Some things shouldn't ruin your day, but they still do. A stubbed toe. A spoon falling into your soup. A misleading internet ad. These aren't tragedies. They're small, stupid moments that don’t really matter, yet somehow feel big when they happen to us. So, to show that you're not alone in this, we’ve rounded up some of the most annoyingly relatable everyday struggles because sometimes, it’s comforting to know that everyone else is also one broken key away from losing it.

Preventing Others From Holding The Pole
Busy commute to work and this woman is leaning against the pole, on her phone, taking up as much room as possible preventing people from getting on the train while leaning on my hand the entire commute. She turned around and angrily stared at me like I was invading her personal space. The entitlement is simply incredible to witness.
I would have held on with both hands. One at the top of the back, right where they are leaning, and at the bottom just below their waistline. Make it as uncomfortable as possible.

Apartment Complex Filled Our Pool With Dirt… Then Raised The Rent
Filling pools in like this, typically happens when the complex's insurance company raises their rates because a pool is determined to be dangerous. Typically, they get declared that because the pool doesn't meet updated state or city safety regulations, like having child proof netting around the perimeter of the pool to prevent drownings.

Want To Buy Two Tickets, But Ticketmaster Has Other Ideas
2 is a pretty common number of tickets to want to buy. This is acompletely asinine requirement when the row only had three seats left in it.
"This is a completely asinine requirement when the row only had three seats left in it." TicketMaster: "Mission Accomplished"
I love it when you try and buy one ticket if you're wanting to go to the theatre by yourself and it tries to make you sit on the very edge because if you want a good seat near the middle of the stage, "you're leaving empty seats". F**k you, ticket sites.
IKR? People attending a movie alone have a right to a good view of the screen, too.
Load More Replies...The trick is to open a second window and start ‘buying’ the extra seat but not actually pay for it. The system will mark it as unavailable for 15mins or so to reserve it. During that time you can buy your two seats as there won’t be any other available seat shown.
I can't stand that. it's so freaking stupid. they'll let you buy one ticket and leave 3 but can't buy 3 and leave one.
Wouldn't it be great if promoters realised that TicketMaster was robbing them blind, and went back to doing their own bookings.
Try booking your plane seats with TUI. Can book middle and window but not middle and aisle as that leaves a single seat unavailable. Utter bollox.

Closed Road. Should Be A 10 Minute Drive
I'm using a rented car for a drone photography centered roadtrip, and got fucked by the agency who capped my car to 2000 km. And the weather here is pretty bad. So I can't move a lot, and can't do anything when there's rain. Was kind a counting on going there.
Only Had Two Sips
Alright I’m Done Being Nice
My nightmare neighbors — the ones who constantly park in front of my driveway, take up all the street parking in front of my house, using trash cans to save their parking spots, and even threatened to catch my cat ( and do who knows what to it ) because they claim it’s been pooping in their yard. They couldn’t even describe the cat, and there are at least five different cats roaming the neighborhood.
This past weekend, they took things to a new level and installed these obnoxiously bright floodlights — one in the front yard and another in the back — with the back one aimed directly into my yard. I’ve owned this home for about 9 months now; they’ve been renting here for over 15 years and act like they own the block.
I’ve officially had it with their inconsiderate, passive-aggressive behavior. So, I’m here for suggestions. Hit me with your pettiest, most vile (but legal) ideas to make them realize I’m not the one to mess with. Here’s a pic of the lights for reference.
Simple, you file a nuisance complaint with the city code enforcement. There's no way that those lights are up to code.

Season or oil your pan you heretic. This looks like you have one of those hybrid cast iron pans... and unless you actually season it, anything you cook in it is going to stick.
