Tiny Things That Annoy You • Page 115

when you feel like there is someone constantly behind you in the grocery store and you can't even take a second to look at the items on the shelves

 

(most) American remakes of foreign films

 

waiting in a long line

 

When you stop to let someone/a small group of people walk across the parking lot and they walk so damn slow AND stop in the middle of it!

 

my loud dickhead upstairs neighbours

 

When people come to a complete stop to make a right turn.

 

When people don’t turn right on red - especially when they have a green arrow to do so!

(I get some countries and maybe even states(?) it’s illegal to turn right on red but when you have an arrow saying it’s ok, come on now)

 

I used to play this game with myself where when friends got in the car, I wouldn’t/couldn’t stop at a red light no matter what. So I’d go far right and take a right and take all sorts of crazy turns just to get back on track.

the game was to see if any passengers noticed.

 

An energy drink can feel in front of my space again. Can’t say for sure it came from the guy upstairs, but it’s location is telling me it is. Unless it’s from these other people and there was wind and blew it. I only make that assumption because when there was mega wind one time there was trash EVERYWHERE and stuff with an address that came from other people next to me

 

When someone posts a video or TikTok of someone cooking/baking something that looks amazing and there's no recipe attached

 

I’m trying to take a nap because I have a headache and I can hear the people behind me (almost certain it’s not the annoying loud music people). I can’t explain it but it’s worse. It’s like they’re talking on a microphone or talking through an air vent and you can hear it through walls loud and I can’t explain why it sounds louder than the previous people. I couldn’t hear the previous people from my bed room but I can hear them now.

 

Waiting in line at the deli

 

Who sells a folding table that doesn't fold?! Honestly, what the fuck

 

My new tiny annoyance: it finally shipped, was supposed to arrive yesterday, but it got all the way to my city in NH only to be accidentally "misshipped" to NY a few hours later. Called USPS and said I should hopefully get it Thursday

 

Con artists, liars, rooms-to-go…

 

When people make posts about taking a break from social media

 

I’m afraid for California and this governor recall election. I don’t like either choices, but the republican choice wants to lift the mask mandate which will bring us further in the shitter. The radical right only cares about themselves and whines how masks “violates their rights” yet is pro-birth wanting to for women to have kids.
Anyone else notice how quickly the masks came back on after they lifted it too soon last time? Then here came delta variant.

 

Apparently there’s some issue with iPhones and iPads needing to be updated ASAP due to a security issue but Apple doesn't send out an alert knowing you of this as a pop up on your phone? I hear about it by chance by friends only. Not sure how significant the security issue could be but I assume a lot of people have no idea there is an issue because it was communicated via news programs (from what I was told) but not an alert on every device which seems odd

 

I never update my iPhone because I did once and it crashed it and I had to restore it back to new. Lost everything.

 

At work, when my clients leave me voicemails and all they say is "please call me back" without stating what their question or concern is. Pretty much drives the chance that I'll call them back close to 0, and just wait for them to email me instead

 

LOL all of the older employees here do that. They also love to come to my office to just rattle off question after question, or tell me a bunch of things they need done. Then I have to try to remember everything they said and guess what? Write it down immediately when they leave.

It's just like, send a fuckin' email. It's easier for EVERYONE Made work so much easier over quarantine because they HAD to send emails.

 

Yep exactly; then again, we have a new guy on our team who, because I've been on the team a long time, likes to chat me for assistance on his work. But he won't chat me what his issue or question is; he'll just chat me saying "hey", and then not follow up other word or sentence stating his issue/question. Then after a while of intentionally not responding, I'll finally respond saying "what's up" and he'll then ask if it'd be ok to hop on a videocall, instead of just telling me his issue. Ughghghghgg

 

When something is listed as "in stock" online and then isn't "in stock" when you show up.

 

We went grocery shopping last night and a new package of meat left the freezer door just barely cracked open to the point that it wasn't even visible. Now half of my food is slightly thawed while the rest is still frozen solid. Ugh.

I don't get how my ice cubes are still frozen but my pizza and chicken nuggets are thawed

 

similar perplexing things with my freezer - I bought some liquor push pop things and laid them out in my freezer and after 3-4 DAYS they still were mostly liquid. Cold, but not even slush, meanwhile I had ice cube before, after and even made some while waiting for these damn things to freeze. Not sure if they were made wrong and the contents were 100% vodka since that doesn’t freeze or what lol but like, how can I make ice yet the item right next to it just gets cold but doesn’t freeze?
