We’re meant to appreciate the little things in life, but it gets very challenging to do so when they mostly consist of mildly infuriating daily inconveniences. You know, those like stubbing your toe, getting an eyelash stuck in your eye, or buying a dozen cracked eggs because you forgot to check them in the store. In the grand scheme of things, these trifles shouldn’t matter that much, but oh boy, can they get under the skin. 

People online have been sharing many such minor inconveniences that tested their patience, which our Bored Panda team compiled in the list below. It’s all just a scroll away—but be warned—you risk ruining your mood just by looking at them.

9 Of 10 RSVP’d Children/Families “No Call No Showed” To My Daughter's 5th Birthday Party

Cupcakes with pink frosting and number 5 decorations displayed on a stand, mildly infuriating design flaw visible.

Parents and future parents, if you RSVP to a child’s party. Show up. If you cannot, communicate that you are unable to make it.
Being asked for an hour straight, “When are my friends showing up?” “Oh, there’s a white car! Is my friend in there??”
IT'S HEARTBREAKING.

I have seen sad stories like this before, and I never thought it could happen to us. It did. It’s horrible. I just ask that anyone reading this will remember this thread, and be better!!
Fortunately, our adult friends at least made an appearance, but none of her preschool classmates came that RSVP they would be.
9 of the 10 parents didn’t even let us know they couldn’t make it!

She was surrounded by adults who love her, and everyone was aware of what went wrong so she was smothered with love and affection to try and replace any memories of friends not showing up with that of the adults in her life appreciating and loving her!

Yeah, I can't imagine that 90% of the adults in the this sample could be so cruel. I remember my sister hosted her own party when she was maybe 11. It wasn't a birthday party, but she saved allowance for a year, planned the whole thing, purchased decorations, food, and tiny little gifts for everyone. Gave out pretty invitations and not one kid showed up. It wasn't a birthday party, so not quite as bad as OP, but she was pretty heart broken.

My daughter had this happen when she was 6. We had moved to southern Arkansas and I was later told by a parent that my child was "Satan's child" not because she was badly behaved or anything, but because she was born on Halloween. Also, the people who lived there called us "imports" because we were not from there and they didn't like "outsiders who brought new ideas." among other things.

    This Piece Of Grass Just Cost Me £1700

    Two images showing mildly infuriating things testing patience: a tiny object in a tube and a dog with a toy on artificial grass.

    So my dog got a lump on her back that they thought could be cancer. When the vet went to do a biopsy, they found a foreign body in the lump. Turns out this piece of grass had penetrated her skin and caused an abscess. Cost £1700 with the bloods, operation, and meds. But at least she doesn't have cancer, so I'm skint but happy.

    We have two accident prone dogs. We also have insurance. It's definitely worth it. One of ours dislocated a finger ON BOXING DAY. So the vet appointment alone was several hundred pounds. Total bill was over £400 but we only paid the excess of £100.

    Our cat suddenly developed sneezing fits and it was really acting up the next day, too. We had friends over and were sitting around before dinner. After a really big sneeze, I saw a tiny tab of green hanging out of her nose, rose and slowly stalked over while murmuring, "I'll only get one chance..." I pounced, caught the green thing, the cat did her biggest sneeze yet and... I was standing there holding a snot covered 3" piece of grass in a snot covered hand. That thing worked itself out through her nose. The other three were lost to hysterical laughter, which I joined in on eventually. The cat vaporized in the moment but seemed much relieved later.

    My puppy had a lump on his side, couldnt find out what it was, bloods, samples and various scans showing all clear but the lump was clearly there and he was not being himself. Antibiotics not doing a thing. One day after about a week and a half I’m playing with him and I notice something sticking out of his side, call him over and there’s something poking out of the lump. In my shock I pulled it out then start screaming for my dad to take us to the vets now. Turns out he had swallowed whole a wooden skewer from a chinese takeaway my stepsister had left her rubbish on the sofa. His body had naturally ejected it and there was no internal damage, not even a hole or any blood from where it came out. Vets just said bodies are weird and amazing like that. Cost nearly £900 altogether (thank god for insurance so I got that all back) but at least he was ok and I have a funny story to tell.

    My cocker spaniel mix, Shyza, got some grass seeds that worked their way into the skin between his paws. We couldn't figure out what was wrong and took him to the vet. The vet extracted most, but we had to come back the next day to find more. My ex and I were in college at the time, so ouch for us as well as the dog.

    Roblox Will Be Uninstalled

    C*****d TV screen with colorful lines and a PlayStation 5 console nearby, showing mildly infuriating patience test.

    My wife called while I was at work and said it was a little “scratch” on the monitor… After further investigation, I found out my 7-year-old got annoyed at Roblox and threw the controller at it. It really ticks me off how my wife always sugarcoats everything he does. Like I can't even discipline him without her getting in the middle of it or shielding him like I’m a total abusive monster... This is crazy because I don’t even spank my kids; all it takes is a stern voice, and they start crying.

    OP needs to get a handle on that soon. Just tonight I saw a YT video of a 12yo who was arrested for making threats via text to the effect of "sticking" a fellow student with one of his collection of knives. The dad was beside himself, but the mom (who incidentally supplied the kid with the collection of knives) was going bonkers weeping and promising the kid that she will fix it.

    They must be from my neighborhood. Suburban street with *no* sidewalks and a lot of trees, and a couple of spots with small hills so there is restricted forward view of traffic. Over 90% of people here walk with their backs to oncoming traffic, and just *LOVE* to walk in the *middle of the lane* going up those hills so I would have to drive in the left lane to get past them - with no good view of approaching vehicles. (The rest of the people on our street love to drive at above 40 miles per hour in a 25 zone.) Whatever happened to 'Walk Facing Traffic'?

    Lowercase is not "off brand", just not the original. Corning sold the brand. PYREX (all caps) typically refers to the original borosilicate glass, known for its high resistance to thermal shock and used for labware and older cookware, while modern cookware with the lowercase pyrex logo (in the U.S.) is generally made of less expensive soda-lime glass.

I know the average I.Q. of the U.S. is 98, but it's as if someone dumped a gallon of stupid into the pool fairly recently, along with a couple of quarts of incivility.

    No. Men's clothing often has sewed pockets that you can open. Women's clothing just has the illusion and no fabric (most of the time). Most of the women would notice the pocket material hanging there versus just an imitation of the mouth of the pocket, don't you think

    Our local police station put up a beautiful little free library on our town square in memory of an officer who was k****d in the line of duty. Within a week, the LFL was torn down and the books stolen. Police replaced it. The next day it was torn down again and this time absolutely destroyed. Sometimes I hate my town.

    In a nearby town they organised an event where people could donate things they didn't want, and people who donated something could look around and take something that they wanted that somebody else had donated. It ran for three years. It stopped because a big white van with a bunch of large men and a woman turned up, they dropped off some torn manky blankets and then grabbed anything that looked like it might have value while the woman screamed "stop being racist!" to anybody that tried to stop them (they were, shall we say, people with no fixed abode who are notoriously light fingered). After that the town committee and many of the participants decided that they just weren't going to bother any more. [this is yet another reason why we can't have nice things]

    I was being optimistic and imagining some 10 year old kid thinking they'd won the lottery. And being holed up in their room with all the books. They'll probably return them all in 1 night. But who knows. Could be someone taking them to local used bookshop for money.

    Our Dog Chewed My Wife’s Passport 12 Hours Before Our International Flight

    Worn and partially torn US passport held open, showing damage that tests people’s patience in travel documents.

    We were packing for our family trip to Jamaica, and I heard my wife scream upstairs. She just tells me, “I’m not going to Jamaica,” and shows me her passport. Only the main page shown is torn. Nothing else. (The image depicted is after she tried taping it back together.) She dropped it on the bed for a second, and the dog got to it. And she is normally not destructive like that, but despite how annoyed we were, we couldn’t blame her.

    After reality had sunk in, I hopped on a call with a passport department inquiring about an emergency passport. They apparently only give them out if there is a tragedy in the family, etc. They searched for appointments nearby, and the only one on the East Coast was in Buffalo, NY, at 8 am the following day. So we changed my wife’s flight and sent her tour to Buffalo, and got her a 10:45 am flight out from Buffalo to Orlando, then to Jamaica, hoping that it would work.

    They don’t guarantee that you will get it the same day, but the reviews for the location were surprisingly positive, so we were hopeful. She shows up an hour early, is first in line, and they tell her they can get it the same day, but won’t start printing passports till 10 am. The manager came out and told my wife she should probably change her flight because he can’t guarantee that she will get it in time for the 10:45 flight.

    She comes back around 10, sits right, and the woman at the front desk gives a friendly wink to my wife. At 10:15, the manager tells my wife’s passport is printing. Around 10:20-10:25, they hand it to her and she hits the find driver button on the uber app. She gets picked up and takes the 15-minute ride to the airport. The uber driver told her he’s driven MANY people who flew from out of state to Buffalo for a same day passport, and he believed she could make it. Well, she did. Boarding got delayed, but she made it with like 10 minutes to spare and arrived in Jamaica only 3 hours after we did.
    It was beyond exhausting!

He packed it in his luggage and all luggage was already on board being routed to the appropriate cabin, so, I'm told I can go to the baggage area inside the ship to try to find his small carry on type bag......over an hour of running up decks to check out each luggage area trying to find his little bag....we now hear the announcement that all visitors must leave the gang-plank is being removed....my hubby's on the dock waiting...I'm cussing him out and frantically trying to find the "needle in the haystack"...and I finally find it on an elevator...so me and a staff person run like heck (I'm disabled, so running is a bit of a lie) We get to the gangplank waving the passport and they let him run up to board the ship with under 1 to shutting the boarding gate and shoving off!!! People on the ship and dock were cheering

    You think things are safe from a dog often means they still can get them. Ours got into the graduation caps even when they were on the upper most shelf at over 2 meters (almost 7ft). Also if you're packing, you're probably packing your passport too so it's no longer in it's normal place. Thanks to the emergency passport places around that can help

    Person Who Hacked My Credit Card Emailed Me Asking Why I Canceled His Flight

    Email text asking why a flight was cancelled, showing a mildly infuriating situation testing people's patience.

    My credit card was hacked. I think the guy did it by hacking my gmail account. Because he signed up for Priceline, with the login with gmail button.

    I called my bank and canceled it. I logged into Priceline to see if I could get any information about the person who booked the flight. I saw I could cancel it for no charge. So I did because it was going to be faster to get a refund from Priceline than my bank.

    Two days later I got this email. It had his photo and phone number. It matched the name on the flight too.

    My Teacher Marked Me Wrong Because Africa Is Now A Country

    Scantron sheet with multiple-choice questions showing incorrectly marked answers, illustrating mildly infuriating test mistakes.

    Environmental Science, climate change unit. But we're in Alabama, so we do everything we can to avoid actually talking about it.

    For some bizarre reason, I don’t put outdoor shoes on to make my breakfast coffee. During summer, I don’t even put slippers on. Just for the fun of really curdling your stomach, I have blinds or curtains closed overnight on every window, so sometimes I make breakfast coffee absolutely naked. Pale skin, floppy tıts, flat āss… all of it just hanging out there. Because I can.

    My aunt was a cleaning lady in the local hotel and owner tested her like this all the time. He left money in the nightstand, golden ring in th bed, expensive unopened perfume in the bathroom, etc. She worked there for years and never stole anything, and he still tested her. It's insulting, no one leave their things in plain sight.

    To be fair, a friend of the family who is just solidly middle-class, but is a SWM with two kids, paid someone to come by once a month or so and do some cleaning, and they just found out from the police that the cleaner had stolen thousands in electronics and jewelry from her and other clients, including the kids' tablets they used for school. I'm not rich either, just middle-class. I may not try something like this, but I promise I'm watching, and I don't trust anyone in my home, because I too have had my trust a****d too many times. This is an easy test to pass, intentional or otherwise. A decent person would be less disgusted, and regardless of whether you assume it's a test or a genuine mistake, just turn it in, little different than returning your shopping cart to the corral.

    10-Year-Old Nephew Threw A Fit And Broke Four Of My CDs On Christmas

    Four different CD cases laid open on a white surface, showcasing album art and discs causing mild infuriation.

    For context, my (step)nephew is my (step)brother’s kid. My nephew and his mother don’t live here anymore, so they come over for a few hours on holidays and weekends.
    On Christmas Day, I had opened all of my presents and gotten two CDs (KISS and Weezer) and a nice glass CD storage rack that my mom says was approximately $30. I have 23 CDs, including my new ones, and was sitting in the living room with my mom while I put my CDs into the storage rack. My nephew came over to get gifts from his grandma (my step-mom / my mom’s girlfriend) and my mom, as she had gotten him a gift too. I still had all my presents out in the living room since I didn’t want to put them away yet.
    While he was over, he had gotten upset because I had gotten a lot more presents than him (he got a second Nintendo Switch [broke his first one and a $500 drone, so he genuinely had nothing to be jealous of). He started to throw a tantrum, and so his mom tried to explain that he had gotten a lot more gifts at home and a lot more expensive gifts than me. He didn’t seem to care because he ended up grabbing my CD rack and throwing it on the ground, shattering the CD rack and breaking four of my CDs, including one of my new ones.

    The two in the picture were the two that thankfully only had broken cases. Mom says the KISS CD was $25. The Linkin Park one was only about $8 because I got it from McKays (kinda like a thrift store for books and video games–they only have like 5 locations, so I don’t think many people would know what it is). The two others were $20 CDs that were snapped in half. There were 3 other ones that had small cracks in their cases, but they still work perfectly fine. I think in total he did ~$100 of damage. I know that’s not really a lot of money but I’m 15 and paid for a lot of my CDs myself with money I made from cleaning and walking dogs so in my mind that’s like 3 bedrooms cleanings and 2 dog walks.

    I obviously ended up crying because he broke my two favorite CDs, and my moms kicked him and his mom out. His mom says that I’m being dramatic and that he shouldn’t be getting in trouble for breaking some “cheap CDs”. She also tried to pull the “he’s only ten” card, which annoyed me so bad because no 10-year-old should still be throwing tantrums.

    I remain astonished by parents who do not believe they have to pay for damages caused by their children. I don't care what it is. If your child breaks something, you are responsible for replacing it or paying for it. The world is not responsible for damages your child causes, you are. Not only is this mother not making it right, she's insulting the person that got their things broken. She's a do*che.

    Colleague Destroyed A Painting I Wanted To Buy

    Framed landscape painting with a large tear in the center, showcasing mildly infuriating things testing patience.

    I work at a thrift store and we had about 10 paintings coming in all really beautifully done, the frames where also very neat. I fell in love with this one in the photo but someone else had to price it before i could buy it so i ended up waiting until the end of the day to see if they got priced yet. My workday was almost over so i decided to walk to the back to see if the painting was priced yet and lo and behold, 10 painting in the trashcan. And not just in the trash can, my coworker stabbed them with a scissor. She smashed up the frames from the other paintings too and did the same to the art. I asked her why she did that and she just said "they never sell in store" while ive seen plenty of painting leaving the store for good prices and if we cant sell them we always end up using them for our own creative projects.

    I of course went to my supervisor and he said he would have a word with her but i was absolutely furious, i cant stop looking at the painting and how beautiful it was. I also feel bad for the person/artist that donated the paintings thinking they would get a loving new home.

    1 month ago (edited) Created by potrace 1.15, written by Peter Selinger 2001-2017

    I worked at a "generally" black and yellow "dollar" store, and we had to destroy everything we threw out, before it went into the dumpster. I'm talking literally break things with a hammer, or cut them up with scissors/box cutters. I was told (in so many words) that this was because the company didn't want people dumpster diving, because then they'd get the item for free, and not spend money in the store. Even something like a package of cookies that accidentally got cut open when we cut the tape on the case, had to be ripped open and dumped out of the package and into the dumpster. Even we workers weren't allowed to eat them. Even though they'd been written off, and we're literally trash. Elsewhere, I've seen perfectly good books get thrown away simply because they didn't sell in a certain amount of time. I asked why they weren't donated to nursing homes or whatever, and was told it was because family members took them home. As in, instead of buying a book. I've seen SO much more. You would be appalled how much useful, unbroken, perfectly good stuff goes in the trash, simply because the company behind it didn't make money off of it, so they want to make room for something else they can try to make money off of. These greedy, soulless companies create EXCESSIVE waste, and junk up the environment. And people who can't even afford to shop at the company's stores anyway, and who could REALLY benefit from a thrifted or scavenged find, go without. These companies destroy our environment and enable human suffering (and that's not even bringing up the subject of where they get their merchandise or WHO makes it, and what conditions they must work in!). But they do not care. They literally don't care about ANYTHING but money. It's disgusting. And it scares me, for the future.

    Poor Employees Had 30 Minutes To Clean An Entire Room That Looked Like This

    Cinema seats covered with spilled popcorn and trash, showcasing mildly infuriating things that test people’s patience.

    This was basically how the entire theater was looking, the poor employees had 30 minutes to clean the entire thing before another Minecraft movie started in that same room. The popcorn was stamped into the carpet in some spots. I can’t imagine they get paid enough for this.

    They (we) don't! I, in the 22 years I've been in the movie theater business, can't understand what possesses people to become such hedonistic animals when they get to a movie theater. Whether it's large crowds or just an individual or a few people, leaving your trash like this is rude, lazy, and downright mean. The thought process is "I don't have to clean it up so it's not big deal" F**k that and f**k you too! SOMEBODY has to! But you enjoyed yourself so that's all that matters, right? Do better!

    My 17 (then 16) y/o son went to see the Minecraft movie with his friend. He said that, fortunately, the showing he went to wasn't that rowdy. But unfortunately, there were others that were. I told him I better not EVER find out he did something like that. His response was looking at me like that was a dumb thing to say, and asking, "Why the hell would I do something like that?" He's not perfect, and neither am I. But I guess I'm doing okay, lol. And that aside, a large popcorn and 2 drinks like $15 or more at the theater! So on top of treating kids who are barely paid above minimum wage like slaves by making them clean THEIR mess, these people are wasting a TON of money. I'd like to think most of them are kids, which means it's their parents' money so they dont care. (Not that that makes it better, mind you.) But sadly, we all know SOME of the people who leave messes are adults who should know better. Personally, if I was with someone who did this on purpose, I would be mortified!!

    Paid Extra For Legroom Seats, But Spent 4 Hours With Kids Blocking The Emergency Exit Window

    Crowded airplane aisle with passengers standing and blocking space, illustrating mildly infuriating things that tested patience.

    I was flying with my sister and niece, and we paid €30 each for extra legroom seats. Seemed worth it for a 4-hour flight… until a dad and his two kids decided that the emergency door window right next to us was the most fascinating thing they’d ever seen.

    They stood there almost the entire flight, leaning over us, pointing, chatting loudly, and completely blocking the space we paid extra for. We had to call the flight attendant 3 times to get them to move, but they just kept coming back after a few minutes.

    The third time the FA came to tell them to sit down, she was already annoyed and warned them this would be the last time she told them to move. Sometimes I wish Europe were as strict as the US with the no fly lists.

    I would've outstretched my legs asI paid for the space that they were taking up, if they didn't like it they can just sit down and shut up. If they stood on my legs, well I guess that'll be common a*****t then.

    I had my spare wheel stolen from the back of my Land Rover. What I didn't know (and didn't think to check!) until the mechanic told me a week later is that they jacked it up and tried to steal the wheels, leaving me only the four locking wheel nuts and two they couldn't unscrew. I'd driven 100 miles like that up to 60mph!

    I had that happen. A neighbor in the adjoining apartment came to tell me. We went and looked at the space my tire was supposed to be, and I laughed. (I do that in stressful situations). We figured out someone went cruising looking for a tire that would fit their car. They were careful and set the car down carefully after. I bought wheel locks.

    If it ever happens again, go buy a coping saw blade (assuming you aren't a trim carpenter and already have one) and cut the end off. Stick the cut end in beside the key, turn it enough for the saw teeth to contact the broken off key, and slowly pull it out. Hopefully you have a spare key. This will keep you from needing to have the lockset replaced.

    I'm the kind of person that checks the lights and levels after a service. Lucky I did, as my car only had about a quarter of the necessary oil. I'm guessing the mechanic may have gone to sort out more and got distracted (phone call or customer or whatever) and thought he'd done it. I had some oil for my four stroke mower so I put that in until I could get some more oil, but it was like 10W40 (car) instead of 5W40 (mower) so I thought sod it and left the mower oil in. Worked fine until the next service. You'd have thought that, after completing work, a quick verification would be a part of the protocol, wouldn't you? Cap in place? Good. Dip-st-ick level correct? Good....

    If they ask, the answer is always no. If they have exigent circumstances, they don't have time or need to ask. But when you say yes, somehow you also assume all responsibility for any damage they cause. Of course, they'll deny responsibility anyway, but you at least have SOME shot of getting recompense if you told them no and they damage your property anyway. Oh, and I Am Not A Lawyer.

    My comment was based on the first article I read from a legitimate source. I have since read about it being border patrol being the culprits. Further info was the border patrol agent opened the door to let the dog out of the bathroom then shot it. The agent then hid from the family while they begged for help for their dog as the dog bled out on the floor. The border patrol agents would not assist nor would they let the family get help for their dying dog.

    Nephews Broke My Limited Edition And Gifted To Me Bob Segar Vinyl

    Two broken vinyl records with large missing pieces shown on a quilted surface, illustrating mildly infuriating things.

    Besides the fact that they are broken I actually had to hunt down the pieces because they played with it I think and my aunt gave less than "Oh sorry"

    I have a little stero nook in the front room where I have a record shelf with my record player and I came home from work to the record in question looking like someone attempted to pry it out from behind the shelf and lo and behold. Broken.

    Limited edition, a gift and even still in the plastic. A few other records were messed up but not to this degree and this one hurt the most. But "they're just kids" and "Things happen" and "You shouldn't get this worked up"

    Three “Trimmers” Came To “Shape” My 70-Year-Old Chinese Elm Tree

    Man in orange climbing a tall tree while another person walks below through branches in a messy yard outdoors

    I’m so heartbroken. I was so annoyed that I was holding back tears. They were only supposed to trim and shape the tree. They cut the branches off the whole thing.

    That looks like a hard prune, which is a restorative technique for a lot of woody shrubs and trees. It looks harsh now but also looks very well done, with one growing tip per branch, good spacing on the other preserved limbs, etc.

    We had this done to a cherry tree in our communal garden. It was either that or remove it completely as it was getting too big. Couple of years and it has really filled out. This is much better than letting it keep growing and finishing up with dead limbs which are a danger to anyone underneath.

    $600 Dumpster We Rented Was Filled Overnight By Some Random Jerk

    Large dumpster with trash scattered on the ground around it, showing a mildly infuriating mess that tests patience.

    Arrived at my parents’ this morning to keep cleaning out their house. except the brand new dumpster we had delivered was already completely filled. Not by us, but by whoever decided to back up after midnight and unload all their garbage into it. Authorities basically shrugged and said it’s a “civil matter.” Now we’re stuck paying ~$600 just to have it emptied before we can even use it.

    Only if they advertised them as "steel". A large proportion of modern safety footwear uses composite toecaps, and they can be certified as meeting relevant standards. There are even some environments where steel ones would not be allowed.

    Maybe not the right time or place to say it, but composite is designed to break at a certain level of pressure and squoosh (technical term) enough to save your feet. It’s also designed to break in such a way that foot damage is minimal. Steel toed boots will amputate your toes long before that happens.

    Composite toes - decent to good ones, anyway - are far superior to steel in almost every circumstance imaginable. My father had an on the job accident where he'd gotten a call to a worksite and someone dropped a manhole cover on his foot. Docs said due to the weight and way it fell, if he'd been wearing his steel toed shoes as required by OSHA regulation that he'd have lost one or more toes because the cap would have crushed in and likely severed them. It broke his foot in several places pretty seriously, but he kept the toes. Composites didn't exist (or weren't common/approved) at the time, but if they had, they'd have absorbed a lot of the force and finally either break or deform, and probably would have saved him a lot of the damage.

    My father grew up not knowing where your next meal was coming from poor... but his mother still managed to send donations to Jerry Falwell (and before him whatever church she was devoted to). I think it is disgusting that giving to religion was more important that taking care of her children. Even when she was terminally ill, she still had someone mailing in her donation for her. She was a miserable old women trying to buy her way into Heaven but I don't think she made it. I think she and Jerry (and all those other "religious" zealots) are all in the same place burning together.

    One Of My Roommates Ruined The Wok My Mom Bought For Me

    Rusty and burnt frying pan with a wooden handle on a wooden surface, showing mildly infuriating wear and stains.

    Moved to a new place a year ago. When I settled, my parents visited me and since I had nothing mine yet, my mom went to the supermarket and bought me a wok. It’s not very expensive, but it was a gift.

    I came back two days ago after being away for a couple of months. Today, I wanted to cook something, and that is how I found my wok.
    Nobody told me anything, nor apologised. Nothing. How do you even ruin it that bad in just two months?

    And as a side note, they never clean after themself when they’re done cooking, there’s food on the bench. I’m tired.

    We call them "Chelsea Tractors" in the UK - 4WD vehicles used exclusively for taking the kids to school. Chelsea is a wealthy part of London, so no one there is ever going off road in their car, hence the name.

    People in my hometown do this. All of them have huge place in front of their houses, you could park truck in there, and they choose to park two centimeters from wall, blocking whole sidewalk. And they usually block their mailbox with their cars. I have side job as postwoman, they just make my job harder.

    For decades, I had a truck that I used for truck purposes, but now I live in an apartment in downtown Long Beach, California, and have no need for a truck (although it came in handy when I moved apartments), but my company provides trucks for all management (and pays for gas), so.... I did use it a few times to haul campers and trailers.

    Guy Vaping On The Plane Next To Me

    Passenger struggling to write on an airplane tray table, showing a mildly infuriating moment testing patience in travel.

    After manspreading and eating a tuna sandwich on the plane, bro whips out his vape. I normally mind my own business, but he had been rude to me the whole flight, so I told the flight attendant, which annoys him off, so he started going off on me. The flight attendant had to intervene again.

It was during the night and we were the only 2 people on that carriage, not to mention that hew as a really big dude and I'm basically tiny. So I didn't say anything.

    Children should be taught from early on how to control their emotions. My youngest daughter has a temper. We had many, many days where I was sitting outside her bedroom door waiting for her to calm down because I wouldn’t let her out until she did. She learned to control her anger and not destroy things. Ten is well past the age when they should be learning to self regulate

    Not all kids are neurotypical. Some children cannot emotionally regulate. It takes years of specialized therapy. Likewise, this could be a kid who normally regulates well but had a one off moment. We don't know the situation.

    If he's done this before to other objects, get therapy. Any destruction requires payback, so chores, mowing the lawn, washing the car, cleaning the garage and his room, and/or dishes. Make sure he does them, even if youhave to stand there while he does.

    Write the hotel's headquarters and give them a detailed letter of events. The name of the front desk person so you can say they said it would be looked into. Say you are following up with conversation. Security needs a huge upgrade at the front desk and having security walk the floors at night. That hotel doesn't have enough supervision. You could have been robbed, r***d, and/or m******d. Staff needs better training in security and responding to a possible breakin.. The police should have been called. There were probably video cameras that may have helped catch the guy. The next person may not be so lucky.

    Roommate Always Pays Rent In $1 Bills

    Stack of one-dollar bills with a handwritten note on a guest check saying rent $200 cash, a mildly infuriating sight.

    My roommate works as a bartender, so he gets loads of $1 bills. He usually keeps the bigger bills, and pays rent with the 1s.
    I’ve told him various times to please change the bills before paying, but he takes it as a joke. At first it kinda was, but now it’s just annoying.
    He’s also late on his rent payment for January… only paid $200/500 because he has an upcoming birthday trip to Colombia.

    This Jerk Behind Me In Line In The Drive-Thru Blasting Me With Their High Beams

    The other night I was at the grocery store and was getting into my car. From a whole lane away from me, a truck, one of the high ones, was sitting there with its headlights on. The headlight facing me was so bright, I saw spots after just looking at it once. I went over to the truck and told the woman sitting there the brights were on. Nope, not brights, just normal headlights. One of these days someone is going to get k****d because of these bright lights and I hope their relatives sue the hell out of the car companies making these bright lights now. They're absolutely useless for anything except blinding oncoming cars.

    On my way to work I pass a milk truck. The driver kindly turns off these bloody great floodlights on the top, but doesn't think to switch down the headlights from main beam. I saw a car in front of me flash him "like, dude, your lights". Arsé responded by flashing his floodlights which were so f*****g bright I had to pull over until I stopped seeing spots every time I blinked and I was hundreds of metres back down the road, can't imagine how that was for the car approaching. Some people shouldn't be allowed....

    My wife's sister and her husband live in Florida in the path of one of the hurricanes last year. One of their neighbors left their Tesla in the garage when they evacuated. Apparently when the flood water reached the battery it started a fire (salt water is an excellent conductor of electricity), and the only part of the house that didn't burn was the part that was flooded.

    I did a free trial of adobe and cancelled it before it was supposed to charge. They still charged me so I thankfully used Amazon pay and disputed the charge. Got my money back but Adobe is still trying to charge me monthly and I keep getting emails yelling at me for them not being able to charge me. Of course can't email them back with my cancellation email either as they're emailing me from a 'no response' address.

    Why Is This Cup Designed For Baby Fingers

    Hand with bright pink nail polish holding a teacup with tea next to sugar packets and a teapot, mildly infuriating scene.

    You have to hold it with your fingers without a proper grip, so the weight isn't distributed evenly. Slightly annoying.

    Yep! According to the laws of thermodynamics and how metals work, metals shrink when it gets cold, and thus the top (if it is a metal top) it will often shrink to fit the jar and thus creating an almost unopenable seal. Making it warm or running just the seal under warm water for a good bit will almost always fix the problem. Science! This will work for anything with a metal top and container if you cant open it most of the time, especially if its already cold.

    My Grandma’s Lunch At Her New Senior Living Residence That’s $3k A Month

    Styrofoam container with a small portion of food and a single piece of moldy lettuce, showing mildly infuriating things testing patience.

    Residents can’t go to the dining room to eat because they don’t have enough staff, so it’s deliveries only. What is this?!

    The place is brand new, it was built in the last 2 years and we sold her house and moved her here about 6 months ago. We all bring her groceries and stuff and she makes whatever she wants but there are people her who don’t have that luxury, and it annoys me. $3K for rent and this is what they’re serving?

She said all they had to do was follow a few standard recipes, and they couldn't even manage to do that much. Companies will not shell out the money to hire qualified staff.

    Last year I ordered a robot vacuum direct from Roborock. They sent it via DHL, who did not give me any delivery information, tried to deliver it once when I was not in (because I had no idea when delivery would be), and immediately sent it back to the warehouse. They didn't even drop a "we tried to deliver" card through the door. I only found out because I was checking the order manually each day for updates. I got my refund and waited patiently for Black Friday to come around so I could get a similar bargain. Yesterday they delivered my new Roborock (with slightly better updates on delivery dates at least) and just left it outside my front door. Several hundred pounds worth of tech on my doorstep for an hour or more while I was getting my eyes tested.

    Long shot but if you can identify the car those bits left over came from you might have a lead, if the person responsible is local. Someone out there has an identically damaged car. Long shot for sure, but but some years ago a drunk driver drove through the front of one of my buildings, and though he backed out, some bits of his truck were left behind in the wreckage. I went to a local junkyard, where they have a book identifying bits of vehicles, found the year and model, and a while later I spotted the truck. Caught the guy! He was, of course, broke and pathetic, but at least I got closure of a sort.

    There wasn't one single thing I ever made or bought for my mom that she didn't find something to b***h about it (if you didn't send something for a holiday or Mother's Day, she'd b***h about that). If I sent her a card, she'd complain about how much it cost and why did I bother? The next card I sent I inked out the price. Go ahead and do this, people, and then wonder why nothing ever gets sent to you again. When my mom died, my first thought was, "Great, I don't have to send her something ever again and listen to her complain about it."

    Have to side with the customer here. What is the point of them moving forward? Yeah, maybe they should have come inside or preordered, but you've got 20 sandwiches to make before you can move on to other customers either way. If you need extra time to create the order, let the customer know when they are placing the order, not after they've already paid. Also, I find the "please pull ahead and wait" thing to be highly a****d practice, not to improve actual efficiency but to manipulate internal drive-thru speed metrics/targets. Most of the time that I'm asked to do it, there is literally no one else in the drive-thru. At McDonald's, where its a****d often, I now outright refuse to do so (regardless of the line) unless I've made a special request on my order. Every single time I've refused, I had my food in my hand within 30-40 seconds max. Any other time when I previously pulled forward at their request, the average time for someone to get around to bringing me my food was about 5 minutes.

    Cleaner Broke My Guitar And Never Told Me

    Broken guitar with missing neck head causing frustration, a mildly infuriating thing testing people's patience at home.

    Thought about playing it after a week or so and was awestruck when i opened the cover and found the top broken and hanging off the guitar. Im 99% sure it was my house help who cleans the house occasionally. She probably dropped it and heard sth but never bothered to say anything. And she was gonna quit too which she did a few days ago so quite clever from her. I liked this guitar a lot and it was my first proper guitar. Im gonna try to buy the same one again probably.

    The break at the headstock looks like the neck is made from particle board. It might have snapped due to string tension. I once had a cheap guitar break in the middle of the night. It woke up everyone in the house.

    It can be repaired. My son broke the neck on his first guitar... it cost us more to repair than we paid for it but it was sentimental because it was the one he learned on.

    Johnson makes a pretty good guitar. Even the high end ones are reasonable. They are built with the same materials as a Martin. Rosewood frets, etc. Sounds good and a lot cheaper. I had an action job done on mine to specifically accomodate D'Addario Custom Lights. Sounds great.

    I Had To Brute Force My Suitcase Lock Code, I Started At 000, It Was 980

    Close-up of zipper on red luggage where two slider pulls are locked together, showing a mildly infuriating design flaw testing patience.

    I somehow accidentally reset the lock on my suitcase while it was locked. I decided to start at 000 and count upwards. It ended up being 980... I tried to unlock my suitcase 980 times, but if I had started at 999, I would have only had to do it 20 times.

    Often with the cheaper sort of locks, if you put pressure on the mechanism and carefully rotate the numbers, you'll feel either a stiffer number or like it's clicking into place (depends upon the lock). They aren't particularly secure, those things.

    I've worked at my current job for 27 years. My employer just put up new multimillion dollar built-to-order, state of the art office tower. Well - seems they wildly underestimated how many more people they might hire between finalizing the plans and moving in, so there are too few desks - by a huge margin. They've already sold the old building, so we have to clear out. I found out recently that my whole department aren't even getting cubicles (which are nothing to write home about anyway) but will basically be seated in something akin to library study carrels. We weren't asked if we'd mind, we weren't offered "real" cubes based on seniority, we're just expected to suck it down. Worst of all, they keep spamming us with insipid "Don't Fear Change" videos - adding condescending insult to injury.

    My House Was Built On A Landfill

    A shallow hole dug in grass with broken glass and rusty bottles, illustrating mildly infuriating things testing patience.

    My house was built on a landfill...

    While trying to plant a cherry tree in my yard, I kept hitting hard things about 4 in below the surface. I was really hoping there'd be some large cool stones I could add to my landscaping, but nope. It was just bottles and bottles and bottles and tons more broken glass bottles. After all this digging through and separating pieces of broken glass from my lovely, rich soil and keeping my 3-year-old away because he wanted to help pick up the glass, I had fill it back in because I dug too close to the house.

    So my yoshina cherry tree is still not planted, and I have two apple trees and two peach trees to get in the ground as well. So after all of that, I will not be doing that today. It continuously becomes more and more evident that the previous homeowners who built our house were very trashy. Also, we have grubs and wild hogs that keep tearing up our yard to find them.

    Yeah, used to be quite common in workplaces or associated caffs to never wash the teapot, for that reason. I don't think it would actually make any difference, but it's part of the British working man's tradition that tea, proper "builder's tea" should be "strong enough you could stand a spoon up in it" and this helps preserve the myth.

    Chick-Fil-A = Chicken Sandwich, a boneless chicken breast, normally with 1-3 pickles on it, you can add your own sauces, buttered bun, etc. I work at a CFA, I can say this is an absolutely terribly made meal. Most restaurants wont have this type of food... hopefully. Maybe I'm just lucky. ONE THING I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THO. The bags design looks kinda old, so this is either some random "old school" CFA where they might do the sandwich differently, or this is an old picture. So honestly I have no idea what the context is.

    My Dad Is One Of "Those" Drivers

    Navigation app showing a car speeding at 144 km/h in a 100 km/h zone, mildly infuriating and testing patience.

    I had to pick my parents up from the airport today, my Dad insists on driving any time he can. It doesn't matter how many times I offer, he will be the one driving if we are going somewhere (especially if we are driving his SUV, which I was today for their luggage). He speeds, weaves, and curses at anyone in front of him. He also has started glancing at his phone from time to time which makes me want to scream. It gets me clenching the door handle and closing my eyes at times just to try and calm myself down. And all of this nonsense just to get home roughly 2-6 minutes faster than we would have.

    I have some genuine anxiety attached to driving, thanks to a rather traumatizing high school driver's Ed program put on at our local hospital. We got to learn all about the ways that reckless driving and speeding can destroy lives and futures. Thanks to that, I've always been a very defensive and cautious driver. To my family, I'm just the "anxious driver" so no one ever wants to be my passenger cause I "drive in slower lanes" and "don't try to pass others".

    Trying to mention that his driving makes me uncomfortable/unsafe or asking him to slow down never goes well. He also drives this way with his kids and/or wife in the car, so I'm sure he also does it when he drives his grandson. It's all so infuriating and I can't really do anything about it. Mentioning it is like "questioning his skills as a man" which is just so barf, I don't care that you feel emasculated.

    Common in New England, apparently, but the Witch superstition idea, that they would be unable to enter the house through a crooked window, was probably started a long time after they'd been used for purely practical reasons to put a window where there would otherwise have not been space.

    Sloped ceiling indicates either half story or attic room, and if there' s a lower roof below, that's the only way you can put a double-hung window. And without going to some exotic custom window that's the only kind of window you can put in that will open. As others note, it's a pretty standard practice on older houses, often called, for reasons I don't know, a "witch window."

    Rule Number 1 Is No Smoking In My Car. Guess My Mom Doesn't Care

    Close-up of a dirty car cup holder with crumbs and trash, showing a mildly infuriating thing that tests patience.

    I'm a non-smoker, and as such, there is only ONE RULE in my car: no smoking. My mom smokes, and her car broke down, so I gave her mine because she needs it to go to work on certain days of the week (she's a school animator, and works at different places). I've been VERY CLEAR about her not being allowed to smoke in my car, so she KNOWS.

    I can't really do much about it, like she needs a car to go to work, but still, it just annoys me a bit.
