What Annoys you? (Research)

Tesla don't make a small car.

People who get up from their desk to have conversations on their mobile with work colleagues and walk around the office. Mostly around our bank of desks. In a loud voice, while I am trying to work.

when someone asks a question I don't know the answer to.

That currently I want for nothing in the grand scheme of things but am still feel like I have accomplished nothing.

The Tories. Brexit. BoJo.

That I cant go back twenty years and give myself some better advice about getting on the housing ladder as early as possible instead of wasting the money i did and getting into debt.

The housing market and anyone lucky enough to be on it that doesn't thank god each day they got there.

this rant.

The cat next door - thats a pet hate.

and the screaming brat next door - thats a minor hate.

Being in bed all snuggly but my legs are TOO HOT and the duvet will never get off them just the right amount without leaving something else chilly

When you gather up a pile of washing and notice a sock left on the floor, then bend down to pick it up and something else falls out of the bundle, then you pick that and something else falls out etc etc

Fucking Bono

This is a problem that should be solved in the world's interest. Tax evading holier than though cunt.

The dying of the light

Go to a new barber, they do a brilliant job. No bullshit chit chat, perfect hair cut etc.

Go back a month later, no idea the name of who did you last time. Get someone else, they fuck it up and chat shit.

Need to find a new barber. Again.

Rage thread. No?

Poetry thread

I thought your hair was a DIY job.

Or fuckwits who say "hence why"

Cars or rather the people who are unable to drive them. Hence why I swear a lot.

The Col Collective

Barmen/maids who say "who's next?"

Because of course it is their job to serve the people they find most attractive first.

5p coins (and other small change). I'm sick and tired of fumbling away trying to grasp these tiny shiny nuggets of fuck with my clumsy chip shovel hands.

In the spirit of the OP I'll try to keep this to things which might actually have a design solution...

People insisting on using the luggage gates at the station when they don't have any luggage/a bike/a wheelchair.

"Changing villages" at swimming pools. Not just because the phrase itself is an abomination but because they're always horrible to use.

Those stupid ridged things they put in cycle paths where the ridges align with the direction of the path instead of going across it - they can get very slippy.

Noise transmission in Victorian flat conversions.

The fact it's impossible to get a drink of water on the move in the UK without resorting to plastic bottles (and basically what @pastry_bot said, the much wider issue). Not sure there's a design solution to this though because water fountains already exist, there just seems to be a national conspiracy to support the bottled water industry. I have noticed that water fountains are much more common in the U.S.

A bag I can use for everything. Going to work, going away for work for a few days, carrying sporting shit.

Rapha backpack. The bigger one. Seriously, I got one recently and it's amazing. Super well designed, makes great use of space.

Famine + 1

I'm guilty of this, too used to having a bike with me

Not knowing how much is on my oyster card and no shops around, debating whether I should wait 25 mins for a bus or just start walking.

You know you can use contactless now?
