Have you got one thing that really annoys you?
For me it has to be lateness, not just other people being late (grrrr), but I hate being late myself.
So over to you...

Bad manners, it doesn't cost anything to be polite

Not many things annoy me honestly but a few I can think of:
- People saying something/they will be 15 minutes, then when 15 minutes goes past they say it'll be 10 more minutes. Just say 25 minutes to start with then I can plan around it! Same goes when the time is measured in longer amounts of times like days/weeks for example a waiting list being 3 months then after 3 months they tell you it'll be another 3 months. Just say 6 months from the start!
- Superfluous and unnecessary paperwork/admin/bureaucracy.
- People who are grumpy/angry/aggressive for little or no reason.
- Bad manners, I agree with above.
I sound like a right old grumpy fart now -
Lying really annoys me unless it is a person with a very good memory they get found out
Bullying of any form
More lighthearrd a bad meal in a restaurant -
Z list celebs, packaging on medicines, (big box with only 4 tablets type thing i mean )

So many things in particular lateness is one of my pet hates. Mind you I'm always early for everything. If a meeting starts at 2pm I'm ready at least 5 minutes before. Middle lane hoggers is another one. This thread could run and run ......

Where do i begin
Untidiness
Disrespect
Being spoken to like a child
Being patted by strangers when out and about
No doubt I will come back with more...Disability Gamechanger - 2019 -

Bad service in a shop or restaurant.
people who habitually don’t smile.
internet service providers charges
people who litter.
employers who cheat their employees.
companies who don’t pay their sub-contractors in a timely fashion.
however I have a secret weapon for all of these ...acceptance/ tolerance. The problem is if you dwell on these things they get to annoy/upset you repeatedly instead of the one or odd occasions.“This is my simple religion. No need for temples. No need for complicated philosophy. Your own mind, your own heart is the temple. Your philosophy is simple kindness.”

Bullying
People not listening
Petrol prices
Abusive people
Poverty
Homeless
Cutting grass
There are so many things good thread though

People in general really.
But if I had to pick specifics, it would be inconsiderate actions, single mindedness, patronising, condescending...people unable to see something from any viewpoint other than their own.
-
Liars, particularly those that gaslight you to make you feel that you are the one in the wrong. Have recently been a victim of this and it took me 2.5 years to get out of the situation
-
People who drop litter. Especially people who chuck stuff out of car windows ..........
-
People who don’t pick up after their dog.
People who leave their shopping trolleys in the middle of a car park.
People who litter.
People who pull out in front of you without looking.
People with no common sense or who are generally too lazy to use it.
I think I just have a general dislike of people!! -
Another one for me...doesn't happen here luckily but happens a lot on other forums I use.
People who are rude or aggressive towards others on the internet.
Now I don't like rudeness anywhere and am not condoning being rude in real life, but it does take a special kind of coward to do it from the safety of their computer screen. If you are going to be rude, at least face the person and do it, don't be a chicken! -
People that always have to have the last word, even thought they're wrong...and they probably know it
-
People who are patronising or condescending can rile me right up! I had a few teachers at school, or people I've known in general, who were patronising and it makes my blood boil.
It also annoys me when people deliberately embarrass other people, especially if there's a power imbalance. -
Lists
specifically shopping lists
more specifically shopping lists given to me because I happen to be going out somewhere which might be a mile away from a supermarket which I could pop in to whilst I’m out trying to enjoy myself doing something else.
luckily it doesn’t happen very often these days ?“This is my simple religion. No need for temples. No need for complicated philosophy. Your own mind, your own heart is the temple. Your philosophy is simple kindness.”

Poor grammar...eg when people write and say " I should of gone" when it ought to be " I should have gone".
Also when people use an apostrophe s for plurals.
