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?

At least its not Marmite......nNYAAARRGH!

Forms, of any form.

Parents who think their loud, screaming bratty kids are more important than everyone in their vicinity and that everyone else should suffer because of them. I was on a 13 hour flight last week behind a family with 3 young kids (I can't think why anyone would consider this).

It was a night flight, they spent the entirety of it performatively parenting their spawn in loud sing-songy voices despite everyone around them trying to sleep. They were also the only people in the cabin who kept their fucking light on. My seat was repeatedly kicked with the parent only asking her daughter to stop once.

The dad kept swanning over and also performatively parenting in a booming voice, telling his little boy to be quiet but ironically, his voice was the loudest of them all. The worst was when we were landing and the mother encouraged the little girl to look at all the planes/surroundings out of the window and shriek "AEROPLANE". This was alongside a baby shrieking for most of the flight who was clearly in pain. My DH and I were absolutely seething at the end.

2.Cars that park on pavements
You know so you have to walk into
a busy road to get around them.

1. The Lost Consonant People

The say site'in for exciting. And moonity for community. Sound like a real bunch of munters.

1. Not having Servants.

1. Not having a heated indoor swimming pool.

1. Apps of any kind

Ta ta for now
Xxx

Yes that's it. It's everywhere. Let's add in:

Parking - download and app, no signal so walk off to find one. Worry about now being in car park, caught by ANPR but unable to pay.

Supermarket - yes I'd like your offers.
Of course you can have them: download the app; you have to use our wifi to do it because there's no signal. Login; forgotten password loop etc.

Everything is so stressful

The fecking train WiFi! How come it works well enough for their card machines to take payment, but not for my news feed to load?!

Deciding what to eat for dinner every night,
I was the same.
Now I use the Ai app on my phone to do the meal planning for me. I just put my request in, eg how many meals, any meat meals or veggie ones and it's done. I love it. I usually ask for 7 days meal, 3 x a day upto 1500 calories, 4 veggie meals .
Or 5 days of healthy slow cooker meals.

My hate is emptying the dishwasher but dh normally does it when he is maki h breakfast for me.

I'm sure there's more

Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a go!

Ditherers and faffers.
Goat’s cheese
’Milk and cookies’ for Santa/Father Christmas! Fair enough in the US, but PLEASE not in the U.K.!

My late mum hated how ‘ Americanisms’ ( as she called it) crept in to everyday things! I guess we are influenced by many American shows and films to change some words. She also hated the fast food places that has eveything you eat or drink out of as throw away. She may have had a point though considering how much waste there must be.

Another one has just popped up.
Beggy charity adverts, wanting your money for all on sundry (especially worse at Christmas!) and no word of thanks in the advert, in the hope you might be daft or rich enough to donate the vast amounts of money they're wanting from you!
If I put an advert out begging for money, I'd at least have the decency to add "thank you" at the end!

Charities annoy me. A local one to me pays its top bosses six figures. They argue you need decent people in those jobs to raise the money, but it feels wrong.
ds 2 works for one and donations are down , but when you hear things like this , it makes you wonder.

Also, even if you gave everything you own to a charity cause ( big or small ) the following week they would want more. My late mum was brought up in poverty in the 20s and 30s and can remember the appeals for charity abroad when they could gave done with it themselves. Plus the red nose charity is still after cash and some places are still without proper running water.
I always feel that something has gone wrong in so many sectors of the charity causes, who actually gets all the money they raise?

Drying a wet dog after being out in the rain

I love this thread, I feel seen and heard! I thought it was only me who almost has a melt down when I find myself cleaning the kitchen yet again, muttering under my breath on bin night, wanting to cry when I change the bed, and being driven to low level insanity by apps. And as for the state of this country and in fact the rest of the world, I can only deal with that in small doses. The other day I worked out that since my marriage ended and despite having a couple of relationships after that I have basically done everything and paid for everything house wise for nearly 40 fucking years and I am beyond sick of it now. I sometimes contemplate living on tea and toast but I know that this is not healthy, very temptiing though

Picking up a bottle of shampoo and conditioner, taking them to the till and realising I’ve got two bottles of conditioner or two shampoos!

I made a donation to Maggies in memory of a neighbour who died from cancer, a one off to honour her and it was what her family had requested. They now email and write to me, it makes me feel low level guilt.

I did this just this week, except I got them all the way home before realising! It makes me so disproportionately, insanely cross.

I missed out attention seeking posts on Facebook. Anyone who checks into a hospital but won't say what's wrong or posts a video or picture of them crying or looking sad should have an automatic ban for a month.

😂

I have thought of another one. I hate it when people refuse to move from a seat that i have reserved on a train. Then there the people who put coats on seats. I didn't realise that coats needed a seat. I hate it when people persistently ring until i answer just so that they can endlessly drone on about their trip to sainsburys. It never occurs to them that i didn't answer the phone straight away because i was in the shower.

Sloppy chewers. Open-mouth chewers are the worst, but there are also people who still manage to swill food noisily with their mouth closed. People who can't chew without intermittently opening their full mouth with a loud "mchhllohm" sound.

People who moan "mmm" as they're chewing. If I can hold back from screaming at these fuckers, then surely they can hold back from going "mmm" in the first place.

Utterly sickening, and completely disappointing that they've reached adulthood still behaving like that.

People belowing into their phones on the bus, I have often travelled the whole 30 minute journey into town being forced to listen to someone who seems to be able to yell for the whole time without pausing for breath

Forgot how much I hated this aswell until today- walking (actually running) through town and the bloody people who stop you for considering donating to their charity. I'm not mean, I give to plenty of charities but dont friggin ask me how I am today, to engage me in asking to set up a direct debit for your charity! Feck off!! I'm shopping FFS, its p'ing down with rain and you want to ask me a couple of questions and give you my bank details?!! If I want to donate, I will in my own time and in my terms. Whilst I'm on this I'll add that my MIL got totally inundated after she'd set up a direct debit to one, they then wanted to know if she would increase the amount she gave!!!. Just NO.
