At present, those who think that wearing a mask below their nose is acceptable.

Aepgirl Thu 10-Jun-21 11:33:07

The word ‘wow’ .

Neighbours having barbecues everyday with the smell filling our house?

grandtanteJE65 Thu 10-Jun-21 11:34:09

People who pee in the street. Offenders are usually male, but I have seen women do it too.

jangeo44 Thu 10-Jun-21 11:37:29

People who only ever talk about themselves

Moggycuddler Thu 10-Jun-21 11:38:24

People calling me hun.

Young women who talk as if they have laryngitis.

Harmonypuss Thu 10-Jun-21 11:42:47

Lots of the above.

Totaldogsbody Thu 10-Jun-21 11:47:07

People who pick up their dogs poo and then just drop it along the way or hang it from a tree.

People leaving their wheeliebins in the street or permanently at the end of their drive in the street.

Back ground music on the TV

Brownowl564 Thu 10-Jun-21 11:51:43

Frenchie people who have to bring politics into everything and hate that people have a different view

On films and TV, when two characters are talking in a car, and the driver turns to address the passenger - sometimes for several seconds - my anxiety levels soar, fearing a crash is imminent.

My remote control that has a mind of it's own, especially when I sit on it!

knspol Thu 10-Jun-21 12:09:56

Selfishness.

Margliz2912 Thu 10-Jun-21 12:12:57

Could give you a long list as it seems to get longer the older I get. At the moment it is being patronised by people. For example I had a dental appointment this morning but was rung yesterday to ask if I had any COVID symptoms & if so not to attend. If I had any symptoms I wouldn’t attend. This afternoon I am giving blood & have had a stream of messages advising me not to attend if I’ve got any symptoms. I am a recently retired district nurse with a reasonable amount of intelligence.

The phrase "you guys". The last time I looked, I was female!

Notsooldat75 Thu 10-Jun-21 12:27:09

People who stay every sentence with the word “so”
And Liars

When others play music so loud in their houses or cars thinking everyone near or far will enjoy it too!

Eating with your mouth open, really makes me nauseous to see it
