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 Wait, who invited the volume monster?
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.

#2 The Volume Battle Nobody Wins
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.

#3 Not the Space Solution I Asked For
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.

#15 Instant Karma, Served Hot
This just happened to me. When people respond to your email and spell your name wrong, despite the fact that both my email and the contact associated with my email both have my name spelled correctly, not to mention I signed my name at the end of the email.
I responded by thanking him and misspelling his name.

When people say “I seen…” instead of “I saw…”
Hearing someone chew.
#25 That crunch though, hard pass

#30 Actually, You Care More Than You Think

#31 Proof English Class Actually Mattered
Improper grammar. Mainly from the kids who sat through English class complaining that they “speak the language so there is no need to study it”.
This was also before social media so it wasn’t noticed as much. But once Facebook hit… the horror.
#32 Not Your Project, Guys
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.
