What annoys you?

[username198817]

When people ask "what's a taxi number, what time does x restaurant close" etc on Facebook - Google it!

This has absolutely no impact on my life, but it annoys me so much! 😂

what annoys you?

Yes to the noisy cutlery! DH does it every dinner time & it makes me want to scream.

People who say "haitch" it's AITCH ffs!!!

Being ignored by my children when I ask them to do something.

People who don't just say if they don't want to do something but make up crap excuses that no-one believes.

When I do my shopping and the sales assistant asks how many bags I want I only know this when I have finished my packing. Drivers who don't put there hand up to acknowledge you as a thanks and pedestrians who don't put there hand up at zebra crossings thankyou for stopping. Just decency I think.

People who cut their fingernails in public. I seem to attract them on public transport, the clicking of the clippers and p'doing of the nail crocheting off make me want to vomit

@Dieu. Same. Just sat in corner meowing at the wall.

People who photoshop themselves into a different person, then post it. I think, fuck I just saw you in the chippy with your leggings stretching and your chins waving and here you are 20 mins later looking like Cindy Crawford circa 1998.

People's noisy unrestrained kids in restaurants, I have one and he can manage to make it through a meal without pissing everyone off.

Ricocheting not crocheting ffs.

When all the drunks spewing everywhere at work (A&E) ask if we have been busy

BMW drivers 🤬

Oh and to add to my earlier post the "haitch" pronunciation is only ever ok if you're Irish

Everything. Fucking EVERYTHING annoys me. I have no tolerance for anything or anyone whatsoever. It's exhausting being an arsehole.

@BornInGlasgow - totally with you. Everything and everyone.

Chewing, throat clearing, tutting, crunching (misphonia)
Loud people
Inconsiderate people
People who won't take no for an answer
People who get in my personal space
People who won't take a hint
People who spit
People walking too slow in front of me
Fuck it... People
Queuing
Toddlers in pubs
Door slammers
The whole dressing gown to the shop thing
Attention seekers on social media
Snapchat filters
"Like if you love your niece" Fuck off I'm 36
Cyclists
Self service checkouts
Slow service
Having to answer the phone
The word delicious
When they move things in supermarkets
Private registration plates. Twats.
Shit programmes making idiots famous
Cash machines that charge a fee

Pronouns have become an irritant lately.

Noisy people in the so-called "Quiet Coach" on the train. I hate them so much that I genuinely want to do them serious physical violence. There's an entire great long train to be noisy in - why get into the only supposedly quiet carriage and make lots of noise?

Argh argh argh! Only read the first page and I'm already twitching at some of these.

Will have to come when calmer and breeeeaathe throoouuugh thread also hide pointy objects.

Old people who demand respect because they're old.

People saying "Thankyou for your service" to military personnel. Nobody MADE them sign up nevermind all the slaughtering of innocent civilians

I feel I want to defend the 'what time does X shut?' posters on Facebook (although I don't think I've ever done it myself, not that I can remember anyway). I couldn't count the number of times that I've googled opening hours and then turned up somewhere to find the place shut because the details on the website are out of date. Maybe I should start asking about opening hours on Facebook.

I am massively irritated by bossy people. The sort of person who demands that you do X, Y and Z even though it has zero effect on them. My MIL and SIL, although generally nice people, are terrible for this. They will try to dictate about the most trivial things such as what we are 'allowed' to put in the dishwasher, what programme we choose on the washing machine, how much petrol we put in the car at a time, what furniture we have in our house. I just cannot imagine caring how someone else deals with the minutiae of everyday life, much less feel that anyone has to obey my orders.

I'm 8 months pregnant, so everything annoys me. I'm such a misanthrope at the moment

And people who claim they can barely make ends meet despite having a high salary, because they have high outgoings.

High outgoings are a choice. By all means make that choice, it's your money, I don't care how you spend it. But don't then complain about it and make snide comments about how other people have it so easy.

People who post really long replies on Mumsnet. The online equivalent of conversation hoggers.

The fact that HQ won't do any housekeeping and move threads to the relevant topic on MN. It may just as well be called "AIBUNet - get stuck in" or something like that.

Photos of models looking gorgeous but then standing with toes turned in. Is it supposed to be cute? Annoys me every time I see it.

People who park really close to the edge of a junction making pulling out extremely awkward, parents who are too lazy to walk to school and park wherever they choose, people chewing with their mouth open, Sunday drivers.

People who get to a doorway, and then stop to plan their next move.
People at the checkout who seem utterly shocked that they HAVE TO PAY!!!! Get your fucking purse/wallet/card ready - you've been here before, you know how it works, just get the fuck on with it. (I may get a little upset by this one.....)
People who drive everywhere at 40mph
People who don't understand statistics talking about important stuff as if they do, and getting it badly wrong.

This time of year when big fat pigeons feast on the trees down my road and shit all over the pavement. It’s hard to find a shit free area of pavement and I’m constantly worried I’m going to be shat on (it happened last year as I was returning home from work- right down my neck)

People trying to cross the road and theres a pedestrian crossing 2 steps to the left.
Smoking outside doors to shops
Chefs smoking outside cafes
Stopping dead on the top of esculaters

Crumbs on the kitchen side
People blocking the aisle in supermarkets
Plastic packaging
People who put the most boring things on social media e.g. photo of socks they are wearing

I could go on!
