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

Yes I agree about public transport makeup. Makes absolutely no difference to my life but I hate it.

Also, there’s a woman on my FB who is constantly posting very detailed info about hers and her family’s various illnesses and injuries. They’re always at bloody A&E or on some cocktail or antibiotics and other prescription drugs.

I could very easily unfriend and block her, instead I choose to read it and get wound up

Every time the BBC news reader says 6 a.m. in the morning.

"Ex-pats". They're EXPATRIATES, NOT FORMER PATS.

My MLM 'friends' who have never once asked me personally to buy anything. Not close enough to actually tell them my concerns unless they ask, close enough that I can't delete them. I've unfollowed before but then I just end up checking their page to see if they've posted anything not-MLM related or given it up.

Teenagers who drive mopeds!

When posters on here refer to Kate (Middleton) as ‘Catherine’, or ‘Duchess Kate’.

It seems terribly forelock tugging.

Boastful Birthday and Anniversary posts purely to showcase the Rolex/Mulberry handbag.

Another Facebook one - people who document every single trip/day out/walk. Just live your life sometimes without the photo diary please.

People who say their pets are their kids or post pictures on FB of said pets with comments like "Daddy gave me some extra chicken because I was so cute this morning."

Or dog-speak on FB. I call it stupid speak.

My neighbour opposites house.

They’ve recently had a small extension and the front door is no longer in the middle of the house and they’ve added a window which doesn’t match the rest and doesn’t line up properly.

The uneven-ness is driving me potty

Jackets with faux fur lining around the hood. So ugly.

My son's blackheads

The way my husband's dressing gown belt sits on his arse rather than his waist.

People using comfort words (like, basically, obviously etc.)
People that refer to their partner, husband or wife as hubby, hubster, wifey, other half, better half or similar. Or worse, refer to them as ‘my world’
People hashtagging the shit out of Instagram posts.
People calling tattoos ‘tats’ or ‘ink’
‘Making memories’
Ugg boots
People that take videos of themselves just sitting there and pouting or singing, and posts them on social media (as if selfies aren’t bad enough’
Perfectly trimmed beards/facial hair
Referring to anything as cheeky ‘cheeky drink’
Wine o’clock
Vino
Piercing babies ears

The way my husband's dressing gown belt sits on his arse rather than his waist.

I don't even know your husband and now I'm irrationally annoyed too

I'm back, it's ass though Pandora's box is opened

People that cannot read a council calendar so have their bins out even though the two bank holidays have skewed the schedule.

People at work that have a "work mum" or "work dad". This is a real grater and I have to walk away.

Anyone on social media that posts "subliminal" messages, when what they really want to do is tell a specific person they think they're being unfair/unreasonable/unkind. I have a friend doing this on FB at the moment. I know exactly why she's doing it and it's starting to get on my nerves in a way that won't end well.

Threads that say 'we' as in "What do we think of this' and there'll rarely be much of an opinion or thought in the OP

Get your own opinion

People (always on reality type shows like Come Dine or Place in the Sun) who muddle up sayings, proverbs. Once a I started to notice it, I see it all the time! Someone just mentioned rat up a drainpipe, they will say like a bird up a drainpipe, or a rat has 9 lives, and I’m totally unaffected but strangely annoyed that they get it wrong!!!!!

Catniss - People who message you when you're trying to sell something on FB "whats the lowest you will take"

When I'm selling books at fairs, someone will pick one priced at £10 and ask "what's your best price", I reply "£15" just to see their face as they try to work it out.

People who expect others to do their thinking for them.
E.g our local facebook page has recently had loads of people posting things like. "Anything Christmassy going on today for a 5 year old?". Am so tempted to reply No, in our fair sized city on 15th December there is literally not one kid friendly event happening. Or Let me Google that for you.

Ed you know she's not been Kate Middleton for some time and that her name actually is Catherine?

The Fail for persistently calling the Duchesses of Cambridge, Sussex and Cornwall by their pre-married surnames eg Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, Camilla Parker-Bowles when they've publicly announced they've changed them.

University Challenge: Jeremy Paxman's insistence on saying Quixote as "cwik sot" Even when the contestant answers with the correct pronunciation he repeats his own way of saying it.
It has no bearing on my life whatsoever😂

People who use the word ‘ickle’ instead of little . It sounds so immature and needy.
Drives me insane. I also hate ‘hun’ but I’m guessing lots of people will be saying that as examples.

People who say or write 'text' when they're describing an action in the past (which should, therefore, be 'texted').

They say this on Coronation St all the time - e.g. "I text him yesterday and..."

It should be texted!

Those 'boomerang' video clips on social media. I don't need to see a repeat of you clinking your drinks together!

Oh I just remembered another one

People who say, "I didn't want to read and run".

It comes across to me as, "Ohhh I'm sooo very busy here but I'll treat you to my opinion before I dash off".

I know that's not what they mean, but that's the message I get in my head whenever I read it

omeone will pick one priced at £10 and ask "what's your best price"

They've been watching too many of those 'Put your money where your mouth is' programmes. It really annoys me the way the experts beat people down and down and down. Though often when it goes to auction the item doesn't make even that much
