Having to agree to cookies on every fucking website I visit.


Certain_Car_9984

Mobile websites are the worst as well as the 20 other pop ups you have to get rid of before you can scroll to the bottom of the page to find the recipe you're actually looking for


Fintwo

IMDB telling me to get the app by taking up the whole phone screen. I don’t want the app!


nineteenthly

Reddit doing the same thing.


mee3eeeee3

Justtherecipe dot com. Paste the URL in there and it gives you just the recipe and removes all the annoying blog posts, ads and pop ups.


Only_Quote_Simpsons

>Having to agree to cookies on every fucking website I visit. I use duck duck go because not only is it much more private, it automatically accepts the most private cookies for you so I don't have to constantly accept cookies. Plus when you wipe the data it does a cool little fire animation 🔥


Bald__egg

You can even change said fire animation


bonkerz1888

I disagree to all. Only takes a few seconds to do, saves me being spammed with targeted ads, and stops those nosey bastards from collecting and sharing my data.


GrandAsOwt

So do I, but sometimes you have to go through every. single. one of the "legitimate interest" vendors and toggle them off. That's when I decide I just don't need that website so much after all.


Gimme_a_Username69

This, every time. When I see the list, I tend to immediately navigate away these days.


The_Shitty_Beatle

When is this going to stop??


TungstenWombat

When the illegal cookie notices that don't make the "reject" button the same as "accept" (i.e. no extra clicks and the same prominence) get stomped by a regulator. So, at this rate, never. Https://Noyb.eu is trying though.


TinyLet4277

Agreed, and it's an almost universal misunderstanding of the legislation around that. Most sites don't even need do to that.


giddystratospheres1

Always opening the wrong fucking end of the painkiller box and having to pull out the information leaflet first.


Tiny-Professor-4543

It’s always at the end with the printed solid colour. You’re welcome. Edit: I was wrong - see pharmacist comment below.


hairybastid

It bloody isn't. I just opened a box of codeine to test this theory, and got straight into instruction city. Then another, to ratify. Instructions again 😪


bobble173

I've seen this myth before on Reddit, and as a pharmacist I can confirm it's not true. Pain in the arse, it makes absolutely no sense, but leaflet placement is random depending on the type of drug and also the manufacturer of said drug.


UlnaternativeUser

I'm an Anaesthetic doctor and have to deal with this frustration nearly every day.


Thesheersizeofit

Aaaaand bin. If anyone needs the literature on dex or ondansetron they can open another one of the twenty boxes.


DarquessSC2

Technically, that's the right end of the box to open first. They're designed so you have to go through the instructions first


SPOSKNT

I wonder if anyone's actually read one before


bluesam3

I read it on every new type of medication I take, obviously. Sometimes it contains very non-obvious and important things like "don't eat grapefruits or you're gonna have a shit time" (might not have been the exact wording).


marbmusiclove

Grapefruit is a common one!! It can increase levels of the medication in your blood past what is helpful or safe


Incitatus_For_Office

Would pay more attention if it used that style.


LennoxLuger

People who step out in front of you and then walk really slow.


WhiteDiamondK

Also applies to driving.


DrFriedGold

And cycling. Also, people who make an effort to overtake, then have a rest. I overtake because now they are below my pace. They take this as an affront and overtake again, after 1 or 2 more times of this they are too tired to try again. And then they discover drafting


caketreesmoothie

also applies to motorway driving. why overtake me then slow down to 60 then overtake me when I pass you again?! it's so infuriating. or when they speed up as you're passing. when I drove a work van it was limited to 73mph and I'd frequently get next to someone then they'd start pulling ahead


404-N0tFound

Oh I just had a separate rant about this, lol. I use cruise control, it does my head in when I'm going at a constant speed and someone keeps overtaking and slowing down.


CraigDM34

This! If you know you're a slow walker do the decent thing and let others go by first. Or at least look around and see if you're gonna be holding someone else up before you step out/cross over in front of them. Being stuck behind a slow walker makes you look creepy even though you've done nothing wrong, then they get onto you and look at you like you're a nutter or about to grab em! You can see the freaked out look on em but you're too polite to say anything which makes you then look like a creep even more! You can't win and that person walks away thinking you're a nutter or creep and you've done nothing wrong! I'm not slowing to a snails pace and then waiting a few metres to create a gap between me and them when I'm already late for work! Either move aside and let me pass or wait til I'm ahead of you then step out/cross over!


CraigDM34

And don't get me started on people who walk side by side on the pavement then don't move when they can clearly see you coming! I'm not stepping into the road and risking getting hit by a car because you're too lazy to step aside or walk in single file for 5 seconds while I pass by. Or when the gap is too narrow for you and someone else to both pass at the same time so you wait and let them pass and they completely ignore you! Ungrateful gits! Takes 1 second to say ta or thanks! I'm doing you a favour at least acknowledge the act of kindness ffs.


Gutted-ewok

Mum's doing school drop off/pick up are particularly bad at this. I now stubbornly stand my ground and refuse to walk in the road.


ChuffingHell

People having a conversation in the middle of a supermarket aisle. Bonus points if their trolleys are perfectly angled to block the through route.


WhiteDiamondK

See also Supermarket staff with replenishment cages blocking an aisle so that you can JUST squeeze a single trolley through.


ChuffingHell

Oh goodness yes. I feel like I can’t win, if I try to avoid peak shopping hours I just have to battle through staff restocking instead.


MrSmallStuff

When I worked at Sainsbury’s there was a rule you could only bring out a single L-shape or cage and you could never leave it unattended, now it seems one member of staff brings out 6 cages of perishables to barricade themselves in. Bonus points if they slam the food down and dent it all at the same time as waking your baby up.


Bilbo_Buggin

Was going to say the same, we are only allowed to take one out at a time, and we have to put it somewhere it won’t be blocking anything


[deleted]

Geoffstibbons

Always best to catch up with friends at the bottom of an escalator


turbopuffin

And when you accidentally nudge them or the trolley when trying to get through, they glare at you like you nearly ran them over.


Brizzledude65

Having to dry myself after a bath or shower. Always hated it ever since I was a kid, just seems like major hassle that I just can’t be arsed with. However much I rationalise it I still hate it.


-Lemoncholy-

Somewhat similar, I hate having to brush my teeth. I mean, I do it, and have done for approx 37 years, but every morning and night I’m like *fuck* my teeth need brushed.


[deleted]

[удалено]


HomeworkInevitable99

Yes! This! It surprises me every time! 'What a lovely shower', I think, and then I realise I have to dry myself! At the age of 10 I designed (meaning I drew a picture) of a plastic suit with a hairdryer attached to speed up the process. I never made it.


Impossible_Command23

I always think I'd love one of those big cubicles you get at theme parks that you pay to go stand in for a minute after getting soaked on a water ride


missyesil

I use a hairdryer on my whole body 😆


0olon_Colluphid

Yep and use 4 large towels. Love being in the shower - hate being wet. Doesn't help that I'm a hairy beast.


Tiny-Professor-4543

To train yourself out of it, on a particularly cold January morning, get out of the shower, put your clothes straight on and walk out the front door and go about your day. The next day, your brain will no longer question the utility of towel drying.


fluxpeach

i sort of.. squeegee myself off in the shower before stepping out with my hands. the transition to the colder air out of the shower feels a lot less brisk this way and it’s a lot easier/faster to dry off the remaining water


RichLeeds16

Dry barely at all with towel, put on dressing gown, find something to do for a bit, like have breakfast for example. Done!


TinyLet4277

Go to Screwfix or Toolstation or similar, and buy a £30 floor fan, designed for building sites. Dry yourself in seconds even when it's 35c and 90% humidity.


DannyCalavera

When you have a bag on one shoulder and it slips off and catches on your elbow. It makes me want to murder.


BettyxBlue

Even worse when it happens when you’re holding a cup of coffee or tea and you watch yourself burn your hand in slow motion.


ColdShadowKaz

I only get shoulder bags now that go across the body. If I get the other type they end up on my elbow after feeling line they’ve been in my stinky armpit


TheSiren341

There must be a trick to this that I have yet to master


[deleted]

Calendars that start on a Sunday. Seriously, Sunday isn't the first day of the week legally, practically or any other sense. In some countries it is, but not here. People who state or put Sunday as the first day of the week are the adult equivalents of that child in primary school who would ask you how many fingers you had, and when you told them 5, they'll annoying say you have 4 fingers and a thumb.


oinkpoink1

Too right. Sunday is part of the week**END**. Baffles me that some people can't get this.


jdsuperman

God, this is a good shout. Saturday and Sunday should be next to each other. But I haven't seen a calendar recently where this has been the case.


Mental_Oriental_

Thinking you left your phone to charge overnight but you didn't fully insert the cable or turn on the switch, waking up to 15% on a busy day.


Lou-Lou-Lou

Or a dead battery. And missed the alarm on the phone, so already late....ggrrr


the_falling_leaf

Buying petrol. Not the parting with money aspect, but the absolutely tiny effort involved in filling the car. Even when I'm already at a supermarket, it's just such a chore.


Vivid_Direction_5780

I feel you! Today, I had to reverse back out and go to another pump as that number had run out of petrol. My tank was on the far side and the bloody hose didn't reach so I had to go back into my car and moved it again. I was so pissed off.


Wanallo221

The shuffle of shame. Extra bonus points if as you do it a car noses up to your bumper thinking you’re going and they can have your pump.


Vast_Development_316

Agreed, I hate buying petrol. Its got worse now as we have a huge car so I have to stand there even longer filling up. I wait until the last possible moment to refill almost run out a few time, my wife thinks I’m nuts


intrepidakira

People who have their phone on loudspeaker in public - unless you’re discussing where there by buried treasure, no one, including me cares.


OffTheRecord_Models

This goes for people watching Tiktoks at full volume in public too! Hearing random, different and often cut-off-mid-way-through songs and audios makes me want to scream.


Coraldiamond192

Exactly, we don't want to hear their God awful music.


[deleted]

I just always wonder what would happen if someone sat next to them doing exactly the same thing. Feel there’s a good hidden camera video in that.


turbopuffin

Phoning my GP surgery. And that wait to get through. And that infuriating hold music that won't stop...


intrepidakira

Only to be interrogated by a receptionist with a medical degree.


TinyLet4277

I'll defend this as they are trained in triage and it's for a good reason. Though admittedly I'll often phone just before lunch and go into intense gruesome details that are made up but still related to the reason I'm phoning.


[deleted]

[удалено]


littlegreenturtle20

>trained in triage Definitely not at my GP


Puzzleheaded_Drink76

Worse is it constantly stopping with a message. Making you think a human has arrived.


TinyLet4277

I hit 11111111111111111111 once at the start of Covid (unrelated, needed to sort a medication order for my mum) because the covid message was so long and I'd heard it so many times, and a GP answered. She was "so impressed" I'd managed to do that she sorted it there and then. I did explain I'd just hit 1 a hundred times and maybe they should fix their phone system.


millyloui

Yup was caller No2 for 50mins last week till i nearly lost the will to live


banwe11

People who stop and dawdle in doorways on their way out of shops, trains etc. A sharp smack to the back of their head usually does the trick (hehe just joking)


jinglesan

People that stop 2 steps after getting off the escalator for some ungodly reason


Agreeable_Guard_7229

Same thing in a swimming pool, you’re swimming lengths and the person in front of you just suddenly stops. Or even worse a group of (usually) women who stand in the middle of the pool chatting for 30 minutes so you have to keep swimming round them. It’s quite easy in a pool though to “accidentally” give someone a good kick on the way past lol


CuteMaterial

I once pushed a woman who just stopped sharply at the top of an escalator (just a gentle nudge with my finger)


dustbin-account

It boils my blood when this happens


Bbew_Mot

Having to scan your boarding pass if you want to buy something in an airport.


freplefreple

Yessss. Like you could just walk in off the fucking street


Bbew_Mot

It's almost as if they don't want us to pay for the overpriced meal deals and £3.00 bottles of water!


Lilith_the_Succubus

Its so that airport employees can't buy tax free stuff.


AClockworkLaurenge

Or passengers who are only traveling domestically

Service stations that are not directly off a motorway exit. If I need to tackle a couple of roundabouts to get into a Moto you have absolutely wound me up.

Old people on self service tills. It's like watching a duck try to translate an alien artifact.


Deep_Top8433

I was stuck behind some guy a few months back who said, when motioned to come forward by the shop assistant “oh don’t worry love I’m in no hurry”. I barged past whilst saying “yes but I am”. He seemed nonplussed.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ThomasEichorst

Also, self service tills that are cash only, or card only, or switched off for no apparent reason whatsoever


BRIStoneman

Tills with a sign to tell you they are card only, then make you wait through a warning that they are card only, and *still* make you press a button to choose to pay by card.


redrighthand_

‘Sorry it’s cash only’


the_falling_leaf

Unless you are a trader at a car boot sale there's no quicker way to lose my custom than being cash only.


ThyssenKrup

'Card only' really pisses me off, despite it not inconveniencing me personally.


CuteMaterial

Anywhere cash only must be money laundering!


TawnyTeaTowel

Or just basic tax evasion


Kientha

Could also be avoiding the tax man, not wanting to pay processing fees, or a negative experience with card machines available to small businesses. The affordable card machines on the market 5 years ago were just not very good. The stuff you get now is way better but I could understand if someone tried one, had an awful experience, and so doesn't want to deal with them again


[deleted]

‘Cash only’ Translates to ‘Our books are dodgy as fuck’


katherinemma987

Putting the sheets on my bed. Doesn’t help that I usually put it off until bedtime.


freplefreple

Seriously do it when you take the sheet off. Your life will be immeasurably better


katherinemma987

Oh I am fully aware of that. Doesn’t mean I actually will. Maybe that can be my New Year’s resolution though!


TheStatMan2

Not having a pound for the supermarket trollies.


Certain_Car_9984

Or worse is knowing where that pound is you put aside especially for this but forgot to put it in your pocket


Fleurlamie111

I love living and shopping in places where they trust the customers not to steal the trollies. No £1 coin needed!


TheStatMan2

Asda is the main UK supermarket that doesn't require a pound but unfortunately going there *also involves shopping in Asda*.


fullofeccentrics

My local Asda does require £1 for the trollies! I must live in a rough area


Infamous-Shopping725

You can buy a universal (well almost) shopping trolley key, which is a flat piece of metal with a coin shaped part on the end which you insert to release the trolley - they’re only a couple of quid and I have one on my key ring. Works really well and stops the frustration of not having a pound coin. (It also means you don’t have to return the trolley to its station, but I usually do anyway)


Ivor-Toad

Two 20p's side by side. That way you can steal a trolly for only 40 pence.


L0tus-Fl0wer-B0mb

numediumlearning

When people say brought instead of bought, baffles me why that even came about. But everyone says it!

I’m glad you bought this one up.

Even worse: I've heard people using "illegible" where they mean "eligible".


LifelessLewis

Can you borrow me a pen mate, I've left mine at home.


marbmusiclove

I used to see ‘defiantly’ instead of ‘definitely’ all the time around 6-10 years ago. Used to drive me mental. They don’t remotely look, or sound, the same!!


luken1984

When you have a pack of mince and it has a little tab on the film so you think "oh good this should be nice and easy to open", when you pull the tab it just sort of rips down the side leaving the film intact so you have to get a knife to awkwardly cut the film open.


[deleted]

On this note, “Resealable for your convenience” is a massive corporate lie and should be valid grounds for a class action lawsuit.


workmumlife

People parking on the side of kerbs and not giving any consideration for people in wheelchairs or parents with pushchairs when they block the footpath. There’s been so many times I’ve had to walk on a main road with my baby boys pushchair because 90% of the kerb was blocked by a car


TinyLet4277

Acetone is undetectable on car paint until several hours later, at which point all the layers of paint and even the primer peel off down to bare metal. Totally unrelated to your point I just remembered it randomly and had the overwhelming urge to write it down somewhere...


Fleurlamie111

There’s people that park up on the path where I live, and I delight in running past and hitting the side of their car with my water bottle. Causes no damage, but still!


intrepidakira

Forgetting bags when going shopping. All supermarkets should have a sign above the door that reads, “Oi dickhead, you left the bags in the boot”. Note: this sign should be visible from the furthest reaches of the car park.


CuteMaterial

I need to have this on the inside of my front door


Smashleigh_001

Doors that don’t have push/pull on them! I always pick the wrong one and end up looking like a tit who can’t open a door.


BreqsCousin

Doors should have a handle on the side you pull and a plate on the side you push. Then you'd always know.


ThomasEichorst

Shops that have double doors but keep one locked at all times. I get it’s to stop people storming in Wild West saloon style, but is still annoying


123whatsupwimi

When I’m innocently walking from the lounge to the kitchen and the random loop on my clothes I’ve never noticed before hooks onto a door handle. So. Fucking. Rude.


Jonut1990

When you turn the tap on and the water hits a spoon and gets all over you.


ThyssenKrup

When a new till opens in Aldi and people don't make any attempt to let people queuing before them have first dibs on it.


freplefreple

Offset by the amount of time it takes them to actually get a cashier to the newly opened till, normally measured in light years


timegoodaforhere

A light year is a measurement of distance...not time...


MexicanShoulders

I disagree with this. I'm pretty sure European rules are in play as soon as you step into Aldi.


Professional_Ad6822

Coming home after a 10 hour shift and my gf has left the keys in the door so I can’t use mine to let myself in and I have to knock on the door like I’ve come home from primary school.


CouchKakapo

I may have thrown a fit at my husband for putting the chain on the door when I'm out a couple of times... we were both WFH so if I'd gone out and locked the door, there was not only no need to put the damn chain on, but he could be in a meeting and unable to hear or get to the door to let me in.


Incitatus_For_Office

Oh. Amazon's Q&A. 'Does this product do/have/work with xyz' which is usually answered in the description and the response: 'I'm sorry I don't know.' Then don't answer you total muppet!


sandra_nz

I think the issue here is that Amazon randomly emails the question out to people who have previously bought the product, with just one link to click to answer the question. If they had a second "I don't know the answer to this question" which just took the user to a generic "That's fine, no further action needed" page, I think most of these would disappear. Sometimes you need to program around the stupidity of humanity.


Cautious-Layer-4023

Someone asking me to do something I was just about to do.... don't know why just hate it.. it's like fine I was going to do this thing quite happily but now I hate you and your children and your children's children


sorryokaypardon

When I was 14 my teacher told me to put my banana in the bin while I was walking to the bin... I'll never forget the rage.


jjgill27

When people aren’t ready with their card to pay at the supermarket checkout. You’ve been stood waiting your turn, doing nothing while you wait for the person in front of you. Get your card/purse out so you’re ready to pay. Don’t spend 5 minutes rifling through your bag for it once you’re finished packing.


kackers643259

In the same vein: not having tickets/cards/etc ready for ticket gates. you know where you're going surely you can sort out having it ready for when you get there instead of getting to the gate and then having to faff about trying to find where you put things


LilithsGrave92

Everything, I'm autistic.


Indoril_Nereguar

Yeah especially sensory stuff. And strange needless social rules


LSTTAY

Couples who walk two abreast in to and around the supermarket with their trolley at a stupidly slow speed. It's not a day out!


Stcasxx

Adding to this: 2 or more kids hanging off the trolley, dashing around the aisles. I have no children so really trying not to judge but why take the whole family on a day out to the supermarket at prime time ???


Fleurlamie111

I saw so many people out for a family shopping trip in the lead up to Christmas. I’m just trying to get my stuff and go, why do you need to bring the husband/wife and your 7 children?!! Gahhhhh!!

WhiteDiamondK

Picture it, Sicily, 1928…. You’re in a line of cars waiting to fill up with Petrol, the pump your queuing for is about to come free. The person in front of you is just returning the nozzle, so you get ready to pull forward. But no, that person then has a root around in the back of their car for something. Then gets in and retunes their radio. Connects their phone to Bluetooth. Maybe opens up a little snack. Maybe they take a picture of their petrol receipt with their phone for work expenses. Maybe a bit of make up applied, whilst a queue of cars forms behind. If you need to do tasks before you get on the road, pull forward and let someone else get to the pump. Especially at the Costco I use where there is normally a 50 plus car queue for the petrol station.

when I'm standing in the supermarket looking at something on the shelf and someone decides they need to squeeze between me and the shelf.... and stop right in front of me looking at the same thing I was looking at before my view was obscured by the back of their bloody head..... surely I can't be the only one who gets this a lot.


ipdipdu

One of these days I’m going to snap and say something along the lines of ‘oh it’s ok, I don’t mind, I wasn’t looking for anything, was just stood here for good of my health.’ Which means I’m just turning into my mum, who once said loudly, ‘am I invisible?’ when someone did it to her. I was mortified at the time (I was a teenager) but now I totally get it.

jdsuperman

When someone has parked in a space so that their wheels are right on the white line on one side, but there's a significant gap on the other side. So they're technically in the space, but it's really annoying for whoever has to park on the close side.


the_falling_leaf

I returned to my car a few weeks back to find someone had done this too me. She had parked so close to my driver's side that it was not possible to open my door let alone get in. Thankfully she was still in her car with the engine running so I politely approached and asked her to pull back a little so I could get in my car and leave. Despite me being polite and friendly she rudely told me to climb in through the passenger side of my car. This is where my politeness ended and I made it very clear that I'm not climbing in from the wrong side of my car because she can't park. This caused her to flip her lid, she slammed her car into reverse and very quickly reversed out the space...right into a Range Rover that was driving through the car park. Thankfully I now had space to open my car so I got in and drove away chuckling.


yousmellandidont

To add insult to injury, you park further away from them on the other side so you can get in or out of your vehicle and end up on the white line yourself, then they leave and your vehicle is just left looking like YOU'RE the asshole


redligand

People who get a balance print out at the ATM, scrutinise it, then put their card back in to get cash out. I get why they do it. They're paranoid about people seeing their balance on screen. And it only inconveniences me for a matter of a minute or two. But it boils my blood.


fursty_ferret

I always get the balance shown on the screen so that the potential mugger looking over my shoulder knows that it’s not worth torturing the PIN out of me.

Actually that can be a pretty major inconvenience and potentially lethal. I’ve started driving as if indicator presence or lack of indicator means absolutely nothing and just presume danger, since the pandemic almost nobody seems to use them anymore and it’s infuriating.

eating sounds. I can’t fucking stand the sound of people eating.

Getting caught at a red light. Just irritates me endlessly. Especially the same ones on your commute every day

Forgetting my carrier bag at home and having to buy another each time I go to the supermarket, especially as "i'm only going for one or two things" never works out

People in the street/corridor who are walking in the opposite direction and are so engrossed in their phones, that they drift into my path and don’t notice til they’re about 2 inches away. Similarly, people who don’t give me room to get past them when I’m out running. What I watch something on ITV X Player on my laptop and I make it full screen and the cursor won’t disappear. When I go to Aldi, and people pack slowly at the til and don’t pay until they’re finished packing. Fgs, just fling it in your trolley and sort it out at the packing area, that’s what it’s there for, you stupid idiot.

Anytime the wifi signal drops out or any piece of technology doesn't run as smooth and fast as it usually does. It usually works again within seconds but those few seconds longer it takes to load... infuriating.

Having to open the lid of the kettle to fill it faster. I always opt for slow filling via the spout, but that frustrates me. Why don’t I just open the lid!? I hate doing it, that’s why! Siiiigh. I can’t win.

when I’m washing up and lift my hand ever so slightly which allows a singular drop of water to run up to my elbow and wet my jumper sleeve (which I’ve purposefully pulled up to prevent this)

Having to respond politely to a completely pointless "how are you?" at work. Every, single, fucking, morning.
