Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

When the driver in front of me in the Q is looking at their phone, head bent down, I can almost hear the sound of tapping keys…

then the Q starts creeping forward and I’m stuck with my arse is still over the stop line

Idiot drivers with no lights on at dusk - or driving thinking their parking lights are enough.

Idiot drivers with their lights on the automatic setting so their tail lights don't come on in poor visibility unless its actually dark.

Reminds me of the runners I bought ages ago to go running in. I should just call them walkers.

Lately my tablet browser is flagging certain words suggesting that I’ve misspelled them when it’s apparent that I haven’t. I used the word ‘ unrelatable ‘ in a post as I am here and it’s underlined in red. I try and work out how I’ve misspelled it, even by going to the online Oxford English but letter by letter, it’s correct but flagged on this browser as otherwise…. 🧐. Quite trivial, but annoying.

I wonder how many other people looked it up?

OED states :

Fewer than 0.01occurrences per million words in modern written English

So its used on average one word in one hundred million words written.

Maybe the dictionary just didn't bother with it?

When you're doing something trivial in work and it's taking ******* ages because it's hidden and obsecured by layers of crap.

Smart arse politicians getting their mugs up on early election posters Public Meeting notices with nonsensical topics. Two in my area are supposedly about "Women in Sport" and "Careers in the EU", topics which are right at the top of issues that we need public meetings about. Eh, right. And of course, their mugshots take up so much of the poster you can't see feck all about where these important meetings are supposedly taking place.

That I’m looking at plasma cutters , even though I don’t need one , it might do a trick or two .

But the 'blood' and the Crips and the KKK' wouldn't have quite the same ring to it.

My TA is Apple airtags. I don't own an iPhone, my kids all do though and it turns out the Airtags will only work if they're within ten meters of an iPhone. Which is okay if you live in a city, but pretty useless if you've lost one somewhere in the countryside.

That I’ve bought alot of things on Amazon . But ever since I fell over the coffee table I’ve mislaid them all .

Those fcukers love that sort of thing. Saying "Go to gate" on the app before the incoming flight has even landed.
