"I have three light switches in my living room, two of the switches are a double and switch on and off both living room lights, the one on its own is on the opposite side of the room and only switches on and off one living room light, I have banned everyone from using the single light switch because I can not abide the one switch being up and the other down on the double light switch, it makes me see red!" Oh my god I have a light like this too, and when they're not in the same direction it gives me anxiety. | |||

What a relief to read this! I thought that I was the only person like this and I have never admitted it before, I just switch the lights on and off until they are aligned again! | |||

"Dropping a fork on the floor as you're about to eat. It's an onslaught of inconvenience in that you can't eat until you get a new one. You have to get up to get a new one. It's an extra thing to wash up that doesn't justify the washing up liquid used.

"People who whistle songs" Fully justified. There's a time and place for whistling and that is when you are alone and out of anyone's earshot. B | |||

"People with a lack of spatial awareness. Groups of people or couples who take the whole of the pavement and expect you to jump over them." Maybe I am being pedantic, I don't know, but those things don't seem insignificant, both could have an adverse effect on you peaceful enjoyment of liberty. | |||

"Absolutely RILES me when ‘open here’ packaging does not work, e.g bacon grrrrrrrrrrrrr" Yes! The 'peel here' is there to help you but actually makes the job harder because now you've got to go and get some scissors.😡 In a similar vein, when the slices of meat are fanned so that the top slice is furthest away from the peel corner. If you only need a couple of slices you they have to peel the pack fully open. B | |||

"Those new Pepsi bottles where the lid is attached to the bottle Oh my god I could write a book on how incensed this change makes me You're probably too young to remember when ring pulls changed from the removable ones to the click clack ones that are ubiquitous now, people thought the same then, but in the long run, it's better for the planet to have less litter. B How does the lid being attached to the bottle result in less litter?" Typically the lid is abandoned and the bottle is put in the bin. Having the lid attached to the bottle means everything gets put in the bin B | |||

"Americans pronouncing vehicles with 3 syllables Indeed. shev-row-lay for example. The actual word.. vee hic… ull Drives me bonkers" I think that's just how American works. See also: al-um-inum. In English, it's obviously al-u-min-ium. | |||

"People who sneeze in public and just wave a hand in front of their face and don't use a tissue. Especially in buses when you know they're going to touch all the handrails on the way out. Oh and people who say or write "bored of". It's "bored with"!" I don’t uses buses so I would not know. | |||

"Toilet paper when the perforations don't match up on the layers so it rips unevenly grrrr." That's easily fixed. Unroll the layer in front one turn and tear it off. The perforations will now align. Also, the layer in front will now be the lower layer. | |||
