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.

When I'm on a walk, trying to photo a bird, and another person happens to walk/jog/drive past just at that moment and scare it off.

1. People spitting on the pavement 🤮

2.People getting ‘me’ and ‘I’ wrong’. Usually when they’re trying to sound posh.

‘Dear John, please forward the Excel spreadsheets to Susan and I’ 😡

My English teacher explained it so simply. If you’re unsure, just take out the other person. You wouldn’t say ‘Dear John, please send the spreadsheets to I’. Such a simple way to remember it that I don’t know why so many people find it so hard.

3.Then the use of ‘myself’, ‘yourself’. Normally by some salesperson trying to sell you something. Although, that one generally has me rolling my eyes as they tie themselves in knots with it 😂

Really slow people trying to get off the train first and blocking up both the train exit and then the platform. If you are going to be slow, just wait until everyone else has got off

You’d lose your mind at the noise my husband makes when he sneezes. His whole family are the same. Incredibly loud and annoying.

Loud eating
people who don’t know the correct way to use a roundabout
people on public transports speaking loudly on their phone- 2 hour train journey person behind me having loud conversation.
my husband being unbearably cheerful in early mornings and wanting to converse fully with me before coffee

Alexa.

Voice messages - I don't want to listen to you thinking about stuff. voice to text or text me.

You are wonderfully bonkers and I enjoyed this post, thanks ☺️😂

My husband making me a cuppa and not filling the mug enough. Completely unreasonable but it makes me seethe. If I’d wanted half a cup, I’d have asked.

Loving these.

Another one of mine (also noise related so I must be sensitive to it) is chirpy workmen. If I hear them loudly chatting, clattering, laughing, banging, radio on 😡 so unreasonable of me but just shut up. This again is 1000 times worse if it's before 10am

British tourists on holiday in places where I (as a Brit) have gone to escape 😂

The “Slowest Common Denominator”, people who expect others to slow down to their pace - without saying anything.

It’s OK for there to be two groups on a walk. If you find this little tourist attraction way better than you thought, but the others disagree that’s fine, offer to get back under your own steam. But to dawdle, on everything, negatively impacting on others, and then getting pissy when someone mentions it- fuck right off.

My husband does this! If I ask for a glass of water he finds the smallest possible glass and fills it half way 😂

Whistling. I hate it.

The way my inlaws clear their table and line their dishes up.

Surely the most efficient way is having all the plates on top of each other in order of size with the cutlery on top. Easy to see what you have to load the dishwasher.

But no with them it's cutlery between each plate. Mutiple single plates with a glass on top taking up more bench space. Every time i load the dishwasher at theirs you have to keep reorgansing the dishwasher cause you finding random dishes that need to be fit in somewhere.

Took an age to teach my husband the proper way.

I was actually just talking about this with my DD. We were at a busy airport and there were quite a lot of people walking round the airport, duty free, Spoons etc with their travel neck pillows on. Yh I know it saves space and I know it has absolutely no impact on me whatsoever (and it probably even feels nice and comfy), but it gives me The Rage! I can’t even work out why!!

People hanging things wrongly is a major bugbear for me too. However, I am sorry to inform you that your method of hanging boxers is also wrong. The fabric is thicker at the waistband so your peg contacting here will delay the drying process. Upside down and peg over the bottom of the leg bit. We discuss this a lot at my house.

Adverts for food that show close ups of said food. For some reason it absolutely disgusts me and makes me angry that they show food so close up that I can see all the squelchy bits. Totally unreasonable rage on my part, as they are food ads!

Women getting the train into London with their curlers in. We know that train comes straight from Essex.

People who tell you important news in chronological order rather than a summary of the most important things followed by the detail.
For example, when my sister was in hospital I did not need to know how the accident happened. Just tell me how she is and fill in the story later.

Bloody junk mail....the sign says no effing junk mail!!!????

I walk slowly due to a hidden disability. I will step to the side sometimes so people can overtake me but it is potentially an abelist thing to get annoyed at, just saying.

Bottle lids not coming fully off anymore.

• Slow bikes on country lane, aware of forming a long queue of cars, but never offering to stop in one of the many side areas to let the cars go past.
• People jumping on their phone during a conversation to check for accurate details of whatever it's discussed ('oh that actor, yes, he must be 67 years old...well let me check on google'). Then you don't know if you are supposed to carry on talking, or wait for the answer, and it's just kills the chat really.

People who put the empty toilet roll cardboard tube on the top of the toilet or on the sink when there is a perfectly good bin by the toilet
