What insignificant things bug you?

[fuzzybuddy]

Everybody hates death and taxes, but what tiny, little insignificant things just bug the heck out of you? It's the stuff most people wouldn't get upset about.

For me, it's that OB/GYN doc with those deodorant ads. I just have to change the channel, or I'll throw something at the TV.

I’m at the point where just about anything that happens when I’m awake is annoying to me.

Right now, other people’s noise is at the top of the list.

Winter in the city is the quiet season but spring has sprung.

Sounds like a first world problem.

 

[officerripley]

About 90 percent of sounds bug me.

 

[MaddHollander]

“My Child Is An Honor Roll Student” bumper stickers irritate me.

 

[MACKTEXAS]

Rudeness
Being late
Insincerity

 

[Pinky]

Aggressive people.

 

[Jackie23]

Negative people

 

[astralcat]

People who chew gum.

 

[fuzzybuddy]

People who chew gum.

Agreed, it's like a cow chewing its cud.

 

[hollydolly]

People who say heith instead of height...I don't know about outside the Uk but here it's endemic... verrrry irritating

Bad timekeeping...I never keep anyone waitting for an appointment unless there's a very good reason.. so I don't expect to be kept waiting by other people..it's the height of rudeness..

They're telling you that their time is more important than yours... ...

 

[Marcy Sheiner]

Yeah, lateness and noise are two of my biggest bugaboos.

 

[DebraMae]

Trite sayings like "it is what it is" or "pay it forward".

Oh my biggest pet peeve ever ! Having to wait on someone else to show up, and then not even a call to let you know they will be late or not coming.

yep I have to say it's absolutely infuriating for me

My 4th grade teacher had a poem"

The gum-chewing girl and the cud-chewing cow.
They're alike, but different somehow.

Oh, yes, I see it now!
It's the thoughtful look on the face of the cow.

To show one has sympathy: "You are in my thoughts." Ah, and that's gonna help me how?

 

[Knight]

Promoting ads for some miracle drug that cures whatever. But the side effects are potentially worse that what it's intended to cure.

...and that other oft trotted out trite phrase from authorities... especially after a horrible tragedy ''lessons will be learned ''

fortunately those ads are not allowed in the UK, but I do hear people mention them often on here

 

[gamboolman]

Yes, this one bugs me abit. I have noticed the last couple of years that mostly young folks respond to a "Thank You" with "No Problem" or something else but not a "Your Welcome"

Being raised in Deep East Texas - that was considered rude and disrespectful, and kids would be corrected on the spot.

We raised our children to use Thank You and Your Welcome and Yes Sir and Yes Mam.

God Willing, we will be around long enough to help ensure our little baby Granddaughter is taught the same.

Don't like rude behavior in folks...

 

[Krystal]

fortunate;y those ads are not allowed in the UK, but I do hear people mention them often on here

You are so lucky,Holly, that you do not have to watch every commerical watching big pharmaceutical companies peddling their drugs. I wish they would ban them here too.

I hate the sound of someone's car alarm going off while they do nothing about it for a 1/2 an hour or so.

I shrug off little, insignificant things and don't get bugged by them. My tolerance has increased with age.
