Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

The kids and the wife think the front door is the outside bin! Putting rubbish bags in the porch for dad to take our really annoys me!!

I had two disgusting public toilet experiences yesterday. When I walked in one with my mutt on his lead I was met with a peed on, full off USED toilet paper floor! I kept telling him "do not sit down"!! Yes, I know dog's don't understand words as such, but he's heard me bark (excuse the pun) that order to him so many times, he'll know from the tone of my voice not to sit down. Thankfully he didn't! The second experience was when approaching a supermarket customers toilets. The stench of you know what hit me!! Again as I entered the cubicle, the floor was full of pee and some skank had even done a number 2 and not bothered to flush the thing away! Why they don't have extractor fans in those bogs I just do not know!

Trying to pair plastic boxes with lids so many sizes and designs none of which fit!

I have the same problem. I reckon a concentration of boxes and lids creates a hole in space time causing lids and boxes to randomly turn up in other people's cupboards. I may have some of yours, in fact.

holiday ads on the radio that require no deposit to book... why is this voiced as "...zero pound deposit..." and not "...no deposit..."

I have shared your pain.
These days I keep the lids on their boxes instead of having a stack of trays and another of lids. Throw away recycle all the odd ones.

BBC promos where you "ask your smart speaker to play..."

Surely the smart speaker is an inanimate object so you instruct it, not ask it.

People who congregate at a zebra crossing for a chat, with no intention of crossing

Or blocking the exit of a lift/building/train, and then stare at you as you hesitate to leave.

And OMG, the people who block the bottom of escalators...
**** OFF!

Sainsbury's offering me extra Nectar points on an item they no longer stock

It's vicarious revenge on drivers who drive over it when people are clearly waiting.

I just had that at Exeter St David's! 30 young people completely preventing me getting off the train. "Please let me off" did not work. "PLEASE LET ME OFF" did not work. "MOVE - NOW!!!" finally did the trick, but they looked so hurt that the big man had shouted at them!
