I’ll go first: For me the word, “hubby”…. No idea why. And I’ve acknowledged it’s irrational, so….

At work there's a cupboard where crockery is kept: a pile of dinner plates, a pile of large bowls, a pile of side plates - you get the picture. Who, in their right mind, thinks, "Oh, there's a pile of dinner plates, I know, I'll put this small bowl on that pile."?
Why?
Why?
Why do they do that?!
As you can probably tell, I get irrationally angry about it.

Local Facebook posts - and the subsequent manufactured rage about £3 of pansies.

Hollybobbs and happybobby's

Crazy dim people at work in elevated positions that defy logic - promoted to avoid anyone having to managing them. Because they are psycho.

Those awful backpacks of horse meat mince.

Fake food allergies - an intolerance is not an allergy and anyone would be sick if they ate two large bars of dairy milk you t**t.

Those what ?
Those awful backpacks of horse meat mince.
We're are you doing your shopping? 😃

I agree with the 110% crap , when a new company took over my contract the boss kept on saying thing like ww will give you 110% of our knowledge and expertise if you give us 110% of your effort.
I wanted to tell him to stfu.
Not only is your maths crap , all of us that you are talking to have been doing this job for at least 8 years most like me have been at it for 15 + years so we know what we are doing .
And you are not going to get more than 50% of me because I have a life outside work.
But I sat there like a good muppet and kept quiet 😇

When I go to lock my door and there is already a key in the other side.

When I’m driving and a bottle starts rolling around on the floor.

Chewing with mouth open, grinding teeth. Any mouth noise. Or tapping, or scrapping rough plates with a knife. I think I mostly dislike people... I like dogs and cats.

Being harassed for feedback every time I eat out, buy anything online (seller plus courier wanting feedback), have a haircut etc. I understand it helps businesses and it's great to reward genuinely good service but just feels like extra work.

The song I just want to dance the night away by the Mavericks.

Being harassed for feedback is annoying I agree. What really annoys me is that ebay hound me to put feedback as 'it's what ebay is all about' and 'it provides invaluable help to customers/buyers.' Yet on the 8 or 9 occasions I have put a NEGATIVE, they have deleted it. Every single time. After the last time I put a (well deserved) negative, and they deleted it, I decided they would get no more feedback from me - ever. Don't hound me for feedback, and then delete it when it's negative, because the seller has thrown their toys out of their pram and stamped their feet.

See also: being harassed to do surveys. Loads of companies do this. eg; Barclays/Barclaycard. Paypal, various storecards, and Argos card ... Argos card had a spate of sending me surveys about once a month. There'd be about 40 questions. And I'd answer, say, question 1, and then there'd be sub-questions. So 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D and 1E. So I'd answer 1A, then it'd say, why have you given this answer?

When I tried to answer it would drop down again and say 'please tell us how we could improve.' 'Please tell us what you particularly liked about this.' 'Please tell us what you'd recommend.' And I'm still on question 1 - subquestion 1A at this point.

I got to about question 8 on the survey once. 24-25 minutes in so far, and just bailed. It was ridiculous! And Argos card aren't the only ones that do this! Some people get paid lots of money for doing surveys, and here am I spending nearly half an hour of my life on barely a fifth of the survey and getting paid nothing for it. jog on!

People that say 'look' at the start of a sentence

Oh yes, this! So bossy. I had to stop listening to a BBC sounds podcast called (I think) 'When it hits the Fan' because one of the two presenters said 'look' at the start of most of his proclamations.

People using aerosol deodorant in a public space such as the changing room at daughter's swimming lessons. We don't all want to breathe it in thanks.

I'm not in the least religious, but anyone spelling God with a small g.
He should always be referred to with a capital H also.

Young teens wearing balaclavas terrorising the estate I live in. Some even younger. They know they're untouchable and have zero fear. It's widespread across Wirral. They can commit arson, physical attacks against other kids or adults, throw bricks though the window of any house they feel like. The police can't deal with them and most often, don’t even try.

Oneearringlost · 23/10/2024 00:10

The overuse of exclamation marks. I hate them.

Shityshitybangbang · 23/10/2024 00:16

People saying oh Lordy!

Same with My team, meaning family
people eating loud.
wispering on tv
adverts
Drivers not signaling.

ScottBakula · 23/10/2024 02:09

@Chucklit by no means whatsoever is that irrational, it must be horrible to live somewhere like that with kids ruling the streets.

I was in a shop the other day. Changing rooms locked, had to go and find someone to unlock. Then, went to the till to pay, no queue girl already standing at the desk. She wouldn't serve me I had to go to the other till downstairs. I hate the lack of service in this country

Pants, frocks and slacks and slips .

And specs. Arghhhh

People who tailgate.
People in BMW cars (because they're the worst drivers).

Mirrrors · 23/10/2024 02:45

All the abbreviations on here (dc etc) annoy me more than ‘hubby’, and I can’t stand that word 😂

People who have baby showers. Excuse to get free presents. Oh, and then proceed to do a gender reveal. So over the top

This one I don’t get, because buying your friend or relative presents for their baby and having a little party to celebrate them just seems like a nice thing to do

EvvyLannis · 23/10/2024 02:55

The words meal, yummy and bubs
Lenny Henry
’aaand breathe’ - no, fuck off.

hellywelly3 · 23/10/2024 03:13

People who refer to themselves as “The surname”. Especially when it’s close relatives.

They need to ban balaclavas
