I'm sure it's come up multiple times over 147 pages, but it's pissed me off again this morning.
My bloody wife clearly steers into the kerb to see if she's parked close enough to it, shaving metal from the rim of the wheel every time she parks!!
Each time I mention it I got a nod of the head and agreement that she'll stop doing it, but I know it goes in one ear and out the other because it just doesn't register on her list of things she should care about.
If it was her car I wouldn't be too bothered, if she wants to drive round in something with shagged wheels who am I to care. But no, her car blew up at the weekend so now she's wrecking OUR family wagon!
Get the wheel refurbed and leave the receipt where she will find it. Repeat every time she does it. My bloody wife clearly steers into the kerb to see if she's parked close enough to it, shaving metal from the rim of the wheel every time she parks!!

My annoyance, wifey keeps telling me to turn off lights, it used to be the reverse, so I eventually bought led bulbs for the entire house so stopped saying it and leave them on myself now.
Looking through some car ads, the thing that annoys me is when some arrogant idiot puts in the ad something like " in the best colour/combo"
Just because they like it, what makes them think everyone else thinks its the best choice?
Browsing some ads earlier, I see a Merc in black with red leather interior. Owner thinks this was the best colour with the best interior. I thought it was hideous.

Footballers.
They spit and fall over a lot. And are not really good value for money. If I'd paid mega millions for something I'd expect a lot more I reckon. They are annoying beyond belief
Given the amount of money in football and the amount of people willing to pay a hefty premium for club ownership, TV rights, match tickets, sponsorships etc etc, in what respect are footballers - those that actually make all this money sloshing about in the game possible - not value for money?They spit and fall over a lot. And are not really good value for money. If I'd paid mega millions for something I'd expect a lot more I reckon. They are annoying beyond belief
Snails. Specifically the way that, at the first sign of rain, they all come and stand in random positions on the pavement while I'm trying to walk along it. I can avoid most of them, then there's a shadow and ... crunch. Sorry Mr Snail, and now I've got to find somewhere to wipe the bits out of the treads of my shoes.

Sainsburys. For apparently deciding that summer is over, and therefore not stocking any charcoal.
I have seen people BBQing in the snow. I assume they anticipate not being able to buy charcoal in December and buy charcoal when it is available and store it.Takeaway deliveries in polystyrene boxes that come inside tied plastic bags 
. Yes it may help to keep the food hot but it also produces about 2 litres of condensation inside the box which means you have to wring out your burger and chips before you can eat the mush that you're left with. The same applies when you buy take-out fish n chips as well, they usually like to put them in a plastic bag for you which has the same effect. I'm sure there must be better ways of doing this without ruining the food.
