minor things that make you fume

A bench in a public park near us has, for some two years now, been used as a sort of shrine by a local family to one of their own. Every so often a new pot plant or bunch of flowers is placed beside it, along with little trinkets and clay animals etc.
You don't like to use it somehow. Plenty other benches available I suppose.
But it's a bit selfish, is it not?

Same near me however the infection spread and a row of them were similarly "decorated". Fortunately the park staff have removed most of the tat to allow people to sit down ie the purpose of the bench in the first place.

There’s a park bench in Sefton that has old Dyson parts, diet tomatoes and a bag of weed by the side of it
 
How temperamental induction hobs are if they get slightly wet, and how difficult they are to then turn on again once they've turned themselves off!

Turn them off at the wall, dry it off, back on at the wall, then away you go*

*depends if it's magnetic induction or 'heat' induction in that case results may vary
 
What so annoys me is in tv shows, when the actors are drinking take away coffee the cup is so obviously empty.

Now I get why having hot coffee would be a bad idea but at least fill them half full of water so the actors can realistically drink from a cup with something in. Seems so basic.

Then they set their 'coffee' down while they crack on with their house/office move which consists of lifting clearly empty boxes and setting them down 1 or 2 yards away.
 
Peaky blinders. Which is odd as I like nearly every actor in it and didn't mind the first 2/3 seasons. Possibly it's the angle of the hats or its cultural importance to the kind of person who goes to ladies day that annoys me.
I remember about 2 series in I hadn't yet watched it but was definitely going to.

Then we went on a night out which involved meeting up in some place round the Baltic Triangle. The cosplaying try-hards put me right off watching it.
 
I rent my garage off the local council, last year it was costing me just over £50 a month, received a letter this morning telling me the rates are going up for 2026-27…. I knew it would go up but …. The new rate is £68 a month…. Almost an £18 a month rise…. That’s ridiculous

The following is not a word-for-word account of Offord’s joke. We have confirmed the gist of the joke with Reform UK and believe it is reflected accurately.

Fadi Fawaz, George Michael’s partner at the time of his death, takes the late singer’s ashes to a curry house after his death. Fawaz asks the chef to make a curry with the ashes. When asked why, Fawaz replies: “I want to feel him oozing out of my arse one last time.”
[/SPOILER]

reform scotland are standing by this pig offord. for balance, he made a donation to an lgbt rugby club to say his sorry's at the time.

If these twits* are prepared to be so offensive in public, what are they like in the crypt back at hq around one another?
