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.

Not understanding the very basic one way system in car parks.

Standing in doorways or just outside or inside of them. Drives me crazy.
Also being slow at checkouts. How many times in your life have you paid for things? Did you not realize you would need your wallet???

I've got a couple of lovely, intelligent friends who have a habit of persistently getting the names of things/places wrong. It shouldn't matter at all but it drives me mad! Good job I love them 😁

I saw this on Facebook and remembered your post! 😂

I'd be out in the dead of night with a bucket of white paint for that sign🤣

People who buy extravagant decoration for a child's birthday and then get irritated that someone doesn't take it off their hands. On our local Facebook page I always see "Balloon Arch and age 2 balloon going free. Needs gone by this evening or they get popped and binned!" They go to all that trouble and expense but then act like they are going to commit environmental sin and it's everyone else's fault. Don't buy the bloody thing then!

Plus the ones who write of when they mean have, or loose when they mean lose - and then get extremely defensive about it.

Slowing down to 45mph when a speed camera on a motorway comes into view, causing all lanes to slow to 50 or below for huge chunks of motorway. Had this 3 times yesterday... Do that many people still not have cruise control?

I have large breasts and none of the bras I have found are good enough to lift them right up!!! My size is extremely rare and only M&S do it. Literally only M&S and they only lift them up properly for about a month and then they start to give.
I cannot afford to have a really decent bra made

Twits who just sit at the lights when they've turned green, and take forever to get moving, so the cars banked up behind take even longer to be able to move. Even worse when it's a turn arrow with a very short sequence, you can end up waiting for a couple of changes of lights around here.

Yes, all over Kent and Surrey there are hundreds of men with a death wish lurking on every windy country road imaginable. They also sometimes wave you ahead even on blind bends! It's been said before but so clearly a male privilege. Yet they are the ones who get wound up about 20mph zones and ULEZ when in their cars!

The parents who amble back down the path after dropping the kids at school. There is no room to overtake and when you're trying to get to work, but are stuck behind a slow group it is so frustrating.

People who are outraged that you don't want their sticky toddlers all over you on public transport.

Oh yes, and people who post their crappy old furniture with "Come and get it today otherwise it's going to the tip". As if we should feel guilty about it.

Bradley Walsh really gets on my tits when somebody gives a correct answer to a reasonably difficult question on The Chase and he says " Good answer!" I shout "It's not a good answer, it's the correct answer!"

People who turn the DC's swimming lesson into a family outing. Our pool has very limited seating poolside (two benches and a couple of plastic chairs), yet every week there are at least one or two families who turn up en masse with loads of hangers on and hog all the seating. Two parents, one or two siblings and yesterday they turned up with two grandparents in tow to watch Little Jimmy have his lesson. Anyone would think he was racing in the Olympics or something rather than practicing for his 5m badge

Twits who just sit at the lights when they've turned green...

I had one of those yesterday, when I was cycling. I said, "It's in green!" as I went past and he at least had the good grace to look embarrassed, as he looked up from his phone.

That sounds like one of those things that would have driven me insane anout my mum even though it’s actually totally adorable, I loved your post!

SO many. Noisy eaters and breathers. Sitting or standing too close to me. Give me some space! Leaving crumbs and splashes around, like I'm the only one who can pick up a sponge. Carelessness (being heavy handed and damaging things), wet towels being dried by hanging them up on a hook rather than spreading them out so that they will actually dry.

It feels good to let this out.

I had to exit the train at Newcastle during rush hour 3x a week for a year. Somehow almost every trip, the same large businessesman tried to shove in through the door before I could get off. (I was by the door ready for first off as on double crutches as otherwise I literally could not get off). I try not to swear on public but eventually I decided to barrel off INTO him each time saying 'Fing MOVE'. It took 3 times (3rd time I was cheered by other passengers too).

Slightly niche, I'll grant you, but I would add contestants on gameshows who are about to begin an important round of questions or big finale - those who, when the host asks "Are you ready?" answer "As ready as I'll ever be!!!!", as if they thought up something amazingly witty and original to say, rather than a massively irritating cliche.

Or when the host asks a male contestant what he’ll do with the money and he replies, “Oh, I’m sure my wife will have some plans for it!” with a hearty laugh. Why do these trivia geniuses marry these financially abusive harpies?!

Don't you just wish the police would appear beside all the phoning-while-driving idiots?

Saying 'I'm a poet and I didn't know it' after inadvertently saying something that rhymes.
Yes ! and when someone has a hole in their top/sock and quips 'I'm so holy now !!'
Also -
-Loud people (looking at you man on train I had the misfortune to sit near)
-When people (usually men with Very Important jobs 🙄do that thing where they're saying goodbye to someone and walk backwards into a crowded area without looking and then crash into you, then act like its your fault! sooo annoying! I had a 6 year old kid at school drop off and two stupid men do that to me in one day. The kid was the only one who apologised! (and the only one I wouldn't have expected to - they're only a kid fgs) but the men . . .grrr . ..

I have assistance booked. They've sometimes had to tell people to wait

-Talking with a mouth full of food. I don't want to see the food mushed up in your mouth, nor have bits spat out me at when you continue to talk
-Referring to 'The CoviT'
-The term 'like I said or as I said' when they never said it beforehand!
MIL, I'm looking at you for all these. 🙄

My DP does this and it drives me batty, especially since he’s the tidy one! Every single time I go to the toilet, the toilet roll is on the side out of reach rather than on the toilet roll holder.
