Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

You should not be giving your dog tinned peas! https://www.purina.co.uk/articles/dogs/feeding/what-dogs-eat/can-dogs-eat-peas

Can dogs eat canned peas?​

No, it’s best to avoid giving your dog canned peas as they’re high in sodium because salt is used as a preservative. Because of this, it’s safest to stick to fresh or frozen when giving your dog peas.

I do rinse them well in cold water, though I suppose some salt could soak into the peas when canned for quite a while.

Same list as me - with added Car SOS.

It's in Purina's interest to claim that all sorts of things - which are easily avoided anyway - just 'might' be vaguely 'harmful' ...
Looking from Aldi to Waitrose with Morrisons in the middle, the supermarkets and the brands only seem to have significant salt in the cans of mushy, processed and marrowfat peas; most 'garden peas' and 'petit pois' are canned in water and have very low or no salt content. So it would seem that they're not a problem especially as you rinse them anyway.

Yesterday I went clothes shopping with a neighbour/friend. We both picked some items and headed towards the changing rooms of a well known store, but it's not really relevant, the name of the place. Ok, it was T.K. maxx. Anyway, the women doing the checking to see what you were taking in said abruptly "How many items". I said 3, my friend said 2. The shop assistant then said "Are you sure"! We both looked at her as if to say how rude, do you think we are shoplifters or something. After we'd tried the clothing on we both handed all the items back. Not only didn't they fit, but we were both annoyed by her attitude. As we walked away she said loudly "you could've put them back properly on the hangers"! As we were leaving the store I said to a younger women, who we know is a supervisor "That women on the changing rooms is a right old bag, she clearly doesn't want to be here and more or less accused us of shoplifting. I expected a "Ok, thanks for telling me, I'll have a word with her". Instead she said "Oh really!! That's my mum you're talking about"!

I agree that the fake blagging is annoying but I like what Fuzz does.

Not a problem chaps encounter, in my experience. Never been clothes shopping with a mate.
A trip to Axminster is altogether something else. Perfection would be if they served craft beer.

A dangerous place, the Axminster shop

Dangerous for your wallet, that is.

Not trivial, really. Rechargeable tools or appliances where replacement battery packs are not available.

Non replaceable rubber straps on expensive bike lights - yes, I do have Knog in mind.

Mike Brewer??

Nah
Mike Brewer is the ultimate wheeler dealer that gets amazing deals on cars
which normally means he knocks a couple of quid of the asking price and the claims he 'stole it' when the price was the retail proce and as it came from a dealer he would always get a fair bit off as there is no chance of him being able to take it back - which a normal person would if it wasn't as described

Still - I can put up with him

ALthough I would prefer it is Elvis renegotiated his contract so he doesn;t have to mention that he used to work in F1 3 times every episode!!!

The latest one has a grown-up son badgering his parents to release some equity from the house (i.e. effectively take out second mortgage) and give the money to the aforementioned offspring.

Then when they die he will be moaning that he is left nothing at all as the loan and the accrued interest has eaten up everything the owned
