Small niggling annoyances.

Raz · 16th November 2003, 17:10

What are the small things that irritate you when you see them but most of the time you don't care. Think, 'lifes simple pleasures' thread but opposite.

New car smell.

Sorting a bowl of cereal and finding there's no clean spoons.

When you eat chips and you get a sweaty one, you know the ones, the one that squelches when you bite it andf it's just fat. Ruins the whole thing.

Just drifting off to sleep, then all of a sudden you need to piss.

'Guesstimate'

Clearing a really hard game and all you get is a 'congratulations!!!... game over'. (think, prince of persia).

CD player batteries run out just when you're getting on the bus.

When someone doesn't bother to finish off that last gulp of juice/milk in the jug and puts it back in the fridge.

Actually, I have had that bad habit for a while....

Dental Hygiene. What a pain in the ass.

To be honest, one of the biggest bitches in life is when you manage to clog the tiolet with a very small piece of poop.

tor528 · 16th November 2003, 17:42

...And the toilet overflows, and everyone thinks you're some sort of huge-shitting toiletpaper-wasting freak.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 16th November 2003, 18:09

People that habitually neglect using their turn signals. They're there for a fucking reason, people!

NJK · 16th November 2003, 18:33

people driving 25 in a 35mph zone( old couples, grandma can't drive but keeps telling grandpa he's speeding

WomanOfHeart · 16th November 2003, 21:21

People who won't let you merge into traffic during rush hour. The traffic is already stop and go! Is not letting me ease in front of your really going to make that much of a difference for you?

Even worse: Someone empties the carton, and still puts it back in the refrigerator. You go in for some orange juice and the goddamn thing is empty!

DrKillPatient · 17th November 2003, 01:10

I HATE!!! when I find someone moved my KY jelly. It makes me think? What did they use it for? What did they touch before they reached for MY jelly?

NO ONE TOUCHES MY JELLY!!!! AURGH!!!!

White Raven · 17th November 2003, 05:59

Yes, the battery thing SUCKS. I know, because I swear my CD player is like an extended piece of my body now, I ALWAYS have it with me...

When your mother orders 3 pizzas, two really fucking gross kinds that you absolutely hate, and 1 of the kind you like. You eat maybe 4 pieces, then go to bed...
Next morning, you open the fridge to pack your lunch and are really counting on some cold pizza, and open the pizza box...
And your mother has managed to fucking eat, in 1 night, the rest of YOUR entire LARGE pizza, and half of her own fucking box of nasty shit, which is precisely the kind you fucking hate and will never eat!! I BLOODY WELL HATE THAT!!!!

CD/DVD's not right side up in their cases. *Eye twitches*

PEOPLE WHO CHEW WITH THEIR MOUTHS OPEN, FOR GOD'S SAKE MAN, SHUT YOUR TRAP AND EAT PROPERLY!

People who think they know absolutely everything about Japanese and say they're 'otakus' and claim to speak Japanese, when all they do is run around overusing the same 3 words, 'baka' 'kawaii' and '-san/kun/sama' Then when you correct them on something Japanese, they flip out and never speak to you again, even though you were fucking right all along.
Bastards.

When you take a sip of orange juice and all the pulp has gone to the botton and it looks real gross.

When you forget your motherfucking keys, make the hour trip home from school, and can FUCKING SEE THEM ON THE BLOODY COUNTERTOP THROUGH THE LOCKED SLIDING GLASS DOOR, and it's pissing down rain, and it's freezing, and your coat and gloves are wet, and you have a cold, and you have to go pee, and you're hungry.

Overpriced shit. Claire's is a big rip-off! I went there to find a new wallet (Desperately needed one) and they were all $11+ BITCH!! I bought a fifteen dollar wallet that's blue corduroy and has hello kitty on it, it's pretty cool mind you, BUT FIFTEEN DOLLARS??? FUCKING THEIVES!

Advertisements where the chicks orgasm. What the hell? What is that commercial advertising anyway? Some kind of shampoo? I used that shampoo, and I didn't come in the shower, and no monkeys and cockatoos started talking. I want my money back.

Raz · 17th November 2003, 06:57

Hahahahahahaha.

That is all.

edit:
ok it isn't all

Definately agree about the keys.

But balancing an empty coke can on a fence, throwing stones at it and hitting it first time is satisfying.

Chirstmas tv adverts.
Basically add a christmas tree, a cheap song in the background (usually 'i wish it could be christmas, every day' because that's oh so fashionable) and add 'this christmas at [name of shitty company]' on the end of the dialogue.

Doll adverts (scary)

People who carry mirrors around with them

When you wait an hour for a bus in the cold and it's full/just drives past for no apparent reason

When you lie awake in bed, really tired, knowing that you have to be up early the next day, but you just can't go to sleep. And you don't want to get up becase you're so tired. But sleep won't come. Damn you insomnia, making me post at half 7 in the morning and all...

edit 2:

And that damn singing fish plaque.

I HATE THAT FISH!

lil vixen · 17th November 2003, 12:17

When the guys in my house leave the toiiet seat up, or miss when they pee and its every where but in.
I hate when people chew with their mouth open. damn chewin' cows.

People who slam on their breaks for no reason at all.

Oh yea this one gets me all the time at home. Taking off their shoes and leaving them in the middle of the room. ARGHHH!

Bilbo Baggins · 17th November 2003, 15:34

Girls who leave the toilet seat down.

s1138 · 17th November 2003, 16:05

i agree with everything you all have said

how about when driving, and traffic is slowing, cause a lane is closing..and some fucker comes speeding up the lane till right before it closes, then cuts over causes everyone else to have to stop..

stupid IT people at school who dont know anything.

Rellik · 17th November 2003, 16:36

Heh, I knew the toilet seat argument would come up

@Raz: that bed sleep thing I agree 100%

Waking up in the morning with a slight headache and thinking "oh i'll just sleep it away" and it doesn't go away or it gets worse, and you end up oversleeping in the process. :grr:

ElChevelle · 18th November 2003, 01:10

I've posted this before but it relates to the last gulp thing:
We once went to lunch at Pizza Hut when I worked for Kodak.
We ended up taking a whole pizza with us back to work and had plans of eating it at last break. I put it in the break room refridge but upon returning for last break, some asshole had eaten the whole thing leaving the tiniest slice as if to say "eat me"
I was more pissed than if they'd eaten the whole thing.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 18th November 2003, 01:33

I would have gotten that thing dusted for finger prints and/or DNA samples to find out who the sorry fucker was... then I'd take that last little slice of pizza, and shove it up his ass.

ElChevelle · 18th November 2003, 02:28

I sure as hell wasn't going to eat it.

Raz · 18th November 2003, 13:45

Buttons where zips should be on jeans.

c2R · 18th November 2003, 20:02

I always am annoyed when I buy a mini cheesecake from Tescos and there's no spoon. Even though it says it's got one inside it on the box. Argh!

ShyShy · 18th November 2003, 21:05

When someone drinks your last beer and not bothering to tell you. "And then they were banished to hell, for like, a really, really long time and stuff."

DragonSon · 18th November 2003, 21:32

When you get this really annoying customer who takes fucking forever to decide if they want a pound or three quarters of a pound of flounder. As Garfield says, "They should be drug out in the street and shot."

Doing the little dance, which makes it harder to unbutton them. End up unbuttoning the top button and ripping them open quickly.

People from AA that jam thier literature and "You have a disease" bullshit down my throat when I have a beer. A Beer. Whether it's true or not, you being a complete asshole in my face about it isn't going to make me care. It's going to earn you a punch in the fucking eye.
Atheists and Christians that Try to turn me over to thier beliefs with stunningly predictable conversation.
Communists who turn every conversation into a political example. "Look asshole, I don't care what philosopher you follow, let me finish my goddamn drink! And you, AA boy, shut the fuck up."

ShyShy · 19th November 2003, 03:45

Brain farts. THOSE are annoying cause they happen all too often with me.

Rellik · 19th November 2003, 03:52

no kidding, especially when you are trying to remember some silly bit of trivia and it just bugs you and bugs you until it either hits you minutes later or you end up researching it.

especially problematic when you are trying to remember something when talking to someone.

Raz · 19th November 2003, 15:21
