high on my list is getting a rock in my flip flop and then I can't get it to get out. Like, the entire shoe is on by a string and I can't flop it out of there!! Thinking about it pisses me off. haha.
What's yours?

When I’m trying to get off an elevator and people getting on won’t stop and let me off before they try to get on.

not infuriate but get amusingly annoyed at 1) people who still use checks and 2) insisting on writing out their checks when places like Costco have automatic check writers

When there are multiple checkout lanes (like at a grocery store) and one person telling people where to go. I HATE people telling me what line to get in because inevitably the line ends up taking longer than the one I wanted to choose myself. This used to happen ALL THE TIME at a military PX.
Now I just say “No thanks” in a super cheery voice and wave to throw them off, lol.

Calling a company or other and getting the auto voice thingy that asks me to state my issue or my name or account number or anything else. Give me a freakin live person!! I just repeat over and over "representative" until the computer gives up and puts me through to someone with a heartbeat.

Haha, I’m the person who stands still and says “you can’t get on until you let me out” I hate that too! I hate it when drivers don’t pull up to be closer to the car in front of them. Like why did you just leave 2 spaces in front of you?

My DH will wait until a show comes on---he knows what time... and then will cross in front of the tv to go the bathroom, then cross again to get to his chair. He will sit for 5 minutes then cross in front to get a can of soda. He'll drink the soda and cross in front to throw the can away and then again back to his seat. This infuriates me! I make sure I go the bathroom, get a drink and get settled before the show starts!!

When you have spent many minutes waiting in a checkout line and a new lane opens...for the people at the end who can run the fastest.

In the evening, I watch TV upstairs. DH watches his shows downstairs. Works great....until.....
Why oh why does his show *always* end 5 minutes before mine do and he comes upstairs and starts talking about his show (that I have zero interest in) while my show has 5 more minutes to go. And there goes the conclusion of my show drowned out in his long-winded summary of his show. I've hit the record button on the DVR on countless shows so I can go back later to see the how the heck they ended. (And speaking of DVR's why do some shows record the last 5 minutes and others it get the whole darn thing!) What really annoys me is that I rarely have time to go back and watch the endings of my shows and by the time I do, I hardly remember the plot of the show. Ugh .

We binge watched two whole seasons of Timeless on Netflix, only to find out that the 2-part conclusion (because the show was then cancelled so they had to wrap it up) isn't available online anywhere.

On my commuter train, there are 5 seats in each row. 2 on one side, 3 on the other. Sometimes, someone will sit in the middle seat of the 3 seat side with (I presume) the hopes of no one else sitting there so they get the whole row to themselves. Oh, and they usually have their crap on the aisle seat. These are rush hour trains - people are going to want to sit.
I wouldn't go out of my way to sit in row with someone doing that but every once in a while, it will be the "best seat" option and I'll ask them to move their things so I can sit. That person will always go to get up and let me in and I always respond that I'm good here on the aisle since you weren't sitting there in the first place. That has never been well received. ha!

Like why did you just leave 2 spaces in front of you? My husband does that and it makes me crazy. He said it's in case we get rear-ended, we won't hit the car in front of us. I usually respond with "why are you ok with having less space in front of us when we're on the highway and the chance of getting hit is much greater?" Driving is a hot topic for us.

I am in Seattle. I had a great morning seeing one BFF and now I am just chilling at the BnB and I have a serious headache. Wtf? We are having an over the top good time. I have a stupid, undeserved headache. Maybe if I fall asleep I will be ok?

1. Live music in bars.
2. School supply lists.
3. People who do not cross at the signal when there is one nearby. I guess I shouldn't be irritated by it because this stupidity brings clients to the firm I work for, but it annoys TF outta me.

Students who email me to ask what they should be reading for class this week instead of looking at the schedule ON THE SAME WEBSITE THEY EMAILED ME FROM. (Dumba$$es)
Generally, the exact same students as above who email to ask why they got X grade on an assignment when all that information is on the rubric and the marked paper online.
I swear online students can be the laziest creature on the planet.

I just got back from an overseas vacation (which was great, def not complaining about that!!) and I have so many travel annoyances that I was thinking of starting a new thread just for that In general though I get unreasonably irritated by people who can't be bothered to look up from their phone when they're walking somewhere, especially in crowded areas or crossing the street. They wander (read: zig-zag) whichever way that suits them at a slow pace and are totally oblivious to everything around them (vehicles, other people trying to get by at a reasonable pace, etc.)

My blood pressure is rising just thinking about people standing in the door of a subway car, thereby making all the people exiting and entering the car squeeze around them when there is plenty of space in the car for them to STEP TO THE SIDE until the doors close again.
It makes me mad way out of proportion to the crime.

I just repeat over and over "representative" until the computer gives up and puts me through to someone with a heartbeat. Yes! Because even though they do this, I will still have to repeat the issue to any and eveyone that tries to help anyhow.

Yes to this -- so that by the time I reach an actual human being, I'm so annoyed from having to go through their (*&*%$ auatomated menu system that I'm probably very unpleasant to said human.
When confronted with a phone menu system, my strategy is usually to just keep pressing 0 (zero) to see if I can reach a representative. Sometimes it works -- other times it gets me into an endless loop with the annoyingly calm automated voice saying "I'm sorry, I didn't understand that. Can you please repeat your request?..." and then I'm back where I started. Oh well, at least it does work some of the time!

A Very Small Thing: Facebook memes that are funny, to-the-point, and fit me, but with a spelling mistake so I can't repost them.
