I'll start:

I never clean out the cats' litter trays (in spite of the fact that I was the one who wanted the cats in the first place) and I never take my turn at washing up.

I switch the heating on if I feel even the tiniest bit cold. I also sleep with the windows open even when the heating's on as I like fresh air. It gives him silent rage.

I leave windows and the back doors open when I go out.

I have conversations with everyone I meet so a 15 minute dog walk takes an hour. I also stop to pet every dog I meet, and if there's a cat I'll have a little fuss of that, too.

I tell stories about our dogs like they're people.

I rewatch films I love (he hates watching anything more than once, I can-and do- recite the words to A Few Good Men by heart every time it's on tv).

I refuse to listen to his stories about work.

I diffuse awkward and uncomfortable conversations with inappropriate comments.

In short I've no idea how on earth I convinced the poor man to marry me. I'm a bit of a knob.

I use a chopstick instead of a teaspoon to "wring" the teabag out when making a cuppa. Drives DP doolally.

I never close things properly, lids on jars, tops on bottles, wardrobe doors, or push drawers in properly.
I find it mildly amusing to see how irritated this makes DH.

I leave the fluff from the tumble dryer on the side...

Drives him nuts

@FudgeBrownie2019 but if you closed the window you wouldn't need the heating on!!!! Such a waste of resources and money I'd not silently fume at you if I was your oh you'd never have peace again when doing it lol
