Here is the next instalment of the “21” series from First Blue Door On The Left! I’m not just a miserable person, there are plenty of things I like, but these things are definitely my biggest 21 pet peeves!
1. People who hang the toilet roll up backwards.
The sheets should roll over the top, not the back. If I come to your house and
it’s backwards, expect it to be changed.
2. Drivers that don’t say thank you when you give way to them. Just rude!
3. People who drive on their mobile phone. It’s a shame if you want to kill yourself, but don’t kill the rest of the road users at the same time. Same for drink driving.
4. People walking really close behind me. Not exactly a crime, but it makes me feel very uneasy
5. Middle lane hoggers on the motorway. MOVE!!!
6. People parking in disabled bays that aren’t disabled…. Sort it out!
7. Flies. What are they even for, God could have at least given them bigger eyes so they could see where they were going and not fly into me!
8. Waiting times. If I have an appointment at 10am, I want to be seen at 10am, not 11:15
9. Buying numerous items in a supermarket, and being asked if you want a bag. No love, wait a minute Ill balance them all on my head.
10. Cashiers that give you change on top of your receipt. Not helpful
11. Scraping cutlery on plates when cutting up food. Shiver
12. On public transport, when almost every seat is empty, the smelliest person ever comes and sits right next to you. Choose another seat <3
13. When old people stare at you like you’re going to stab them. Give the younger generation a chance, they’ll give you one too. We ain’t that bad!
14. Similarly, young people who hate on old people. If you stop to listen to them you might just educate yourself a bit
15. Guys who wear their pants with their bum hanging out, and having to resist the overwhelming temptation to teach them a lesson and pull them down.
16, Smokers outside the hospital doors. Why do it? The Editors knew what they were talking about! *song reference*
17. Stubbing your little toe on furniture
18.The rubbish music you get whilst being put on hold mid-phone call! At least give me something good to listen to
19. People who don’t know the difference between their, there and they’re. Or your and you’re.
20. Girls (or guys) telling you their obviously fake tan is natural. Unless your parents were wotsits… that is not a natural tan!
21. People who think footballers deserve the amount they earn. They don’t. Fact.
So, there we go! I could have gone on a little longer, but that'll have to wait until my 30th birthday! Look out for the final installment coming soon from the lovely Sarah!
