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

I'm surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet perhaps it's just me that's irrationally annoyed but the use of 'So' at the beginning of sentences; both spoken and written. Drives me and DH nuts. Prevalent in the under 35's but now creeping in with the older generation too and see it all the time on social media.

Hanging up a coat so the inside lining is showing, rather than the outside surface

Drawers that haven't been closed completely

Curtains that have a gap at the top when closed

Finishing off a bag of crisps by raising the packet high and tipping the crumbs into the open gob below

Liverpool has PURPLE wheelie bins - wrong, just so very wrong

Kitchens and bathrooms in adverts - nobody has a kitchen or bathroom that size, NOBODY. So show us some that fit into average kitchens or tiny bathrooms. (I am not in the market for a new kitchen or bathroom.)

Bags of donations left outside closed charity shops. Especially when there are signs up asking that people not do this.

Inside I am seething like the Hulk

My neighbours take ages to put their bins back after collection day and the other neighbour never comes to get her parcels , we have one sitting here since last Thursday but I’m not taking it round ... again !

People who say uber instead of super/ very.
People with no kids who have a spare car. One person should have one car. No need for a SUV plus convertible when there is only one of you. And you don't own the road in front of your house unless it's cordoned off and has your house number painted on it.
And the assumption because something is important to you, that I should give a shiny shit about it. I don't.
Also, asdas, mataland, primarni/ primarche. It's asda, matalan, primark.

I think someone did mention it at the beginning of this thread. Very annoying and you’re right, it’s been creeping in more and more. There’s been a rash of So interviewees on R4. A few years ago someone had a campaign to stamp it out(might have been the Economist I think). They obviously failed.

Hun 1: thanks everyone, I went next door to Tesco’s at 3.30pm and it was really quiet if that is helpful information for anyone for tomorrow.

I like it!

This ad always gave me the creeps

That Werthers advert has spoiled the rest of my 2018. Grim.

People who say pacifically instead of specifically

A couple of nights ago I heard one of the guests on Sky Press Preview saying 'irregardless'

People on TV who say "smashed it" winds me right up. Gemma Collins's face I can't stand her face

@PumpkinKitty82 i can beat that, i got a parcel for a neighbour a few doors down, its been in my dining room since beginning of September

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

The price that is on the fucking photo you knob.^

Correct response: "What's the most you will offer (you knob)?"

@JorahsMistress that would send me up the wall .. why order something and then not care if you get it or not ?
Bizarre

UNLEASH you have just reminded me, I hate anything sticking out of a drawer or it not being closed properly.
Yes to the poster who said pascifically, my mum said that the other day n I thought wth! Resisted the urge to correct her though.
And agree with the poster who hates 'so..' at the beginning of a sentence. It's another
variant of yes or no or so and none of those seem correct

Precisely @PumpkinKitty82 i tried going round there many times but getting no response, despite them definitely being in, ive even posted a couple of notes through the door, the courier definitely left his own back in September as i saw him post it, i rang the courier company but they wasn't interested, im going to give it another couple of months and donate to a charity

My NDM’s car, well ex-ex car, who gets a new car then leaves the old one on a communal parking space for years, they are now on car no3, at least car no2 has gone. Drives me insane everyday when I park next to it, the seats are covered in mould.

People who strip off like it’s high summer at the first hint of warmth in the early SPRING sunshine.

Vaguebooking.

I live in a terraced house with a tiny wall separating my front path from my neighbours front path. I hate it when visitors to my house step over the wall and go out through my neighbours gate just because the neighbours gate is always propped open. It makes me so irrationally annoyed.

I can't stand being around people who are trying to take photos of other people, the constant commentary "Look over here" "smile" "no don't smile like that" found it excruciating over Christmas.

People who are obsessed with their pets and treat them like children. Dressing them up, talking to them like babies, buying them Christmas presents.

People saying gifted instead of gave.

As in "my great uncle Dave gifted us a generous sum of money allowing us to purchase our property".

Fuck off. It might be grammatically correct, who knows, but you sound like a twat.

People who ding the bell more than once on the bus. The driver is already stopping! It doesn't need to be dinged for EVERY PERSON getting off the bus! Aaargh

I do start sentences with 'so' though and don't know how to stop, despite hating it as I do it

Leggings. Just why?

People who ask me for a round of 74 drinks and then ask for a Guinness last, then huff because it takes ages to pour/settle/top, over and over all damned night, and ask me how much the massive round comes to while I'm still doing it and have been nowhere near the till yet. Do I look like Carol fucking Vorderman?!

Still not as bad as the knobheads who carry on like a toddler because they have to wait 'half an hour' a few minutes to get served because ya know, I'm obviously giving out life saving treatment and someone WILL die if they don't get alcohol immediately and then wander off to go to the loo, find out what Dave wants, get their money etc therefore holding me up more that holds everyone else up and ensuring I get shouted at even more and we have more tantrums.

Waving £20 notes at me, I have a till full dickhead, yours isn't special, well it might be when I ram it up your nose.

////And Breathe////

So looking forward to working tonight 🤐🤣

I've been thinking that about all the leggings about recently. But I know it affects me not in the slightest. Except it harder to find non skintight options in the shops.

"Off to Tescos/Asdas."

Men who wear dress / smart shoes with regular or straight cut jeans.

I think a few youngwomen around here got fablettics for Christmas they are cutting about town in gym clothes i don't gettit
