What annoys you in everyday life.

Selfish drivers parking their car halfway up the sidewalk - forcing prams/wheelchairs out to road.
Tomatoes.
Smokers.

That said, I did have an almighty stand up shouty argument with a bloke who lit up a stinking cigarette right beside me near a pool on holiday. To this day I regret not shoving his arse in the pool.

People in general but especially other peoples DC.

Cyclists

Everything

Just people and life in general

When your sleeve gets caught on the door handle.

Teenage text crap
they text you …expect an instant response
you text them … days pass no response
drives me insane

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 23/02/2024 20:55

Most people TBH, but especially faffers and ditherers.

Fionaville · 23/02/2024 20:56

People looking at and answering their phones when just the two of you are having a conversation in a cafe or something, when they know its not an important call/message and they could call back.

i hate it when I’m sat behind other cars at the traffic lights waiting for it to turn green and when it does change it takes them
an age to set off. Why aren’t they prepared to move?!!!!!!

Lovelycupofcoffee · 23/02/2024 21:01

Noisy bloody neighbours. It sounds like a herd of elephants has moved in and are having a rave every night .

Rosestulips · 23/02/2024 21:03

When I’m out for a jog and there are dog walkers with those extendable leads and they don’t retract lead it’s just right across the path!

Lifebeganat50 · 23/02/2024 21:03

People who have problems in their life brought about by their poor decisions, who then expect public services to fix them.

In my day to day life, not much annoys me

Rosestulips · 23/02/2024 21:05

People who can’t accept that there are other ways than their way of doing things

DinnaeFashYersel · 23/02/2024 21:09

Scottish Nationalists

Negative colleagues

Bad drivers especially those who drive up your backside to try to force you to go faster

The Kardashians

Lifebeganat50 · 23/02/2024 21:11

@DinnaeFashYersel with you on the Scottish Numpties

AstralSpace · 23/02/2024 21:18

Drivers who don't thank me when I've given them way.

Government

Politicians. Pretty much all of them are self serving.

Companies taking advantage of rising prices and fleecing us.

Reality tv

Being addicted to my phone

FieldInWhichFucksAreGrownIsBarren · 23/02/2024 21:23

Fuuuuuuuuck, I'd be here all night listing shit. EVERYTHING, literally everything. The older I get the more my patience wears thin and my tolerance for bullshit ebbs. Cannot be arsed with other people's inconsiderate actions.
If you asked me for the top thing though? SHIT FUCKING DRIVERS 😡 We see a lot of threads started by them on here, I don't contribute as, as my husband tells me daily -you can't argue with stupid.

FabFebHalfTerm · 23/02/2024 21:26

Not being able to get past the second post on a thread without wanting to tell someone to fuck off.

RabbitsRock · 23/02/2024 21:39

Loads but one thing jumps straight to mind - blokes at my till who when asked if they need a bag point to their significant other & quip “ I brought one with me”. And they always think they’re hilarious!

Justcallmebebes · 23/02/2024 22:02

Bad manners and anti social behaviour. People who crunch noisily when they eat. People who think of no one but themselves. Ignorant people. People

AstralSpace · 23/02/2024 22:06

The worst, that I forgot to put on my list, are people who park right next to you in an empty car park. Even if you choose a spot far away. I don't understand those people.

mustbefunny · 23/02/2024 22:12

When prompted to enter my postcode on any online platform and it doesn't automatically FORMAT IN CAPITALS 😡

Echobelly · 23/02/2024 22:24

People who say 'yourself' when they should just use 'you' - estate agents seem to be especially bad for this

Loitering in entranceways on the Underground when the platforms not at all full

People who say to their kids in shops 'No darling that's for boys/girls' if their child takes a fancy to something that's 'supposed' to be for the opposite sex

People with expensive cars who park the diagonally across two spaces because their car is too precious to be parked anywhere near normal povvo cars like mine. Really makes me want to park one inch from their driver side.

This, like the other threads of this nature, will go sour…
