Things that make you irrationally angry

[Anonymous]

Orthodox Christians who have an air of superiority because they observe Easter on a different date than everyone else.

Usually I just take the path of least resistance and I continue with my patient self, and people are grateful. It buys me goodwill for when I need favors.

When reading these threads (they crop up once in a while, pet peeves and whatnot), I marvel at how angry some of you get on a regular basis.

Sanctimommy but it's a rational anger.

People that take a bathroom stall right next to me in a bathroom with plenty of open stalls. Sometimes totally empty. Give me some room. For the person out there gearing up to rush in and post a silly lecture, spare me. I know it's irrational, that's the topic.

People that don't walk on the people movers at the airport. They just...stand there.

(when they aren't standing to the right, that is a rational annoyance).

People farting in front of me while shopping or dining out.
Doctors bragging about their 25+ years of practicing but don’t have an answer to my questions, ignore borderline lab results or slightly above the normal range.
School adm minimizing the dead thread of a kid who happens to be the snowflake of donors.
Neighbors letting their dogs poop on my flower beds.
I could go on.

lol, I knew it wouldn’t take long for the holier than thou poster to show up. This thread is not for you, move along now!

Well no, as I explained, it's a brain difference, not a moral superiority. Not anything I can control. And you knew that, but wanted to get a little dig in. Be my guest, I don't mind!

Yes. Sometimes my DH says he's going to bed before I'm ready to go, and so I'll put on something I know he doesn't want to watch on TV. Like some romcom or reality show, which he hates. But then he just... won't go. He'll sit there watching whatever it is with me, sometimes vocally complaining about it, and not going to bed. It drives me crazy! I'll tell him if he's going to stay out in the living room he can't criticize what I'm watching, and he'll be quiet, but it will still annoy me he's there. I normally love his company but there's something about this specific situation that just makes me want to tell him to GTFO. I just want some alone time.

People who don't walk to the right on the sidewalk.

And most dog owners.
