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.

That's an ok thing to say as I agree it's a good place to be when it's raining or boiling it's the "shame you're in here' that gets me.
It's lovely that you're thinking that way because so many don't. There is a lot of repetition but I don't mind that.

People who respond with “No worries/problem” when you’ve described something that wouldn’t be a worry or a problem. See also “Fair enough” in response to something that could never have been considered unfair.

People who think you’re a snob because you don’t watch reality shows or soaps. I don’t watch either because you need to watch every episode and it really eats up your spare time.

Yet if you mention something more cultural, a documentary, a classical concert for example then you're a stuck up snob!

Or in restaurants, they let their sprogs wander round and expect others to admire and coo over them. Having told a couple of children to return to their table a couple of times on the third time I shouted GO AWAY and that distracted their breeders from their phones.

I work in a cafe… people who stir hot drinks for aaaages, clink clink clink - then the tapping of the spoon on the side of the cup! 😡😡

Allowing children to choose what they “ might like to try” when the place is bloody heaving (and no, we don’t do a bit of everything for them to try… for free) Fine when we’re not busy, dont mind at all - but when it’s peak lunchtime, that is not the time to arse about.
Look at the menu ( about 40+ items ) then think of something that we def haven’t got, nor never had (kedgeree, kippers, artichokes🫤) and throw a tantrum at me 🤷‍♀️

Yep, this ⬆️⬆️⬆️

Something I have done occasionally that irritates me is when I plug my phone in to charge it but forget to switch it on at the wall. I come back thinking I have a fully charged phone and its battery is dead.

People who walk around shops with a rucksack on. Mainly because it’s difficult to get past them in most aisles. 😠

Or in restaurants, they let their sprogs wander round and expect others to admire and coo over them.

Recently, in a Chinese restaurant where about 4yr old came to my table, took my chopstick and rubbed it back and forth across their nostrils- parents oblivious of course!
Returned to their table, then allowed to jump up and down on their chair with a glass in their hand- before it smashed all over the tiled floor. The family made no effort to move their chairs whilst the staff ran around trying to clear up the mess 😡

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

Yes, or failing that, a missile strike from a drone! Or GPS tracked filming of the malefactor and their number plate, a visit from Plod and confiscation of their phone on the spot.

You'd hate my Dad 😂

Dirty clothes not quite making the laundry basket - either next to the basket or teetering on the edge.

DH eats Muesli for breakfast most days and doesn't always rinse it well enough before he leaves for work, so by the time I wake/get up, its quite a bit harder to wash off.

Discreet/discrete
Bare/bear
Curb/kerb
🤬

People who don't thank you when you let them out in traffic.
It makes me unreasonably cross.

Or the woman who insists on parking her very large Mercedes jeep halfway up on the pavement directly across the road from the school gate as her little darling boy, aged 8 approximately couldn't walk 50 yards up the road where she could legally park.
To hell with the two wheelchair users who live on the road or the woman with severe disabilities who uses a rollator walker on that pavement most days.
.

Too many to list but one of the worst has to be singing along with the music playing in shops/supermarkets. It’s Asda, not a karaoke bar. I don’t need to hear your version of Tina Turner when I’m trying to do my shopping.

And the offenders can never sing as well as they obviously think they can…

People who go to enter a shop then stop dead just inside the doorway.
People who insist on talking to you when you're obviously on a phone call/got earphones in.
People who sneeze so loudly they make me jump out of my skin. Just why do they do this?! It's totally unnecessary.

FFS - and you are completely missing the point of the thread 🙄

My brother does this on the phone. Drives me mad! It’s just an affectation.

People playing videos or music on their phones without headphones can all fuck off the far end of fuck and fuck off a little further.

People who walk around in Central London three abreast holding hands.

My DH used to do this until I told him to shut the fuck up. I’d say STOP it! Frank Sinatra is doing ok on his own.’
I HATED it.

People who use the exit doors to enter my local supermarket, and vice versa, and who have the nerve to give ME a funny look as if I'm getting in their way.

There are now 'Exit/Entrance Only' signs on the doors. Doesn't stop them though.

People who don't squeeze the washing up sponge or dishcloth out and just leave it absolutely dripping wet lying in the sink so it doesn't get a chance to dry out and just festers. Then someone else comes along and pours their tea or coffee dregs into the sink on top of it. I don't get it.

People who just stand there when they get off the bottom of the escalator. They're the bottom rung as far as intelligence goes. Once i literally had nowhere to go as my way off was blocked by a couple of gormless types. I had no qualms about shoving past them.

If someone offers to take my cup or glass out to the kitchen to do me another drink, while I am grateful for that, I cringe if they pick my mug or cup up by the rim, right where I'm going to drink from. Especially if they smoke, or they've got a cold, or I've seen them scratching inside their ear 5 mins earlier. Urgh...

People who kick off their shoes just inside the doorway as they come in the house. Why can't they put them out the way? ie. DH. Even the kids know to put them at the side out of the way.

Customers who dump chilled and frozen products on shelves or in the other temp section (chilled in frozen and vice versa)

Do they realise that this is waste?

YOU picked the item up. YOU changed your mind. YOU put it back!

People without dogs who go to the dog beach and sit by the access ramps / steps with children who don't like dogs and who then get in a stew because we dare to have a dog with us on the dog beach and need to use the ramps/steps.

Go to the people beach for god's sake.

. That's me
