    Post Random Little Annoyances

    I call these bugbears, but apparently I googled Bugbears and came up with some hideous monstrosity.

    Do you ever get annoyed by something that you know isn't that terribly annoying, yet you can't help but go 'ugh, why!' about?

    My housemates, be it during or after cooking food on the hob, insist on leaving the handles facing outwards, towards you. Now not only is that an awful idea if you have small children around, Its annoying for me too. I'm not the most 'accurate' walker ever, and I've on more than one occasion knocked into the handles of the pots. It gets even worse because the light switch is away from the oven, so if I get in during an evening I have to fumble my way through kitchen, hoping I avoid catching a handle.

    It's very very minor. But I keep getting bothered by it!

    People walking slow is another. Like, if a crowded pavement, and people are either walking very slowly or worse, stopping in the middle and chatting with their friends. Move aside! Make space! Ugh.

    Have an impromptu councelling session and let it all out. What minor things really bug you?

    When my food comes out of the microwave cold as smurf but the bowl or plate is hot as hell.

    Singing from certain people or humming, it just gets on my nerves for some reason. That's the main one right now

    Ugh, this so much this. First world problems. Or when my purifier is leaky and makes a dripping noise.

    I believe the subtitle for the book of Life is Random Little Annoyances.

    Ball sweat.

    Yeah, I hate it when it is hot out and the ball for a sports game gets someone's sweat on it.

    If I had a nickel for every time I heard that one.

    I'd have about 20 cents.

    see when I think of ball sweat I'm thinking of if you shine a light into my trousers it's like a lava lamp.

    Our bedsheets were given to us a long time ago and while they work alright, they're actually a bit too small, so sometimes the corners will come undone. I hate that way more than I should.
