Push someone's bangs out of their eyes?
Straighten a picture frame in someone's house that wasn't straight?
Change the toilet paper because it was put on "wrong"?
What little things make you crazy?

Yep.

All of the above.

I hate stores that are cluttered. My brain can't focus on what's there. I usually just leave.

I try not to care all that much what other people are doing. But, yeah, even if you try to avoid the annoyances of life, they smack you upside the head when you aren't looking, lol. biggrin

Last year, I went to lunch with a friend. Then she wanted to go to Bed, Bath & Beyond. Talk about CLUTTER!!!

Did you ever want to ...

tell someone their turn signal has been on for the last mile?

tell someone their headlights are supposed to be on when it's dark out?

tell someone to STFU when they're ranting about nonsense?

tell someone the back of her skirt is stuck in her pantyhose?

tell someone his zipper is open?

I have to sit on my hands when someone has hair in their face, covering an eye. How can they stand it?

I "correct" the toilet paper roll constantly in my house. I confess I have also done that in a friend's house. Yikes!

Spelling errors and text-speak in work e-mails that are supposed to be professional put me over the edge. I just cringe for the sender.

But the worst is foaming. People who develop little beads of foam at the corners of their mouth when they speak.

Now I've lost my appetite. Sorry.

"I "correct" the toilet paper roll constantly in my house. I confess I have also done that in a friend's house."

Do you switch it so it unrolls over the top? Or unrolls underneath?

I'm an over-the-topper. Always have been.

This scares me. I can't tell you how many times I see this. I always wonder how much they've had to drink...

When"daytime running lights" were new, I had a rental car (Buick) that had them. This was long before the electronic L.E.D. dashboards we have now. Drivers wouldn't be able to see the speedometer in the dark unless the lights were on, which probably reminded people to turn on the headlights.

In the Buick, the headlights were on (low power) and the DASHBOARD lights were on when the engine was running.

But NOT the tail lights or license plate light or side marker lights.

SURPRISE!!! I hadn't turned on the light when it got dark. Oops.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

No. Never had the desire to do any of that.

I will tell someone they left their lights on if I can. But that is about being helpful.

The only thing that really bugs me is people not washing their hands in the bathroom or blowing their nose at the table.

I wont say anything about the hand washing.

But if some one blows their nose at the table, I cant seem to stop myself. I have to say something. Make a comment about how gross it is loud enough for them to hear. It gags me. Cant stand it.

I straighten pictures EVERYWHERE - homes, offices, restaurants. I almost had to change hotel rooms on our last trip because the picture was affixed to the wall crooked and COULD NOT BE STRAIGHTENED. It was awful. I had to face away from it and quit looking at it.

This sounds like DD16. She does the same thing. She has a teacher who purposefully will make one picture in class crooked to see how long it takes DD to notice. Typically she fixes it before she even sits down. She has been known to get up from her seat during class and fix something on the wall and go back to her seat.

To be fair, she has a really good eye and can do it as well as I can when I am using a level.

I watched an interview last night and this guy had one lock of hair hanging into his eyes. One lock. It was all gelled that way. By the time the hour was over I wanted to punch the tv. Drove me nuts looking at that one lock of hair in his eyes.

One of the bosses wears a wig for religious reasons. Her bangs are too long.....what is she thinking?????

WYSIWYG · Guru

I've been known to straighten the occasional picture or two.

Of course the TP must be fixed. That's a given.

Some very religious Jewish sects.

No one but their husbands can see their hair.

I run a certain test in the sterilizers every morning. It's wrapped in blue paper and has a little yellow dot. No one is allowed to fill the drawer we keep them in because they don't put them in with the dots all facing the same way. Drives me nuts. I do the test 90% if the time so I just fill the drawer myself.
