day I will let loose and scream.

People who are always late. Drives me crazy.

loads of the above plus people speeding on residential roads, people using mobiles while driving, idiots in huge 4x4's in a city. I swear I'm going to get hold of a tank one day and just drive at them...Oh and I'll squash all the ones that are parked on the pavement

i get annoyed with fuckwits at mini roundabouts - usually women. " oh my which way now" its the same love, just smaller LOOK TO THE EFFIN RIGHT

trucks that overtake on the motorway - on a fucking HILL

motorway madness every friday WHERE ARE YOU ALL GOING? dont you know my trip is important ffs true though i do think that its bizarre!

i want to physically beat to death with a wet kipper the fuckwits who fill up there car with petrol - the petrol station is full. cars are waiting for petrol - queuing - and they leave their car right there in front of the pump whilst they go to pay - or WORSE go do a bit of shopping - "la di da whilst lots of people are waiting i'll just get some bead,oh those choccies lok nice, oooh look special offer"

fuckers. MOVE YOUR CAR to the parking space.

another one

petrol station - the sill fuckers who queue at one pump becuase the nozzle goes in that side ( usually right side of car)

THE HOSE STRETCHES - you daft fuckers.

Spot on about people pushing past you with buggy thing Bandofmothers - that REALLY drives me insane.

Sometimes I feel that my buggy must have the same powers as Harry Potter's invisibility cloak - (i.e. I stand behind it and everyone behaves like I'm not there!! )

Can I ask why you are always late? My Dh's whole family are never on time. I mean like they are usually more than 15 minutes late. Usually 45 minutes. Why do people do this. Explain it to me?

At work when people say " i'm busy"
inferring that their time is more important than mine.

HOW FUCKING RUDE - fuckers.

Oh and the B*stards who can't wait 30 seconds for me to open the door and get my DS out of the back of the car on the road where we live (where we have to park on the street)..even though the traffic lights are on red at the end of the road anyway!!

Well don't worry I'm sure you aren't as bad as DH's family and I'm sure I'd love you.

oooh i know what else, why does everyone have a sudden urge to go to the loo the second you're serving a meal??

My next-door neighbours smoking outside their back door (outside my bedroom window) when I'm in bed.

I mean if you don't want your sodding house smelling of fag smoke what makes you think I want mine to....or should I always keep my windows shut you selfish f*ckers?

I really had to restrain myself from going round and making a scene when DS' moses basket was in our room, I can tell you!

LOL, Custy.

That's my DH.

Tosser.

Keeplaughing atm that is me! Then again I have an urge to go to the loo every five minutes anyway so law of averages says it'll happen when dh is serving tea on quite a few occasions!

• my next door neighbour reversing over my drive because he is too fucking lazy to do it properly on his own drive (loads of room, but rather than turning tightly and going, he just drives straight back into my drive).

• my next door neighbour still having a broken down 4x4 parked on their drive despite it being dead for at least 6 months now (if he moved the bloody thing he would find it even less necessary to drive all over my farking drive).

I see a pattern emerging...

DH is the 'busy' one, BTW.

Nodding vigorously in agreement about the lorries overtaking bit.

Just lorries in general, and lorry drivers. Maybe because my late FIL was one, and I didn't think much of him. I think even less of him now he has died and everyone seems to remember him as a great bloke, when he was actually a selfish bastard who practically ruined the lives of his family (butnow they conveniently forget that). He died 2 and a half years ago, and I think must now be in line for a sainthood. Now that is something I do get very worked up about.

bored with..god that's a long nickname mossi. Pregnant women (and small children)completely excused from this irritation (plus many other things, except not indicating ) it's when you give adults a five minute warning that dinner's nearly ready and then only go when you say its now ready grrr

Keeplaughing just call me Mossy it's okay!!!!

When I am at a junction waiting to pull out and someone beeps me because they think I am taking too long. FFS - I am the person who can see what is coming and it is my life on the line if I pull out so I am not going to pull out just becaue you are in a hurry. It makes me want to scream 'shut the fk up you fing w**er' - Very witty and adult I know [grin. In fact one time I got out of the car and shouted at the guy who had done it.

People driving too close to me - In fact dh said the other day that he remembered one time in the early days of our relationship when I was driving him somewhere I started muttering and shouting 'Oh yes why not get right up my backside - I just love that'

He was a bit bemused to say the least until he realised what I was taliking about

Custardo, you know you're not supposed to move your car away from the pump until you've paid? They don't release the pump for the next person to use anyway, until previous person has paid.

Dog shit on pavement / road makes me want to will the dog owner to appear in front of me so I can make them eat it.

Phew Mossy, that's better. How long you waiting, or is you name out of date now?? (have only got onto mumsnet recently) lol lazycow that is hilarious.
