People on here who spend all week saying how 'bad' they've been and that they have eaten crap then lose loads of weight!!! Pisses me off INSTANTLY...0

a lot of things irritate me and I don't find any of them irrational.
stupid people. fake people. people who drive like morons. people who go to restaurants as a couple and then sit there staring at their phones the whole time. anyone who utters the acronyms OMG, WTF, YOLO or 'hashtag (insert something stupid here)' in a conversation...#hashtagprovesyou'reamoron. the bacon craze. vanity license plates - because everyone really needs to know you're 2HOT2HNDL or just essentially narcissistic, self-absorbed and oh so clever. close talkers. quiet talkers. loud, obnoxious people... especially women who've had too much to drink. rap music. the fact that 98% of recent hip-hop songs have some guys rhythmically yelling 'hey.. hey' over and over in the background. the fact that Disney stopped being original 15 years ago and that Frozen is one of the worst movies they've ever made and people eat it for breakfast... 'let it go' people, you're being led by the media. the word selfie. having to break apart my ice cubes to get them into my water bottle. phone trees. the IRS. people who stare. people who think you want their unsolicited advice at the gym. people who use the circuit training room to sit on the machines and text. people who tell me, you have such a pretty face... if you'd just lose that weight. stick figure families on the back of cars. religious bumper stickers. religious people who tell me I'm a blasphemer and need to find god (yes, this has actually happened). people who mistreat animals. sometimes people in general. useless meetings. women who bash all men because they had one bad experience. commercials that make men look stupid (which is the bulk of them...especially on women's channels). Broncos fans. bad graphic design work. black friday. media-driven holidays. people who never take initiative. complainers. drama queens. bullying. and pretty much anyone who can't mind their own business.
Thank you saved me typing it. Apart from Broncos I don't know any so I can't comment.

This seems to be more of a male thing, than a female thing; it's disgusting. Being a human lawn sprinkler system & spitting lugees everywhere. If no one wants to see you put snot, into your mouth; after picking your nose/you really believe that we want to see snot; coming out of your mouth? I do understand having to spit stuff out, although I don't decorate my sink's mirror, wall and/or counter; when I spit out my mouthwash either. At least be discrete about it & have some couth about yourself!0

I tried to come up with something good for this, and I realized that most everything that kicks my trigger is rather rational... for me.
But lately, mine has been shopping. I'm about sick of the catering to homogeneity. No, I don't have an Apple or an Android phone, and so the fact that ya'll refuse to support Microsoft means that I can't patronize your app, which you insist on being used than actually doing your job in the store. I ran into this at 3 stores in 2 weeks! Oh, well, you can use our app - no, I can't. And everything in your store is Samsung or Apple. So don't try to sell me an alternative.
*rawr* I know I'm in the minority but that doesn't mean I don't exist. Kinda like my non-use of Facebook... I don't hear from friends for months, if ever, because I'm not on there. And when I do, all I hear about is FB drama. *ack*0 -
The school systems. I could go on with a tyranny of problems they have and my two kids have endured through. The one that bothers me the most is my daughter, who switches between my home and her mom's home three times a week. So, the school will only notify her mom. But wonder why she didn't do something when she was at my house.0

I had FB once... all the people i lost touch with posted cute little quotes and funny videos and wanted help with their silly little games. There were no posts about what was happening in their life or birthday wishes or any of that. So, I removed myself from it.
And along those lines I really hate it when sites/apps want you to 'sign in' using your FB account. ggrr... I don't have one. I don't want one. Get over it.0 -

FFFFAAAARRRRRKKKKKKKK!!!! This to the millionth degree. You Philly drivers, coming into Jersey and moseying down the left lane of the AC Expressway doing the speed limit. Don't you know I have places to be?!?!?!?! I WILL F'ING DESTROY YOU AND YOUR WHOLE F'ING FAMILY.
*Yeah, I hate that, too.
Stupid auto-correct, amirite?

Right!! I had a (ex-)friend whose 19 yr old son died in a car accident. She then put on Facebook how her uncle, who owns a funeral home, donated the entire funeral. Then she set up a Go Fund Me account, benifiting herself, to pay for ????? WTF? You to make money on his death?0 -

I gotta agree on this... a lot of times people make WAY more than what they actually need and it's for things like giving family members money after someone dies or surgeries for animals.

People who misuse the word "seen". The past tense of "see" is "saw". If you add "have" before "seen", you can be right, too.
Examples:
I've seen the first two Hobbit movies and am worried to see the third.
Have you seen my pants? I could swear I saw them here last night.
"I seen that" is never okay. Ever.0 -
People who back into parking spaces.
You probably drive a very small car! I personally drive a large truck out of necessity and unless I back in, I'm going to have to do a 20 point turn to get into that space that was made for a Smart Car. If I back in, my turning radius is greatly improved, and I can usually do it with ease.
What pisses me off, is when I go to back into a space, (With my signal light on) and people aren't smart enough to realize this and pull right behind me so I have to wait for them to back up or they actually pull into the space.
I am not here to criticize or tell you your wrong for getting pissed off about people that back in, just trying to educate you as to why some people choose to back in. If it's a longer vehicle, 9 times out of 10 it's easier, and takes a lot less time.0 -

people eating with their mouths open near me makes me murderous. I have to leave if I hear it. or if someone is eating near me, like next to me, and I can hear it. I'll go in another room or something.
I'm mad even thinking about it.

My co-worker does this. She sniffles repeatedly for several minutes and you can tell there's nothing to sniff, it's dry sounding. I know one day I'm going to lose it and scream, "GO BLOW YOUR NOSE!" I already asked her once if she needs tissues and gave her a box but she never uses them. LoL..she's at it right now!0 -
people that post the abused dogs/kids pics in my facebook feed, I delete everyone of one of those B's !!!! I know it is out there , but damn I do not want to see it, it is too sad. : (0

When people spit on the ground.
They don't even have to do that snorting, loogie-like noise, just regular old spitting. I think it's absolutely disgusting and it makes me assume they're scum of the earth.0 -
This is so none of my business, but it REALLY pisses me off when I come in to work each morning and the 400 lb 5 ft 2 in tall girl at the front desk, who just had a heart attack, is eating a McDonalds Egg McMuffin stuffed with the accompanying hash brown and drinking a large Coke. I want to punch her in the head. None. Of. My. Business. Whyyyyy do I care? Ugh!0

People who make me repeat myself - I f@ck*ng hate having to say something a dozen times. Especially to adults.0

When I'm stuck behind a slow driver and can't pass because drivers coming the other way, that's fine. But when I get in the other lane to pass said slow driver, who suddenly speeds up to prevent me from passing... dude???0

Dinner table nose blowers
Blech!
And grocery store checkout kids that just throw my precious groceries in bags with no order.... Cringe!!!
Yes and yes! We often bring an insulated cold bag with us. When our dry oatmeal ends up in there and the cottage cheese and frozen fish are in a regular grocery sack, I just have to shake head...0 -

I have a large truck and you do this to me, plan on waiting to pull behind me, I will let you run off the road before you merge in front of me. I guarantee you wouldn't jump in line in front of me if we were standing in a line! I Promise!
I digress! vent over.

Other folks have already mentioned eating noises, but I'm just going to say all manner of mouth generated sounds that are not speech, laughter, singing, etc. related.
Audible gum chewing - makes me feel ill
Talking with food in one's mouth. There are people in my husband's family who take this to the extreme. They'll be talking with food in the mouth, then just when I think they might finish swallowing that food, they pause mid sentence to grab another forkfull and reload. Ugh... a good way to limit my intake at the dinner table.
And the somewhat related biting of nails. OK, I get that this is a phase kids go through, but it is so revolting when an adult does this!0 -
People that won't do their job correctly because they are lazy. I can't get away with that at my job (although some people do, grrrrrr!!), you shouldn't either. Yes, I know it will take you an extra 30 seconds now, but do it right, the first time, and it will save you time in the end!0

Most of mine are driving or parking related, many have been mentioned. The twits that like to zip up the bus lane or merge lane then rip in front of you. People parking in no park zones. WORSE in disabled stalls without the damn card (and who then excuse their behavior when I smash their windows out with my cane ** not really but I do tap and give them *kitten* or leave them a note** I live in a town jam packed with redneck *kitten* who are just disrespectful douchecanoes behind the wheel.
AND ppl dragging their feet. PICK UP YER DAMN FEET.
People rude to wait staff.
Whistling in public.
Bad kids/bad parenting.
ok so apparently I hate the world. NEXT

^^^ jeez brother, road rage much? The last thing they need to let you do is drive a large truck.
Me: people that DON'T use the full merge lane piss me off. It's inefficient. Merge at the merge point, dammit! That's why it's known as the M-E-R-G-E P-O-I-N-T. Then once you're there, quickly, smoothly, and respectfully take turns forming a single line. It's so easy. And painless. It truly works better this way.
Generally speaking, there are two common characteristics of things that piss me off:
1. Inefficiency
2. Lack of awareness/consideration of others ... like the OP's example of the person blocking his path without knowing (or caring), like people who park their grocery carts in the middle of the aisle while they shop (I find this maddening), people who park so crooked they make the space(s) next to them unusable (c'mon, you MUST know you're screwing someone else, right!!??), people who leave messes in the bathroom, microwave, etc, leave empty coffee pots on the burner, etc.
People just suck. Road rage dude scares me. I need to be in charge of the world.0 -
- Bad drivers (I won't elaborate on this because I could rage for hours & nobody wants to read that)
- People who mess up towels - my brother will dry his hands and leave the towel (which was hanging nicely) in a ball on top of the rack. While I appreciate that he's washing his hands, why does he need to crunch up the towel like that? Now it won't dry.
- People who poop in the bathroom on the main floor of my house. It's right beside my kitchen. Now my kitchen smells like your ****. Can't you just use the upstairs bathroom for that?
- Repetitive bodily functions. One or two sneezes/burps/coughs are fine. When you start sneezing more than 3 times I start to hate you a little more with each sneeze. One lady at work has coughing fits several times a day. She claims she "swallowed wrong". You choke on your food/drink 5 or 6 times a day?! Her doctor even offered her a puffer and she declined it. So because you think the puffer "tastes gross" I have to listen to you hack all day? She also coughs into her hand, then proceeds to touch everything.0 -
When my dad tells stories at the dinner table, he gets right to the pivotal part and shovels food into his mouth... So we have to wait until he swallows to hear the rest. RAWR. I get so mad when anyone does this.0

Oh yes, totally this too! People who just stop in doorways or in the middle of an aisle/hall without being aware that they're in the way drive me crazy.
