When talking about things that drive us crazy, we often use the phrase “like a red rag to a bull”, referring to the Spanish bullfights. In fact, of course, it is not the red rag itself that irritates the bull – after all, they do not distinguish colors at all, but its flickering and the noise of the crowded arena. But the phrase has taken root, and now it is most often referred to by people.
And indeed, there are things and situations that, unfortunately, are quite common in our lives, for which literally a moment is enough to turn an ordinary and very satisfied person into, let’s say, the Hulk on minimum bid. And there are plenty of such things in the world around us.
There is a popular thread in the Askreddit community where the author of the original post asked the question: “What immediately makes you angry?” As of today, the thread has over 1.5K upvotes and nearly 3.2K comments. What can we say? We had no idea that things that seem so completely harmless at first glance can drive people into a frenzy!
If you’re intrigued, it’s time to start scrolling through this selection of the most popular, unexpected and really annoying comments that Bored Panda has made especially for you. So, please, feel free to read for your pleasure, mark the submissions you like most of all and be sure to scroll to the very end.
By the way, let’s add one more thing that literally makes us mad – the absence or a small number of comments on posts. This is by no means a call to action, but we are so extremely happy when we see your comments – why not please us once more?

Calling a gigantic corporation knowing full well I will speak to a robot for the first 5 minutes, on hold for the next 30, to explain my situation to 3 different people, of which none will help me.

When someone defends Nazi’s or people with similar mentality because “you need to respect everyone’s opinion”.
No, I don’t. Not if their opinion involves murdering or oppressing people.
Fascists can f**k right off and so can the people who defend them.
#6
People who are rude to fast food workers and store clerks. Like, they’re doing you a service, why be rude? It ain’t the cashiers fault the McRib ain’t on the menu.

When people fake diseases and disorders for attention. No Sarah, you aren’t autistic and dreamsexual. It’s personality you lack, not chromosomes
#13
People not picking up after their dogs.
Not sure if it makes me angry, but maybe close. Especially since when I’m walking my dog, I don’t want people to think it’s me who is the culprit.

#14
When I see someone consciously, maliciously abusing any being unable to defend itself.
Accidental abuse is more understandable *if* the severity of the abuse isn’t high, and *if* it stops when the abuser is made aware of it.
#15
People who break the rules of the road at others expense (cutting people off, not using turn signal, using the shoulder to skip traffic, ect.) Even when it doesn’t inconvenience me directly

People cursing at their children, child neglect.

If you’re in such a hurry to risk my life and yours then push your foot down on the pedal a bit more.

People that can’t pay attention to movies and spend most of the time on their phones, especially if its a movie that I specifically wanted to show them. Then they ask questions that were already answered and don’t get what it was about. Drives me absolutely insane

People ignoring things I say and then getting mad at me later
This happened a lot with a former friend. He’s no longer my friend.
Happened at a former workplace too, and was a large factor in why I decided to quit

The grocery store. I’m a calm person and rarely get angry, but every time I go grocery shopping, someone does something totally stupid to make me mad. Like, blocking a whole aisle for no reason, walking in a group that pushes you to the side, how stores randomly change items’ locations so it forces people to look around and buy other things they normally wouldn’t, almost getting run over in the parking lot OR when you’re in the car and people take their sweet time walking by you for no reason…
Ugh, I hate grocery stores. Worst places ever, and I have no idea why they’re the only place to irritate me this strongly
#35
People who are incompetent but don’t know that they are incompetent, and they try to fix things that do not need fixing.
Incompetent and lazy, ok.
Competent and lazy, ok.
Competent and hardworking, ok.
Incompetent and hardworking, please get out!!
