To ask what gives you the rage that probably shouldn't

[Tearsinheavens]

For me it's when I'm sleeping in, maybe at the weekend or if I've worked a late shift and I hear cars going past in the morning around 8am and they are blasting music. It gives me a desire to want to slap them. I know they are well within their rights to do so, and therefore I am being unreasonable but I am just convinced they are annoying people inside 🤣 I'm not a morning person. Obviously.

My incompetency to turn a strappy vest type top the right way round when it’s inside out. Often I will take several attempts and still be wrong so I’ll give up and end up leaving it even though the annoying label on the side seam then flaps against my arm! Grrrrr

Litter and fly typing.Makes my blood boil.
People who sit with their engines idling. Especially school mums parked badly and forcing me to walk children through exhaust fumes.
Currently Scott Mills saying Love you to blooming everybody. And although I'm sure she's perfectly lovely the voice of his sidekick /traffic person Ellie Not rational I know.
Myself .Putting jumpers on back to front when I'm rushing.
And getting a kink in the hosepipe -although that will be irrelevant now as hosepipe ban.

99% of people these days.

I can never put things back into a box how it came out and I’ve been known to lob such items across rooms before now! Lol

Hahaha 😂

A driver whose car I let out in traffic and they don’t have the manners to thank me with a wave or a flash of their warning lights.
Grrrr
Someone who doesn’t say thank you when I hold the door open for them.

Unnecessary overfamiliarity and fake empathy in emails from randoms: "I hope you're having the best day!" etc. You don't know me from Adam, don't pretend to care what kind of day I'm having.

People who walk three abreast on the pavement in busy London streets

Conversations about tennis. I find it so boring it makes me want to cry. I dread Wimbledon.

People who are ridiculously over-officious about organisation and planning and expect the world to be like this. Being chased repeatedly to confirm the finer points of an event four or five months in the future.

Unnecessary incidental detail on stories which isn't relevant to the overall story (its not really relevant if your boss went to the shops before announcing a bunch of people were being sacked. Get to the point.

Ohhh yes, @Thepeopleversuswork - the anecdote that starts “It was last Wednesday - or was it Thursday. No Thursday was when I visited Edna, so it must have been Wednesday - anyway I went to Tesco - or maybe it was Sainsbury’s - actually, it was Morrisons, because they had a special offer on beetroot……..” - and you have lost the will to live before you even get to the start of the actual story!

People telling me a long boring anecdote about one of their friends who I've never met, and couldn't care less about!

Unnecessary overfamiliarity and fake empathy in emails from randoms: "I hope you're having the best day!" etc. You don't know me from Adam, don't pretend to care what kind of day I'm having.

I can’t stand any work email that starts with ‘Hope you’re well’ or any similar bollocks. Just get to the point and stop this nonsense.

I also HATE when emails state ‘yourself’ or ‘myself’ when they mean ‘you’ or ‘me’. I immediately mark their cards as idiots.

Oh shit, I do this!

May have to change my ways

People feeding seagulls.

I live by the coast so we have lots of gulls. Great big ones with beady eyes.

Seagulls do not need to be fed greasy chips and bits of your stale fooking bread. They literally have an endless buffet of clams, sea snails and whatever else they eat naturally.

I see it all the time, people throwing left over chips, the seagulls swoop down screeching and swarming the area. I can see other people close by having to move. Most little kids don’t like it either.
It’s not cute or funny.
Then people wonder why seagulls often swoop down to steal food out of your hands and can act aggressively.

Honestly, I sometimes feel like saying “Are you thick?”

Whistling...really gives me the rage. Please just don't!

@WhistlingStraits

Unfortunately I work in an industry which runs on toxic positivity and platitudes so this sort of thing is endemic and the worst thing is its actually read as rude if you don't do it. It drives me nuts.

Middle aged men

Cyclists

Tories

I am less easily enraged than I used to be though. I think I was in a perpetual state of near explosion throughout my forties.

I suppose saying ‘ hope your well ‘ etc is just being polite. Of course , nobody really cares if you are ok or not and everyone knows this too!

Gosh, they’d all think me a complete misery guts then because I refuse to do it.

My female friends also know to never add an ‘x’ to any text to me as that infuriates me too 😂

And you're still married to him?! 😉

I'm with you on all of that, apart from I do hang the families boxers by their side seams as I think if I peg it on the waistband it will make the elastic furl up

The babies toys going off in the toy box when I’ve just settled down to watch tv and too lazy to get back up but they keep going off it really annoys me that they don’t get the hint and just shut up!!

When people say arks or axe when they’re trying to say ‘ask’. Drives me insane and it’s so common when you’ve noticed it.

People saying treat ( to rhyme with get) when they actually mean treated.

People eating loudly. Just eating frankly.
People with a loud laugh.
My jumper getting stuck on the door handle.
Teenagers sniggering and giggling for what I assume are idiotic reasons .
People parking VERY slowly and clumsily.
The list goes on...

I’ve bough some Loop earplugs so I can avoid wearing sounds! They make me want to punch things!

I can live with "hope you're well".

I just can't stand it when people who've never clapped eyes on you pretend to be your mate. There's social etiquette and there's been totally fake.

People calling pets ‘fur babies’.

People talking about having ‘a cheeky wee’ anything (is this just in Scotland?)
