I was eating some corn today and thought about how much I hate the hairs that accompany fresh corn on the cob. I also hate the stringy bits on clementines.

Anyway, what are some silly things that annoy you?

Little bits of random stuff that get into my shoes, having an oddly difficult time opening plastic containers like chip bags and sauce packets, banana strings and many many more.

And also my glasses getting smudgy EVERY TEN MINUTES AFTER CLEANING.

People that still haven't figured out how to use a self-service checkout properly and then pack their bag after they've paid instead of just packing it as they scan. Also people that appear to be surprised that they need to pay and spend about 5 days faffing about with their fucking wallet or phone.

Then there's the pricks who block an entire aisle nattering away about how little Tarquin's such a good little boy and gosh how he's grown. Fuck me I hate shopping.

@BitChilly

I hate the stringy bits on bananas too and I also hate some plastic containers. It's just the worst when you rip it and it tears down the middle making the bag worthless. I've resorted to just using scissors to open most packages.

@Scud I've been lucky not to see a person not packing their bags as they go along at the self checkouts.

I also hate when a group of people all walk side by side taking up the whole walkway.

People not clearing the timer on the one-touch microwave after they've cooked their food in it so that I have to clear it before using it, making it a minimum two-touch operation.

Dust! Why is it everywhere? Why is it always back the very next day after cleaning? Feels like I'm in a perpetual state of dusting.

Those new plastic caps of bottle, ffs they are so annoying. Paper straws in some fast food restaurant like McDonald's. Self-Checkouts which glitches or can't detect a proper weigth and than you need to wait because there's only 1 cashier working in a whole supermarket, while the others are doing random bs. The same reason but whenever you buy alcohol/energy drinks so the cashier needs to accept that you're 18+. Trains being delayed. Quasi-documentary, the tv is soaked with it and it is almost impossible to watch anything else. How expensive it is on a Polish baltic beach, while on the more beautiful sea/ocean it is cheaper. Same goes for expensive and how scam money hunting are Gorals at Zakopane. National Football team, there are not enough words to say how bad they are. The fact that you have reserved places in a plane, in some trains etc. and yet everyone just charges in like the seat place is gonna f*cking dissepear. No matter how late or early hour of meeting you'll schedule there's always those people who are always late. Foreigns thinking that being Polish equals to understanding fluently Russian or Ukrainian, we don't fu**ing write or read cyrylic ffs, not to mention that those are foreign languages for us... Some people from some countries who are so confident in thinking that Poland is like a damn ruin and ask if we have a Zoo, Cinema or any other places like that, bruh we ain't living in a freaking cave... [even my French family couple of times asked about that my mother and I've been asked that too by others, it ain't that rare]. "Oh how cheap is Poland" yes we know, we ain't needing a comment which annoys. A foreigner who will try to impress "Oh you're Polish, kru kru kruwa?, sh sh shshshh shshsh etc."... Whenever any votes for mayor/president of cities are being held the half of towns are being in rennovations, because no one care about comfortable and normal quality of streets and infrastucture through 4 years, only before the votes... Yeah half of my town's streets right now are being in rennovations for that reason so the same mayor can be choosen again x)... Whatever book, recipe, tutorial which begins with a biography and sad life of the author which is the 80% of the text, for god f*cking sake, I want to know how to cook something, I don't care about your life. People who block the whole alley in a store with this metal carts... People trashing the nature, throwing trashes from cars etc... These spam messages, I've got to change my e-mail cause I've already have around 10k of those in my previous main e-mail.

There's too much of things which annoys me, as with enough time I would be able to think about several times more situations/stuff which annoys me. Gonna stop here as I already made myself angry by just thinking about those stuff

These sort of things don't bother me all that much since I have other things to worry about.

I guess one is I am starting to get bothered by how it seems nearly impossible to avoid synthetic fabrics in clothing. Do I really have to be covered head to toe in petrol products?

I also don't get why at my local dump they do not tell you the recycle number of plastic they take, they just use pictures of silhouettes of the container types they take and also do not instruct you if you are supposed to remove the soft plastic label first or if that isn't necessary.

Why can't nanohydroxyapetite toothpaste be easier to find? I have to buy all my toothpaste online and is many times more expensive. This stuff has been used in Japan for decades. Why is my only choice fluoride in toothpaste or nothing for stuff at stores?

It annoys me when people don't wash their hands after eating something and then touch other stuff with their greasy sticky fingers.

I hate when people move into my path when I'm filming. Like I'm standing there aiming my camera at something, doesn't take a genius does it?!

Also people not aware of their surroundings. Usually it's foreigners that are the worst, I can remember one time I was out somewhere and 2 polish women with dogs on leads were busy nattering, and they suddenly cut right in front of me and i was almost taken out by the bloody leads.

Also I always seem to get that one noisy kid right behind me at Wrestling shows that screams directly into my ears. My ears are ringing by the end.

my annoyance will mostly be on videogames, spamming emotes and teabagging all over the place

When you trip over a wire and whatever it was plugged into goes flying. I'll be walking around and then trip over my charging cable and send my phone, laptop, console or whatever I tripped over flying into the air and now I have to check if the device is alright (Most of the time it's perfectly fine but still extremely annoying.)

Also when I'm using wired headphones and it gets stuck on a door handle or something stupid like that and now everyone can hear my device blasting In Da Club at max volume. It would probably be even worse if I were listening to some anime openings but thankfully that's never happened to me.

Burnt food. My sister and mother like their food that is a bit burnt or crisp. Annoys the hell out of me.



Be safe and well travels,
Chris
