To want to know the pettiest things that annoys you.

[IseeNarcPeople]

Just for fun to take our minds off the huge, horrible stuff in our lives.
Me :
Tiny, tiny cloves of garlic
"Pull tab here"

Is it by any chance an eBac? I love mine but my good this drives me scatty!!!!

See also those who describe themselves as “perfessional” when they mean “professional”.

Stickers on fruit, the choking little plastic fuckers.

Where is it pronounced expresso?

People in general then?!

People that say the proof is in the pudding

Leaving the toilet seat up. Specifically my husband as it's doing this in the en-suite toilet that fucks me off the most.

I'm very short glasses but do not wear them when I go to the toilet in the middle of the night. Neither do I turn on the light out of respect for him as it would wake him. It's always a shock when half my arse goes into the toilet bowl. Even though it happens every bloody night.

You would hate my washing machine; it also beeps (incessantly) until I unload the washing. It’s a German brand and clearly cannot cope with slatternly English ways of leaving the washing in the machine beyond the nano-second a cycle is finished. I sometimes leave the wet washing in the machine overnight just to push it off.

The way my dog pointedly refuses to wee or poo in the garden. I love her to pieces but sometimes I feel seriously inconvenienced by having to walk half a mile up the lane to her preferred spot, even though it always does me some good.

I thought that was only me.

I was going to say odd socks. But that’s not petty

It's infuriating my small brain obviously can't process white lids😄

People standing too close to you in a queue.

@Regholdsworthswaterbed
Come the revolution, people who don't put the divider on the checkout will be the first to go.

Being told to fast from midnight then immediately wanting to eat everything in site
.

I’ll add iPhone autocorrect to my list of petty hates; I know how to spell, thanks. I meant ‘piss it off’.

People who stand in a queue without looking at the menu and deciding what they want before getting to the server.

"What would you like?"
"Oooh I don't know what is there mummy?"
"Ice cream?"
"What flavours?"
"Vanilla, strawberry, raspberry ripple swirl caramel toffee apple twist...."
"What cakes do they have?"
"darling, sweetie, JOHN!!! (shouts over to husband) what would you like?"
"Oooh I don't know what is there?"

ARGH !!!!!

(Yes, looking at you family of 6 at the cafe in front of me today)

I do this if I have my backpack because, without fail, every time it objects to "something in the packing area". So it's quicker to scan everything, then pack, than have to call the supervisor over, often more than once, because it can't cope with an ordinary bag.

My petty irritation is when I get up on Saturday, take the dc to their activities, sometimes pick them up from said activities, put the wash on, do various chores. Then dh wanders downstairs after a lie in when I've just sat down and says "will you come and help me empty the dishwasher..."
Tbf he doesn't do it often, and I suspect he won't do it again after last time.

My washing machine sings like this:

My bastard car. Thinks it can drive better than me and beeps fucking constantly. Even BRAKES (has it in red on the display) when it thinks I am too close to the hedge. See also; the screaming alerts it gives me when I approach a parked car slightly too fast.

Men

When people write wonder but they mean WANDER

Imagine my rage when DH fitted a roller blind in that fashion.

Shrieking children on trains. Ineffectual parenting of shrieking children on trains. Electronic devices being used on trains without headphones. People sniffing on trains. People having a phone interview on trains

12 hours in two days on a train has done my head in. Love travelling by train. Hate selfish fuckers also travelling by train 🤬

Those CCTV signs that say ‘Smile! You’re on camera!’ Unnecessarily passive-aggressive and make me feel like that they are personally assuming that I’m up to no good 😅
