What things make you irrationally angry? (Lighthearted)

[Pettyspaghetti]

Was washing my face this morning and that pissy little bit of water dripped down my arm and got my clothes wet, as it always bloody does. Got me thinking of how much it pisses me off every single day, but can’t seem to avoid it!
Other things that make me irrationally angry are stepping in something wet with socks on, sitting down with a cuppa and then realising I’ve forgotten to put sweetener in, and when the toast decides it wants to literally launch out of the toaster and land on the counter/floor

What little things fill you with the rage of a thousand suns?

The way my dog has a sixth sense of standing right in my way so i'm always tripping over him. Centre of the kitchen? Halfway up the stairs? Perfect!

How the same dog waits until i have mopped the floor to have a drink and dribble a bog old water trail right through.

Stop start traffic

People / groups of people who take up the whole pavement. AHHHHGGGH! You aren't the only people in the world (I live I very touristy city and there are constantly huge groups of tourists stood around taking up the whole pavement - you can literally stand there shouting "excuse me" for about 5 mins and they won't budge).
The actual bane of my liffeee!

Oh I've just thought of my worst one!
When the cashier hands you change NOTE FIRST with the change on top.
NO! I now have to awkwardly scrumple it all up in my hand.
Oh I'm angry just thinking about it.

Stupid stupid little fiddly bits to keep the toy in the bastard box. I'm want the toy out in not trying to break into fort Knox
Said toy has an age limit yet the bastard bits keeping the toy in CAN be chocked on.

My asking what do you want for tea not just tonight but AGAIN NAYBE AT SOME POINT IN THE REST OF YOUR LIFE just so I can plan a shopping list.

Dh not using the loo brush
Ds2 questioning every single thing I've done for the past 6 weeks including running commentry
"Are you going to the toilet mom"
"Are you washing up after you've been to the toilet, your collecting the cups from the lounge" omg I love him but I need to not hear him for a bit.

People standing RIGHT behind you on shopping escalators then looking shocked that you have stepped back onto their foot so you can actually push your trolley off.

Roadworks forever and no reason when 2 minutes up the road an island is desperately needed.

Primark not delivering meaning I have to go shopping

People typing "draws" instead of "drawers". As in "chester draws"

• People who offer or accept to do something, then make out that they're 'fantastic' for changing their plans etc to accommodate, then moan about how their plans were 'ruined' on SM ! Just. say. NO!

• Other drivers - particularly those who don't use indicators, don't drive within speed limit (I mean dawdling at 30mph on a 60mph carriageway in clear conditions), don't drive to the conditions of the road, those who don't acknowledge your courtesy by letting them past etc. Argh - I have considered giving up driving!

• My car, it just infuriates me every time I have to drive it. No other reason than it's just really low, and powerful and fast. I'm only 5'3" and I'm practically horizontal driving it. I shouldn't moan about it as we were gifted the car and it has saved my bacon this month with work after my car died via head gasket failure :(

• DH or my DM telling me how to drive/how not to drive/I should be braking/taking my time/foot off the gas etc ........ neither of them drive!!

• Realising there's a bit of a theme on the driving/drivers and thinking I should give up driving

• Passwords that require 'at least one special character'

• Intermittent internet

• Noise, especially repetitive noises

There's a lot more, but I'd need my own thread :D

Ooh i remembered another!

Signs or notices in public places that have shitty grammar i'm looking at my GP surgery here especially a notice's meaning can totally change depending on where that little apostrophe or comma sits. Come on, do a basic check so it pissing makes sense 😡

• Other drivers - particularly those who don't use indicators, don't drive within speed limit (I mean dawdling at 30mph on a 60mph carriageway in clear conditions), don't drive to the conditions of the road, those who don't acknowledge your courtesy by letting them past etc. Argh - I have considered giving up driving!

My own grammatical mistakes - my tired brain won't let me reword that without it sounding stupid........ wrong choice of words.

Squeeze your flannel out first?

Tk maxx labels

Why can't plugs have the lead all coming out the same side, say all coming out the top. I've wasted minutes of my life trying to put a plug in the socket before realising the bastard lead isn't coming out where it should.

Typical Mumsnet. 90% of this thread is about people. Why are you all so angry with people?

Anyone following me into my tiny kitchen.

My tiny kitchen.

Knocking things over with my big tits in my tiny kitchen.

Drivers who have their rear fog lights on at night but there is no fog also I get the people chatting in aisles and doorways etc and blocking your way but around us they take it to another level and chat to each other in their cars when they meet think rural area. My Dsis was once behind a car doing this but the pair were in no hurry to end their conversation so she tooted her horn and got some filthy looks from the driver coming the opposite way.

Some TV ads give me the rage. At the moment it the Halifax ones ripping off classic movies. First Wizard of Oz of my favs, and now Ghostbusters. Why just fucking why. These marketing people need a good slap. Sorry. Rant over

When I’m in a hurry or a bad mood - which seems to be all the time since having kids! - just - people (to quote Charlie Brooker: “I don’t get people. What’s their appeal precisely? They waddle around with their haircuts on, cluttering the pavement like gormless, farting skittles. They’re awful.”).

When my autocorrect changes words.

When my autocorrect doesn’t change words and I look back and there’s a string of gobbledegook.

When cyclists hold a long string of traffic up by pedalling at about 5mph.

When people crawl along in the overtaking lanes.

Equally when people drive right up your exhaust pipe. Braking distances are essential!

When pubs serve flat fizzy drinks.

When my hair sticks to my lipgloss. Instant rage.

When I stab myself a bit with my mascara wand, leaving a big blob of mascara all over my newly applied eye shadow or foundation.

When my stupid body is all sneezy and itchy and allergic to perfectly normal things like cats and pollen.

Oh god, ‘yourself’ and ‘myself’ annoy me too. I went for afternoon tea at a hotel that was trying to be fancy, and the waitress kept saying ‘and for yourself we have...’ to everyone at the table. Arrrgh!

I hate wasps too but that may not be irrational as I got stung on the face a few weeks ago. The bastard just flew at me and stung me in the corner of my eye.

People who fuck about all day at work doing nothing, then go on about how they stayed late to get something done. Be more efficient and you wouldn’t need to!!!

People who shuffle. Pick your bloody feet up!

Getting lifts now I have a pram to push. I used to be a march up the stairs/escalator person, now I have to find the lift, wait for it, wait for the lazy feckers who could easily take the stairs to get in/out and then slowly get to the floor I need via several I didn’t. Why anyone would get a lift when they’re perfectly able-bodied, I do not know!

Being wide awake long after the baby has gone back to sleep following a night feed....hence the 3am posting!

SnowBambino yes to the lifts! Stop cluttering up the lifts when the escalator is right next to it, or, god forbid, use the stairs. And do not then look at me like you’ve done me a favour when I squeeze the pram into a micro space. Argggg

When people with 12 year olds use parent and child spaces. Yes technically you can, but use some common sense!

Skittles I once found a sock in the leg of DD's onesie after I'd dried it and was giving it to her to put on.

Henry DM does that. Standing in the back doorway. "Mum, I need to get out to get DD's onesie off the line." Just fucking sit down, will you?!

Washing on the basket instead of in it.

Iooselipssinkships Audi drivers for me too! Shame, because there's some Audis I really like but I'd never buy one because I might become one of ~them~

Volvos too, to a lesser degree. Oh, and drivers of black cars.

People on holiday who whack up the parasol first thing then don't sit in the shade it provides! Then encroach on my sunbathing space to avoid being in said shade....What's the fucking point.

Inconsiderate plane passengers, eating smelly food, spilling over their allocated space manspreading etc

I could go on, all holiday based! Can you tell I'm missing the sun!

Washing on the basket instead of in it.

Agreed, @Whateveryoureckon, this one comes under "thing should never be on top of a lid or in front of a door or hatch".

Me: What would you like for dinner tonight?
DH: Whatever you want, I don’t mind.
Me: Mexican?
DH: Nah.
Me: Lasagne?
DH: No.
Me: Chicken salad?
DH: No.
Me: Divorce papers?
DH: ...

It boils my piss, to no end.

Also people who don’t chew with their mouths closed. And then talk.
