Small things that annoy you light hearted

[NimbleHiker]

People who just grunt at me instead of giving me a straight answer to a simple question. It is not hard to say yes please or no thank you if i ask you if you want a drink.

At baggage reclaim. People who rush to stand directly inches away from the belt so nobody can get near to see their bag or have space to lug it off. JUST STAND BACK.

I am not sorry I whacked you on the legs when I pulled my bag off. FFS

People who pepper their speech with the word 'like'. The odd one is fine. But every other word is absolutely infuriating. And distracting so I often miss what they are actually saying.

Also people who pronounce anything as 'anythink' (relatively common near where I live).

See also:

'Youse' (yes I know it's a dialect thing)
'Should of' (this should be immediate jail time)
Using the wrong their / there / they're or were / we're (it's really not that hard to get right - obviously dyslexics get a pass)

Once I get to work and have to deal with people I'm sure there will be more 😂

Co workers who try to show me long videos of their kids doing something funny when im on my lunch break🤦‍♀️

I have so many;

-People that don't cancel their indicator after a roundabout
-People that suddenly stop in front of you,especially whilst in a supermarket
-People that block your lane during lane swimming because they want to swim side by side and have a natter
-People who think that they are competing in the Olympics,during lane swimming
-People who say "Guys"
-People who stand too close in queues
-People who park too close behind you,so you can't access your boot properly
-People who don't put the "seperator" down on the checkout counter,after they've loaded their shopping

I have millions more to add,but I'll leave it at that for now!

People who stop in a shop door way for a chit chat or to look for something in their bag.
people who can’t let go of their shopping trolly, hold onto it for dear life and take up about 10ft of shelving whilst they look for the best banana or whatever in a supermarket

People who buy huge cars they clearly can not drive to look flash. Usually with vain beefcake looking blokes in. Posers!

Thanks @Unhappyitis(great username). It does me too!

People who refer to themselves as Mum WRT their pet.

Influencers who start their video, and then decide to introduce themselves 10 seconds in. Totally breaks the flow of the video.

Omg me too! It’s a physical pain.

When people say things like 'sambo' or 'sarnie', even 'mayo' winds me up a bit if it's used constantly (if I hear it used once or twice by the same person it doesn't bother me too much but more than that and it will start to irritate me).

The current trend for comments like, "this is your invitation to..." on social media posts and marketing, when it's not actually an invitation, they're just telling you to do something.

DS not shutting the utility door-it lets the cold in!! (Ok so that may be a what’s irritating me RIGHT NOW)

People who expect me to do 10 tasks at once.

Emails that start with this is a gentle reminder. The word gentle is unnecessary.

Faffers.

Faffers in general, but Faffers in public transport and plane specifically give me the rage. You are not in a rush to board? Then wait for the very end of the queue and faff around, without blocking everyone else in the process. Then hopefully the staff will tell you to hurry up, there's a schedule to keep up with!

You are not in a rush to get out? Then sit the fuck down and stop blocking the aisle when people behind you are standing up, ,luggage in hand and ready to rush because unlike you they don't have all day.

And stick to one side when you walk so other people can run past you.

People who put their phone on speaker and then hold it flat in front of their face. Usually while in the supermarket or on public transport.

People saying "boils my piss" it makes me shudder 🥴

Peeling fruit, especially oranges

Emptying the dishwasher when something has slipped or has a recess on top and gets full of water then drips on you unexpectedly

Putting on and taking off a bra, especially sports bra

Blocking walkways. Dh I'm looking at you. He stops in a doorway or halfway up the stairs to look at his phone. He is a broad tall man and totally blocks the space. I've stopped being polite about it

You see, I would have to reply on behalf of the dog in a woofy, growl voice.

People who misuse 'myself ' or 'yourself' in sentences

People who stand next to each other on escalators so you can't walk past them if you're in a hurry.

Can I add, putting on a sports bra after a shower when you are still slightly damp...

I had genuine rage with mine the other day, because it's soft and unstructured and I kept putting my head through the wrong hole and then it all just bunched up around my back until I was writhing and howling like a raccoon trapped in a bin.

probably all of the above. best summarised as ‘people being inconsiderate and unobservant’. I get told I’m impatient but I go out of my way to avoid inconveniencing others - if you aren’t differently abled/elderly/with young kids then you should be doing the same.

But equally, people who end an 'ing' word with 'in'....Pritti Patel, I think you are a great person, but listening to you winds me up beyond all reason!

Opening a new bottle of milk.
