Pet hates

[springyzone]

Anything out there that annoys you?

I'll share one of my pet hates, I struck it just last night... again.

You know those recipe sites you can look up, where people leave a comment and star rating for a recipe?

I like the sites, I use them a lot and I like to have a look at the rating/comments too, to assess if a recipe is worth trying. They can be really useful.

But the comments I hate are the ones that give 5 stars and say what a fantastic recipe it is then sneakily say at the bottom, 'I just added these other 14 ingredients and halved the amount of whatever and it was perfect.'

Grr, that's not the same recipe then, is it!!

It reminds me more of this:

People who "forget" to turn off their mobile phone in a concert hall!

People who take too many selfies.

People who don't use paragraphs.

I want to know where the news websites got their stories from before TikTok? I follow a major national news website, and I would say 8-9 out of 10 stories they publish, are some garbage story with "such and such on TikTok posted this whatever, that has now had over 1 million views.........blah blah blah".  It's easy to say not to click on the story, but the headline is click bait, but you don't realise until after you've clicked. Drives me absolutely insane!

OH, and don't get me started on terms like "shopping hacks" or "mummy bloggers". Like, seriously? (yes, I used the word like on purpose because of early mention of it's overuse).

“On trend”.

”Incentivizing.”

”Your call is important to us.”

😮I must not have peg OCD. 

I do try to hang them by toe but I don't care about direction or peg colour and sometimes there are odd socks so I just hang them anyway and put the partner next to them if I come across them in that load.

I used to iron just about everything. My daughters are the opposite and iron nothing and I have now become a lot more relaxed about ironing. I just fold and put away almost everything now. Occasionally I have to iron but I don't have any 1 or 2 hour sessions any more.
