I am irrationally bothered by....

jevs · Jul 31, 2016

People who drive in the overtaking lane when they're not overtaking.

Fake wood - this is a huge one.

Some people who just bother me for no reason I can put my finger on - and there are a few here.

Now I'm not coming back to the thread which no doubt will bother someone else

Slow walking people
people who drive under the speed limit for no reason and dont pull over to let people pass
Bono, Coldplay and Madonna
The holes in the story of Sleeping Beauty

People who throw garbage out their car window.

Parents that hit/smack their children as a way of establishing their dominance when children misbehave.

pocomom · Jul 31, 2016

People who post political type memes, or even memes or forwards in general- but don't actually fact check any of it.

Feet

The "Ironic" song by Alanis Morissette that isn't actually "ironic"

The fact that I can only see my typos after someone else has quoted my post.

This one happens to me too!

PollyannaMom · Jul 31, 2016

People who turn "right on red" when I still have a green arrow to turn left into the same spot.

Baggers at the grocery store who don't use the insulated bags for the cold stuff!

The chaos that ensues when DS has a bunch of kids over.

Commercials that are way louder than the show.

@jevs, Thanks, this was fun!

Me too. Can't stand the sight of them. I can get past it when I'm at the beach or poolside. But this whole flip-flop thing has got to stop. Especially for men! Cover your damn feet when you're in a restaurant. :crazy2:

Isn't it ironic... don't you think?

scrhsa · Jul 31, 2016

People (not at all blaming my husband or daughters) who can't remember where dishes/pots etc belong after living 12 yrs in a house where things haven't moved or changed.
"Tolerant" people who are more intolerant than the intolerant people they are ranting about
My cat who incessantly meows for me to stand there while she eats

CarolAnn856 · Jul 31, 2016

People who expect tolerance for their opinion that some people should be denied basic human rights.

From when my kids were little, Max and Ruby as well as Calliou.

Sagging pants.

DawnM · Jul 31, 2016

People who need to state the obvious as if it is some big revelation.

My teen who can't seem to understand that he needs a shower EVERY day.

cluvsdisney · Jul 31, 2016

People walking too close behind me. It drives DH crazy because I'll move over and stop to let them pass.

Disney Ella · Jul 31, 2016

People who leave their shopping carts/trolleys/whatever you call them in the middle of the aisle at the grocery store and then act annoyed when other people politely ask them to move.

People who allow their maids to write their DISboards posts.

All of the Kardashians

(But these definitely bother me, and I don't think it's irrational at all!)

Nope. It is called being unable to communicate therefore resorting to violence with someone who is completely defenseless.

Sadly it is a learned behavior. This means it is self-perpetuating from one generation to the next.

I have 2 children that are well behaved and respect authority figures. Not out of fear of physical harm that may come to them, but because we use words and set examples through our own behavior of what is acceptable conduct.

Conversely, I have family members with children the same age as ours who DO hit/smack there children when they misbehave and it continually yields no results. If anything, their conduct is getting WORSE as the years go by.

>>>edited to add<<<:
I'm am "old school" when it comes to many values, opinions. I don't believe in participation trophies, helicopter parenting, "special snowflake syndrome" as I call it, etc. This is just not one of them. Never will be.
