Non-football things that annoy you more than they should 13:07 - Jan 19 with 3258 viewsIllinoisblue

1. Amazon asking for reviews of the electronic gift card you just purchased. I know these things are auto generated but there’s literally nothing to review. It’s like google asking you to review an email you sent.

2. Jimmy Carr’s stand-up. Almost as bad as Ricky Gervais.

3. Twitter. If it’s not a tsunami of irrelevant ads, it’s now split into “for you” (I assume suggestions of what you might want to see) and “following” which is people you actively follow. Except there seems to be little difference between the feeds and people you follow end up in the “for you” feed. Elon seems to find new ways to break it a little more every week.

I could present my many frothing discontents in the form of a thought cloud, but postmodern list equivalents are on my list.

People who moan about Twitter when the underlying problem is that they've not learned how to use it in a way that'd they'd find beneficial (even now, despite Dusk).

Being asked to review the same thing by Trustpilot every month you have it on repeat order, despite the fact you've already reviewed it two or three times.

Couriers who instead of putting packages in or on raised delivery box as instructed, dump them on doorstep resulting either in spinal re-injury bending to lift them, or being unable to get out of the front door at all.

Hancock's half-hour & what feels like 40 trails a day for it on R4Xtra

Repeats labelled as "Classic Comedy" when they're actually just lame, dated, unfunny cr@p.

'Best before' dates that are in totally different places on every packaged item of shopping, resulting in hours wasted hunting for near-invisible dates that are often printed in colours like pale yellow on white plastic - or even white on white in ever-so-slightly raised characters ffs!

Your list is getting quite specific. It's a slippery slope.

That is a good point about best before dates; they and clear info if packaging can be recycled should be a in a clear and prominent, and consistent place.

Things that suddenly stop working on your phone even though its only about 5 years old and you've looked after it well because they are "incompatible" trying to force you to buy a new one.

People who leave reviews for things along the lines of ‘haven’t received the item yet but I hope it’s good’ 5 stars. What the hell is the point?

Millennial/Gen Z ‘content writers’ who use headlines such as ‘We need to talk about X’ or ‘*insert something crap* and I’m totally here for it’. Just f##k off you utter pricks.

Truly impaired.

Ditto apps like iPlayer "no longer supported" on TVs only 4 years old - inbuilt obsolescence - grrr 🤬

Being placed on hold and having to endure "lift music", whilst being told you are in a queue for the next available operator, as if they have dozens of them Even though, you know, they have just the one operator.

Copious amounts of unnecessary packaging on just about anything these days. But especially food items.

People who don't clean up after their dogs.. (Should be shot in the face).

Although that is annoying it can be solved with a now tv box or fire stick.

Of course there's no one solution which provides every channel which is equally irritating.
