People who go shopping and don’t have payment ready and spend an age trying to find cash or card . I have to close my eyes and not watch because I’m usually calm but it makes me so so mad

People who don't know the difference between there and their

Companies selling clothes without pockets. I try not to buy them but it still drives me nuts. As for those fake/ trick pockets ( yes I know all about not spoiling the line/ fashion etc) they are SUCH a betrayal! I want to be able to carry my phone, hand san, etc without lugging a bag everywhere!!

People on Facebook selling random sweets in cellophone

People who don’t know the difference between ‘there‘ and ‘their’.

GertieBassett · 17/09/2020 18:15

People who airbrush their pictures!! Yes you Michelle!! How come you look like a china doll on insta yet at work you look like a washed up old sea hag!...
And I'll add the sycophants that comment." oh babe you're so beautiful"

This has turned into a ' things I hate ' thread now! 😀
( a lot I agree with)

DamnIvy · 17/09/2020 18:19

Babies or young children in pushchairs with no shoes/booties, or sometimes even no socks on, when it's cold.
I cant stand seeing those little red feet.
And most often the parent is wrapped up warm in a coat!!

@RelaisBlu

But the really enraging thing about price stickers on books is when they won't come off cleanly so that you are left with a horrible sticky patch Angry
The struggle is real. I hear you.

Parents that dress all their daughters in the same clothes despite a big age gap between them

My bloody neighbour who never weeds or mows her lawn yet but keeps buying hundreds of flipping gnomes and plastic crap to hide in the ever growing jungle.

GuidoTheKillerPimp · 17/09/2020 18:27

Gender reveal parties. It’s a boy or a girl, FFS. Anything else is probably not the surprise you want.

Somersetlady · 17/09/2020 18:31

People who have screens for their kids to watch in the car!

Speak to them. Point things out. Play eye spy

@JudgeRindersMinder

Couples saying “we’re” pregnant

Yes!! I always want to ask, “What? Both of you? That’s incredible!”

carbuncleonapigsposterior · 17/09/2020 18:32

Famous people who have to share special messages to their offspring with the whole wide world, "Happy Birthday Sprog, you are a wonderful person inside and out and we are so, so proud of you" that sort of thing.
People who ignore public notices such as "don't leave your possessions in changing cubicle" as if that doesn't apply to them.
Cyclists who go through red lights and ride several abreast so you can't get past them.
People who are boastful about their children's achievements
Friends who talk about people they know and you don't and go on and on about them.
Friends who engage in phone conversations with other people when you've arranged a meet up for a coffee or a meal, and sometimes it's a member of their family who they will be seeing later anyway!
People who are oblivious to others when out walking and so engaged with their phone so they never look up. Even when crossing the road taking no responsibility for their own safety that's up to everyone around them.
Yeah baby headbands so stupid and maybe uncomfortable for poor little baby who knows!
Drivers who don't acknowledge when you've given way for them.
People who walk towards you say two or three abreast on a narrow pavement and expect you to step in the road for them, still happens in spite of social distancing.

Mothers carrying all their kids' stuff for them.

@spikyplants

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.

My husband keeps a cap in the car as he is bald. It fits his head and is comfortable, even though it is from a conference I went to over 12 years ago regarding sexual health. He needs it and uses it, in the sun, never inside.

Making memories...you're living and everything is a memory

Making memories is also often Facebook bragging :(
