Shrieky kids, and the adults who encourage them.
Was in my local coffee shop earlier, relaxing with a cuppa, and the paper. Young kid, about three or four, there with her granny. The kid was clambering on the table, and shrieking about the colouring she was doing. All great fun, I'm sure, and I don't expect a coffee shop to be silent, or anything near it. But the kid's voice was going straight through my head, and the shrieking didn't stop, not even for a minute.

I've just packed earplugs into my bag for future trips to that coffee shop

I get the impression Lynn that your level of trivial annoyance is directly linked to the time you spend in coffee shops!

The fake frown that reporters put on when they are speaking in front of the camera and the way they insert pauses between words in all the wrong places!

Take out places that never get my order right. All I asked was to omit the lettuce. They don't.

Dizzy spells, I keep getting dizzy spells even though I'm taking antibiotics for my UTI. Mr Pumpkinseeds has taken over cooking dinner now, I don't like dizzy spells, I'm a control freak.

Please don't change your children on the same surface people eat off.

Theres an ebola ad on the radio with the voiceover done by a doctor from Doctors without borders.
His voice is so flat and devoid of emotion I can only assume he got elocution lessons from Ronan O'Gara.

Too late. I already picked out the offending ingredient.

Lots of trivial annoyances

- some random idiot added me on Facebook. Obviously I'm my usual charming self, "who are you? Do I know you?" He suggested I get to know him by sitting on his face. Wtf? What civilised person turns around and says that to someone? And apparently I'm no fun because clearly there's something wrong with me not being charmed.

- helping my cousin bake. We buy all the ingredients, I say do you want to do it in mine, cause I like baking and have pretty much all the equipment needed. No, she said, "lets do it in mine". Right so, off we go.

"Have you got a baking tray?" No.
"Have you got a hand mixer?" No what's that, will a blender do?
"Have you got a mixing bowl?"... I've got a saucepan?

Oh the living light of Jesus give me strength.

People incapable of writing an entire sentence. If its too much bother don't write it at all. The amount of people that have wrote "HB L" or "HB Lady" on my wall this morning is ridiculous. More people write HB than Happy Birthday. The outrageous effort of typing out a few extra letters

CrowdedHouse · 27-09-2014 09:41AM

HB Happy Birthday Lexie

LynnGrace · 27-09-2014 10:45AM

People who can't make the smallest decision for themselves without asking about it online.
Another forum I am on, not Boards...one poster in particular, 'should I get my hair cut' etc. Make up your own mind.

First time I've ever seen it! God help the first person who posts that on my wall, I think it will be an insta-delete.

Having two bottled Radlers (2% vol) and a bottle of beer - And waking up today with a slightly sore head. Seriously?

Parallel parking. I'm very good at it, so it's not an issue but trying to reverse into a car space when there's nothing but simpletons walking out behind a moving car wtf? It's an empty car space, there's a car moving, and what sort of blind bastard thinks its ok to place themselves between two cars?? I wouldn't like to be the meat in that sandwich.

Another mother told me that it was inappropriate for me to breastfeed my then 6-week-old baby at the table in a restaurant. Ten minutes later, she had her son up on the table changing his nappy!

What sort of restaurant was this ? Did staff not say anything to her??

It was actually at a wedding. We (the other guests at the table) were horrified! But none of us knew each other that well and I suppose we were too shocked to say anything! I couldn't believe it. Of course, later I was raging that I hadn't said anything...but I was a new mammy, in a foreign country and felt out-of-place enough as it was.

I am racking my brain trying to think of a country where this would deemed acceptable .....

Apparently it wasn't acceptable to anyone except the 2 parents (I suppose the baby didn't care) but no one spoke up. I didn't want to be the first! Now, I'd have no problem telling them what I thought.

It's annoying going out with someone, not even getting to the first pub with them before losing them, coming home without them, waking up the next day when they're still not home, and knowing they probably found a rave or something and had way more fun than you, as you stumbled from pub to pub hiccuping your brains out

Pumpkinseeds · 28-09-2014 01:47PM

Parents, well OK, some parents. Apparently there's a problem with teenagers pissing all over the local playground. Now to me that's an easily solvable problem. To the local parents though the solution is to build them a fcuking cinema or some more basketball courts. Yeah, the Iphones, laptops, Xboxes/Playstations, TV's etc that they have at home aren't enough. FFS, just discipline your fcuking kids and stop rewarding them for bad behaviour. Honestly, some parents need a good kick in the arse. They are never getting a cinema in this shi*hole town.:mad:

Not being able to say to some people "stop treating you're child like that, you bad bad mother/father"
