DH has just put the dishwasher on a long cycle in the middle of the day 😡 I have all of his family coming shortly for a meal to celebrate his birthday.

surely everyone knows that during the day it’s a short cycle and overnight it’s a long cycle.

now I have to wait 3 bastard hours for it to finish with the pots building up.

of course slightly lighthearted but what does give you the rage?

@AnnaNims Me too! Bought it especially for bedding as the cats and dog sleep with my DD so I like to wash bedding often.

Don't know how to tell if a new one will spin the same? Any advice welcome!

My stepson slurping when he eats.

People who crunch crisps loudly.

Jeffjefftyjeff · 22/07/2023 12:16

People who don’t indicate when pedestrians are about. Just because I’m not a car, doesn’t mean I don’t need to know if you’re about to turn in to my path and run me over!!!!

PuddlesPityParty · 22/07/2023 12:17

My incompetent local council and my MP who lives in LONDON (I’m in NW)

The sudden increase of huge US style pick up trucks on the road. Always with not a speck of dirt on them, no load inside, and driven by one single person.

Babsexxx · 22/07/2023 12:19

Constant phone calls at the minute to see if I’ve had the baby and people thinking it’s there god given right to know every aspect of medical information asking intrusive questions about myself!

Christ knows why anyone would even ask me as they know how assertive and direct I can be….either brave or stupid.

I’m also stuck in trying to entertain the 2yo and 4yo as husbands working and it’s raining so the kids are just trashing the place around me rather than enjoying the garden….YEP raging today!

The noisy wanker on the motorbike who goes past my house a dozen times a day accelerating as he goes by.

My jaw clenches every time I hear him.

Stupid ignorant racists on the Nextdoor app 😡

I deleted mine.

KimberleyClark · 22/07/2023 12:20

People who leave their car at the petrol pump and then spend ages looking round the shop before paying for their petrol.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 22/07/2023 12:21

My sister inherently just by thinking about her and her nonsense sometimes.

Monsteramum · 22/07/2023 12:21

A week of rain, preceded by another week of rain, and followed by yet another week of rain.

luckylavender · 22/07/2023 12:22

People who clearly don't work, hogging tills & checkouts in my lunch break.

sarahc336 · 22/07/2023 12:23

My two dds (2 and 6) constantly throwing the sofa cushions on the floor, why do kids do this?

lemonsaretheonlyfruit · 22/07/2023 12:27

People who put bins and planks across them to reserve their parking space outside their house on my road. It's a public road and hard to find a space quite often (though moving them and parking in that space is quite satisfying - I only do that when there is no other spaces)

Virgin media, the picture is constantly breaking up on the telly but they say there's no fault in my area, and the direct debit has gone up to almost £80! Angry

This is usually a junction box issue outside the house, we get it every few years.

Devilsmommy · 22/07/2023 12:28

Hubby sleeping through 4:30am alarm wakinge up after being up and down all night with baby 🤬

Amispringy · 22/07/2023 12:30

The current weather and the ducking constant rain

And twee words in posts like hubby and yummy

thespy · 22/07/2023 12:31

People who park on our road leaving cars for weeks (because it's one of the few roads without parking restrictions and it's free) but park on both sides so that no one else can get through the tiny gap they leave in the middle - people have been driving on the inside on the verge and pavement all week to get past. It need a diagram to explain but FFS this really gives me the rage!

Coffeetree · 22/07/2023 12:39

People pretending not to understand "Ms". Yes I go by "Ms". It does not mean "divorced" it means "none of your business". You don't need to know my marital status to clean my teeth. "Ms" has been in use for half a century.

I'm tempted to get a doctorate just to avoid these stupid scenarios.

TheFifthTellytubby · 22/07/2023 12:40

People who chatter in the theatre or other events. We were at Wimbledon recently and the couple sitting next to us hardly shut up the whole time. If we'd been nearer the front they would probably have distracted the players as well as annoying the other spectators!

Iamblossom · 22/07/2023 12:45

When my sons don't lift the toilet seat up, and I sit in their piss.

I literally never get angry about anything other than this.

LinMortisanass · 22/07/2023 12:46

Daughter of a friend, had an amazing wedding day, posted about it on Facebook then wrote 'we're going away now to process the day..' why do people speak in such a wanky way these days? 'Process the day' my arse, you're going on honeymoon and you don't need to 'process' anything.

tryingtorelaxandgivebirth · 22/07/2023 12:48

Cars that stop to let you out of a junction, even though it's their right of way and there's no other cars behind them.

I'm often not even looking at them, but the emptiness behind them and then realise they have stopped in the middle of the road...

Why.

Just check behind you.

ilovepixie · 22/07/2023 12:50

Entitled people. I work in a deli counter and the people who want things for free or not on the menu. Or don't want to queue, they think they are entitled to whatever they want!

Bonjovispjs · 22/07/2023 12:51

People walking with their noses in their phones not looking where they're going, I'm not moving to go around you.
