Trivial things that annoy you part 479

People referring to 'suicide survivors'.

Very commonly I see it.

But suicide by its nature is not something you survive.

You can be a survivor of attempted suicide. Or a survivor of bereavement by suicide.

But no, not a suicide survivor.

Google it and you'll find many references to it, and even organisations set up including the term 'suicide survivors' in its name, but still doesn't make the term correct.

Bugs me a little.

Why does stuff happen at weekends when GP's are shut? I thought I was getting bitten by midges but I don't think it is. I woke up with 7 hive like things on my arm, there must be about 20 of them on my arm over the past few days, and as I was putting antihistamine cream on them 2 more clusters appeared on my leg. Am getting slightly panicky that it's all on my right arm and leg and my throat hurts. Think I'm freaking Mr Pumpkinseeds out.

That annoys me - passing remarks like that!

I did say I mumbled! I very much doubt they actually heard me. And they were pawing each other when there were children all around them.

Organisations, phone lines, and other help freely available for people with suicidal tendencies but none for those with homicidal ones.

people leaving their loud, aggressive dogs out in the garden where they can attack and harass passers by who they think are intruding.

Finding euroshopper 'burger bites' crisps in a shop (UK), realising how much you miss the long-forgotten burger bites from Ireland, which aren't available here, buying the fake burger bites, and then discovering they're a crap very poor imitation.

Stubborn people. I'm TA by pig-headedness.

When you peel hard boiled eggs, and half the white comes away with the shell. Very frustrating. On the other hand, a perfectly smooth egg where the shell comes off easily is very satisfying. The two balance out.

Probably been said, but girls who sit in the corner of nightclubs all nigh taking pics for social media t to look like theyre having fun. Not that I even want to get with em, but seeing it just takes me out of my party vibe and makes me question if this happinness is real .

Feeling viral.:( I feel fluey. My throat is really sore, I'm really achey and the spots on my right arm and leg are really itchy. I really want to sleep but I can't. Poor Mr Pumpkinseeds must be exhausted from me throwing myself around the bed last night, and not in a sexy way. Oh, I also stink of Vicks vapo rub. If I don't get some sleep I may go mad.

My 2 cents, for what it's worth, if someone is spending their time on a night out taking selfies of themselves 'having a great time', then they aren't having a great time. Also, I find people who take selfies narcisstic. The worst offenders are generally women close to or over 30, who are single and unattractive.

Short shorts being worn at the sight of the sun. Worst of all most of the people that wear them should NOT be wearing them due to the rolls of fat around their asses.

TA that at the wedding I was at yesterday the priest had to ask people not to 'engage in social media' during the ceremony. What planet are some people on?!

Constant noise - I'm going slightly mad.

OldNotWIse

People who bet on pain and suffering. Had a good facebook clearout yesterday getting rid of them all. Oh and I deleted someone who invited me to play candy crush saga. An equally meritable reason for unfriending. There'll be nobody left....:rolleyes:

OH getting up for work at 06:00. Thinking, well I'll make her a coffee and be back in bed for 6:15 and sleep for another hour. Problem is she leaves at 06:45 or 07:00 if she is late. So, in the interim I find myself trivially annoyed by her foostering, hairdrying, asking me if I have seen stuff, talking to the dog etc.... I can feel my annoyance turn to anger and this makes it harder to sleep so that by the time she goes at 07:00 I am actually fuming and cannot go back to sleep. I might as well have fúcking got up at 06:00 and stayed up and at least done something productive.

Honestly sometimes I think it's a ridiculous concept for couples to share a bedroom. By all means have a fun sack but people really need their own space!

PandaPoo

I completely ignore my husband in the morning before he leaves for work. He asks stupid questions, have you seen my shoes? And they're right beside him.

I don't even work, I just like sleeping

Menas

Worst question your OH can ask you is 'Are you asleep'.
"NOT ANY MORE I AM NOT!"

Herself gets up before me in the morning and has fierce trouble trying to convince me to get out of bed a while later, so thankfully her 'foostering' (what a word ONW) has no effect on me.

Not being able to get out of bed, now that's something that annoys me.

...and when they are holding it for you from a distance and you have to do that little run of gratitude so you dont delay then even though they have made a choice to stand there and hold it

I need fooster blockers. I think they're on prescription now :pac:

When your coming through the arrivals door at any airport in a steady stream of people, and the people just stop right in front of you (while walking through a narrow doorway) to get their bearings, or stop to look for their loved ones!!

Making that stupid "my lips are pouting and I am so surprised" face. Actually, they are next on my FB delete list. So that's people who bet on horses, people who invite me to play candy crush saga, people who post no campaign propaganda and now people who post trout pouts. There's nobody left except the OH and the mammy :P

I have said it before and I will say it again....online shopping is great, but I have so much stuff en route to me now but none of it has actually been delivered yet.
Am like a rabid dog waiting for the postman every morning.

All in discreet brown packaging of course


Actually I've never ordered anything like that online, does it come in discreet brown packaging?

I don't know. Anyone? Anyone?

I'll be annoyed over that now for the day, not knowing. I know who I could ask, but she'd probably leave me over the other side of her desk with a slap :pac:

What makes one person excited may be entirely different to what makes another excited. For me, it's lipstick, shoes and so on. I don't know what Trigger may be so enamoured with. As for discreet packaging, I would say, yes.
