Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

Thought it was gonna be a nice enough day today to reinstall the rotary line and hang out some washing. TA is all close-pegs are crap and break apart way to easily.

Another TA is that there wasn't any drying out after all, and the clothes were just as wet later on when I took them back in.

I started enjoying watching survivalists on YouTube a couple of years ago..skilled people out in all weather & wilderness with maybe a hot tent and basic supplies, now when you search, the number of absolute bandwagoners doing downmarket camping / glamping and identifying as survivalists 🤪. Latest..A lad rocking up to car park in a Range Rover & walking through a forest for 20 minutes to a furnished cabin & cooking / sleeping, major risk to life because there is snow & DIY to do. shop is 3 kms away, survival expert.👏🏼👀.

next time I have to go out in the snow I’ll remember, I’m a survivalist. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Cut his electricity, slash his tyres, and maybe break his leg. Then we'll see how he gets on. 😂

My TA for today is an e-mail I just got from the managing director-type, asking for a progress report on a 'project' I'm working on. Progress isn't great, mainly due to lack of support from a particular engineer, but I'm just starting to get some stuff done…so why couldn't he have just waited a few more days before asking? Eh? 😕

Getting off the bus yesterday, thought I heard something fall, had my wireless earbuds in so wasn't sure, looked around quickly as we were at the stop, couldn't see anything so off I get. Arrive home to realise that my earbuds case is gone 🤦‍♂️

Why do you have to wake up to pee when you are in a deep sleep? It can take ages to go back to sleep after. The body should be able to simply put that on hold until the morning or else get rid of all the pee before you go to bed.

Dating profiles of dog lovers with their dog slurping at their face. Ewww.

My better half switches the bathroom light on if he gets up to use the loo during the night. What kind of sociopath does that??? I do be like that Yoda meme, I try not to even open my eyes if I can help it.

It's the opposite that kills me. Trying to retract the cord and you start the motor again! But I've always hated the sound of the hoover…

Ovens Rocky Mountain Bushcraft is very good. He is definitely in the no-frills camp.

Another online gripe. There is a journalist/commentator who appears in lots of online interviews. The problem is her camera is total garbage, it is blocky and always freezing and glitching, her mic is terrible too. You think she would invest in a decent setup when she is online so often.

When you have a couple of guests on a current events talk show, and they wont let their opponent finish their point, just have to butt in and talk over them. And the host does nothing. If I were the host, they'd be left in no uncertain terms what would happen if they tried that sh1t.

Messy bastards of smokers. Bins provided and they drop their fag a matter of inches from it. Why the actual fk do they do that? Are their houses and cars a mess of disgusting fag butts too?

Littering in general.

Was driving behind a construction white van with a D reg heading into Muff village tonight, and they just fecked a large McDonalds bag out the window.

Sure why scrunch it up and throw it in the bin when you get home when you can just toss it out the window?

I could name the construction firm on the side, but mods might not approve

I live "eating distance" by car from a McDonalds. You can tell how long it takes to eat the crap as many of the wrappers end up at the top of our lane.
