Little things people do that are irritating....

[TooTiredAndFedUp]

Just for fun.

I'll begin...

Taking the toilet roll of the toilet roll holder and not putting it back on...why take it off to begin with.

I used to be a shopping-trolley-as-mobility-aid person! Terribly sorry, but shopping trolleys are free, whereas mobility aids cost £££ to £££££'s! It was the only way I could get any exercise or do my shopping for several years before I finally saved enough for a chair (given the NHS voucher towards it was less than a fifth of its actual cost!).

People who stop and clog up the aisle in the supermarket and when I say 'excuse me' do not look DOWN, ever, they look over their shoulders, can't see anyone so continue to block my way. Then they look really arsed off when I give 'em a nudge in the ankles with my foot-plates!

People who will shove in front of me when I am trying to select something from a shelf or chiller, often doing so from my right hand side meaning their hip/arse comes into contact with my controller joy-stick and crashes me into the display then look at me like thats MY fucking fault!

I ask someone to empty the drier and they literally take out the clothes and dump them on the counter... expecting someone else to come along and fold them, and to move the wet clothes from the washing machine over.

Not giving a suitable answer to a question and being vague. Would you like lunch…yeah maybe.

Just be more direct, yes, no or a more detailed answer.

DH I’m looking at you

God where do I start 😆 people at work leaving me messages asking me to do this and that when they can bloody do it themselves.

I begrudgingly gave a colleague a lift to work for two weeks, while their car was in the shop. They talked at me the entire time, a 45 min car ride each way. At the traffic lights, they interrupted their own diatribe to tell me the lights had changed to green. I’d been politely acknowledging them, and taken my eyes off the road for 5 seconds.

that feels better, and the colleague in question now has their car back!

When people rattle a hard candy/mint/lozenge against their teeth incessantly. Drives me crazy.

Quite a few of mine have already been mentioned. But to add to the small group blocking an entrance when they could stand anywhere else and the people who block an entire aisle with their trolley parked diagonally in the middle: it irritates me when I am polite and say ‘excuse me please’ they look at me as if they are highly offended. WTF! Since when is saying ‘excuse me please’ akin to saying ‘move out of the fucking way bitch!’

People who stand far too close to you in public spaces. They seem to have multiplied in recent years! Making up for social distancing during Covid. Supermarkets are the worst for it.

People who can't eat with their mouth closed. Also people who don't know how to hold cutlery. It's a knife not a pen.

My dad does this horrible sniffing thing constantly.

Dear God, mine isn't the only house where this happens then?! There's only two of us in the house and it ain't me, so I KNOW it's DH........ but just WHY?!? 😱 😂

Are you also married to my husband? Also drives me insane!!

On WhatsApp groups, when I post something, people who post about two minutes later on an entirely different topic, so we then get two conversations overlapping. Just give a post a bit of breathing space!

And they tell you about something they "BROUGHT" from a shop instead of BOUGHT

I live in a holiday area with lots of narrow lanes with passing places for one/possibly two cars to fit/pass each other. I get sooo mad when I travel along the lanes and cars bunch up . When you reach a passing place there is no way 4 cars are going to pass another 2 or 3! Leave gaps and look ahead!! I always avoid lane driving in the summer as it takes sooo long to get anywhere. And don’t get me started on people that can’t reverse so sit there just staring at you waiting for you to reverse for ages! ! I get it’s tricky but I am patient. And those tossers that drive right up to my bonnet to push me along when I am reversing back. Aaarrgghhh just wait will you. I avoid any lane driving if I can during holiday season.

DH leaves cupboard doors open. Just why?!?

Playing videos / music out loud on their phone on public transport.

Particularly annoying when people are watching eg TikTok and so the sound changes every 2 seconds.

Travel on public transport every day so a common problem.

Even worse is when they put a smiley face emoji when they are replying to a complaint.
Yes I’m talking about you NatWest.

people who aren’t prepared at train station barriers and stand and block it while they fanny about looking for their wallet.

People who walk and text, so they slow down and meander in front of you.

my bin men, who insist on leaving our food waste bin upside down to show everyone they’ve emptied it, except it’s never fully empty so I end up with rotting potato peel and bin juice running down my driveway. I’ve asked them not too, I think they do it deliberately now!

DH who opens a new bottle of milk/ketchup etc before the old one is finished so we end up with loads of not quite finished stuff taking up space in the fridge. And he’s another one who thinks that if he puts his dirty cup near the dishwasher the fairies will deal with it!

Opening a new mayo or salad cream when there is already one in the fridge. Yesterday i found three salad cream bottles all with one inch left and two mayos. Grr.

People that walk 2/3 abreast along narrow walk ways and expect people walking towards them to go in the road/ through mud to get passed them. You can see me coming, move!

When you stop at a junction, waiting to turn right. Car coming towards you so you wait. Only for them to stop and give way just before they get to you, even though there is nothing behind them! Then they do that 'I'm so kind and helpful' face at you waiting to be thanked.

Get off buses, trains or escalators and stop dead. Right there.

Yes! And people who use the 'pay at the pump' pump and yet still go into the kiosk!

Families who think Sunday supermarket shopping is an 'outing'. Mum, dad, grandmother and 3 kids with 1 trolley.

People who refer to their pet as 'fur baby'
