Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

Twice today and once the other day I've had eejits get right in my face when talking to me! I've just had one bloke who stank of spirits talking crap about two feet from my face. Not only that but he was swaying from side to side and at one point I had to swerve to avoid him falling into me! I have an imaginary hula hoop around me. If they cross it I feel intimidated and very uncomfortable. Even if I take a step back most will follow me, taking another step forward. Why do they have to talk to you about two feet away, sometimes even closer?! I talk to folk about 6 feet away at least, so why can't they do the same! I just wish they'd keep their distance! 🧐

@Accy cyclist - you need to get into beekeeping, and walk around like this; that'll sort out your space invaders

Edit: Well sort off. Different space invaders....

An obvious question, but... why are you bothering to talk to eejits so drunk on spirits that they can't even stand up properly...?

I couldn't get away from him! I'd just got out of my car when he appeared in front of me. I've found in the past that it's safer to let drunks have their say, rather than walking away from them, when they then tend to follow you, sometimes getting quite aggressive. The one this evening isn't aggressive as far as I know, but you never know, as they say! Another thing I don't like is/are huggers! Huggers as in mostly women who again when drunk, want to hug you! I find it really uncomfortable and find that I don't know where to put my hands, so I tend to just let my arms dangle by my side which must look quite odd to anyone seeing this awkward interaction!

Good morning,

The "nicer" pot noodle?
Some people will believe anything!

You sound to me like someone unaware of Donet Kebab Flavour

Yes, it is or maybe was, a real product that you could actually buy. When accomapanied by 6 (six) sugars in the mug of tea, I was sure that I hadn't already added the sugar, then it's all the engery needed for the commute in.

They are a bit fat high in the fat/carbs balance, around 54/72 kcal per 100g but add in the tea and the balance is restored, apparently there are some proteins in it as well but I won't hold that against it.

[EDIT:]
I fogot to mention that the correct way to "cook" a Pot Noddle is not to pour boiling water into the tub, but to put cold water in and then microwave it for around 3 minutes on full power (800W).

....... Remember that this piece of advice comes to you from someone who recommends microwaving a Cadburys Creme Egg for around 5-10 seconds, you need to experiment on the timing because exploded Creme Egg is very difficult to clean up after.
[END EDIT]

Bye
