What in general life annoys you to death?

What in life pisses you off so much it just makes you crazy?

Simple tell us all about it.

When I first got a car you had to keep track of how much break wear you had and when your pads got low you either got someone to change them or you did it yourself.
Simple.
Today's breaks have clips on them that alerts you to when your pads are running out even if it is a bit early.
Like 1/2 of the pad left.
Last night when taking Mr13 home the front left started to squeal.
I had to get dad to dive the Mrs to work today so I could look at it.
Pads start with about 6 or 7mm of pad and wear down as you break.
But seriously the pads in the Mrs car still had 3mm left.
So I had to take out the pad and clip grind a little bit (about 1mm) off the clip and put it back.
You would think this was easy, yes? Well no. One of the bolts to the calliper wouldn't undo.
2 hours off and on waiting to WD-40 to penetrate to get it off.

Now before you all have a go at me about safety I intend changing the break pads next week on my time and I get a new clip with the new set of pads.
So all is good but there has to be a better way than a clip that grinds against the disc creating an almighty racket while you drive.

And anyway it's raining today and I wasn't going to get totally wet when there is plenty of pad left.

So what pisses you off in general life?

It’s not objects or even situations that most get on my nerves, but people’s attitudes. I can be in perfect peace and happiness, till I meet some blockheaded idiot who only understands his own interests, and talks and does all sorts of nonsense to promote them.

Probably the most striking example that annoys me is someone who tries all dishonorable ruses so as not to honor an agreement he has entered into. Consequently, when I’m about to enter a contract or major agreement, my first consideration are not the financial or technical terms but how it can be ensured that he’ll stick to them. It’s not so much what you agree, but whom you agree it with.

People that like to push their own barrow and beat their chest about everything that's happened in their life, as if they are the only one's of any importance.

People who roll through stop signs as if they were the only ones on the road. It's like they have this attitude that says" I am the only important person using this road and everyone else needs to just get the hell out of my way." It's times like that when I wish I had a phaser rifle mounted on the top of my car - they would be nothing but their constituent atoms in no time flat. Barring invention and sale to the public of phaser rifles, I like to get in front and come to a FULL stop when assholes like that are behind me because I KNOW it pisses them off when they also have to stop to keep from hitting me in the rear.
