Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...

I was staying on a house boat on the River Kwai in Kanchanaburi, Thailand (not relevant to the story but makes it sound more exotic). I got up one morning and started brushing my teeth with what I obviously thought was toothpaste but turned out to be my girlfriend at the time's Canesten - thrush cream. 

Would not recommend.

Being continually asked for the time because everyone else is too lazy to wear a watch.

Do these people not have phones?

Watches are largely redundant these days anyway. I was bought a watch as a gift for my brothers wedding but I genuinely don't think I've ever worn one. They just aren't required.

See also sat navs. The amount of conversations lately I've had with people who have asked me my address and then 10 follow up questions about how to get there.

Seriously.... Is Google maps complicated to work?????

I very much hope you don't vote because you're clearly very simple.

Bollocks. What happens if your phone dies? Being dependant on your phone for everything is the mark of a moron.

You’re quite happy quietly listening to your regular radio station starting out on a car journey, when your passenger pipes up, ‘do you mind if I put some music on’? then connect up and proceed to run through their entire Apple Music playlist of repetitive, banal drivel, whilst skipping, pausing & repeating tracks, interspersed with a promise of ‘you’re gonna absolutely LOVE this’.
You quietly seethe for the next hour or so, wishing only, that you could hurl both them and their infernal iPhone out of the fuckin window.

As my gran got older, she stopped saying her actual age and talked about what she would be on her next birthday, eg “I’m in my 90th year”. This bizzare trait seemed to be present in all her pals at the care home as well, although she definitely did it while she still lived in her own house, so she was probably the p***k that passes it on to all of them.
Anyway, my petty thing today is that I needed to pick up a parcel. The shop is only a 10min walk away, but with it being a nice day, I planned a nice wee walk round the long way, which would see me pick up the parcel on the way back.
Great walk, but did I remember to pick up the parcel? Of course not. I even bought my fucking lunch in the shop I was supposed to collect it from.
very similar to yourself mate i just went to the shop as ran out of milk. got home with a load of shopping but no milk. i want my cheerios!

Their phone is charging, they left it in their room, it's switched of because they're at work, or they're carrying something so they don't have a free hand to access their phone.
