What irrationally annoys you that has no effect on you whatsoever

[Squatternutbosh123]

I'm sitting reading a book in the front room watching the neighbour close just 1 of his double gates after driving off his drive. When he comes in layer he'll then have to stop the car, get out, open gate etc. He can be out anything from 5 minutes to all day but does this every time.

Other neighbour leaves his bins at the front of the house rather than putting them down the side of the house. Same neighbour has 4 people who drive living in the house, yet mum always comes and goes in taxis, sometimes with her grandkids, shopping etc. when they are home.

My mum drives her car right up to her back gate then has to walk around the car to go through gate. She then moans that she gets wet doing this when it's raining, but then won't leave a gap at the front of the car!

None of these things affect me so whyyyyyyyyy do they annoy me so much.

I should get a life

Putative professionals on the radio or box who start every sentence with So. Please stop it!

The Liberal Democrat’s.

Less. Fewer. Aaargh.

People using the phrase ‘our little family’. Doesn’t actually affect me at all but makes my skin crawl anyway.

There's a podcast I listen to and the narrator sometimes double pronounces/ mispronounces things - for example he'll say 'anand' instead of 'and'

I really enjoy the podcast but my ears are now tuned to this annoying little thing and it's almost all I hear now!

People who use expressions like “little man” and “hubbie” or “holibags”

Shop workers who put all the change in your hand, starting with the note and then the coins piled on top. You have a bag in your other hand. RAGE

There are so many podcast things that annoy me! Rambling interruptions all about the presenters personal life really grate. As does self-conscious over-hilarity.

I hate newsreaders and presenters saying " thank you very much ...Indeed" with indeed emphasised. It sounds smarmy, thank you on its own would suffice.

I keep seeing/hearing the phrase "living our best life" at the moment. It sounds so smug and really grates on me.

Can I get a coffee.

OOH another thing that annoys me is the presenters on Sunday Brunch and how little they seem to care about their guests.

I watched an episode once where a man was on with his alpacas, talking about why he breeds them and the uses for their wool etc. The presenters stood there looking bemused and were then giggling when the poor man was explaining how lovely they are as animals. What is the point in inviting people on the show if you're going to make them feel like idiots?!

People who sniff rather than use a handkerchief or even tissue.

When there's multiple (and pointless) hashtags on social media posts ...#makingmemories #lovemyfamily #blessed #familyof3 #unconditionallove x10000 - just post your photo and be done with it!

Misuse of unorganised and disorganised gets me every time. I have no idea why as it really doesn't matter!

People who call their baby 'my little lady/man'

People who put their Christmas decorations up in November

People who bite their nails

People who put a rogue apostrophe in, say, The Liberal Democrats.

The people opposite me who park on the road rather than their drive (why?!!!) I have my own drive and they don’t obstruct me in any way but it drives me irrationally crazy!

People who refer to themselves as mummy or daddy to their pets.

Someone I know uses # to spell out the word.
E.g - #f#a#m#i#l#y, it really bugs me and takes more time than just typing #family

my mother

Less/fewer.

Misplaced apostrophes.

People who let their dogs crap on the grass across from my house. They always pick it up but kids play on the grass as it’s near the park, all cartwheels and handstands. Not my DD, she can’t do those.

When adverts say something is new and improved. Can’t be both.

DD biting her nails. They’re not my nails. Why do I care?

People who put a rogue apostrophe in, say, The Liberal Democrats.

😂😂

People who don’t watch Coronation Street.

There's a wheelie bin a couple of streets down from me that the owner has (for some reason) painted bright pink. It has absolutely no impact on my life but I'll be damned if I don't let out a little huff every time I drive past

@PersonaNonGarter i wonder if we listen to the same podcasts? I have one that used to be around 40 mins; i listened to an episode yesterday that was TWO HOURS long. There was at least 45 minutes just of them chattering to eachother. I do like them but it's very self indulgent.
