Bet this was cathartic to write! Either that or it got you feeling angry all over again at each of these annoyances 😅 agreed on all fronts, and would add the not-saying-thank-you-to-a-door-holder annoyance also applies to people who don’t acknowledge drivers giving way when said driver didn’t have to do so. I literally shout “How about a thank you?!” when that happens (with my windows firmly down, of course, to avoid any chance of them actually hearing me).
We have a bus driver on our route to work who doesn’t seem to know how to brake gently - it’s like they missed that day at driver training school. The other day, my bag fell from the middle seat in the back row and my satsuma and kiwi fruit both went rolling down the aisle to the front of the bus…. that was enough to put me in a mood for the day!)
People in management positions that couldn't manage to tie their own shoelaces and frankly have no right being anywhere near other human beings.
People who drive right up your arse (even though there's a slow stream of traffic in front of you and there's clearly nowhere to go).
Groups of two or more people that walk towards you in conversation and expect you to get out of the way because THEY'RE TALKING (the amount of people I've walked straight through due to this).
I feel you on all of your points. I worry that Maryam Moshiri has particularly tiny fingers though, or maybe I have particularly big babana hands? Anyway, I hate the same people you hate. But I also hate those that I allow into my traffic lane when I don't have to, and then they don't do that little thank you wave. I also hate those people that I do the British apology thing to (ie. I didn't do anything wrong, but I am apologising anyway) and they (who did something wrong) don't apologise back.

Ooooooh yes. I would add:

Oh, and the entire conservative political party.
