Things that get your goat, but really shouldn't...

What are those things that are really so insignificant in the scheme of life, grand or otherwise that really get on your nerves?
For example, one for me is when the bloody kids cross-contaminate something like the marmite jar by using the same knife that they used to butter their toast with! Grrr...
I also have to have my pens / pencils in 'rainbow' order. One of my colleagues knows this and frequently 'kindly' re-arranges them for me when I'm away from my desk.
So, what are yours?

I work in catering and staff are always turning up without a pen. You wouldn't call out the AA and expect them to borrow your own tools would you?
ARGHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!

Heh, brilliant!
Another one from me - the smell of catfood! <Yark!>
Fruit Machines that Kill you 2nd press.
Played a Money Spider on Friday that did that twice, without offering me a single win. Money bag shot straight to Game Over. (Did get a £35 cashpot from the middle and a £3 and £4 repeat (red) shortly after, but there's no need for this non-playability, surely?

F%&kers on bikes in pedestrian areas. I walk straight at them often getting abuse. Have been threatened with a knife before by some skaghead.

Ah, now that is also annoying! Especially if the other rolls are stored um, elsewhere!
Another annoyance - my next door neighbour (raging alcopop, is she!) leaving her TV on ALL night, really loud and her bedroom window wide open. It all goes out of proportion in that sleepy haze - I fall asleep dreaming of ways to shut her up. Hand grenade through the window, firebombing the local off licence, that sort of thing...
Of course, a kindly request would probably work but apparently, that's been tried before...
