People Share The Random Things That Don’t Bother Others But Ruin Their Mood (38 Examples)
Everyone is different, and we all have our own unique quirks and idiosyncrasies that make us who we are. There are some of us, though, who get inordinately irked by things the vast majority don’t have any problem with.
Someone asked the internet, “What’s a completely normal or minor thing that irrationally gets under your skin, but most people don’t seem bothered by it?” and the community didn’t hold back. Why, however, are some folks so sensitive? Let’s dive right in!

Music so loud in a restaurant that you can’t hold a conversation.
BeesEelsAndPups 5 months ago
The worst are coffee shops that feel like they need to have live music playing. I don't want to hear a singer-songwriter moan at 8:00. I just want to drink my coffee and have a quite conversation with my friend.

I went into a very popular sub joint, was well recommended. I went in and it was so loud, I couldn't stand it just trying to look at the menu up on the board, it was so loud in there, I just turned around and left. There was no reason for the music to be so loud in a take-out joint.

When I attend a rock festival or a sporting event I don't complain about the sound level, but a restaurant can get noisy what with all the patrons chatting, dishes clattering, etc. Loud music simply makes it unbearable.

I'm sure there's a purpose for it, but I just can't figure it out. In bars it makes sense. It forces you to get physically close to talk, which helps for hookups

So that you wont stay too long and they can circle more customers, specially if you have a busy night with the resto booked. In some restos here if you book your table they may only give you 2 hours to eat before you have to leave. So its basically just to get more people in and get more money.

I went to brunch with my mom not too long ago. She raved about this place. I walked in and immediately wanted to walk out. The food was great but I will never step foot in that place again. The music was so incredibly loud I had to talk louder than normal. Then to make it worse it was packed so there were a ton of people who were talking loud trying to be heard. The place had no kind of sound dampening at all. It was by far my worst dining experience

Speakerphone in public.
Rick Murray 5 months ago
It's usually as bad for the recipient because all that fancy noise cancelling tech doesn't really work when you hold a phone flat and shout at it.
Trophy Husband 5 months ago
This one depends. If I'm in a crowd I don't use my phone at all. Or if I'm in a quiet place, obviously no phones in the library. But if I'm outdoors, far enough away from people that I won't bother them, I will do speaker phone and stove putting the phone up to my ear. I have two reasons for this, one is I'm a bit hard of hearing and the speaker is easier for me, it avoids a lot of " what did you say ". And second, the phone can get very hot against my face since I live in Florida. So if it's bothering others, I avoid the phone. But if I'm not going to bother anyone else, I will definitely use speakerphone at all times.

I was in a medical clinic, and the guy next to me is listening to some video sans ear buds on his phone. I explained that the noise was bothering me and to use ear buds. He looked at me like I was an alien. Sorry guy, didn't want to play this card, but I'm going to bring this to the staff's attention.

Tabitha 5 months ago (edited)
Or can’t stop trying to talk to you so loudly that you can’t hear the TV, and miss all the good stuff you were looking forward to seeing and hearing on the program. It’s the exact reason why I stopped going to the movies, going shopping, going on vacation, you name it, with friends years ago. I want to see the film. Catching up with each other can happen before and after, NOT during! I want to relax and catch up on my sleep, not go out clubbing every night, trying to hook up, then being catatonic and want to just sit by the pool the next day when I want to go out and actually see the place we’re staying. I need to get such and such at the store, not wander around the mall or the rest of the store, especially when I have to be somewhere later on, or there’s something specific I want to get and I know they’re selling out fast and I need to run to that department RIGHT NOW, not wander the aisles taking my time. While I have gone places with friends and had a wonderful time, the times that weren’t wonderful just put the kibosh on my having much, if any, confidence that doing stuff with friends will turn out well. When I have gone places by myself, I always have a good time. The only dampers on that are when things outside my control ruin it, like bad weather, wars breaking out, or natural disasters (you get my drift).

Science Nerd 5 months ago
It is very annoying when people insist on talking in the Teams meeting when I want to concentrate on something else.
Some people’s brains are wired to process sensory input like sound, touch, or smell more intensely. This can make everyday stimuli (chewing, pen clicking, humming) feel unbearable. In extreme cases, this is known as misophonia, a condition where specific sounds trigger emotional or physiological responses like anger or panic. To someone with heightened sensitivity, what others call “background noise” feels like an alarm bell going off.
Certain behaviors (like interrupting, humblebragging, or repeating stories) act like “social allergens.” You might tolerate them at first, but over time, they become increasingly irritating. This can be worse when you can’t “tune out” the behavior or aren't able to habituate (get used to) it the way others do. So, while you might not notice your co-worker’s constant throat clearing, someone else is barely resisting the urge to explode.

I know two off the top of my head: "Wasn't That a Party" by The Irish Rovers, an Irish-Canadian band, (the song mentions a drunken trio stealing a cop car), then "Bud the Spud" by Stompin Tom Connors (the song is about a potato truck driver from PEI who has the cops annoyed at him)
Emotional bandwidth shrinks under stress. When we’re tired, anxious, or overwhelmed, our brains perceive even neutral stimuli as threatening or irritating. Something you’d normally ignore (like a foot tapping or someone breathing too loudly) can feel like an attack. It's not about the act itself, but the state of mind of the person reacting. Think of it like an emotional splinter: tiny, but painful under pressure.
People who score high on conscientiousness often have a strong preference for order and routine, which makes unpredictable or chaotic behavior irritating. Those with neuroticism may feel more emotionally reactive in general. Plus, people who value personal space or quiet time can feel overwhelmed by those who are loud, tactile, or overly expressive—behaviors others may see as totally normal or even friendly.

There is no reason why getting up early and going to bed early is better than getting up late and going to bed late: you get the same amount of hours and can do the same amount of things.

What's considered "normal" varies widely between cultures and families. For example, direct eye contact is respectful in the U.S. but can be seen as aggressive in some Asian cultures. Someone raised to value modesty might find confident self-promotion off-putting, while others see it as self-assured. These ingrained standards shape how we interpret “everyday” behavior, so what’s bizarre in one culture might be commonplace in another.
Annoyance often builds like pressure in a soda bottle. Someone might tolerate a small irritant once or twice, but after five, ten, or fifty times, their patience runs out. This “stacking” effect can be subtle; a squeaky shoe might go unnoticed on Monday but drive someone up the wall by Friday. The irritation isn’t about the event, it’s about how many times it’s happened, and whatever else they’re dealing with.

People often rely on “unwritten rules” of behavior, like not talking on speakerphone in public, or leaving personal space in line. When someone breaks these social scripts, it causes discomfort. Even if the action is harmless, it feels like a disruption of the social contract. The tension comes not from what’s being done, but how off-script it feels.
Finally, people often don’t realize how their behavior is being received, or how it lands in different contexts. That friend who monologues without listening may not realize it’s draining. Or the coworker who hums while working may not notice others struggling to concentrate. The mismatch between intention and impact leads to friction, even when no one’s being malicious.

And the parents, when they do show up, not apologizing to the establishment and other patrons, then not doing a d**n thing about their kids’ bad behavior. My parents were old school. We were taught how to behave in public. We didn’t run around like feral animals. We didn’t touch someone else’s stuff, and we certainly didn’t think we were entitled to have it. Our parents were mortified if we acted up in public, because it reflected badly on them. Now I don’t mean they had us acting like robots, we were allowed to be children when we were children. I just mean, when we were in stores, theatres, restaurants, offices, or other public places, we didn’t act like we were raised by spoiled brat chimpanzees, and we always had at least one of our parents with us at all times, because back then kids went missing in places like that if there weren’t responsible adults around.

My ex genuinely HATED people who enforced leash laws. He threw a hissy fit when I refused to automatically hate a random woman with him, and I spent far too much time over those few horrendous years trying to give examples about why it is not only considerate, but simply courteous, to keep your dog in your control, whether there are laws or not. He took it EXTREMELY personally when someone didn't want his dog to come up to them or their dog. Then again, he took everything personally, when someone told him something he didn't want to do, and enjoyed annoying people. One of the first times I saw his cowardice, though, was when a guy, who was in a group of guys, told him to get his dog down, because the dog was smashing some flowerbox flowers on the sidewalk (we were watching a parade and standing on the edges that were fit for humans, but not dogs). He didn't say a word in response, got down, and we walked off. He never said a word, and silently took it out on me later.

I constantly tried to explain people's fears, allergies, that maybe THEIR dog is not social or has reactions to unpredictable behaviors, etc etc etc. I beat my head on the wall trying to be patient and give him the benefit of SO MUCH DOUBT, about a lot of things that I finally admitted to myself he NEVER needed explained. I had NO idea, for far too long, how he intentionally played stupid and acted genuinely ignorant about what I considered to be basic human decency. Now I know he's not human, it all makes more sense, and was much easier to admit things to myself. But I digress.

People with 0 spatial awareness. I became more cognizant of this during the pandemic, but some people really seem to walk around as if they have universal right of way and that no one else's personal space should be respected. Stopping in the middle of a busy walkway to stare at a wall. Walking slowly in the middle of the sidewalk and not giving way to someone walking or running by. D**n near running me over with their shopping cart when exiting an aisle instead of waiting 1 second for me to pass by. Breathing down my neck while waiting in line. Nearly stepping on my toes while I'm sitting on a bench even though there's plenty of space to give me breathing room. Its not just the egregious violations of personal space that gets me, but its as if some people arent even aware of or respect the people around them. Drives me nuts.

The problem, here in France, is that the first three days are not paid even if a doctor signs you off. It's to discourage frivolous "oh my díck hurts (coincidentally it's the cup final today)" type of things, but three days is about €70 net per day or €210ish. Minimum wage workers *will* feel that, so they drag themselves into work and spread the plague due in no small part to their total inability to cover their mouths when they attempt to toss their uvula across the room.

Now, people's online comments are too often invalidated not because of what they said, but because of little mistakes that don't actually affect the readability of their comment.

Why you want to remove the seal from your food container after you open it...keeping the seal after the product has been opened can lead to a higher risk for contamination from continual touching, according to Tetro, who recommends removing the seal as soon as you open the product. If you must leave it on for some reason (ahem, can’t admit defeat), he advises washing your hands before touching it. But your best bet it to just accept that seals were meant to be broken…and discarded.

Especially the ones that dump them in the handicapped spaces. So many times I have seen handicapped people have to stop,nget out of their car, move 2 or 3 carts just so they can park. I do try and help if I am close enough.

Forcing interactions with children. "Your uncle can help you", "Ask your uncle", "You should hold the baby and entertain it"... I'm not far away from telling my family that I don't care at all about cro.tch goblins, related or not. Edit: Also b******t censoring on normal words on websites with a f*****g stick up ther a*s like BP

Willful ignorance. When someone doesn't know something and is too lazy to spend a couple minutes learning even a little about it before they continue to spew their stupidity. There is a lot I don't know, but if someone is speaking to me about it or it's applicable to my life in any way I'll at least learn the basics...

Having your phone's notifications repeatedly go off in public spaces. I'm talking library, bus, waiting room. Hardly anybody else is bothered by that musical tone. Even wearing NC headphones won't block the sound

People who do not answer to hello, dirty dishes ON TOP of the empty dishwasher instead of in it, people who drive so close behind you that you can see the white in their eyes, people you see the first time speaking informal to you, easy opening packages wich are only opening of you use a machete, the vegetables in my neighbors garden looking much better than mine and all he does is ignoring them. The list is endless 😩

People who leave empty packets/jars/boxes/bottles in cupboards. You think you've got something, you take it out of the cupboard and guess what, it's empty. My hubby does this and when I asked him why he said that he put the empties back in the cupboard so that I know we haven't got it. NO. If it's not there at all then I know we haven't got it.
