Things That Trivially Annoy You.

CrowdedHouse

I hit a little bird that flew into my path when I was out driving and it made me almost irrationally sad.

Arrived back to my car yesterday evening, door was unlocked, seat fully pushed back, gear stick left in 3rd gear position (i never leave it in gear).
Nothing missing from the car, nothing out of place in the car. The only things of any worth were a pair of sunglasses and a new pair of runners but they were not touched.So confused about it.

"Dude, where's my car?"


Really, though, did you check the mileage? And are you sure it's your car?

****ing Paypal, sold something on ebay for a few hundred quid. Chap pays by paypal and because this kind of item is 'unusual' for my account they have held the money until the buyer confirms he has received the item and I won't get the money until 1-2 days after he receives.

So I've had to send a valuable item without actually receiving any money. Obviously paypal have millions upon millions tied up like this and are just after creaming the interest the same way banks hold onto money from cheques for 5 days

I know it's extremely annoying. I've to sell a few expensive things on ebay myself soon and I'm already dreading having to wait ages to get paid. I do know though that the process protects buyers against dodgy sellers who might take the money and run, without sending the item. In a way it also protects you the seller because if the buyer makes a claim and wins, PayPal will take the money back off you, and if you've already spent the money, you'd then find yourself in debt to PayPal. (Not ignoring the cynical / realistic viewpoint that PayPal may also be directly benefiting financially from the process.)

It's to stop you doing a runner with the money. Or sending a brick in a box.

My father is so annoying the man working at the counter helped him to pack his shopping and to the car at Aldi once!

Being interrupted when I am working on something. It's completely counter-productive to constantly have to mentally jump into different frames. Where X, Y and Z need to be done, I prefer to just do X, finish it, do Y, finish it etc. What's this business of people constantly asking about Z, then something else about X and so on. Just go away!

People who keep looping things back into stuff you have already told them. For example, I say "I am thinking of taking the bf here for his birthday for the weekend" and they reply, "why are you going on holidays, did you not tell me you were saving for a house" - f*ck off Martha, that's the last time I tell you anything.

Went to the continental market at lunchtime (yay), got a lovely burger (yay) and some Danish pancakes with Nutella (yay). Obviously I got Nutella all over my face with all the yumminess so I asked my husband to check my face for chocolate once I had wiped my mouth.

Now, almost 3 hours later I check myself in the bathroom mirror and find a large chocolate stain on my chin. This is what husbands are for ffs! He had one job! Not let me look like a tit in public. :mad:

Having to miss the first tag rugby game of the season this evening in order to play in the final hockey match of the season. I hate being torn between two loves :P

Hope your ok hun:D

My neighbour's strange friend. There is a bit of a want in her, as my mother would say and daddy days "she's harmless". Still though. She said to me today "oh you've put on a bit of weight". Course I pretended not to hear. Then Daddy pipes up, "Persepoly blaablaa is talking to you".
Like I was a kid again!
Its the second time she said that to me as well. The first was about five years ago! Feck. I'm not fat! Just have curves that I didn't have when she first met me. Hmph!

Having Cork people bang on about the “real capital” when they hear you’re from Dublin.

You’d also swear they have share in Murphy’s, which I believe is now owned by Heineken, the way they go on about it.

Trying to fatten up a sick relative and inadvertently fattening myself up in the process. This wasn’t part of my plan.
Anyway pass me the cake

Last year one of my Dad's friends (who I always thought was a boll!x) was calling to the house. Haven't seen him in around 15 years. Met him at the door, and in a completely matter of fact way, not even a bad attempt at a joke, commented that 'he didn't recognise me now that I was half bald and had that belly.'

Bear Grylls annoys me. I get that he is showing how to survive in the wilderness etc but does he really need to bite into a fish he has just speared in a lake or eat maggots. You're not stranded Bear!

His kids are named Huckleberry, Marmaduke and Jesse, no joke.
Just imagine then be being able to enjoy a normal family holiday because they'll do some junior survive in Indochina bootcamp.

TA: channel 4 needs to get a grip on when to cut an as break into a movie properly. I hate when a scene ends in the middle for a break and after it it's just the next shot.

You can see the smug smile on his face when he came up with that...”ohhhhh we are great, unique and esoteric parents and downright interesting free spirited people”.. meanwhile poor Muckleberry and Harmaduke for about 16 years of their lives get beaten into liquid on a regular basis courtesy of this smugness overdose.

This sounds ungrateful but I hate when somebody buys you an expensive gift that you don't want.
