Really minor annoyances


Those new plastic lids on pop bottles that you now can't completely screw off.

Boooo !!!
Saw a video of some Scottish lass surmising that Jamie Oliver had something to do with them. He irritates me greatly so I'm going with that.
Fading eyesight and getting clumsy.
Recipe for disaster whilst fishing. Noticed both these fishing this week.
But at least you can blame lies about catch size on eyes if caught out.

The weight never lies 🤣
I caught a monster Chub of 7lb. Unfortunately it’s been tough and the Otters have decimated the Barbel population.
 
Friends with really narrow-minded interests, particularly music. Only things they like aren't deemed 'shite'.

They usually can't sing or play a note, but deem themselves the kings of taste. Even stuff I don't particularly get into or find cool, I can admire someone's singing chops or talent. I need to find less dull friends, tbh. They're like that twat in Father Ted that Dougal tries to ingratiate himself with.
 
People not locking public toilet doors. We keep opening cubicle doors and finding startled people mid-wee 😳
Guilty I'm afraid. In my defence I once fainted behind a locked toilet door and people couldn't get to me. I was throwing up so luckily I didn't have my knickers round my ankles.

Won't be a problem for you, but in the gents, folk stand and pee with the door wide open, as if to public demonstrate they're not sitting down for one. Just close the bastard door; I'm not interested.

What is the difference between pissing in a urinal and pissing in a toilet? No need to close the door really.
 
Happened to me twice today. Queuing at traffic lights, turns to green and back to red before my car has a chance to move. Infuriating.

To give other people the courtesy of not possibly accidentally walking into an occupied cubicle.

The same pricks probably don't indicate at roundabouts and give other road users the gamble of guessing in that situation too.
 
People who whistle. Specifically the old bastard who walks my house every morning at 6:30 am for his paper belting out the 1960's hit parade in that really irritating warbly vibrato style.
