that can turn a decent person into a raving loonie...
-well at least that is what happens with me :giggle

but no, seriously.
Those little things, annoying-
Wrong stuff but people keep doing it, and it can ruin your day big time-
Mine:
People who speed over the speed limit in residential areas and hassle you to hurry up, try over taking in dangerous ways, shout at you even, and then you fer side by side at the traffic lights...
they save no time, they are in the same place I am...but they just ruin my day-
Sarita says there are two distinctive personalities of mine: driver & non driver...people like that cab get the worse out of my driver persona-
When I was better health wise, I would even throw my car in the way and stop them and lecture them about speed limits... these days I control myself, with all the road rage we have ...
so...that's mine-

have you got one? something that annoys you terribly and you are completely powerless to change anything?https://the-lilypad.com//www.pinterest.com/pin/create/extension/

Oooh I have another driving one. 40mph - ers. We seem to have an epidemic of these around here. They drive along at 40 mph on an open country road where the limit is 60. Fine, I think to myself, they are a careful driver, fair enough. BUT ,when we reach a village with a 30 or even 20mph limit, they stay at 40!!!! I am not sure why, but it makes me soooo angry :furious So I am with you 100% Cynthia!
 
Another driving one as I am going to pick the boy up today. When I get on the highway and people just sit in the passing lane but are cruising along at the speed limit....it is a 3 lane highway people, the far left lane is for those of us who would like to go faster which is why it is called a passing lane. Sorry Cyn I am a speeder, not in residential areas but get me on a highway and I am running 15-20 kms over (police won't pull you over for that on major highway).
 
I'll hop on Jaye's... I usually sing... Move, Get outta the way, get outta the way, move...

My other thing is when people don't read my emails. This happens mostly at work, lol! Like for work, I will send an email about a purchase order for hand rails... and then they respond with answers about stairs. Um....no. Can you actually read what I emailed? I even try to follow the KISS method... lol!
 
Drivers who don't signal before turning and/or changing lanes are my biggest frustration while on the road. I won't even get started on the frustrations I deal with at work, I might never stop! Luckily, most of them do not originate with my co-workers, but the general public that we talk to all day long.
 
I don't like when I see drivers looking at their phones why you can't wait you put us in danger and yourself in danger
 
Jaye: I m the same in the motorway.....

but here in residential areas?????

I mean I get annoyed if people go too slow in residential areas too...but I was fined once.
The fines here are huge.
and I saw a kid die in the road in front of his school because of a guy who was doing 40 instead of 30 mp/h

I have to admit: on motor ways I try sticking to the slow lane...this country is full of nutters LOL not so many as in Brazil )or Egypt...OMG Cairo is possibly the WORSE place to drive!!!!!)

I have another one...thinning hair that falls ...now more than ever, hair is everywhere in my house!!!! is not only me because I'm old, Sarita looses it too a LOT!!!!!
I started loosing hair since I was 19...great thing I still have a full head..but is so annoying when you have it everywhere!!!!

I drove in Jordan and I like to say if I drove there I can drive anywhere it's crazy
 
Dog fur everywhere. I vacuum and the very next day it is like he has dropped half his fur on the floor already. What is it with that dog?! :)

My next door neighbour who doesn't pick up his dog's poop regularly. He has little bombs all over his back yard and it looks (and smells) terrible.

And that same neighbour who doesn't pick his weeds, so they end up going to seed and blowing into my backyard, giving me a lot of weeding to do when all of that germinates.
 
Oh yes Heather. I get angry when I see people walking their dog and they pick up after them. Those little poop bags are not expensive people and there are garbage cans all around town.

People with fancy cars who decide to take up two parking spots.......if you are that worried about your car park far away.
 
Jana... you know I have heard that in India is crazy too!!!!!! maybe is something to do with the hemisphere? LOL

Heather: the hair thing?
you would have it with me if I was at your house LOL
is like I shed a layer of hair every day !!!!

I really detest people who don't care about their community and are careless like that, no care with their animals, no care with their gardens and so it messes with neighbors....
also the noise levels...we have people around that I have been fighting to get moved as one of the guys is what they call "care in the community"
well, me, I, as community...do NOT want to care for a 28 years old complete nutter who spends his nights banging on a drum kit,, shouting to some grunge song very loud and when he gets tired of the drum kit, he starts throwing his skate board on the walls.... he calmed down for a while when Sarita was little, he started again a year or so ago :(

I think the council here is going to start going after the dog owners who don't pick up after their dogs, I read something about DNA testing...not really sure but I remember thinking it was a great idea, lets hope is not a new scam for council; workers to get to pocket money ....
 
I'm with Heather! dog hair. 3 dogs = never-ending invasion of the stuff! i should have stopped with the hypo-allergetic shih tzu who never really sheds! the other two ... OMG!!!!

Hmmmm, I have a few similar to those already mentioned. People casually driving in the left lane - I am with Jenn "move, get out tha way, get out tha way". Does anyone know how to use a median properly? Our mail box is the neighborhood pee stop. Workers in offices or customer service that finish what they are doing before they even acknowledge you....then act like you are bothering them while they are doing their job. How hard is it to say "be right with you" hahahaha...I mean, I see you are busy and will get to me but for real, guerl...
