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?

My opposite neighbours

They are utter wankers.

Constantly broke lockdown rules and got away with it. We're not talking took more than one walk a day, we're talking 20 car loads of people turning up every afternoon and staying until 3am.

They let their and their mates kids run round the road until 4am, screaming, banging, being abusive. Some of these kids are no more than 4. They have twins too, and when they were newborn they'd leave them outside in their pram, screaming bloody heads off until the mum would saunter out to feed them. An elderly neighbor who has since passed away went and knocked one afternoon to say they were crying and it was awfully cold, he got called a paedo by them and their mates, they made his and his wife's life hell.

Right now, we are on day two of a party. The kids are scream singing. We've had a high powered car absolutely belting up and down the road, kids in it with no belts on, blocking the road. They were sitting on my car earlier until I told them to bloody move.

But you try and say anything to the utter Neanderthal of a father of the house and he starts shouting racism. He gets total steroid rage when anyone dares put Christmas Decs or Halloween stuff up. It's racist apparently. Yet we all have to put up with their behaviour. His wife has hit at least 2 of our cars we've had whilst living here she cannot drive for toffee but she won't own up.

I am moving soon, thank fuck. But I know tonight I will get no sleep, again.

I slammed my window a few years back as I had enough- I've been so exhausted by it before I've barely been able to function - and had his wife slagging me off and calling me a bitch and a whore. Charming.

One night one of or the kids was absolutely screaming, like blood curdling. I was certain either she'd been hit by a car or someone was trying to snatch her. So I put my head out my window, and said "is everyone OK?" Got met with kids calling me all manner of vile slurs.

The parents don't care because they sit indoors with music playing and shouting over each other. No one watches these kids and people tend to drive up it as speed.

I cannot wait to move. I've barely slept in years down to them.

When someone pulls out of a junction in front of me, then proceeds to drive well below the speed limit, even though there is no further traffic behind me. 😠

Lifting small dogs that are frightened exposes there bellies if an aggressive dog is on the war path. Which I have to say is rare you’d think it was daily when it isn’t it’s bloody social media churning out the same one.

to new owners of a puppy, older dog etc.
Train your fucking dog
exercise your fucking dog
no it isn’t an over night fix
when you get a puppy. Train it. Play with it, walk it, let it nap, don’t bug the shit out of it, teach your kids this

crates are not the spawn of satan they are a good place for naps for puppies or a hide out for an older dog when they want peace. How would you feel being disturbed when you want peace mmm.

oh another one tell your kids to not approach dogs without permission you have no fucking clues on that dogs temperament. Even a good dog can have an off day.

I have the same thing with the picture. I phoned them last week as we were paying £70 a month. I wanted to go for broadband only as we haven't used a landline for over 8 years and I can get most of the TV we watch on Smart TV/Freeview. Anyway, the woman I eventually spoke to said she could give me the same package for £35 a month! Why the buggery have we been paying double then? So phone them up.

Those bloody sing song announcements on Jet2- “It’s tidy up time!” There may be 5 year olds on board but most of us are (paying) adults.

We have bad mobile reception. When I'm online and a code is sent to my phone to confirm my identity, I have to run upstairs or to the end of the garden waving my phone in the air to get it. By the time I get back to my tablet it has usually timed out. It makes me so angry but on the other hand has sometimes saved me money because I can't be bothered to do it all over again.

Bloody hell calm down

Which make & model out of interest? So I can be sure to avoid!

People who stand in doorways, supermarket aisles etc in the way with no intention of moving.

People who park in parent and baby spaces but have no child with them… old people are the worst for this!

People who moan about having to go back into the office say twice a week after working from home since covid and saying it’s because of childcare… pay for childcare like the rest of us and like u probably did before covid and bore off….

people moaning about dogs weeing on footpaths or pooing on grass…… are you for real? 🫠🤯

just people basically….. 🤣

The local supermarket (Morr) I cannot reach my shopping once it’s been put through the till because the slope it’s placed on does nothing. I ask for my stuff to be thrown, which is done a couple of items then it’s left sitting piling up, I really can’t stretch that far, is this just me?

Oooops I forgot one.... arseholes who recognise themselves in a post about people and things that drive you mental and have to try make a smart comment.

Ooohhhh and people who ask for a "handhold"..makes me puke a bit into my mouth.

That sounds like utter hell OP!

Important instructions on food, medicine, make up, hair products etc. Why is it so bloody small and very often, a condensed typeface?

Absolutely ridiculous 😠 😡

Oh yes, computer updates.

'Reboot now or reboot later?'

Click 'later'.

Five seconds later: 'Reboot now or reboot later?'

Repeat until lunchtime when I actually have time to reboot.

And why does Zoom always install updates at the start of call? Why not wait for the end?

@oldnproud are you in Kent/East Sussex? Is that the South East Water supply problems?

Maybe she prefers the cat to her children. Not all mothers should be mothers in my experience.

I work with a woman who pops her gum all day. It reminds me of that song “Cell Block Tango” from the musical Chicago. 🤬🤬🤬

Agree with the getting a dog then complaining it’s not behaving like some robot dog and the p
cost etc! Do your research! Also the cognitive dissonance behind the price of the puppy boom in terms of animal welfare, and yes I mean cockerpoos. Please just stop!

Resetting my (‘unrecognised’) password only to be told I cannot use a previous password. What you mean the one I was just trying to log in with that you said you didn’t recognise?

Percentage service charges on restaurant bills. So the more I spend the more I have to pay - it’s the same service whether I buy a £20 or £200 bottle of wine, £10 or £30 entree etc. Don’t get me wrong I am all for tipping and a generous tipper too - but the idea of Service charges makes my blood boil.

People who recline their seats on airplanes with no regard for those sitting behind them. I didn’t want to use the table thank you, much prefer seeing my G&T slide eating down onto my lap, and I don’t mind limboing under the back of your seat when I need to stand up either.

Big kids who use soft play areas or play equipment meant for babies and toddlers. I have an irrational urge to punch them (and their accompanying adult who is paying no attention to them) in the face. Just fuck off into the area that’s designed for inconsiderate thugs like you!

When Greggs have sold out of tuna crunch baguettes. Sorry once I’m in the mood I have to have it - not even a cheese and onion pasty will compensate me.

This ^ enrages me too. All the rights women fought long and hard for and men trying to erase them.

I work in the vehicle service industry - people who phone me about their vehicle but don’t know their registration number. Or say ‘oh I knew you were going to ask for that’ Then have your registration number ready before you ring me. Absolute morons

Being told I'm part of the problem because I have 3 bull breed dogs. Never mind I took all 3 to training. That the youngest (and biggest) lays down and waits until a dog/human interacts with him before sitting and enjoying a fuss or playing.

I know there are issues with XL Bully's currently, but mine are not XL and I am not a drug dealer wanting to look 'hard'. I'm a financial adviser who has replaced my grown nest flying children with dogs.

Mind you people in general these days seem to be judgemental arseholes.

Oh and also this business about men in women's prisons/toilets/sports/etc. No issues with transitioning people at all. No issue with anyone doing anything unless it is hurting someone else or illegal but it feels like women are being marginalised again.

I also do not want to identify as a CIS woman, I am just a woman.

No. Anglian Water

Ooh yes, I agree with this. Takes me ages to work out the use before dates on medicines now. I usually end up asking my son, "does it say 2023 or 2025?" Surely use before dates on medicines should be huge and in bold? They're quite important.
