My neighbours closing their curtains randomly for an hour or so during the day (usually about now). Why? Why are they doing this? 
Because Karl and Deborah don't want you to see them having sex, obviously.

Oohhh afternoon delight!

Carl is premier league Random.
If I don't say 'What's Carl doing now?' At least twice a day I start to panic that he's got a project in mind.
Last month I had to endure Carl with his skip. I barely sat down from that window.

@sapnupuas their child is having a nap?

sparepantsandtoothbrush · 16/09/2020 12:34

@sapnupuas I do that Blush It's because I'm fat and don't want anyone walking past to see me exercising!

Haha are you my neighbour? We do this in hope the eldest falls asleep watching tv and has a sleep while brother does!

People without dc in child friendly pubs. We used to take turns with 2 other couples choosing a venue for an evening meal out. The front car - The Deciders 'pulled into a Wacky Warehouse carpark!! I told dh to drive on!!
Grin

Dogs booted out into the back garden who bark at even a leaf blowing past.

Muffled bassy music in cars, especially when parked near us.

Baseball caps on people whose age isn't in single figures.

Itsabeautifuldayheyhey · 16/09/2020 12:40

Car drivers/passengers who throw litter out of the car windows.

So if you're in a pub with the kids and there's child free People there, does that annoy you, or being expected to go there yourself when you have no kids?
Hingeandbracket · 16/09/2020 12:41

Vocal fry.
People who have rearranged the characters on their car number plate.

MorrisZapp · 16/09/2020 12:41

My colleague's wife's Facebook page. I've only met her twice, she's perfectly nice. But aaaaaargh it's so full of shit.

seayork2020 · 16/09/2020 12:41

Yes also artificial lips and lack of frowning ability

Hershellina · 16/09/2020 12:42

People wearing thin leggings as if they were actual trousers, so that I can see their pants.

IT IS NONE OF MY BUSINESS HOW THEY DRESS but it still makes me irrationally annoyed. Even with little kids.

Whattodo1610 · 16/09/2020 12:42

When Carl changed his name to Karl ..... 🤣🤣🤣

RainWoman19 · 16/09/2020 12:43

Babies in prams/carseats with bottles propped up for feeding.

Kids touching every available surface in shops and restaurants while their parent looks on indulgently at their offspring. We are in the middle of a world pandemic ffs! Do NOT let your child grab onto my shopping trolley, chair or table as they walk past (unless they are a toddler or have a disability that makes walking difficult). Especially if I see them picking their nose just beforehand. I know that children inadvertently touch things without thinking (as I'm sure adults do too) but there is a difference between gently reminding them and letting them do as they please. BTW I have also seen lots of very well behaved children whilst out, still behaving like children do but with well behaved parents who remind them not to run around and touch everything if they start to get a bit excitable. Best example I saw - child about 8 wearing a mask in a queue, took mask off (no problem as they aren't compulsory at that age) started wrapping mask around a barrier that anyone could have touched this went on for several minutes, put mask back on face again Confused adults watched the whole thing and said nothing but proudly made a big performance that the child was wearing a mask. 'Well done Timmy, good boy for putting your mask back on' . Yuck, poor child now has goodness knows what in close confinement to their mouth and nose.
And don't get me started on adults who insist on leaning or lounging on shop / restaurant counters whilst they are being served, often with their mask under their nose for good measure.

Sunnydaysstillhere · 16/09/2020 12:43

Just can't grasp why a person would subject themselves to dc noise by choice!! A Saturday night out without my dc won't ever be in a place I can see /hear /smell a dc.
I don't take my dc to pubs ever.
