What tiny things have you done to specifically annoy someone?

[FlyingSoHigh]

My Mil came from a pretty wealthy family and definitely saw herself as a 'cut above' most people.
So I always used to chop carrots into rounds when she came for a meal as I knew she thought it was 'common'; posh people always cut carrots into sticks.
It was a tiny thing but it gave me so much pleasure over the years.
Can anyone beat passive-aggressive cooked carrots?

I've thought of doing this but never have. So my daughter's name was always pronounced incorrectly by her teacher who was called Miss Jones. I so often thought I should start calling her Miss John just to drive the point home that it's just as easy to correctly pronounce dds name as it was to mispronounce hers.
I never did have the guts to try. Will see what the new year brings with the new teacher.

I have a tiny gadget the size of my thumb that beeps and chirps at random intervals. Its sole purpose is to annoy people. The sound is short and irregular so the gadget is difficult to locate. When DH annoys me I turn it on and hide it somewhere. Been doing it for ten years and he’s never found it yet. He was particularly puzzled when we moved house and the mysterious chirp came with us!

😂 😂

I have had a weird, and most unexpected, delight in reading this thread.

Some of these made me chuckle - esp the boss telephone wire

Ignore their bad behaviour.

I enjoy being really friendly to a colleague I know doesn't like me. It makes me giggle inside to watch her being forced to smile at me.

Why? Someone i know does this to me. I get on with it because i think she is pathetic and figure it is one of few ego trips she gets.

We have a Rubik's cube. It drives DH mad when it isn't all perfectly done. So of course I fiddle randomly with it and leave it somewhere I know he'll see if so he has to fix it. So petty. So entertaining.

An old boss of mine was a control freak and micro-manager to the point that she moved desks so she could watch my screen all day.

After seeing me take 2 personal calls at work one morning (my dad was in hospital), she told me I was only allowed to use my phone during lunchtime, and to keep it in my bag.

I took great delight in finding a small unused make-up bag, and kept my phone in there instead. I used to walk around the office with that little bag in my hand at all times. She knew my phone was in there, but couldn't say a word as she knew it would be unhinged to do so!

Told my ex that he was basically a crap shag. Oops. I wasn’t lying. I’d wanted to tell him for over a decade. Should have seen his face. Thought he was going to cry 😂 serves him right for being an arsehole to me

Turned the boiler off mid shower 🙈 I got the desired reaction 😂

I need a miniature beeper. No joke.

Oh I’ve pulled the pillow out from under drunk, snoring, exes head while he slept then pretended to be asleep. Next day when he was hungover, I hoovered the ceiling under the room he was in

I used to have an upstairs neighbour who was a total bellend. We shared a garden so I used to let my dog piss up his front door every day.

My DH really annoyed me before going out drinking with his pals. I knew he would be totally off his face when he came home so I liberally sprinkled some Lego on the floor by his side of the bed and left an upturned plug there too for good measure.

No idea how he did it but he missed every bit. Either that or he didn't feel a thing.

Bought a huge light shade so Ex would bump his head every time he visited.

If DH is annoying me, I transfer £1 into his bank account with references like “uraw*nker”. Petty but makes me happy.

We often go away with the in laws, on holiday, they are quite tight and hate eating out, I make a point of suggesting restaurants that I know my DH will want to go too, even though I'm more than happy to eat in ....winds the MIL up no end

I don't understand. Why would you even want to go anywhere with them, let alone go away with them regularly? Why? One episode of tightness and I'd never go anywhere with them again. I don't don't understand why you reward them by doing this.

After I split with my ex for cheating and robbing me blind I had an old Nokia that you could set a voice note as a ring tone. I recorded myself shouting "Danny has a tiny cock!" as a ring tone and "I'm using my phone look!" for text messages. Then I sewed it into his precious Ralph Lauren duffle coat. I was super nice to him and had all his stuff waiting for him. (I think he thought I was caving in). The next day me and my friends repeatedly rang and text the phone. He was furious and threatened to sue me saying he got into trouble with his boss. He then said "Don't think for a second I'm giving you the phone back!" I said he could come for the charger so he hung up

Not sure if this counts, but I spent a very miserable 5 weeks working for Anglian Windows. We had to ring people up to see if they wanted windows

I fucking hated it, I hated the staff and particularly the boss who during my training informed me that old people are the best to get on the phone due to them all having money under their mattresses.

I just couldn't do it, but I was desperate for the money , on the last day when I was pulled in for being shit. I decided it wasn't wasn't worth it. I spent the last 4/5 hours putting marks down on people I knew stating that they have a thing that means you can't phone them again.
(This was in the late 90s)

I found my Gran's address and she lived in an estate that was mainly for old people. I made sure none of them could get a call and also marked down various other people.

Did I mention how much I hated that job?

There's a local pharmacist called Jenna, I always call her Gemma as her "I'm so far above you I can see Mars" attitude really fucks me off.

I used to watch my Ex lock the front door and then wait until he had got settled into bed and ask him if he'd locked the door knowing full well that he had but that he wouldn't be able to go to sleep until he'd gone down and double checked it used to really wind him up!

When dc were at primary school there was a group of mothers who really looked down on me and ds and would ignore me and would sometimes or gather in a group laughing and pointing
Should add Ds is more than likely ADHD so parents just thought he was a naughty child and I was a bad mother.

I would make a point of inviting their children to ds’s birthday party knowing not only did their children want to come and would be pestering their parents to take them but also they had to speak to me to say they weren’t coming as I made a point of doing the rounds of the parents to ask them if they hadn’t RSVP.

I used to also send them Christmas cards after they had given out theirs and not given Ds one. Usually on the last day of term as I knew they would be irritated that they hadn’t been polite and done Ds a card.

Not me, but my sister to me. I have curly/wavy hair - but not in a good way. I like my hair to be straight but the lightest moisture in the air or if I sweat the tiniest bit, everything, especially my fringe, starts to curl. I hate it. If my sister's losing an argument, she says casually, your hair's curling. Cue me running off to find my straighteners, argument abandoned. Gah.

My hubby and I each have different cutlery that we prefer to use. When I give him his cutlery I often give him the ones he doesn't like but purposely put them in his plate so they get dirty and he can't put them back and get his preferred ones

Dyed my brown hair lighter my ex husband hated blond hair we split up it went lighter he bitched about it frequently so I went a bit lighter he even bitched about it to his fiancé she was mystified as to why it was his business then they split up she dyed her hair blond too no idea why it pisses him off so badly 🤷‍♀️
