By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

So, I’m a professional driver. Well, allegedly I’m a professional And at work we change bulbs on our trucks ourselves, as you’d probably expect. However there are one or two drivers who constantly put the headlight bulbs in the wrong way. They’re designed so they’ll only fit in the socket one exact way, and yet I keep finding them jammed in at strange angles, with the headlight pointing at the sky. I know it’s a trivial thing, and yet it drives me batshit insane! It’s such a simple thing! They have to take the old bulb out when it’s blown, surely the new one goes in the same way? Nope!

So that’s mine, what is that minor thing that drives you insane? So inconsequential, and yet so maddening?

I'm in a car club for old Triumphs, and the particular model I'm into has two different shaped wiper arms, one straight so that it misses the corner of the screen, and one angled so that it lies flat against the bottom of the screen

The number of cars I see with them the wrong way round drives me equally batshit crazy! If only because the swept area is so much worse that way round...

I absolutely love it when I iron clothes and hang them up in my daughters wardrobe only to find them unworn and scrunched up in a ball on the floor.

Leaving lights on and TVs on upstairs and leaving wrappers and glasses everywhere upstairs. That’s my annoyance.

The school run. The moment I don’t have to do it anymore I’ll be throwing a bloody big party for one.

Sick to death of ignorant fuckwits who never say thank you or excuse me when you stop to let them pass etc and who block the chuffing entrance/exit to the school with their gossipy ways. Just did off already!

And they don’t bloody move even when you say EXCUSE ME! in a passive aggressive way!

Deffo this! Plus not putting the new toilet roll on the holder! Leaving the recycling on work tops instead of the bag that's under work top for recycling! X

Insee this as a minor thing, but given how often I run into it I am starting to question it:

Coming to me with a problem but no attempt at coming up with a solution.

Your solution might suck, but at least show you put some effort into it.

People who stand on the left hand side of the escalators when the signs and voice over announcer say stand to the right

Drivers who don’t indicate they’re turning right at a junction until the traffic light turns green.

People at work who never buy milk but will happily drink everybody else’s.

Bad, inconsiderate parking.

I could go on....

Someone leaving taps dripping drives me up the wall.

Also someone who leaves crumbs and on the table and just wipes them onto the floor. Well what the fuck did you achieve there?!

Something else that annoys me is the amount of facemasks thrown onto the street.

Why can't people dispose of them properly ffs

My list is more of a book of grumpy old man things which is before my time I’m sure being born in the 80’s.

But near the top of the list is the people who leave a thimble full of milk and put it back in the fridge. Using the last one of something and leaving an empty box. Parking over lines so can’t use the other space. People who walk all other the place and slowly trapping u behind in narrow places like the underground. Drivers that don’t indicate. Borris Johnson.....

I’ll stop there before I start ranting

Pitting the toilet roll on the holder the wrong way round. Makes very little difference but drives me nuts!

Me too.

When I'm in someone's house I always put it the correct way round

You know when it’s raining and you don’t have an umbrella (I never have one as I hate the bloody things) and as you’re walking, you see a building has an overhang, just gives you a bit of shelter from the rain as you’re walking to work. Then some bloody idiot with an umbrella actually walks under it as well, rather than stay in the rain and allow us without umbrellas to get a bit of shelter for a few minutes. In some cases meaning we have to walk in the rain. That really fucks me off.

And Men ...yes you lot who do use an umbrella, why the fuck do you need the biggest fucking umbrella that they sell in the shop. It’s a golfing umbrella for a reason dickhead you use it on the fucking golf course, not walking down a busy high street

Rant over, that felt good, time for a cup of tea ...tea first then milk
