Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

I once told a teacher who complained at my spider scrawl and my slow writing that I could write better in caps, but she said that wasn't acceptable; I should write "properly" (joined up) and much neater and faster.

I told her she could have Neat, Fast, or Joined Up, but would have to choose two of the three.

She put me in detention.

I have a very idiosyncratic Block Caps style which I adopted the day I left School and refused to change; ironically, lots of people now really like it and I frequently get complemented on it. It's also almost indistinguishable from my dad's handwriting.

You chose to learn handwriting from your father, and the teacher didn't realize it So what the hell with her, it's your life

Yesterday the saleswoman insistently tried to sell me two buns instead of one. But I only wanted one. Her insistence was very annoying.

Two are often cheaper than one, but if you buy two you have to eat them both.

Years ago I noticed on American TV adverts how much dancing there was. If the advert was selling kitchens, there was dancing. If they were selling beds, there was dancing. If they were selling sofa, more dancing. It was so incredibly cringey and I was so thankful such dancing adverts were not shown on British TV adverts.

And then.... I started noticing dancing on British TV adverts. What. The. Hell.
Very annoying. Very trivial.

Why are you still watching adverts - it is 2022!

If you don't get any buns I'd take two any day...

Once attended a aunts funeral in Sweden who was greatly loved, the sadness was softened by the slapstick comedy in most adverts!

20 yrs later I remember the adverts a guy + girl who couldn't start his outboard to watch the football, and another one where a bird flies into a painted hole in a birdbox!🤣🤣🤣

How expensive are these buns that need saleswomen to sell them ?

This type of lettuce. Ok for rabbits, but why do some people rave over a boring, tasteless item?

I wouldn't say that iceberg lettuces are annoying, but they are pretty boring and tasteless.

I much prefer Aldi's Watercress, Spinach and Rocket...

Runners With “Finisher” t-shirts. You say finisher, I say loser.

You don't know they didn't win.

A lot of my kit is race tee shirts. You get them as part of the price of the race so why not make use of them ?

What a horrible attitude. The vast majority of those entering the events where you get such shirts are not entering with any expectation or intention of troubling the leader board.

For most, it is a significant achievement just to finish (assuming we are talking at least a 10k run).

That doesn't make them a "loser", and I really can't understand why it would annoy you.

What annoys me is when you don't get a T shirt in the goody bag!🤣🤣🤣

My mate did a local race and was a bit slower, but asked for a M t shirt nope only XL should have run faster!🤣🤣🤣
