Really minor annoyances


Choking on your own spit which results in coughing your guts up ffs :lol:
Just did it before whilst trying to scoff a quality street toffee penny jobby, it's a good job I'd already chewed the bloody toffee :confused:

When you get a trolley at the supermarket and someone has left their receipts/vouchers in it. Messy tramps.

Likewise people who leave receipts/shite at the checkout before you come to use it.

Actually more than minor

Watching something on TV and adverts come on and they pump the volume so loud that you have to turn it down.. and then after the adverts you have to put the volume up again.. channel4 and ch 5 are buggers for it

This. Thought it was just my telly and/or soundbar playing up recently.

You'd think they'd sort it.




Another of mine; Evri and Yodel (by far the worst for it in my experience) being 'unable' to deliver a parcel with 'unknown problem, please contact us' as the reason for it, you then eventually speak to someone who assures you they have it, it'll be delivered within 48 hours, and already you know it's been lost or nicked. 9/10 ends up in a refund.

Just own up and tell me it's been lost ffs, comes off a lot better than waiting days then having to get a refund sorted.

I find increasingly in society that people/businesses are refusing to just accept they've ballsed up and sort the issue out, rather than deflecting everything as much as possible. I'm not in a pitchfork brigade to bring you down, just want to know what's happening with my stuff.

Also when people just dump their trolley’s next to the car rather than walking the extra 30 seconds to put it into the trolley bay

I was in Asda with a friend and she went to just leave her trolley so i just put it back and got a sarky ‘well aren’t you just perfect’ remark. Erm no, it took me less than a minute and it’s a windy day. You’d go ballistic if a trolley drifted into the side of your car

I shop in Asda and just accept it'll be frequented by lard-arsed ignoramuses.

Go to Sainsbury's or M&S food and it's like a different species. Nae one is filling up half the aisle with one cheek of their hippo arse for a start.

When ever you buy anything online nowadays you're constantly bombarded by emails asking 'How did we do?'
You did fine, I paid for the stuff and you arranged for delivery, I then received it. If you ignore them you get another email, then another, then another . . . until you get sick and fill in a review just to shut them up. Then you get annoyed at yourself for giving in to their demands. Then they'll bombard you with measly 5% off offers for then until eternity.
 
Online forms that disable pasting into the verify email field.

I'm not sure why that field is even needed. Usually you are buying something for them to post and they don't care about verifying your address, just your email address. Being forced to type it makes it more likely for you to make a mistake, or having typed it once you should be able to check it is correct and then copy & paste. Or just check it is correct and it is your fault if any of the details are wrong.

Or you can do what some tit does, who has the same name as me, just use my googlemail address instead. I have ended up on all sorts of mailing lists and was even the contact for a hire car on a holiday they were going on. I got a few mails about payment, so I cancelled that one.
