Re: Small things that annoy you (3)
I know, life is cruel. It's like when moth type thing (I'm more of an etymologist than an entomologist, sadly. It was flying and dusty...) dive-bombed my beautifully made brew recently. I'm not ashamed to say I wept gently, for at least as long as it took the kettle to re-boil.

Re: Small things that annoy you (3)
doing a good deed and ending up the worse for it; like that time a few months back when i helped a man lying on the road babbling away. Turned out he was just off his face on too much of something, but man did he stink, i had to go home again instead of shopping, as i'd planned, as my clothes were reeking of faeces.
Everyone was just standing in a wide circle watching him twitching on the floor screaming in abject horror at things that weren't there. I had already passed the scene by and turned the corner, but my conscience pulled me back around on account of no one doing anything. Do a good deed and come home stinking of junkie shit, a germaphobe's worst nightmare. today, coming out of t' chip shop i saw a raggedy-ass cat eating cold wet chips from a puddle in the lashing rain. As i got near it went and hid underneath a car. I hate the way people neglect their cats around here; i felt sorry for him so i went to the shop and bought him some cat food. I used the paper off my chips to put the food on (always thinking, see), but by the time i'd gotten back to where the cat had been hiding it was nowhere to be seen; the torrential rain had destroyed my makeshift paper plate and the wet paper had intermingled with the cat food and the rain water meaning that i was left walking up the high street with my hands held in front of me like a bowl - a bowl full of cat food, wet paper and rain water. Good thing no one was about to see that! Nor to see me as I discretely slopped the lot onto someone's wall near where the cat had last been (hopefully the cat saw it there, at least) |

Someone using the vacuum cleaner whilst you're trying to listen to the TV. It's doubly annoying if it's a specific news report which ends simultaneously with the vacuuming.

I blame the Americans. A 'bathroom' is now anything that contains a toilet.

Clocks going back. Like the extra hour of sleep, don't like the whole getting dark earlier thing. We should permanently switch to GMT+1 and get rid of DST – would make autumn/winter a bit less miserable.

Next door's blastingly loud telly. I moved away from a young couple who were very, very noisy with TV and music, and my new, middle aged neighbour is almost as bad.

'Brilliant White' gloss paint that turns yellow after a few months. No matter what brand I try, it always yellows. Bloody rubbish

My father used to make me eat on my own in the other room because i didn't use my fork in my left hand, or, if he couldn't be bothered to move me, he'd just hit me over the head with the fat end of the spoon. I never caved though, i'd rather sit in the cold on my own eating with my right hand and a lump on my head than give him a fecking inch. |

^Well at least the child has fun and gains some spatial awareness when it comes to controlling trolleys.
