Silly things that give you the rage

[Ontobetterthings]

Maybe its cos I'm peri but we were out for a meal and someone was eating chicken wings and being very meticulous about using a knife and fork to eat them and very slowly. It was holding up the next course for everyone.

Do you have any examples of getting the rage over something silly 🤣

I have misophonia. So I want to stab people in the eye multiple times a day...

People who complain about things and then reject any and all suggestions for how the things might be dealt with. Why not just admit that you enjoy pointless whinging?

Gogglebox when he says "... and his little sister Sophie" it makes me so fucking angry

My cardigan getting stuck on door handles.

My husband’s inability to shut cupboard doors or drawers.

I have really bad hayfever and frequently sneeze 4 or 5 times in a row. My husband does not have hayfever but sneezes loudly enough to wake the dead. You’d love us! 😂

Those chunky, over the head bluetooth headphones. You look stupid.

This would drive me insane. The first thing I do in a hotel is untuck the duvet, who wants to be all restricted while sleeping?

Oh me too. It’s like a red mist. Completely unreasonable 🤣

When people who don't recycle properly. I see my neighbours put everything under the sun in their recycle bin, and I have to fight the urge to sort it into the correct bins in the middle of the night 😂

Are you my husband? Regardless, sorry from a very dramatic sneezer.

My supposedly intelligent, university lecturer DH, puzzling over why his phone or tablet is, yet again, at 4% battery and about to shut down, when, yet again, despite there being numerous charging leads both up and downstairs, he, yet again, hasn't plugged the fucking device in to charge. I honestly think he thinks they charge from bloody fresh air. 🙄 Oh, and moaning about his cheapo shitty phone, when we have plenty of money for him to buy a half decent one, but he won't because he's a tight arse. Just buy a decent phone ffs, maybe then I wouldn't have to listen to you grumbling about your crap one. 🙄

People who watch video/play games at full volume on their mobile phones on a packed bus or train for whom it never crosses their minds that its seriously intrusive for everyone else. I feel like physically assaulting these people.

Passwords. Passwords everywhere required to do anything at all on the internet. And the need to save them down and create new ones and the endless ballache of it. I know they are needed and yes I know there are tools to store them it just makes life feel like you're walking through treacle.

Ugh. People doing that anywhere gives me the rage! Actually I hate being around most people when they’re eating. I don’t understand how anyone can make a noise no matter what they’re eating!! It could be something soft yet there will still be plenty of chomping noises…aaarrggghhh I’m getting myself het up now 😂

Obviously.

If that makes sense?

uptone? after every sentence

When someone takes a large gulp of their drink and then slams down the mug or glass and says "Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!"

I know 4 people who do it, all women. So grating.

I asked one why she does it, when she said that's just how she sneezes, I asked if she'd do that in a Church, at a funeral or in the GP waiting room, turns out not!

Saying RIGHT for no reason at all. Meant to show assertiveness or such by some, but just looks and sounds silly.

People who nod along saying yeah, yeah, yeah when you haven't finished your sentence.

Peole who stand and hover over an empty seat on the tube, so blocking it from others. Sit or stand elsewhere!

My husband’s inability to shut cupboard doors or drawers.

Are you pronouncing that differently from "draws"?

What's a cheap phone? I've never paid over £170 for a phone and they've all done everything I have needed. Genuine question.

Me too. I openly admit to being a hypocrite in this area because I do use reviews myself and find them helpful. But I just can't be bothered to do them myself. I am a terrible human being!

Yes. "I personally..." well who else could you be? I struggle to find a time when the word "personally" isn't redundant, unless perhaps someone was to say "speaking personally and not of the the organisation who I work for..." or similar.

I remember someone telling me "I personally prefer an automatic car, myself"...I guess it's very important to them, seeing how they felt the need to mention three times who they were speaking about.

I'm a pissy old git who won't tell in principle.

I'm not going to argue that point as I don't know you, but I will say that I believe everyone has the right to remain silent, and that when a business has had my money for product or service, I am not giving up my time on top of what I've paid to help them make their service better. Unless of course it's like Argos and Screwfix where they put me in with the chance of winning in a prize drawer. Pronounced the same as "draw" in this house.

"We value your feedback!". Do you really? I value my time, and if the service has been so shit that wild horses wouldn't drag me back, you can be even more sure I will never review your business so that everyone else can benefit from it.

Were.

Eh? If you’re saying that’s the wrong spelling, it’s not. Unless I’m misunderstanding?

I'm taking the piss, and not out of you, but it's been a running-theme throughout this thread that "drawers" and "draws" are pronounced differently.

I - like many- cannot fathom out how the two words could be pronounced differently, but many others have disagreed.

Oh gosh I know - I now put my super market trolley behind me for a buffer zone - and in dunhelm!

a friend once said I just step backwards and go “oh sorry I didn’t know you were RIGHT behind me”
