Yep all of the above - oh and being called darling by perfect strangers.

Oh dear... grin

If that's the case SirChenJin, my daughter needs HRT and she's not 40 yet.

So many things...

People who say phone numbers wrong, i.e. it should be 07865 123456 and not 078 65123 45 6

People who call their dogs ‘furbabies’

Shop assistants who don’t acknowledge you and continue speaking to their colleagues while they serve you

Frost on my windscreen that doesn’t look like frost until I start driving and then I realise I can’t see - this usually happens when I’m running late

Losing my keys. I do this all the time and it drives me insane.

I could go on and on but I’ll spare you all. I seem to be irritated a lot nowadays - hopefully it’s just a phase and the HRT will sort me out grin

Urmstongran, that one makes me want to gag. Urgh. Get a room and spare the rest of us.

Mrs. Fred. Jones. Eh? Don't you have a name.

People that don't move over on the path when you're on a collision course. Better hope I'm not having an off day or you'll be bumped into.

People who are arrogant enough to dominate conversations without listening to others. It's a 2 way street, and if it isn't I'm not going to listen to you.

Gregory Porter: "I’ve had some surgery on my skin, so this has been my look for a little while and will continue to be for awhile longer. People recognise me by it now. It is what it is."
So, it is for medical reasons.

Me too for that one.
And women who identify as ‘Fred’s wife ‘ and don’t have their own email address.

PS found Gregory Porter on YT. You learn something new everyday on here.

People who describe their partner as their soulmate.

Who’s Gregory Porter ?

Gregory Porter’s daft hat, he does have a good voice though.

Shop assistants who say ‘See you later’ when you are a complete stranger to them.
