Things you hate.

[divorcinganabsolutewanker]

We've had 2 birthdays in work today and I didn't join in with the singing of happy birthday. I hate it. Have a great day and all that but I don't feel the need to go and join in.

I also hate Christmas, it's a waste of money. Love the time with family but the rest of it can fuck off.

I also hate going for a wee and stopping for diesel.

What do you hate?

I fucking hate jingle bells over everything in December. Fuck off with your jangly ear busters.

Pandora. Uggs. Stanley cups.

Need to add things that beep. My Dad has a new expensive Duux smart heater now because the thing honks 1 or 2 times with every instructions, honk honk. Also the leds light up my bedroom like it's Blackpool. He likes it and his hearing is poor so it suits him.
Took apart my Kitchenaid kettle, loudest honker I have known, so loud there's websites dedicated sharing how to stop it honking. Also de-honked a dishwasher. Down with uneccessary honking.

No particular order

The Microsoft teams ring tone

My SIL and her even more awful partner

Any form of animal cruelty (including keeping a rabbit in anything smaller than your front room!)

Helplessness

Dads doing the absolute bare minimum of parenting and expecting praise, even worse, being praised

The pressure of Christmas (not just financially but having to see people)

How insurance firms do anything and everything to avoid paying out

People who talk shit to children

Loads more tbh

Slow people who take up loads of space - if you want to be slow then fine but get out of the bloody way!!

'Christmas is for children.' 'Birthdays are for children'. Omg if you don't like them then fine but literally no they're not.

People who check their phones in the theatre or cinema, especially if it's a man checking the footie scores - it's embarrassing that so many grown adults can't go without their phones for just a few short hours.

When people vape indoors, you can't go to a club or a concert anymore without someone blowing fruity smoke everywhere - at least smokers know they have to go outside! Vapers are so pathetic it winds me up!

Getting on a rammed train and people keeping their bags on seats, looking around like 'well ask me to move it then' JUST MOVE IT so people can sit.

We've got one of those and it's brilliant. Got ours reconditioned from Appliances Direct

Winter. It can get in the bin as far as I'm concerned.

The relentlessness of the daily drudge. Rinse and repeat, day in, day out. Years and years of it. Did it when I was married, still doing it as a carer for EP. Another candidate for the bin.

Labour government
Spiders
Harry Potter
Prosecco
Christmas
Grey decor
Bad manners

Apps. Aargh Apps.
An App for this and an App for that.
The endless complication of modern life.
Nothing is simple.
Want to renew this or change provider on that? Here's a hundred hoops to jump through.
And if you want to speak to a real person - good luck in:
A) finding a contact number (no I don't want a virtual assistant)
B) navigating the menu and sub menus to achieve speaking to a real person
C) holding nerve long enough to get to speaking to a real person
D) and then the bloody real person can't help you at the end of at all
Aargh

Cleaning.
having to repeat something I’ve said.
mispronounciation of Nuclear (how is it ever newkiller?)
The apparent entertainment some folk get from hearing farts.
Officiousness.
Ironing.
Winds. (6 mature beech trees were blown down just beyond our garden in a storm @ night, even tho awake I didn’t hear it happen)
Animal cruelty, there’s never an excuse, would the human/perpetrator like having that thing done to themselves.

Like a cross between a Roomba and a slinky.

Hate peeling potatoes
Hate drying myself after a shower
Hate getting dressed up for a big occasion out
Hate putting away the shopping
Hate driving at night

Tourists. We all have to be tourists at points in our lives but there’s a way to be a respectful tourist and a dickhead tourist. Dickhead tourists are the ones who just have zero self awareness at all. It’s like they forget people actually live in that city full time and have jobs to get to or kids to drop at school.

I understand the architecture is beautiful and you want to stop to take selfies for instagram but like please don’t forget the existence of other humans around you who have seen the buildings 1000 times and want to get past. And ffs please don’t just stop dead out of nowhere in the middle of a pavement.

Also hate bright LED headlights

People who hear or see you approaching when running on a path and make no attempt to move so you can get past

People with untrained dogs off leads who run up to you when you’re running and could easily cause you to fall and then the owners just laugh it off like it’s nothing

Cyclists cycling side by side- this should be illegal

Loud car engines- can’t wait until everyone has a quiet EV

My Dyson cordless vacuum, it’s a heap of shit

The fact no one in my house washes cutlery up so there’s always a pile of cutlery in the sink

Asda’s prices. I fucking hate Asda’s prices, like irrationally so. WHY THE FUCK IS IT £5.43…

Dogs.

There’s the ocean, get in it. From a plane.

People who wear jogging bottoms in public when they are not actively doing an activity which requires them or have not recently finished said activity. Particularly men who see fit to wear cuffed ones with trainers.

Now that would be something,!

People who are late for no reasons except being too disorganised to be there on time.

Being expected to go into the office just to sit on teams calls all day which I could have done from home.

Deciding what's for dinner. I like cooking, hate deciding though.

Not being able to find anywhere to park near my house because others have parked badly (I don't mind nearly as much if it's just because there are lots of cars already parked, just when there would be enough space if others had parked more considerately)

And in the same vein, people who park forwards in car parks when they have tinted rear windows, making it really difficult for the driver of the car next to them to see past to know if anything is coming when they need to leave

Is it just honking you dislike, how are you with pinging? Or jonty tunes (my w/machine does this when it finishes a cycle).

I am definately with you on lights, hate all the array of standby lights on everything. Can't have them in the bedroom.

Some white goods can be deactivated to not beep , but how to do this function is usually found in the manual which makes it clear as mud.

Well that would be exhausting

People
People standing in the way I'm shops
People walking around having loud conversations on the phone

Probably been mentioned a few times but all of the well-known Christmas pop songs that are played incessantly from November onwards.
Shakey, Band Aid, Wham, Slade, Wizzard...I hate them all.
I like Christmas and Christmas carols but through sheer repetition I have come to loathe the music in shops and everywhere else in December.
