Christian, Rio, Patsy and Alex unpack the dumb little things that absolutely ruin a mood: people driving tanks with mirrors the size of solar panels, colleagues who arrive late holding a takeaway coffee (for themselves!), cats who wait until the exact second you step over them to suddenly remember they have legs, and the ongoing cricket collar crisis that clearl...
