JIN MOUSA Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Today I fully accepted the fact that I just hate going to the bank. It doesn't matter which bank or which branch, walking in the door makes me angry. In fact, if I could choose, I'd rather go to the gynecologist than the bank. As far as I can tell, there's not really a rational reason for this. Sure, it feels like a waste of my time, but there are plenty of required life things that fit that description. And no, the customer service often isn't great, but same as above. Anyone else have something they irrationally hate? Or is it just me?

MommyLiberty5013 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I hate shaving my legs. Loath it. But I do it anyway. It's not hard or painful. Just hate it. I hate car maintenance. Just routine stuff, ugh. DH is like, "NBD." But I see stopping my life for car appointments as a huge drawback. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

creekland Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Snakes. They're my number one. I like pretty much everything else in nature (not counting mosquitoes, other biting insects, or farm varmints) - even help spiders when I can - but I can't stand snakes. Nothing is rational about it, but such is life. Two of my boys inherited it from me. The third likes them. If it weren't for other aspects of his life, I'd be suspicious that he was switched at birth. I also don't like Dr appts, but that, to me, is rational according to my nature. I like being in control - so do they - natural clash when things don't go as I think they should, esp since it's my body and all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spryte Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) Contractors in my house. Incompetent contractors with poor communication skills. Grrrrrrr. ETA: by poor communication skills I mean not returning calls, communicating when they will be dropping in unannounced, and walking into my kitchen without knocking or announcing themselves. In no way is there a language barrier, and I just realized my post could have been read that way. This is more like discourteous, poor manners.

Guest Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Fruit stickers YES. And the plastic labels on clothes.

BarbecueMom Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) When you reach for something on the top shelf of a cabinet and it just spins around until it moves far enough away that you can barely touch it with your fingers. Infuriating. And no I will not just go get a step stool the first time. That's what makes it irrational.

EKS Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I hate it when people don't use the Oxford comma. A lot. Which means that every time I read a newspaper or magazine article there are little bursts of hate as my eyes linger on the places where commas should be and aren't.

AnnE-girl Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 #newlyweds #ournamessquishedtogether #luckiestgirlintheworld Every single overly posed "candid" selfie of everything this girl from high school and her husband do and post on Facebook. She's also an actress, so I think part of all the hashtags is building her brand for any followers. That just annoys me more. Also "squad goals" and "relationship goals."

Ananda Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Soft touch. People these days tell children to touch softly. No, eww! It makes me feel so gross. Firm touch only please. Or better yet, no touch. When things come out of the dishwasher dirty. A fork with crud stuck to after going through the dishwasher is much worse than a dirty fork. I agree with pp: talking on the phone & call-in radio. I would extended that to interview situation where one person is being stupid instead of trying to provide genuine dialogue. I'm quirky, I have a bunch. I'm vegetarian, when something that is otherwise vegetarian has some small amount of meat added like bacon bits. So I can't eat it. *cough* my mother *cough* When people offer my children food they can't have. Then I have to be a meany and say "no, actually they can't have chocolate milk with their meal" and my kids cry. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emba Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I don't feel that way about banks, but about doctor's appointments, yes. I can't say I'd rather go to the gynecologist, though, because that's a doctor, too. I hate hospitals, too, but for far more rational reasons, in my mind. I've never had anything terrible happen at a doctor's appointment, but have had several bad experiences in hospitals. They're not places most people visit for fun. I also hate eating noises with a passion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate that SO much. Yet it happens practically every day. Related hate: when I have fixed the dinner and the people lolly-gag in when they get around to it. It's like they can't arrive at the table until the very moment the food is ready. That always makes me feel like the hired help. Sometimes I even say, "Your dinner is served, Master." Similar one DH asks me daily, "What's on the agenda for the day?" Like I have to report exactly what I'm doing. I'm vague every time, but he'll ask me again tomorrow. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Weeds. The sound of sniffing. Weeds...there's this whole strange interaction with our garden that happens every year. DH always overplants. I would only plant my boxes, but DH must have his rows of potatoes. But the weeds get so insane in those rows, it looks like we *planted* Johnson Grass and thistles. By then, DH isn't invested in his darn potatoes anymore. So, the resident perfectionist is out there, pulling three foot weeds... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
