Do you have an irrational fear of something? If so, you are in good company as we take a look at 21 harmless things people get annoyed with for no reason.
Pineapple On Pizza
Pineapple is one of the most controversial food pairings so, while some people cannot get enough of this fruity combo some people are very vocal about their hatred for it. Why can’t people just agree to disagree and move quietly on to the salami pizza?
Mimes
Some people find miming and clowns really fun and engaging and others cannot think of any worse form of entertainment.
Actors Who Played Dislikable Characters
If you will never forgive Meryl Streep for her actions as Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada or you hate David Schwimmer for that time Ross and Rachel were on a break, you may be overreacting and ever so slightly irrational.
Black Cats
There are a lot of people who believe that cats are bad luck and are associated with witches and all things dark. However, in some cultures, they are a symbol of prosperity, and therefore any fear of them is irrational.
Men Liking ‘Feminine’ Things
There is so much toxic masculinity in the works that some people think that the sight of a boy playing with a Barbie is the worst thing that can ever happen, which is ridiculous.
The Word ‘Moist’
Some people will use every word under the sun just to avoid saying the word ‘moist.’ While there may be an element of cringe using this word, surely it is not bad?
Cosplay
While a bit of fancy dress at Halloween and birthday parties are ok, full-on Cosplay and LARPing are taking things a step too far, according to some people.
Emojis
According to some people, emojis are just for boomers and Gen X who are not cool enough to know who to chat with on online communities. Put that thumbs up away, people!
Cargo Pants
Many people hate cargo pants and just cannot see the absolute practicality of having a pocket for everything!
Liking Things Made For Younger People
There shouldn’t be a problem if an adult woman wants to buy a Build-A-Bear but apparently, this is frowned upon by some people, as are adults queuing up for the latest Disney ride with no child in sight.
Beans In Chili
Getting freaked out by beans in a chili seems fairly common but this doesn’t make sense as it seems the same as having chocolate cake without the chocolate.
Toby From The Office
Some Office fans could not stand Toby from the off and people thought this was dumb, however, as it turned out he did get a little whiny towards the end.
Mint Choc Chip Ice Cream
The ice cream that seriously divides opinion! Loathers of mint choc chip ice cream cannot face the thought of eating a dessert that tastes like toothpaste.
Raisin Cookies
When people give oatmeal raisin cookies a chance they will find they are very tasty but they are often hated simply because people mistake them for their beloved chocolate chip cookies.
Nuclear Power
While nuclear power is deemed safer and cleaner than coal, there is a lot of outcry about the use of nuclear power. While there are negative aspects of nuclear energy, there is a call for people to be educated on exactly what it entails before dismissing it completely.
Splitting The Bill At Dinner
If you are one of those people who are outraged by people working out to the nearest cent how much they owe at a group meal you are not on your own. Just split the bill equally already!
Your Mom Being On Social Media
Some kids find it cute when their parents join social media, but for others, it is cringeworthy, especially when they give themselves names like ‘Soccer Mom’ or ‘Mum of 5’.
People Rushing To Get Off A Flight First
The plane has just hit the ground and people are racing out of their seats, scrambling to the overhead lockers, and moving to the aisle only to wait 15 minutes for the stairs to arrive. Just stay seated and enjoy being comfortable a little longer.
People Who Stand On Moving Walking At Airports
It seems airport activity winds a lot of people up as some cannot stand to see people standing still on a moving walkway. Just hurry up already.
Checking In At The Hospital On Facebook
If you are going to update your status to gain sympathy, at least tell the whole story and not reply “I’ll DM” you to every one of your friends.
Ads That Are Longer Than Videos
We have to agree that it is so frustrating to watch a 30-second ad when the video you are watching is only 20 seconds long. Highly annoying.
