minor things that make you fume

[Charles Hawtrey]

People who have to constantly make noise.
Whistling, singing, playing with their phones. Just constant.

people who have the sound turned on when they press a button on their phone.... my god!!!!

Agree fully. I count myself lucky that History was still being taught as a subject way back in the sixties.

I think my kids picked up more history from us than they did at school. We had Koi fish in the garden pond, one of them had a little colour above his lip so he was called Hitler. his partner was of course named Stalin. Kids wanted to know all about the history after we named them. Later they were joined by Mao, btw.

Went on a run but my Strava didn’t work so all my mates are gonna think I getting lazy.

People saying yourself and myself instead of you and me
I remember the lessons we had at school
Me my myself
You your yourself
They are not interchangeable.... grumble

I have an irrational hatred of seeing people in the act of smoking a cigarette, I find it to be an absolutely disgusting habit that has no place in the modern world. When a person takes a drag of a cig what makes them go back for a second, it honestly baffles me. Then you stink of, your clothes stink of it and it is just generally dirty, not too mention the million chemicals making it up.

Anyway just started watching a sci-fi film set in the year 2242 and it showed people smoking. I honestly don't believe smoking will be a thing in 220 year time so it really peed me off lol

I can't help it, it genuinely bothers me seeing people smoking on the tv. it's bad enough in real life, TV shouldn't be promoting it.

My Dad smoked 50 a day (I have never smoked). When he was doing his arranging at the piano in the front room, it was like a fog if you went in. He also drank copious cups of coffee (Camp coffee) couldn't get proper coffee. (1940's) He stopped smoking when he was 45, never smoked again. He lived to 93.

Did the Yorkshire three peaks but forgot my fitbit. Was absolutely fuming. It's like it didn't really happen!!

The little plastic gubbins on a loaf ; end up tearing off half the loaf bag trying to open the damn thing

My favourite is the plastic packaging on a pair of scissors, which you need scissors to open.

 

[TaffyToffee85]

Covid phrases and words like Covidiot and “fun” stories on news media websites of people doing stupid things to entertain themselves during lockdown.

Maybe it’s trivial (hopefully), but this news of a super league really is making me fume.

I hate that. Noticed a big change as soon as I came to live in Spain. It's horrendous how Loud the incidental music comes at me after struggling to hear the dialogue. Then when the adverts* come on it's even louder.

*Adverts over here is another thing that makes me fume. Literally half an hour of adverts before a film starts. Advert breaks of increasing length as the film draws to it's conclusion. Often culminating in 15, 20 or 25 minute advert break before the last 15 seconds of the film. Not exaggerating. I wish I was.

I categorically refuse to watch adverts. My time on earth is too precious to me to allow it to be thieved by middle men trying to sell me something I'll never buy (anything advertised is crap).
If there's a film on and its worth watching I'll just rather buy the dvd or download rather than put up with an ad. If the film isn't that great then I'll happily miss it if there are ads. It breaks the fourth wall and spoils even the best film.

Due to covid restrictions being widely ignored pretty much coming to an end in England all the crap drivers are back out on the roads, and they've all got worse through lack of recent practice. Four times in the last 24 hours I have sat impatiently behind imbeciles doing 30mph on a 50mph road that only has one viable spot for overtaking.
