How about Aluminium foil? You pull out the length you want from a new roll, go to tear it off against the serrated strip, and the whole bloody lot collapses and the roll skedaddles across the kitchen floor, undoing itself as it goes and crumpling, so you have no chance at all of re-rolling the damn thing for further use... Merde!
Similar things happen when attempting to tear off a bin-bag from a roll - you locate where the perforated bit is, and try to start the tear, and it just rips the entire shooting match out of your palsied grip, and - yes - has it away across the tiling... Drat!

I never use the saw edge. Bloody thing cuts your hands. I just hold the foil and tear!

One of the (many) things that piss me off is the phone call on my mobile.
'Please listen carefully. We understand you were involved in a no fault of your own accident within the last three years........'
No I effing well have not been, nor do I have any problems with PEP's. And my double glazing is only a few years old.
Grrrrrr!

Jim is dead.
What pisses me off is the use of the, 'avoid' the word dead' expressions. like
Jim passed on.
and even worse
We've lost Jim.

He kicked the bucket, snuffed it, expired, bought it, fell off the perch, is pushing up the daisies, met his maker, crossed the great divide, gave up the ghost, turned up his toes, cashed in his chips, checked out, headed for the happy hunting ground, sleeping the big sleep, bit the dust, croaked, took his last breath, joined the great majority, taken the final curtain, etc etc.
Damn, he doesn't seem to have a pulse.
