There’s a silent universal nod for what things people commonly find irritating. Like, when someone’s loudly gobbling a mouthful, or picking their teeth with bare hands (worse, braces!), or when a person in front of you is biting their nails like they were some salty caramel popcorn. Apologies for ruining whatever it is that you were eating.

But people are so much more complex than that. You see, among the universally annoying and “no, we won’t be friends after that” list stands a bunch of very subtle little things that for many mortal ones, like you and me, don’t even raise an eyebrow, but for others, provoke a full-on breakdown.

So let’s dive deep into the sea of stuff people find annoying, although often totally irrational.

#1

50 Specific Little Things That Are So Irritating, People Can’t Stand Them When the TV show you're watching goes to an ad and the volume goes from reasonable to incredibly loud without having changed the volume.

50 Specific Little Things That Are So Irritating, People Can’t Stand Them Having to watch movies with your thumb on the volume buttons on the remote - have to turn it up to hear talking, then its immediately too loud for action sequences and wakes up the kids. Movie night ends before it even starts.

Same applies to TV shows when the commercials are louder than the show you're watching.

50 Specific Little Things That Are So Irritating, People Can’t Stand Them People who step closer to you when you step away from them. You were violating my personal space, and I’m trying to fix that. Come on.

I once got almost crushed by my cart going up the escalator because the couple before me just kept standing there at the exit, thinking what to do next. Thankfully, no incidents happened, but they didn't even notice me, so no apologies. I was too young and nice back then, nowadays, I'd just kick their asses with my cart. Less damage than getting crushed on a freaking escalator.

You come back ten minutes later and Mr. I Smoked Five Joints Before I Came To The Store is still standing there staring.

It really depends how you define pessimism. If it's the good old sarcastic jokes, they help you cope with this situation you don't want to be in. Also, when there's a problem, it needs to be addressed. I dislike constant meaningless complaints too, but the "just shut up and work" is a bit of an unhealthy and kinda dangerous attitude. Meanwhile, forced optimism is annoying too. It feels insensitive.

It's one thing when people use improper grammar while speaking or informal communication like texting- I don't mind it, it's usually cultural - but I can't abide it in formal or professional writing/correspondence. There was an article a while back in the US about a group of college students trying to get their professor fired on the grounds that he was racist for correcting and knocking off points for improper grammar in their papers. It still gets me to this day, because you know what the real kicker was? THEY WERE JOURNALISM MAJORS.

The last specific thing I remember getting real pissed about was ghost flights.

At the beginning of the pandemic, flights were running without passengers because if they just stayed on the ground they would lose government subsidies. So they flew around without any passengers wasting insane amounts of jet fuel for government benefits.

50 Specific Little Things That Are So Irritating, People Can’t Stand Them During May, I had 3 guys hit on me hard through the online games. They know nothing about my personality, didn't bother to ask, but just kept wanting pictures and personal information and trying to insert themselves into whatever I'm doing.

One of them would not stop pushing his sexuality onto me until I blocked him. The other two treat me like a little fragile girl in need of rescuing. Dudes, I'm fine! Stop! It's such a waste of time and I'm practising being less polite and passive about it.

I hate this too. I play a poker game on my VR and omg, dudes will come out of nowhere and try to talk to you. If you wanna talk like a normal human, cool. But please don't flirt and be stupid, I'm not there for a cyber date. I'm there to take your money lol (fake money not played for real money)

In the UK technically there is no fast lane, it is the lane and one or two overtaking lanes, everyone is meant to drive in the left lane and only use the others for overtaking only. But it doesn't work like that in practise

When I’m stretched out to my max capacity to reach an item and it’s still JUST out of reach

When an old lady comes on the bus, nobody offers their seat. I will give up my seat when she comes near me but I'm not going to yell across the bus to get her attention.

Young people (16 year olds) who stand near the entrance of the bus to the point where I have to force my way through to get off the bus. Somehow their idiot faces tell me they still don't think they are in the way.

I gave up my seat for someone with crutches once when I had a broken arm. Scores of healthy-looking people, surely one of them must have been in a better condition than me. I nabbed it back when the person with crutches got off at another stop and someone new getting on glared at me. FFS - I'm INJURED and was on the flipping bus first.

Sound of lips smacking while eating. I hate it. Even if they're quiet, I still just want to explode.

When someone mumbles. I'll ask them three or four times what they said and they still mumble. I get so mad

This is one of the things that can make people more irritable as they grow old. They lose hearing gradually, so more and more people "mumble" (while they just talk normally) but because the change is slow and gradual, they don't think it's a hearing loss.

When people try to win arguments by being louder and dumber. It really makes me want to punch the person. Like if you don't have a valid claim, shut up

Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. Mark Twain.

Hearing someone’s music through their earbuds.

Like first of all, I don’t want to hear your music. But because it’s through your earbuds, all I can hear is the beat of the s****y rap song that sounds exactly the same as the previous one.

Traffic lights that are green on streets with no cars or pedestrians crossing while the other two streets are filling up with cars waiting on a pointless red light.

Busy intersections should have intelligent redlights that change according to traffic.

On my media player the cursor becomes a pointing finger. Some times when my wife leaves it on the screen, I'll start to subtly 'Picking noses' of the actors with it.
