Things That Make You Irrationally Angry
Replies

Parents who use baby talk to speak to their kids. Actually anybody who speaks to kids in a cartoon/baby voice makes me want to bash their head in.
Parents who cannot discipline their kids in communal areas. No, it's not cute that your child just kicked me. Go away.0 -
The phrase 'first world problems' when it's applied to things that actually exist in the third world. My phone run out of battery is not a first world problem. People in the third world have phones too.
Goes for most other stuff in the world as well. People don't live in trees over there!0 -

The irrational part is that I am really not that OCD anywhere else in life, so I'm not sure why I get that angry over this.
Haha
I would drive you crazy because I intentionally mix up the silverware because I'm convinced it gets cleaner that way. Forks hanging out with forks is too risky because they fit together and might not get as clean. Spoons are even riskier because, well, spooning. 
I put one piece of silverware into the dishwasher at a time, distributing one piece per slot as I go. I will move stuff around if necessary.
I mix up my silverware for the same reason. But am completely OCD about how my dishwasher is loaded. Drives me nuts when anyone else just throws in cups and plates haphazardly, and I find myself having to rearrange everything to maximize space.1 -
Rationally, or irrationally (for you to decide, haha) I get mad about these things:
* When my husband stacks a plate in the sink and it still has food on it!
* People that chew with their mouths open
* People that drive by my house blaring their horrible music at ANY time of day
* Thistles and general weeds growing in my garden (and having to pull every last one)0 -
People who are so busy talking on their cellphones in the grocery store that they pay no attention to their children.0

Women on dating sites who flip off the camera in the profile pics, wear a shirt that says “Boss *kitten*” and have neck tatoos of their ex's name, yet demand a “nice guy”
Politicians who seek second terms
Newscasters who refer to every musket as a “Fully automatic assault weapon.”
Gang member who only get face tats so they will qualify for SSI as unemployable.
People who insist that smoking a weed grown by an high school dropout with multiple pesticides and chemical fertilizers will cure cancer.
People who put their non-rational religious views on me as a moral judgement ie. Vegans, anti-gmo freaks, cage free egg advocates, Prius owners...etc.2 -
I have OCD so a lot of things make me irrationally angry but here is a few:
*People who are late all the time
*Not putting things back where they are suppose to go
*Smacking noises when people eat (especially my MIL)
*Not taking your plate to the sink when your done eating, especially when your going right past it
*Wearing shoes in the house
*Tooth paste in sink and/or mirror0 -

People who can't do no wrong! Can't take responsibility for it, or it wasn't their kid or them. That really Fuc&in pisses me off!0

Children who can walk and talk sucking on a pacifier! I want to grab it out of their mouths and throw it away! I tell them, "You don't need that dirty thing in your mouth...". They stare, wide eyed, sucking away.0

Emotional retards0

Spaghetti hoops that are broken when they come out the tin0

Adults who can't spell/spell like children. It's TONIGHT....NOT tonite. Drives me insane!1

People who cut their nails in public places - that s**t is disgusting. Also, people who suck their teeth after eating to get the crap stuck in their teeth - EW!
Those people really irk the crap out of me.0 -

I couldn't stand it!!!!! My son could talk and still had that freaking pacifier! I told him constantly to take it out of his mouth if he wanted to talk to me. SO glad that thing is gone. WILL NOT do that again...
People that don't use the turning lane, or only pull into half of it!

Lately, blatant stupidity has been setting me off like a firecracker.

I got another one. At work our restrooms have 3 stalls. If I'm the only one in there, I go to one of the end stalls like any decent human being would. Then someone else will come in...and go to the middle stall instead of the one on the other end. Why?! The only reason to use the middle stall is if there is someone in both of the others already. Period.0

When the uber driver calls you and asks where you are. I AM WHERE I ASKED YOU TO PICK ME UP ARE YOU BRAIN DEAD...actually, I am a nice person but that really does drive me nuts.
Also people who do not show any considerations for their surroundings - e.g. stopping dead in the street, standing in front of you when you are looking at a shelf in the store, walking 4 abreast on the pavement etc.
When you are in an empty gym and someone comes and stands next to you for no reason e.g. using the mat next to yours, using the next xtrainer, lifting weights right next to you when there is plenty of mirror space and equipment.
Oh and added to that - when the gym instructors at my gym don't take the register so loads of people sneak into body attack and you then can't move without having to shove other people out of the way.
Maybe the last three are not so irrational though.

People who leave lights on or doors open in a room that they are not occupying anymore0

Any customer that orders a Venti frappuccino. I don't understand how anyone can sit and sip a 600 calorie beverage, equal to the number of calories I burn while working an 8 hour shift where I take over 10,000 steps.0

oh god yes! i turn the lights off in the meeting rooms at work once we are done and sometimes people are like "errr...why bother?"0 -

We had automatic light switches installed in our salesmen's offices because they would never turn their lights off.0 -
I don't know if Specs liquor is a national chain or not but they have a commercial with people dancing crummy choreography and it pisses me off. Like a lot, I hardly understand why. Maybe it's because it's so crappy and someone got paid to make that thing. Or maybe because it horrible and always on.0

Agreed!!! My thoughts are the middle stall should have an automatic lock when a stall on the other end is available. Don't give them the middle stall option in that circumstance!

my list of pet peeves is long and ever changing....
today it is:
home care nurses who can't get it through their heads that they need to call ME to schedule an appointment for my grandfather and not HIM - who will agree to ANYTHING at ANY TIME but not mean it or remember it at ALL
drivers who are more interested in whats in the seat next to (or behind them, or on the floor, or on their phone) than you know, driving.
teenagers. pretty much just in general.

My partner at work drinks one of these every day for breakfast. Lunch is a 2 liter of RC Cola, 2 cans of Pringles and a burger or two. I wish I was 6"9" and 295 so I could eat like that.0
