Small things that annoy you... (me)

[Tilllly]

I'm turning into that grumpy middle aged woman.... 🤣. Seems like lots of little things annoy me

This morning's being, stopped at cafe for breakfast
My coffee didn't arrive until I'd finished my bacon sandwich

Day ruined 😉😂

People who talk loudly into mobile phones when in public.
People who turn their garage into a room and convert most of their drive so that they then park their 4 cars outside other people’s homes.
People who answer their phone during an appointment with me. People who are late and expect me to over run into someone else’s appointment time.
Random strangers ( mainly men) who interrupt my thoughts by talking to me. I don’t know you, I don’t want to know you and you can see I’m actually busy.

You need a coffee sandwich!

coffee

food

coffee

ehen I need coffee, I need coffee, but I hate coffee with food.

why didn't you just ask for the coffee?

@Thelnebriati

we don't have food waste canisters.

why do you need food safe plastic for waste?

Same here, I was at a soft play a couple of weeks ago, 45 minutes between my latte and the arrival of a very dry bacon sandwich with razor sharp bacon 🤣

@Hbh17

Errr... what's wrong with 'train stations'??

My husband choosing to park as far away from the supermarket/cinema/friends house/anywhere despite spaces being available immediately outside. Double rage if it's cold/rainy.

I was pondering this but assume it’s because it’s made into compost and op grows her own veg so doesn’t want plastic chemicals in the soil that food is grown in?

I did @WinterMusings
They were busy... (they weren't 😡)

People who stop dead as they exit a shop etc, totally blocking the door

People who walk 3 or 4 abreast SLOWLY....
I do that passive aggressive thing of
"Excuse me, can I just get past you"

Faffers drive me insane

It's 'railway stations'. 'Train stations' is American.' Copying everything American is an annoyance.

When people at the gym put the weights/kettle bells/medicine balls back on the rack but not with the weight showing. Spend ages lifting/turning them round until I get the weight I need.

Just watching the athletics. Why do the men wear shorts but all the women seem to have to wear 'knickers' that disappear up their bum after every movement. That can't be comfortable surely.

Don't understand the train station one. Otherwise they could be talking about the bus station.

Also the plastic of the food waste bins. It's waste - surely it doesn't matter. Willing to be educated.

Or come up and use the treadmill next to you when all the others are free then start a loud phone call so I end up having to move.

Woman at the only self service checkout in a petrol forecourt. I was there to get some food, she was faffing about so I joined the main queue and was out before she had even packed her shopping as she was pissing about so much.

I pretty much stopped using an otherwise lovely cafe near my house because of similar. The final straw was when our coffee and hot chocolate came and were finished 15 mins before the scone appeared. I wanted the scone WITH the drinks.

Why do they need to be food safe if it's for waste? No one is going to eat the waste, are they?

People who don't RTFT before commenting! Like me, sorry

People walking too slow on the school run.

Yy re railway station. Not train station. And also orientated not oriented.

@DoraSpenlow they don’t have to wear the knickers (I agree they look uncomfortable) they choose to. Plenty of athletes wear shorts

Sydney McLauchlin and Toni Amusan, both world record holders in hurdles, run in shorts for example. Both are Ace too

Ah yes my husband does this too! Why is it I wonder?

When you say 'the station' that means the railway station and 'the bus station' for the bus station.

I didn't understand the one about the food waste bin. For years I bought those bags before I found out that you can actually wrap it in newspaper instead. That's in my council area anyway. Now I don't buy the bags. Whether this has any relevance to the poster's point I don't know.

People who stop for a conversation in the supermarket, blocking an entire section and only move 2 inches along when you go to get something, then another inch, then another inch and then look at you in surprise when you get fed up with saying 'excuse me' and shove them with your trolley or shout out 'Please move out of the way' (not a question) so that everyone stares at them.

And the staff blocking the aisles with their trolleys and chatting instead of loading the stuff into place. Always by the pillars so you have no hope of passing. And always in Waitrose. Morrisons staff don't do this.

People who stand in front of the train door and try to get on before everyone inside has disembarked. There are literally black and yellow squares on the platform with 'STAND CLEAR' in them because of this stupidity.

Women at a supermarket checkout who poke around in their purse like a gynecologist, scrutinising each coin on both sides saying "I think I've got the exact money..."

Alot instead of a lot.
Bare instead of bear.
