To ask you to share your weird, irrational, petty hatreds?

[WickedWitchInTheCupboard]

I'll start...

It's incredibly immature and irrational but there is a certain (fairly common) name I cannot stand purely because it's the name of both a girl who bullied me when I was young and DHs ex, who is difficult.

I literally hate any mention of this name and automatically dislike anyone with it (ok, not really but in my head for a few moments I do!).

Another less petty but more bizarre one is that I HATE the tops of bottle caps scraping on my nails. It makes me want to be sick. Shuddering thinking about it right now!

Anyone else got any weird/petty/irrational dislikes?

People who clap along in time to music like fucking performing seals.

This! So much. My poor husband has to put up with me shouting at the TV "you don't clap every beat morons" on a regular basis (I love Strictly but think they should ban the audience for this reason alone).

Whistling
Calling potatoes 'spuds'
Calling pudding 'pud'
Cheryl Cole
Holly Willoughby

People who write "breath" when they mean "breathE".

Also: people who say "batter an eyelid". You BAT your eyelids/eyelashes. Battering is something entirely different!

People who don't indicate until right before they turn, even if they can see you sitting waiting for them to pass and by indicating could signal that you could go sooner.

People saying "I seen/I done"
Draw instead of drawer
When I'm changing the beds and the duvet doesn't go right up to the top of the cover and leaves an empty bit, despite lots of shaking

Clapping on every beat of the bar.

Asymmetric hems.

People who say 'soz' for sorry.

Warbly whispery wafty singing. Especially warbly whispery wafty versions of perfectly normal songs.

@YouBelongHere yes me too! everyone thinks I'm odd, but people eating crisps make me sick or angry or both!

Having dry feet - I have to moisturise them night and morning!
People biting crisps without closing their mouths first.
Wooden ice lolly sticks. Shudder.
Rufus Hound. He's a friend of a friend so he's probably really nice but I just find him so irrationally irritating.
"Could of" and "should of". I think being a grammar pedant is totally crass and I'd never do it but "of" instead of "have" makes me twitch silently.

Adults that are obsessed with Disney.
How loud my partner sneezes/coughs - surely it takes more effort!?
People that say "gonna go cinema/gym/park" instead of go to the cinema/gym/park.
Flossing - as in the stupid dance!

So so many.

People who walk slowly in front of me. Only made worse if the slow person is wearing heels because I then get the rage thinking they would be able to walk much faster if they wore appropriate footwear.

Whistling, magnified if someone is enough of a bastard to whistle whilst I'm sat in a car with them.

Wind chimes. Just why? Only inconsiderate twats have wind chimes.

I also hate having long nails, it just feels wrong.

People who say 'my.....whatever' e.g. 'I like my music', 'I like my cheese'.

People who can't get to the point. I die a little inside when information that could have been conveyed in one sentence takes half an hour.

Extraneous information - unless there is something exceptional about it, I don't need to know what you've eaten, where you've parked or illnesses that people I've never met are suffering from.

I'm not very tolerant.

Olivia Colman.
I'm sure she's lovely but just seeing her face everywhere.....

And in a similar vein to people who say "need gone" are those who say "I went town" or "I went shop". One syllable of your entire life that has saved you. ONE.

Ok, maybe two syllables.

See how cross it got me just thinking about it!

Oh so many here!

Adults Who Are Obsessed with Disney ✔️
Of instead of HAVE I nearly responded to a post with : HAVE HAVE HAVE HAVE HAVE but knew I would get reported
Swimming Pool Changing Room Floors - Guess The Piss

And Receipts all Receipts should be opt IN not Opt Out and then I wouldn't have a million receipts for things clogging up my handbag like take out coffee, had the receipt longer than I had the coffee, it's a needless fucking waste of paper - fine if you've bought clothing or expensive items if I've just bought a pint of milk fuck off with your bit of paper!

People and by people I mean dh laughing like an asthmatic hyena whenever he let's out a silent but deadly fart and waits for me to "notice". As if the heaving shoulders and snorts don't give it away. He has also corrupted the kids. Ds came up to me and said gravely "Mum you're not going to want to hear this..." then letting rip.

When one hand is wet and the other isn't and I have to dry the wet hand on a towel. The difference in texture of the towel between the wet hand and dry hand gives me rage so I always have to wet the second hand before I dry. Irrational and I have no idea where it came from.

And now I'm going to have to do the same!

Whoever said wind chimes, yes!!
My next door neighbor has wind chimes made from every material imaginable. Wooden ones, crystal ones, metal ones, plastic ones - and yet they all make the same irritating clunking noise at the slightest breeze

The word ‘supper’
People who say ‘chuck’ instead of ‘chicken’
Non laugh related Snorting
Anything with saltanas in or on!
Bananas and anyone eating a banana
Fearne Cotton

People who call squash "juice", it's not fucking juice, it's never seen a piece of fruit in its life.
Asking a question with a yes/no answer and getting a fucking monologue, one word is all I wanted!

-People eating with their mouthes open .
-When my bag strap snags my hair or when I accidentally close just one strand of hair in the car window.
-People sitting outside my house with their engines running for a stupidly long amount of time or sit there talking on the cars’ hands free so I can hear their WHOLE conversation even with my windows shut.
-Selfies
-People who walk down the street with their loudspeaker on ,speaking (shouting) into the bottom of their phones .
-People who take photos of their food

• People who mix up ‘your ‘and ‘You’re’ which includes all of dh’s Family .

And ..breathe..

Nick Knowles and Michael Macintyre.

Although I'm not convinced that's irrational.

Weird ways of talking/describing things. Such as Doggo and pupper instead of Dog.

Spilling tea? Got the receipts? Something to do with gossip and proving stuff. I blame Buzzfeed.
A Pinch of Nom. I nearly stabbed myself in the eye when I saw that cookery page.
Items priced like this 9.5 instead of this £9.50 in wanky hipster places AND hotel chains now.

People who think everyone else is interested in every aspect of their lives.
I’m in a local slimming group and it can be useful when people post their recipes etc. But there’s one person who posts constantly, stuff like, “Just walked into town!!!” with about eight photos of different shop fronts, half of which are gurning selfies. Then the photos of what they’ve bought.
Nobody gives a fuck about your tedious morning, Karen.

Glasses (drinking kind) which haven’t been washed properly.
Noisy eaters / people eating with their mouths open.

bAd gramer and Poor speling

Those bitches who swim up and down the pool having a chat whilst disturbing all the people who were already swimming when they got in.

People touching my face. Even my DH. I just hate it.

People who say and type MacDonalds instead of McDonald's.
