There's undoubtedly something about broken patterns, messy alignments, and other flawed elements that bothers us. Even if you don't consider yourself a perfectionist, your brain is programmed to prefer things in a nice order, and everything else may fall in the "annoying" category.

Don't believe me? Bored Panda has put together a list of pics to prove just how annoyed you could get in everyday situations. From a glass, standing crooked on its stem, to shipments that got messy because there was no padding, these photos will definitely grind your gears. Scroll down for the images and don't forget to upvote the ones that annoyed you the most!

I swear this is only an American thing. We lean when people are right in the direct line of sight, just to avoid making eye contact through that "tiny" crack in the door.

Questions to carpenters reading: Is this because the angle is more acute than 45 degrees? Are boards improperly mitered? Is this a good job?

Its easy to fix, and if it affects your disposition, do the following. 1. turn off power at circuit box. 2. remover face plate. 3. unscrew odd switch and turn 180 degrees. 4. reattach switch. 5. replace face plate. And lastly 6. turn on power at circuit box. All you need is a screwdriver and a little determination. There's another solution to this though. Find a man who has a good mechanical aptitude, and a sense of humor. :D

There's another switch operating the same light across the room. That's what you get when you have two or more shut off/on switches for the same fixture.

Could be on a stairway, with another switch at the top. So you go up the stairs, flip the other switch to put the light back on, then come back downstairs and flip the downstairs switch to off again.

So flip the switch on the other side of the room, come back and flip this one. It's a single-single-threeway.

Two and a half years I was with the ex the light switch by the front door was always on when down and off when up you think either one of us ever figured that out constantly flipping the wrong light switches

This might be a situation where one light also has a switch at another location in the room.

That can be irritating. However, if you had removed the left section and handed just that to the person, this would not have happened. Prevention is 9/10 of a cure. :O

Oh, this one annoys me so much! When they're leaving the cursor ON the video or the playbar. I don't care if you're a friend of mine showing me a video on your computer, but if you're publicly gonna show a video as part of a presentation or a meeting, please, don't do that! It's so distracting and unprofessional!
