What makes you scream inside? (slightly light-hearted)

[ThirdTimeUnlucky]

For me - DP cooks a decent meal then goes on and on about how good it was. I agree but then it escalates to 'aren't I a brilliant cook' or 'you've got to admit I'm great in the kitchen' etc, blah blah blah. Does my nut in. I cook all the time and am happy with a 'thank you, that was nice'. End of!
(((((scream)))))).
AIBU to silently scream and not heap on huge praise? I cook all the time and he cooks now and then, usually something a bit fancy, using every utensil in the house. Yeah it's nice but he's not going to get on Master Chef or anything. (((((still screaming))))
light hearted - I realise I'm being OTT
Anyone else agree or have any different silent scream issues?

My sil whenever she breathes in my direction. Smug and self-indulgent beyond

People walking on the cycle path who won't move when you bell to warn them of your presence. (Aware that I sound completely precious here)

@cologne4711 agree about impact as a verb, yeuch! Why are things always being impacted when we used to say affected? Also so much corporate speak like having to share info with colleagues. Why can't I just TELLthem?

Older people who talk about young people just needing to 'scrimp and save' a bit more to afford a house while showing absolutely no understanding of how much more difficult things are for people now, and many are barely spending anything on essentials but can literally never expect to own a property

Yy to ‘myself’ and ‘yourself’. CEO at work sent an all company email with ‘myself’ used incorrectly. He is young, confident and has the smooth management moves, but ‘tells’ like this make us cringe ....

Anyone who says “could of” instead of “could have”
Also sick if seeing “defiantly” when the writer means “definitely”

Sick of

feel your pain. Apparently emptying the recycling bins is Nobel Prize worthy. I got so fed up I got a pound shop medal and gave it to him the next time.

Love it!

My pet gripe is people who don't read their emails or can't be bothered to check the one I sent yesterday. It seems it's ok to ask ME to resend it, but they can't be bothered to look for themselves.

Listening to anyone eat.

Argh! I know what you mean. Why are some people e.g. DH so b**y noisy. I put the radio on to drown him out.

DC they're non stop all day only one of them is mine he seems to attract them from afar.

Because if you TELL them you're responsible for the resulting fuck up they make.

If you share the info it's up to them what they do with it

The sound of chewing and slurping

At the moment people wearing masks under their noses.
But saying something to my son, him going 'ok yea', then me asking what I just said and he goes 'I don't know I wasn't listening'.
People who keep looking at their phone when you are trying to talk to them...

My gaslighting condescending bastard of a new GP.

Me: These pills are having very serious life limiting side effects.

Him: You've tried EVERYTHING...derisory laugh.

Me: I thought there were several dozen.

Him: Nooooo...second derisory laugh.

I've tried three, fucking THREE.
A very reknowned web site lists the 65 most commonly used drugs for my condition.

Translation- I can't be arsed to do anything else. Those 3 are below a pound a month and you are just a stupid woman so fuck off.

Like talking to a fucking brick wall no matter what the subject.

I ask this - If those three drugs I have tried are the only ones anyone will ever need because they suit everyone, why were the other sixty two developed by pharmaceutical companies....for shits and giggles?

Fucking tosser...scream.

Affect and effect being interchangeable on emails makes me want to scream.

“We have been effected”
“The affect of this change”

You've got me going now...

I hate it when a DIY job needs doing and my husband gets the ladder out and promptly climbs it. There then follows his needs..." can your get me a Philips' screwdriver?" " Can you pass me the flange?" " Can you bring the shelf/sprocket/paint/spirit level/hod etc..."

With regard to grammar pedantry, I hate the misuse of 'myriad.'
It's " I saw myriad colours."
Not "I saw a myriad of colours."

Oh, and I don't understand why empty toilet roll tubes don't have legs so that they can find their own way to the recycling bin!

Sorry, another one.
I silently weep when I hear ...
" Me and my friend went shopping."

My husband does similar with nappy changes. Lies the kid down, undoes the nappy, lifts his feet up, pulls the pooy nappy out from under him and then is like 'where are the wipes?'

Elf on the shelf and Christmas Eve boxes and threads about them in August - not of course in anyway inspired by anything I've seen on here.....

At work when I take out 3 read hot plates balancing on my arms and so many people say "Oh you've forgotten my chips and garlic bread!" etc and I have to say
I haven't forgotten but I'm not a fucking octopus
"don't worry I'll bring them out now"

When people (usually sportspeople) say “I gave 110%”.

It really, really annoys me and my husband now just looks at me and shakes his head as he knows I am going to say something about it!

Today I'd crash MN with my list....

' I am a grammar pedant too.'

I'm terrible/lazy at spag. It always amuses me how many people fume about it. I'm perfect in every other area though .

Smae here. DH buys carrots? Best carrots ever. DH buys raspberries? Best raspberries ever!

Makes mashed potato? Best mash EVER

Men in shorts. Could be fit as fuck, but shorts? No
