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.

Authors who use the word "padded" to mean "walked".

So fucking twee and cutesy. Cunts.

Who pissed on your cornflakes..ugh

I turned around and said...

People on busy streets looking at phones rather than where they are going

Facebook posts commemorating their grannies birthday- she would have been 147...

Curtains not be pulled back all the way. (Looking at you DH and FiL)

Light in hotel rooms - tv lights, safety light, alarm lights.. that you cannot turn off.

I know we are supposed to travel with a roll of black tape to put on them, but it's annoying and sometimes we forget to take the damn tape

People who misuse Reply All on group emails.
People who use any subject specific WhatsApp group to chunter on like it's their own personal tannoy about any minor tangential topic of their interest.
Young people with the faux jaded ennui of an eighty year old.

People who queue skip 'just to ask a quick question' when the question is not quick. At all. And followed up by multiple follow ups.

People in training sessions who say 'It's not so much a question, more of a comment', following it up with the ten chapters of the rambling content of their brain. Then look really pleased with themselves.

People who present by reading off a PowerPoint.

Cans without easy open ring pulls.

My cat.

Leggings after you've been swimming. Rubbery bastards.

Men who love to chip in with their viewpoint when women are discussing their experiences.

Actually, men, full stop.

This is incredibly unreasonable of me but adult women wearing white socks over leggings. Bonus irritation points if they're also wearing a puffer jacket.

It looks so try-hard and lame.

Are you very sure? I'm going to change how I pronounce this and I don't want to later find I've been had. In fact, I shall go and independently verify then will amend my ways. I thank you for your service.

Okay, validated. Off to practice. www.google.com/search?q=pronounce+mischievous&oq=pronounce+mischievous+&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyCggAEEUYFhgeGDkyBwgBEAAYgAQyBwgCEAAYgAQyBwgDEAAYgAQyCAgEEAAYFhgeMggIBRAAGBYYHjIICAYQABgWGB4yCAgHEAAYFhgeMggICBAAGBYYHjIICAkQABgWGB4yCAgKEAAYFhgeMggICxAAGBYYHjIICAwQABgWGB4yCAgNEAAYFhge0gEJNDg0M2owajE2qAIBsAIB&client=ms-android-motorola-rvo3&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8

The few people who microwave fish meals in the office 🤢 it stinks.

😂 Yes to all these!

Vinted buyers making ridiculous offers. If we wanted to give things away for free, we would. If we bother trying to sell them, we expect a reasonable price. Bargain a bit if you like, but some low offers are just silly.

Best ignore them so they don't come back with more ridiculous offers

My pet hate is people picking their ears in public, seemingly oblivious to how disgusting others might find it.
I have to give someone a lift who does this in my car and then examines the scabs he has pulled out of his ears. I try staring at him to make him stop, but he just carries on. It’s so grim.

'Tik Tock influencers' that do that strange nail tapping things on random objects they are showing you.

That one Sock that slips down the back of your foot, that even when you throw it away seems to magically turn back up.

Public bathrooms that have non touch water faucets that when you wave your hand under turns the water on at the same pressure as a fire hose so that your jumper sleeve gets wet.

My teenage Son who puts empty snack wrappers back in the cupboard.

I'm with you. Early on in our marriage my DH used to do this. I will not put my hand in manky water, so it means getting gloves on etc etc. Which takes time. So after the first time i told him not to, and that i would just ignore the sink if he did.

And after about 3 times of me leaving it (for 2 days the last time) he got the message and stopped.

tbh everything annoys me atm so I'm staying quiet.

Oh, and I have to add - my haunted travelling rug.

You live in the spare bedroom, rug. NOBODY goes in there. In fact the door is always closed otherwise the dog gets on the bed. So, given that half of you is shoved under the bed legs, and the top end is under the bedside cabinet - HOW THE HELL DO YOU MANAGE TO CREEP INTO HUGE WRINKLES? HOW? And then I can't get into the room because you've managed to bunch yourself up in the doorway and I have to force my way INTO A ROOM IN MY OWN HOUSE.

It's haunted, that has to be the answer.

Saying 'we're headed to..." Even more annoying than headING. Can't you just go there? No heads involved?

"Can I get..." 😬

The fact that it's raining AGAIN and I need to go and walk the dog after work. What ever happened to our crisp and cold weather? Come back!! PLeeease!!

I'm drying my hair anyway, so I use the hairdryer on my breasts and underarms, and direct it down my back as well. Two minutes will see you dry enough to get dressed, plus it feels lovely.

Does anyone remember that scene in Bladerunner when a replicant steps into a tube which puffs warm air to dry her?

I want one of those.

people who don’t cover their mouth when they cough

People aren't always trying to sound posh. Many people think it is correct ~ of course sometimes it is, the rest of the time it isn't but they don't know that.

when I arrive at the traffic lights and someone is already there but they haven’t pressed the button!

Twitter (refuse to call it X). Ever since that idiot bought it all I see are stupid people saying stupid stuff that they don't even believe in just because they want engagement. Just bots responding to bots. Sometimes I'll find an interesting fandom related thread but it's mostly just junk now.

You ok @NimbleHiker. Seems an awful lot of small things annoy you!
