What grinds my gears...

The neighbour's builder parked his van across my drive for most of the afternoon. Empty space outside the neighbour's house.

 

Due to the heavy rain and watching England, I let him off. I'll be out tomorrow if the inconsiderate @#@1 does it again.

This has happened to me too. I try to not let it bother me but confess to annoyance

Microwaves that still beep even though you've opened the door. Give me a break ffs, I'm trying my best...

Mine does that. 5 beeps on completion, even if you open the door. You have to press a button to shut it up. It is a fairly old one though.

I'd kill for that.

 

In my house, people open the microwave with 10 seconds left, then leave the door open.

 

Drives me fvcking nuts. I keep threatening to chuck it unless they shut the door.

 

One day I will.

Good god, leaving the door open with the little light on would drive me into a rage within hours.

Seriously, mate...I can be having the most incredible day, then I spot that.

 

Changes my mood instantly, absolutely infuriating.

 

Then everyone looks at me like I'm the weird one.

 

Things like that make me realise why it's always the step-father in murders lol

When you're filling a box in online, with say your postcode, and as soon as you start typing it highlights red and tells you its invalid.

 

Give me a chance to finish fvcking typing! Small thing, but drives me insane every time.

Or the box with previous typed entries pops up and covers it up completely.

On the subject of 'invalid' postcodes, I've always typed mine LE3 then a space, followed by the next 3 characters.

One online form kept rejecting it until I entered it without a space.

What is the correct way to enter your postcode - with or without a space? I need to know, we all need to know! It keeps me awake at night.

At my previous house, my next door neighbours family and friends often parked outside ours. They were not obstructing anything and it didn't bother me at all.

Then, on one rare occasion, a visitor to ours parked outside their house. After a few mins, they came out, walking around the car, peering through the windows ect.

When I asked them what the problem was, they came out with some crap about checking it hadn't been abandoned.

Just one example of their cvntish behaviour over the years.

Space. 100%

 

Don't let that shitty website tell you otherwise!

 

I autofill most of my details and it tells me my email is invalid because I skip the deets and it has a space at the end lol:mad:

This. Without a space is just plain wrong.

People bumping transfer threads that have been dormant for a month to get in their own shit pun based on the players name. 

 

"Any news on this?" bumps as well - this forum is full of people who seemingly monitor every single news source, if there's news, it'll get posted.

The van was parked across the drive, which is obstructing us entering or exciting in our car. And the ignorant git has done it again today. I've been out to have a word. Bloke seemed utterly oblivious that it was a problem, he should be aware now!
