Things that give you the absolute RAGE!!

[strawthatbrokethecamelsback]

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?

DP resting the teaspoon he just used to make his tea/coffee on a white tea towel right next to the sink!

Dog owners that use flexi leads, or are off lead and let them wander up to my scared dog . He's terrified of big dogs as he got attacked ( we are working on this), and when he barks at the other dog in his space, I get " oh he has small dog syndrome " . No he fuckin doesn't, he doesn't like your rude dog in his face, and thanks for setting him back a week in his confidence levels.

Yep this. ^ And you find these same arsehole owners of BIG dogs, and/or aggressive dogs, mocking and deriding the owners of small dogs, and laughing at them for picking up their little dog... They pick up their little dog, because it's frightened of the big pushy aggressive bully who is coming at them - AND their big dog on the stupid fucking massive extendable lead.

I actually have heard this so many times from women with the luxury of that choice acting as though everyone has it.

It is perverse though. It unites both the well off and the destitute, neither of whom understand those of us in the "stretched middle".

People who vape whilst walking around can honestly just fuck right off.
I don't want to be caught in a plume of anyone's gross air.

Get him one of these. If B & M has none in, other stores have them. So does ebay and amazon!

Yes! This is my current most annoying, along with people not saying thank you when you wait for them to pass

I used to have one. He never used it. He’s just a typical “mummy used to do everything for me” guy. He used to leave his dirty washing in a pile on the floor even though the washing basket was 3 steps away. He has got better since I started to only wash what was in the basket though.

Tailgating

I hate this SO much. In fact, when someone does this, I slow down more and more and more..... The closer they come and the more they hound me, the slower I go. It's safer to do that, as if they crash into the back of me, (which they 100% WILL if I need to slam the brakes on,) the fallout/injuries will be less severe.

AND the fact it really annoys them is a massive bonus. 😆

And don't anybody bother coming at me saying how I am 'wrong' for doing this, and I'm as bad a driver as the one tailgating (like several posters said when a poster said something similar once.) I don't give a fuck about what anyone thinks about me doing this, so don't waste your breath having a go at me, because you'll get no response from me... #sorrynotsorry

Yep, same in my village, moaning on the local FB group or in the pub.🙄🤣😡

People dawdling gives me instant red full on rage. Lack of manners a close second

Skips being delivered at 6.15am.

I work in a pub restaurant with a smallish dog friendly section completely away from the rest of the restaurant, and I get really wound up by people who complain about eating near dogs when they’ve specifically requested to sit in the dog area, or those that want to bring a dog but have such a large party we can’t accommodate in the dog area and then they sulk that they can’t come for a meal with 15+ people if they can’t bring their dog… tbh I’ve just noticed a lot of people seem to have become much more entitled and rude in general since the lockdowns, and some days I struggle to smile and accommodate them as it’s just constant.

Where to start!?
People talking on speaker phone in public. Why?!?!

People who park in disabled spaces without a blue badge. Especially if it’s a builders can <raaaaaaaaage>

Jesus! This is unbelievable.

I've just thought of another one. I have AVG free virus software on my computer.

Every so often I lose access to the internet on my computer. The WIFI button disappears entirely and shows no networks at all. After some research I realised AVG was doing this because it wants me to do a scan.

So why doesn't it have a pop-up saying "please do a scan" rather than suddenly removing my internet access? It is so annoying. Yes I know it's free but there's no need to do that.

There is not enough space in the universe for me to list what enrages me!

Not just on Nextdoor - also on Facebook. According to locals, the young lads loitering with dark intent in our area are always Eastern European. Goodness knows how anyone knows where they are from unless they are in a van or car with an Eastern European numberplate and even then it's an assumption.

For example, atm my DH is looking at the tv screen and he’s breathing. That enrages me. Seriously. 😂😂😂

People who spend ages at a cash machine and just as they retrieve their card from the machine, they have another card ready to insert and start the whole slow process all over again!

Every time I walk into a supermarket or convenience store, there is always a member of staff with a large trolley stacking shelves/ fridge exactly where I want to get something from and the member of staff can clearly see I’m there waiting but makes no effort to move over so that I can pick what I need.
Or a large trolley just left in an aisle in the way of a shelf where I need to get some items from and it’s left to the customer to move a massive trolley out of the way to get what they need from the shelf!

Also when on a packet of food the instructions say “tear here” but there are no slits or perforated lines to be able to tear it!

Cyclists who insist on cycling slowly up the incredibly winding (and so difficult to overtake) country road despite the council having widened the road to include a purpose built cycle track. Runs adjacent to the road so same incline and route but so many seem to be allergic to using it.

Ooh, this reminds me of one...

I get a repeat prescription at the chemist, and they text me when it's in. Every so often, I don't get a text before I run out. So I phone the chemist, who says the surgery hasn't sent it. I phone the surgery, who say they haven't sent it because I need a blood pressure test first. I say, "How would I know I need a blood pressure test - could you not call me or email me? I'm not psychic." They say, "No, we can't call you or email you, we don't have your permission to do that." I say, "You do have my permission, and if you think you don't, what is the point in you having my phone number and email address?"

When the dishwasher finishes and DP opens the door but doesn’t unload it!! Lost count of the number of mornings I’ve assumed it’s a load waiting and chucked a dirty spoon in there with the clean stuff, or just run it again. Grrrrr

Also, noisy eaters, who crunch, chomp and chew loudly. We have one on the office and she seems to eat something new and loud every 30 minutes. I can feel myself getting more and more wound up with my each snack and have to make excuses to leave the room or put headphones in!

Microsoft Office updates when I just want to do something quickly on my PC 🤬🤬
