Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

If I might add some balance - our Canon MG7150 printer has worked flawlessly over wifi - printing from my work laptop (W10) and from various Apple devices by Airprint, all over the WLAN rather than through direct connection. Scanning too.

I used to have a wireless printer and it worked fine - however someone down the road has one that fires up occaisionally and tends to pick wireless channels that it should not be using - and has quite a long range
which is annoying

Just be careful what photos you're sending to it ...

I’ve just sprayed some Sure deodorant in my face. It had a weird locking mechanism on the head that only seemed to unlock when it was pointing at my face. If the can contained Novichok then I could see the need for a locking mechanism. But, despite frequent rides to Salisbury I’m reasonably sure the can just contains deodorant. There is no need for a locking mechanism.

My eyeballs smell great though.

Just heard on the radio, a reporter say "the government has urged passengers not to travel". Surely you only become a passenger if/when you do travel?🤔 If you follow this government advice and do not travel then you aren't a passenger?🤔

Almost as pointless as saying "we urge government officials not to have parties."

Not really... I was going to travel today but listened to the warnings and postponed my journey.

(I called in at the station this afternoon to pick up a copy of the Metro and the electronic sign there was showing lots of train cancellations and delays, so I would say that it was a very useful warning!)

I did say "almost..." but... yes, I see the point.

Naming weather. Not realising cause and effect. Being so risk averse that the fun is sucked out of so many exciting things.

Pop-ups offering me apps/extensions that will transform my humdrum existence, with buttons for Yes, and Not Now. But not for No, and don't ask me again because I won't change my mind and it will only irritate me to an extent that is itself unsettling.

Modern life in general.

Tw-ts who park on the grass verges on our local roads, especially in this wet weather, and they are left rutted and unsightly.

It is very annoying when watching something on catch up TV, you can speed up the program but you can't speed up the adverts.
