-People turning up at the cinema / theatre 20 minutes into the show.
-People who rustle bags and wrappers in said places
-People who can't go a 35 minute flight without alcohol
-People who pull away and start driving off before putting their seatbelt on (I personally think this is dangerous, so not quite trivial, but thought I'd add it anyway as it really pisses me off).

All of these especially the BIB, to which I would add, people who can't sit still for 5 minutes on short-haul flights but spend the entire time wandering aimlessly up and down the aisle, usually when the crew are trying to serve food and drink. If you're worried about DVT, do what I do - wear the socks and stay put.
There is a girl who is pregnant at work, and she thinks that's an excuse for her to sit round and do very little all day... only 3 months gone. I would rather you go and sit and do nothing at home to be fair.
Establishments and train companies banning e-cigs.
I was vaping on an FCC train yesterday, only to find out in the latest timetable I picked up saying it wasn't allowed. Nobody paid a blind bit of notice, while I was vaping on the train, but I'm willing to bet if I had sparked up a normal ciggie, people would have complained.
So, if they are going to ban e-cigs, then they should ban things like aftershaves, perfumes and deodorants, as they often smell a lot more than e-cigs. Besides, there are no e-cigs allowed signs inside the carriages, only no smoking signs, and vaping is not the same as smoking, as you don't emit that cigarette smell. Another thing is that smoking is banned at FCC stations, but vaping it seems isn't, as I was vaping in full view of CCTV and train staff were walking around, yet nobody said anything.
If somebody, train staff or otherwise, had approached me, I would have pointed to a no smoking sign which shows a normal cigarette and say there is no sign saying e-cigs are not allowed.
That reminds me - people who think train carriages are beauty salons. The woman sat behind me on the train yesterday sprayed half a can of hair spray, got knows how much perfume/deodorant, and then started painting her nails. The smell was awful.
When people can't shut up when the TV is on. Every time I visit my parents house and they put the telly on they wont shut up talking and just insist on rabbiting all over it. More often than not they aren't even talking about the programme and I feel like saying, 'Why don't you turn the bloody thing off.' They seem to have the tv on droning constantly in the background when they're not even watching it.
Yes! This drives me up the wall. If people come round I turn the thing off.

BIB - This is exactly why my Mum always rips the sweets bag for me and obv hers (if we don't have popcorn) so we don't annoy others :D
Not being able to find stuff you know you have but somehow got moved from where you last remember seeing it
I long for the time someone brings out cheap and tiny and accurate localized GPS trackers. I will stick them all over my stuff and when the "look I just had the darn thing, now where the frak is it?" happens I can simply boot up my phone ap and "bingo" and it's found.
Tattoos – I really do hate them, especially on women. I kind of accept that many men are stupid, but it seems deeply sad when I see women disfigured by them, especially those stupid ones on their feet.
I hate them. They have their place on ex-services people as a lot of them have details of their regiment etc. That's a tradition. But that's all. Im sick of seeing tattood male and female morons everywhere, covered in crap.They are not sexy either they are a f"""""" turnoff.A mate of mine had a family member die. ... so he went out and got a huge tattoo of the family members face bunged all down his back. I think it really is mental instability.
Dropping my prescription off at the Tesco chemist, being told it'll take 15 mins, so I say it's not a bother, I'm shopping anyway, then I do my shopping, walk half way home and realise I didn't go back for the meds. D'oh!
I then have to struggle back with the shopping, explain to the security guy why I was wandering in with several Tesco bags, collect the meds and come home again. Seeing as I took it there to save going to different places, I was proper irritated with myself.
^reminds me of the time I went to Tescos cos I felt in the need of some home fried fish and chips only to find myself 1/2 way home before I realised I'd forgotten to buy any darn oil - doh-z-doh!!. Too far to consider a return so I said a big fooey to my fried meal treat and slulked(?) home and had some toast.
Time before I was home before realising I'd not bought any kitchen towel. Ended up patting the fish and chips dry of excess oil using sheets of quilted Andrex toilet tissue which felt kinda weird.

Wish granted.

Edit: not so cheap, really, but look at this list - especially number 10!
yup too big, wanting size of a grain of rice dammit stick 'em on me scissors, me pens, my darn phone and put one inside each of my moving-boxes.... maybe there's a place you can rent a big box of 'em for just such an occasion - goes off to google.

I get your point. They have multiple uses, by the way - someone said on a review that they'd stick one on their cat!
Anyway, give it a few years and they'll be microscopic, I reckon (the gizmos, not the cat).
The way our neighbour stares in our window when reversing her car out of her driveway or when walking past with her dog.
She regularly slams doors too.

People who make jokes about abuse and rape. Not funny and demeans those who have genuine experiences of abuse. Pisses me right off.
Probably not trivial at all but meh.
I feel the same about jokes about Oscat Pistorious and Reeva Steenkamp.
