What irritates and annoys you the most? (AIBU)

[Dotty1970]

Hi,
I know the things that irritate the f*ck out of me are sometimes over the top so just expressing them here to see what irritates others.

People that stand really close to me in queues... They aren't going to get served any faster so get out of my fu king personal space.
*Obviously all the driving ones... Tailgaters, sitting in the middle lane on a motorway, overtaking dangerously, not putting their hand up when I've let them out, parking like a dick and not in the middle of a space so I can't open my car doors, arrogance (drivers of BMW's, some AUDI's and 4x4's (range rovers in particularly), lorry drivers, white van drivers and really really slow drivers.
*People who don't say thankyou when I've held a door open.
*People who bang into me or brush past me in a shop.
*Arrogant people.
*Rude people.
*People that lick arse.
*Two faced people.
*People who say "I tell the truth, I speak my mind and I say it like it is" when they clearly don't.
*People from Yorkshire always have to tell you for example "I'm from Yorkshire and we say it how it is".
People who pout and don't realise they look like a absolute prck.
*People who post loads of selfies... Get over yourself and stop fishing for compliments.
*People who are your 'friend' on Facebook but don't say hi in the street.
Bragging on social media of how great your life is... No one really gives a sht.
People who touch my hair or face.
People who say they don't want any chips for example but then try to take 'just the one' chip off you....get your fucking own, I don't give a sht whether your on a diet.
*People who are obsessed with what I'm eating or whether I've been 'naughty' and had a chip or cake for example.
*People who flex their muscles in the mirror and take pictures of themselves at the gym.
*My neighbours.
*Cats.

There are so many more but massive boring posts are on the list so I'd better stop now....

Until I saw "cats" I was willing to participate, but now no, sorry :) You've lost me.

Anyone you do like?!

People who don't like cats
People who sit next to me on public transport and loudly chew gum. I spend the entire journey planning their slow, painful demise.

Not cats. They are lovely
All the other things I can relate to especially the stupid duck face tits out selfies. Just grow up and get some self respect.
Also people who step out in front of my car when there's a bloody crossing 1 minute down the road.
Joggers who run at speed right behind you expecting you to jump out of the way.
People who tell you how to raise your children like "in my day he d get a smacked bottom for that".
People who wear earphones everywhere and don't hear traffic/someone talking to them
Loud music on phones on bus or train.
People who talk on speakerphone when there is no need so you hear the whole boring conversation.
People who ignore shop assistants coz they are chatting on the phone.

People who interrupt
People who hate cats

The word 'laptop' at the moment. Too snappy, too many 'p' s.

My husband.

People who use anger as a way of deflecting your valid criticism of their infringement of your space/rights.

I.e “You’ve parked on my actual driveway, I need to get to work, could you please move to a legal place to park?”

“I’ll only be two minutes”.

“No it’s my driveway, I need to move now to get to work”.

“Fuck off you prick”.

This type of exchange happens more and more in Britain and I swear the entitlement factor is getting worse

People in their 30s/40s posting heavily filtered selfies of themselves on Facebook and getting loads of “you look lovely hun” comments when you know they’re dog rough in RL.

I'm with you OP, especially about the cats

Also people that stop in entrances to shops. It gives me the rage!

People who are always late... this is the thing that annoys me most. People who think their time is more important than yours and can't be bothered to turn up on time.
People who seem to coast through life and let everyone know about it
People who like to brag about how much money they earn
People who keep asking me when I'll have another child... f*$k off and mind your own business

Dithering, any kind of dithering or fannying!

People who talk to me when I've got my earphones in.

Couples who bicker/argue in front of you....awkward, rude and bloody well annoying.

People who stand too close to me.

When people (DH and DD's) tap me, fucking constantly, on the arm while I'm working at my desk concentrating on my course work. Gives me the bloody rage, especially when they always ask a stupid question like where the salt and pepper is. It's in the same fucking place it always is!

Brilliant list Dotty 1970, cheered me up now end!!!

As I am content to adopt your list, may I just add cyclists and horse riders that don't say thank you, (even with a nod) when you've made a huge effort to slow to a crawl and give them half a mile of space (I am a horse owner BTW!) and also when those same snotty horse owners are towing their horse boxes, cause a tail back for miles and won't bloody well pull over!

People who justify never letting their kids have any independence by saying 'But it's so unsafe/there's so many nutters around these days!' This is not true and the biggest risk you expose your kids to statistically is taking them somewhere in a car.

Following from this, people who report parents or use child protection language like 'neglect' around parents just because they made a parenting decision that they wouldn't

People who cycle on the pavement.
People who think they can baffle me with word salad.
People who don’t say please and thank you.
People who try to get on the bus, before you’ve got off the bus.
People who think it’s fine to just dump their rubbish and let someone else deal with it.
People who sit on the bus chatting between themselves, completely ignoring their babies and toddlers screaming blue murder for attention.

People who fly down the wrong lane on traffic then expect to be let in right at the end.

Also the people who have so little awareness of what’s going on that they happily let these people in, sometimes 2 or 3 at a time. I think they’re the worse tbh as if they didn’t let them in, people would stop doing it.

People who don't let me in when I am lost/clueless in a new place and go down the wrong lane

People who wear headphones or earphones so they are unaware of their surroundings and in my way.

People who stand so close to me at a cash machine I have to say step back please.

People who don't pick up dog poo.

People who say "literally" when they don't literally mean it.

I agree with most of your list, but the last two - my neighbours are (mainly) good, so I'm not irritated by them. I haven't met your neighbours so don't know if they will irritate me, I will take you at your word for that And cats, can't agree with you on that one.

People who you don't see for hours after school because they are studying/doing homework watching YouTube/playing Minecraft and within seconds of you going on the phone or to the toilet are buzzing around you demanding chocolate biscuits and crisps asking nicely for a piece of fruit and a rice cake etc etc etc.

Yes, I am talking about you darling 8 year old son.

Everything at the moment apart from vodka and cranberry. 🥃

People standing close to me in queues irritates me beyond fucking words. Piss off fucking space invader.

Also fucking school entitled mothers in their droves. I am one but I believe I do not act how they do; bending down and stopping to hand darling snowflake something to eat when everyone else is bustling out of the school gates at the end of the day. It causes chaos.
If you must, wait until you get away from the gates. Better still, do it when you get home. Snowflake won’t starve and you will have the chance to wash the nasty germs off his hands that he has accumulated throughout the day too.

Which leads me onto my next point.

Mothers that send their kids in with sickness bugs. Before being symptom free for 48 hours . Stop. Being. So . Fucking. Selfish.
It’s because of these arseholes, my son became severely unwell and was rushed to hospital, resulting in nearly three weeks off school.
Don’t fucking do it. It’s disgusting parenting.

Mothers that congregate outside the school gates in everybody’s way. Talking utter bollocks. Fuck off and move elsewhere.

That’s all for now but will come back when I think of anything else.

I didn’t read the full list. It appears just to boil down to “people annoy me” (and cats apparently)

Generally I’m not annoyed by people. The kinds of things which annoy me are traffic queues when i’m in a hurry. Wasps which won’t leave me alone. Having itchy feet or ears when i’m trying to sleep.

People who don't like cats.

HTH.

Good list op.

Can I add people who eat tacos or other smelly food in the cinema, or who loudly rustle sweet papers or suck up every last drop of their drink through a straw.

People that stand really close to me in queues... They aren't going to get served any faster so get out of my fu king personal space.*

Put your hand on your hip.
Gaze at all the things around the room in absent minded fashion.
When queue moves forwards, you turn sideways to point sharp elbow at space invader.
You're welcome.

some AUDI's
Misplaced apostrophes annoy me.😝

think they’re the worse tbh as if they didn’t let them in, people would stop doing it.
I’m a let-er-in-er. I mostly see this with people skipping the queue for a busy motorway slip. People come down and slow to a crawl or stop in a busy inside lane with traffic racing up behind them and flying past them in the second lane. I’ll let them in because if they get hit, I could well be hit too. Plus, if they were badly hurt or killed I’d forever be guilty that my pedantry was part of the reason. People will always find a space whether someone actually lets them in or not, I’d rather make it safer for them to do it than have them cut in unsafely.
