It's often the little things that tip us over the edge. Back pain remedy ending up on the bottom shelf. Bananas being both overripe and underripe... Whether the universe has conspired against someone or they simply have to deal with other people's stupidity, it only takes so much to ruin a perfectly fine day.
Disappointed and angry, people turn to the Internet. Here, they're posting photos of the things that drive them crazy, hoping that someone will share their pain. And who are we to let them down? Bored Panda has put together a list of pics to prove just how annoying everyday situations can get, so continue scrolling and upvote your (least) favorite entries.
And if you're into sadomasochism, check out our earlier list of mildly infuriating pictures as well.

Microsoft word often causes me to push slowly away from the desk and leave the office for a few minutes until my fury subsides
Unbelievable
While this is awful....human remains aren't allowed in personal checked luggage. Remains need to be carried on the plane and declared at security checkpoints. I had to look all this up when checking the legality of transporting some of my grandfather's ashes from the U.S. to Ireland. So while it's awful this happened to him, TSA doesn't expect ashes in checked baggage.
That should be reported. I used to work for TSA and we were absolutely forbidden to open urns containing the remains of someone's loved one. They could be x-rayed but NEVER opened.
Did they actually know what they were looking at. I think I would label this very clearly and probably keep it in carry-on rather than packing it with my laundry.
I wouldn't have left them in the luggage..I would have taken them as a carryon.
This is, of course, very unfortunate, but maybe it wasn't the best idea to pack something so valuable in checked baggage (if it is even allowed).
Which, apparently, it is not, according to Lizz Lor.

Don't check your beloved's mom's ashes. Take responsibility for your own failures.
How many examples do people need to learn NOT to ship anything via the airlines - that's what FEDEX is for.
FedEx'ing his mother's ashes? That's just so darn impersonal.

Nope, supposed to be in hand luggage and declared.

This is horrible! I had to fly back home with some of my dad's ashes and they didn't even really blink an eye at it....it was in an urn though, not sure if that makes a difference.
They had to check. If they wouldn't all smugglers would start using urns for drugs. Still they should close it properly but I can see why they looked.

I hope he was able to get them all together again. TSA are just nosy bitches.
I don't think some of the commenters understand what cremains (yes, that's the proper term and a fun portmanteau to boot! :)) look like when you receive them. They aren't typically in urns or even something anyone who wasn't very familiar would recognize. The container can vary from an unmarked cheap black plastic box to a plain cardboard shipping-type box--both with a with a plastic bag inside containing a grainy greyish substance that looks a lot like sand or tiny bits of rock. There might be a name label on it, but it's just a regular sticky label with a name typed on it. No more information. They would be very easy to mistake for something else, from filtration gravel used in aquarium filters to rocky beach sand, both of which would be something TSA would need to look into since something like that could be hiding drugs, a bomb, or parasites (in the beach sand) that could spread from country to country. Sounds like an honest accident that was sadly, very painful for the traveller.
What did they think it was, drugs? I once applied for a job with TSA and almost got hired. From stories I've heard, I wouldn't want to work with people like that.
I think I would have shipped them in a sealed and insured box or hand-carried onto the plane myself, but wtf a**holes
Were these in a bag or urn? If they were in a bag the air pressure could of easily caused the bag to expand and make a mess.
I'm not sure why people downvoted your comment so much, it actually makes some sense.

Someone should be fired for this. Of course, we all know that won't happen.
why would you pack your mother in a suitcase? you couldnt do a carry on? imagine if you lost the case.. yikes.
Oh hell no! I'd would be in jail because I would've went back there and kicked someones a*s.
Was the container labeled as remains? If not, then they will open it. If it is sealed and labeled, it can be xrayed and probably that is all. For anyone carrying remains, ask your funeral home for a certificate assuring contents and have it labeled on the container if possible. It is the best way. I agree that generally speaking the customs people in the USA are the worst and their general level of education is not that high so, do your best to prepare for the worst.
I would have raised such a stink over this! Maybe even reported it to a news network! There isnt any excuse for this!
You’d think that a notice. That it is human ashes might clue them in to have some respect! If we’re him, I’d have filed a suit and a huge complaint about their disrespect!
This is awful, but lesson for the future... Never, ever, EVER put anything you can't afford to lose or have damaged in checked baggage, period. It either goes in your carry-on or stays home. Ship it as fragile, secure cargo (courier, if necessary) if you desperately have to have it transported and can't carry it on.
While this is extremely sad, I would not put my mother’s ashes in my suitcase. I’d carry her on the plane. 😢
Isnt there laws about disturbing graves, where the urn is the grave?
How many times can I up vote this thing!! They are another useless organization that we allowed to be put in place.
That's ridiculous. And how many jerks smuggled drugs etc in an urn for this to take place?
why does one have their parents ashes in their luggage? bit disrespectful packing them with your toothbrush and gotch.
I'm pretty sure there are procedures for this, you don't just throw it in your bag and hope for the best.
I’m so very sorry for your loss and this horrible treatment you received
I’m so sorry you had to deal with this in addition to losing your mom! 😢
And they have a comeback of "It was just following the guidelines and rules of TSA inspections. But srsly sometimes they take it too far
I was traveling from Nassau Bahamas a few days ago when I first saw this. Today, I just got back home to Nassau and lo and behold, this thing is in my bag also.
Holy sh*t that is just so awful!! :( I hope you lodged a complaint. How horrible
Yet another addition to the long list of reasons to drive instead!
Please tell me you filed a complaint that is not acceptable at all.

It's Friday and that means its almost weekend so obviously, I'm in a very good mood. Just after 1 page, my very good mood has changed to annoyed. I'm gonna stop reading this because it will simply make very angry. There is just a lot of selfish, rude, inconsiderate and stupid people on earth.
I'm just laughing at the absurdity of some of these

Lol, so annoyed I couldn’t make it to page 2. Have a great day Pandas.
What I got from this is that people tend to suffer without speaking for themselves or doing something about it. Use your mouth, your hand, your horn... don't just b***h about it.

It's annoying when I comment on a picture on Bored Panda and it jumps me back to the first page of a 23-page post and you have to forward page by page because there is no option to jump to page 5 or 6 or 20 etc
I think people don’t have enough to worry about. Geeze get annoyed over things that matter in life
They forgot the woman (let's call her Sharon) that stands in line with 1 or 2 items while her 4 FRACKING KIDS come strolling up, each with an arm load of items to cut in front of you to check out with mom right before she get's to the register......
They should gather up all the litter bugs of the world & make them go live in a place only occupied by litterbugs. Maybe once they've spent a few months literally wading through trash every day & fighting off dog-sized rats, they might start to think about the consequences of their actions.
I have wanted a place to air my grievances for a long time most of these would be on my list. I have come to a conclusion about myself... I just don't like people
A lot of the things here are the fault of "weather", "the sun", etc and why complain on BP about them?

Having your mothers remains dashed all over your clothes is a first world problem. Huh. Alright then.
