I sometimes watch Salvage Hunters on quest. For some reason I feel this rage build up when the trevento wine advert comes on at the start and ad breaks. A group of ****y blokes lauding each other for the challenges they faced in their hobbies(?).
Doesn't make me drink the wine as much as put a bottle through the TV.
Anyone else experience irrational rage?

Watching Countdown and when they pick the letters, they have 4 crappy consonants and 4 vowels. It's plainly obvious they need another consonant as the other 4 are pants but nope they choose a vowel and end up with a 4 letter word, ****ing eejits.

I'm just an angry angry person full stop....I'm sitting at the airport just now and waiting for my beer, the wee lassies are making coffee and I'm angry that someone has the audacity to walk in and ask for a friggin coffee that takes maybe 1 min to make and not get an easily poured pint.
Oooooo the nerve!"You opened the box....and your soul belongs to me...."

When someone takes the minus offer on the chase then ends up winning a share of the money. Usually they don’t answer any in the final chase either. Totally ruins my day when it happens.

When contestants on Eggheads look at the three possible answers and say it’s not answer 1 or answer 2, it’s answer 3. You weren’t asked what the answer isn’t, just give us the correct answer. It is funny though when they confidently rule out an option and it’s the right answer.

Another quiz one.
When people don't listen to a question properly and get an answer they obviously know the answer to wrong. As an exanple:
'The River Seine flows through the capital of which European country?'
'Paris'

Anyway, that brings me to my irrational rage subject - putting rubbish in to fill the time allotted to TV programmes. You see it on Football Focus when you get the initial intro, then a montage - usually with a barely relevant piece of music over the top - then 15 minutes in you'll get a similar montage, then they'll tell you what's coming up even though they've already told you twice before. The actual meat of the programme could be reduced to half the time.
Oh, and using the same pictures over and over again - particularly true of Channel 5 documentaries. I actually started counting them on one and got to 32 in an hour long show despite only starting after the first four or five. I know that's a bit sad, but you have to nurse your wrath to keep it warm.

I get irrational rage about how difficult it can be to arrange the most simple of events. I got a ticking off earlier on today from Mrs Smartie for losing the plot trying to arrange to meet my Dad and her Dad (2 retired gentlemen) to have a cup of tea and discuss a fairly pressing business matter.
I gave up when it all looked like falling apart over a dog's bowel habits, their steadfast refusal to contact one another (instead leaving me to mediate, me who has no commitments whatsoever) and my partner adding about 60 conditions to the deal determining whether or not she would come with me, whether I could take the car, whether I should eat before I go etc etc.
She took my phone off me and sorted it in about 30 seconds.
My every day at work is the same, with people who cannot make appointments around their diaries.

Any time that sometime replies to a statement or answers a question when they've completely missed the point. This happens a lot in football punditry.
Q - that winning goal had more than a hint of offside about it but was the full back playing everyone on when the ball was played?
A - the rules are so clear now that level means onside and the striker is definitely interfering with play.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

I find it infuriating too, particularly when the question is one I'd actually like some "professional" insight in relation to, rather than the clichéd questions that some presenters rely on. It's got to the point where I'll judge by the presenter and the panel whether it's worth watching the HT/FT analysis.

It's around this time of year I hate travelling on buses through the town. People standing waiting until the bus comes before getting on and raking through their bag looking for change or their bus pass. Have it ready ffs. Had about 4 or 5 Americans getting on the 42 the other day. Fair came to £10.40. They only had a £10 note and £1 coin and asked if anyone had change of 40p for the sake of losing 60p. I was seething inside.

There was an announcement last year it was going to be rolled out but it's been radio silence since.

It just seems mental in the 21st century as we become and increasingly cashless society our local bus service has no contactless facilities available or even a top up system similar to the Oyster card.

I’m developing an irrational rage about the way Professor Brian Cox says the word kilometre. I’ve recorded his new show The Planets and it’s getting to the stage that I miss a lot of what he’s saying because I’m thinking why he keeps pronouncing it that way.

As a former waiter, I get a bit of a rage when watching something like Masterchef when they're cooking for finalists/critics etc and they only carry 2 plates through then come back for the third! A 3 plate carry is not difficult! You're on the clock and this would save you some time arsing about
Totally irrational as the wife keeps telling me but I can't help it!

That’s another rage of mine. Not getting on the bus when it is “full”. The amount of times it happens where let’s say 6 people get off the bus but the driver only allows 4 people on is unreal. Recently there were 3 of us at the stop arguing with the driver who said the bus was full... we could clearly see at least 5 empty seats with only 3 people standing.
