Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

Only if you have bought from them.

Amazon & Ebay - stop showing me alternative recommendations for something I've just purchased. Why would I want to buy a pair of headphones (or whatever) when I bought some a couple of weeks ago?

'scuse my muddled thinking, but if one looking after a dog, then taking it for a daily wander is part and parcel of pet ownership , not farm it out to others, for a 15 minute trot around the block not going to do much for the mutts mental state, they are pack animals, be it a silly 'handbag pooch' or a monstrous junk yard. Hound ,they need more exercise than being dragged around the block.
That's why we have many bad tempered dogs.
I am not a dog owner, as I'm not prepared to be tied down by pet ownership, and being a former 'Postie' I can testify to the mood swings of cooped up mutts,
I might add I used to take the family dog out with me on my rounds, Much against the work rules)

Oh, and while editing that paragraph, another annoyance made itself obvious - the keyboard does not have a delete key. It is annoying to have to move the cursor right and then use backspace to delete back to where I started from.

It is possible that the function key (if there is one) + backspace has the effect of a delete key. That is how my Mac keyboard works, and it is a possibility yours works similarly.

I imagine they'd be fairly happy to show you headphone adverts anyway, to see if they could trigger buyer's remorse and make you think you'd have got a better deal if you'd shopped with them instead of the competition. It's an industry that thrives on making you feel bad about yourself and your life choices.
