What bothers you, but shouldn't really?
Jump to: Newest in thread
We all have small things that people do or say that bothers you, but you keep quiet about it, because it's only polite.
What are they?
For me it's 3 things;
1 - People that say "At the end of the day", a lot. I'm almost always tempted to finish their comment with "You go to bed".
2 - People that reply to messages or texts with short answers or statements. Not even enough to answer the whole original message.
3 - People with bad memories. I know it could be a condition, but when people ask the same questions over and over again, I just find it irritating. Working in IT, I get the same questions repeatedly, but when it's a question from someone you know you've already answered....

The Scottish weather - I know I should be used to it by now but it would be great to have a proper summer and not have to pack a rain coat as well as sun cream at the same time.
Clothes sizes - you go in one shop and your a size 10, another and your a size bigger and another store and your a size bigger than the last store. How hard is it for manufacturers to keep to the same measurements?
Lastly morning happy people!!! Can't stand them until I've had at least 2 coffees. |

I agree with your point 2. You can ask maybe 2 or 3 questions and get an answer to 1. They've obviously not read the full text or can't be bothered. Another one is saying I'll meet you at lunch time instead of just giving you a time. We don't all have lunch at the same time  |

Similar to this. People that say "literally" before describing an action.
eg. "I was literally just about to say that"
Theres just no need and it doesn't make much sense. Heard it alot when I worked down in England, doesn't seem to be as common up here thankfully.
Also people with no manners.. there's just no need |

Folk who use the following words:
Fanny
Minge
Spunk
Shag
Pump
Moist
Lady flaps
You get the idea. Really shit sex talk. A complete turn off and makes me cringe. You lose a lot of points if you use these words and it's not from taking the piss.
I also don't like being called Babe. |

People who insist on making their life full of self created drama and then end up behaving like attention seeking toddlers. Whaa whaa fucking whaa.
I recently cut myself free of a friend who keeps having affairs with married men and wondering how she ends up being treated like shit.
People who are purposefully cruel to others to make themselves better than they are. No ones flame burns brighter cos u snuffed other flames out.
Animal cruelty of any type. |

"Slow durpy brain dead people dithering about in town getting in the way"
Slow walkers used to really annoy me, when I used to work in the centre of town.
Nowadays working somewhere a bit more remote, I only have to face it at the weekend, and only if I'm still there during the busy times.

Agreed. Boil in the bag philosophy.
Especially those ones that women put up constantly about being hurt/trusting no-one/how she's so independent, blah, blah, blah... |

First time I saw that advert I said to my daughter that if I'd seen my date do that, I'd have run a mile lol. |

Folk who judge without knowing the facts . Presume the homeless begging in the street is there of their own fault . The single mother just wants a free council house and benefits . Admittedly it may be true for some but not all . |

Being out and about esp in supermarkets. ...I will appologise if I get in someone's way or if I have to walk in front of them.
What annoys me when there is a lack of acknowledgment you even exist.
I have apologised and they don't even look at you but just carry on and ignore my good manners by showing how poorly mannered that are !!! |

Ignorant people who don’t have manners - and don’t say please and thank you.
People who write shit statuses on social media that are blatantly attention seeking, then reply with “I’ll pm you hun” when people ask if they are ok. Oh and the whole “hugs hun” stuff. Winds me right up.
People who drive like dickheads. I get fairly severe road rage.
People that nick the caramel sweeties out of boxes of chocolates that are mine. Absolute bastards.
God I’m in a right grumpy mood  |

"Another one is people at work who drain every drop of water from the kettle that I boiled for myself then fuck off leaving it as dry as a badger's arse."
Or then fill it right up, when there’s only 2 more people need a cuppa, and it takes about 5 fucking years to boil. |

Eeek way too many to mention.
One that gets my goat everytime though is guys sending cock pics or messaging when they have cock pics on profile. (I know I know! It’s a swinging site!)
I should be immune to it now |

Politicians saying we have spent xxxxx number of pounds on whatever.
It is not coming out of their pocket directly and they seek praise for investing TAX PAYERS MONEY !!!!
Politicians should be made to say we have invested tax payers money in whatever and not try to claim credit for spending the ciitizens of the UK s money as it were their own !!!! |

Here's another.
Rule number one when running a railway - make buying tickets easy.
Scotrail missed that memo.
Ticket desk closed as they're "helping customers in another part of the station".
Shite.
Ticket machine broken.
Again.
No ticket seller on the train.
Again.
One poor guy with a tiny machine at the exit barrier selling tickets to the whole train. They even have a zig zag queue thing for him.
Sake.
And everywhere you look, signs reminding you it's an offence to travel without a ticket.
The chance would be a fine thing. |

Ways in which to putchase/collect train tickets;
Online
Via an app
In advance
Ticketing machine at station
Pre-paid collection machine at station
In person at station
Aside from coming round your house on the off chance, they seem to have covered all the basis any reasonable person could expect.

Holding a door open for someone and they just walk straight through without so much as a thank you, especially at work! It doesn't cost anything to have manners x |

God I hate it when a promising profile messages you and it’s obviously the husband writing on his own with that “yous” shit in it. I don’t know if it’s colloquial, ironic or if they are just fucking morons. |
