The thing that annoys me about my husband the most is that he never completely removes the plastic wrap from sour cream, yoghurt or ice cream containers. I will open the ice cream, and there's this piece of plastic, flapping away. I have questioned him as to why he does not remove the plastic or foil after he has unsealed the food. He says, to give it a better seal.
I am pretty sure, after you have opened the food, this layer of "protection" is meant to be removed. It does not increase the seal, after it is open. In fact, it probably lessens the seal on the lid. He is probably too lazy to completely remove the foil or plastic. Often, these containers are opened downstairs in front of the TV, far from the kitchen garbage.
I know the thing that annoys my husband most about me is that I will not empty the dish rack before I start doing dishes. Because of this, I will put freshly washed dishes on top of the dry dishes. When he is trying to empty the rack, the stuff underneath is wet again because I keep adding dripping, clean dishes to the pile.
This might be viewed as laziness on my part, as well. However, often it is because I start cleaning up, and then realize I should have emptied the rack. It is more an oversight, and an eagerness to not have dirty dishes, than laziness. Once I have started, my hands are already wet, and I am in cleaning mode. I just continue to precariously balance dishes on top of each other in the dish rack.
Occasionally, I empty the dish rack. We do dishes so often it is hard to notice if the rack has been emptied. My husband never completely removes the plastic. If I end up using the food container after he has already opened it, I will be the one to remove the plastic, or foil. When he starts removing the seal and throwing it out, I will start emptying the dish rack regularly. Until then, we will continue to tick each other off with our annoying habits.
