Random and pointless things which still annoy you. 19:30 - Feb 25 with 30543 viewsMattinLondon

Just been to Sainsburys where a man grabbed a sandwich and a can of coke and devoured both before going to the tills and paying for both.

For some reason this annoys me despite it having absolutely no relevance to me at all.

Just wondered if anything else pointlessly annoys other posters?

People overtaking me on the motorway and continuing to sit in the fast lane despite the fact they’ve comfortably passed me and there’s no other traffic for them to overtake. Doesn’t affect me as they’re going faster but it infuriates me and instantly makes me think that the driver is a bellend

My hobbies include being quiet during trips, clapping with songs, and diabetes.

People who stand up the minute a plane stops and ask you to let them past, when in reality you ain't going anywhere for at least 10 minutes

Shouldn't annoy me, but genuinely does for some reason.

I went for a hair cut today and the hairdresser hadn't bothered to brush down the chair properly before I sat in it.

That bothered me.

Is that petty of me or just lazy from her?

I genuinely think the A12, followed by the A14 are the worst for this.

People eating as they go around a supermarket, definitely p1$$ me off. Also, people who eat food in the kitchen before it is served. Just wait 20 seconds till it is served for f++ks sake.

There is a small part of the Tower or London built out of red brick. I assume it was patched up after bombing in the war or some such.

That annoys me. I know it is ‘authentic’, but FFS, make some effort and rebuild the tower as it was originally intended. It’s looks scruffy. Might as well put a satellite dish and some pebble dashing on it.....

Drivers not indicating but particularly when turning left at junctions/roundabouts.

I love stopping to give way for nothing when a simple lifting of the finger to let me know they are turning left rather than crossing my path.

I have others but this really, really, really, really, really gets my goat.

Women getting in the car after paying for their fuel, and then 9 years go by before they drive away from the pump.

People who get up to a bar/food ordering counter then say “oh I don’t know what I fancy”. That’s what the queue was for. To decide. Move out of my way.

When MrsN doesn’t wash the dishes before she puts them in the dishwasher. Yes I know. But she’s still wrong.

People who are at the air machine at a petrol station and then don’t know what their tyre pressures should be. Find out before you get there.

In the same vein, I get annoyed by the block paved streets in Ipswich that been dug up and then patched up with shlt looking swathes of tarmac.

Actually, that's not a bad list.

All of those things bug me as well.

If you could also have a word I'd be grateful.

Numpties who get in their car, then start the engine to sit idling for 10 minutes while they have a good old peck at their tin cuttlefish

Women in supermarkets who always seem surprised that they have to pay. And THEN start to rummage about among bags and purses to see which card they are then going to use.

Stupid people who say women can multitask - not at a till...and it's what men call doing things.

Asking for the bill in a restaurant and then having to wait ages for it.
I asked because I want to leave, you are now stopping me from doing that which is reducing my impression of the service which may have been brilliant up to that point.

I'd agree with that. And why not bring over the card machine at the same time? Otherwise you have to look about for someone twice just to fecking pay. Last time I was eating out I swear the bill/payment thing took longer than the meal.

Pedestrian crossings where the red/green men lights aren’t on the opposite side of the road in the direction you’re heading, and above head height so everyone can see them. Oh no, some wassock decided they’d be better at hip level on the post that’s beside you and may well have several people blocking the view if it’s busy, leaving you no idea when they change.

That annoys me. Does it affect me? I’d like to think I can outsmart them, so it probably shouldn’t, but I’ll let you know if I get run over.

Seriously, most stupid design ever.
