What are some small things that really, really irk you in this game? Leaving aside the obvious ones like not getting loot, lagging, /spat on, rage whispered or corpse camped.
For me:
When I’m on my rogue and a DH blade dances my kidney shot. I get SO pissed off
When someone spams their ADADADAD in PvP and keeps twitching around in front of you
When I can’t find an objective for a quest even though it is right there in front of me on the map. I walk around for 20 minutes and can not find it.
Cluttered bag space. I need all the gear in my bag for off spec sets but then Ihave absolutely 0 space for anything else.
When I’m stuck killing a mob next to a quest objective that needs to be picked up or rescued and some schmuck swoops past me and takes it.

i decided to get into pvp when bfa started
ignoring the wonky balance, the honor levels are really unrewarding
im only honor level 10 and its hard to keep going
classes already feel kinda boring to play, but with rewards being every 5 levels, and my one goal of getting legion pvp artifacts being at level 30, 50, and 100, it feels like it’s gonna take forever and feel draining

We were just talking about this in another thread: RP talking in raids that can’t be skipped.
Also…
SOMETHING HAS SPOOKED ONE OF DE BRUTOSAURS, SENDING IT INTO A PANIC. DIS CHAOS IS DE LAST THING DE CITY NEEDS. HELP DE MERCHANTS BY RESCUEING DE CARGO BEFORE YOU GET STOMPED ON!
Every. Time. I. Log. On. An. Alt. Just kill me now.
Edit 2: The phrase “gate keep(ers).”

dont worry people that were level 25 honor in legion got really rekt back when the “new” hamster wheel grind showed… they only got 125 levels when they already got most of the rewards before.
the honor grind is just garbage anyway… it’s for bots, exploiters or people with 50 characters ready spaming epic bg quests every season.
Dungeon world quests where the objective is not clear and there is no useful information except on wowhead

When people park their mounts on mailboxes.
When your mounted running through a pack of mobs, and they dismount you and daze you to 50% movement speed.
All the minor things you mentioned
Cluttered bags
When staves and staffs and back weapons are not centered around me your back, I want to flip a table over.
Armor floating like shoulders.
WHEN A MINING NODE OR CHEST PHASES OUT WHEN IM HALF A SECOND AWAY TO OPENING IT THIS HAPPENED THE OTHER DAY
and mostly, non-troll players are my biggest pet peeve. TROLL MASTER RACE! DARKSPEAR NEVER DIE! ZANDALAR FOREVER!
it sucks so much cause the appearances are great, but ill be playing for months before i get the next color
Guns, switches, latches. There’s also bow triggers.
that just looks like the potty dance to me… i’m always like: “if you gotta go, just go.”
One Inch walls bug me more than anything. walking along, maybe auto running, a totally flat surface it seems… and you get stuck on nothing. or corners that jut out past their visible architecture; obstacles that have an invisible boundary that extends a yard around them, so you get shoved to the side as you pass, etc.
one inch walls are the random lego on the floor at night of barefoot azeroth.

The RP talking in raids and instances. I have been here before. I have heard that speech. We both know how this is going to end. Shut up Kael’Thalas and just DIE already. Stupid ashes… And you, Svala Sorrowgrave. Shut up… Ugh I am already at Skadi by the time you get done with your speech.
I don’t mind seeing the RP stuff, but let us skip it after the first or second time through there. I think DBM skips the Lich king cinematic now.

People who macro Emotes to their attacks.
Tanks running out of range when I’m mid heal. (Any inconsiderate Tank behaviour! If I’m on a low level Healer, and I’m drinking, and the tank runs off and pulls… sigh. Watch your Healer!)
Guild, pet or character names alluding to sexual assault or abuse.
Any disarray of my bags or resources. Everything has a place and should be IN it’s place! I spend a lot of time with my 12 Bankers organising everything so I always know who carries what, and I always have mats to make what I need.
Otherwise I’m pretty laid back. I don’t like /spit, I mute ugly conversations, I ignore people who are aggressive and confrontational.

When there is a 10 second doom cast, my interupt is on CD because I already stopped a key cast and no one else can take their face off the keyboard to stop dpsing for 1 second.

My bank(s) to be cluttered and unorganized.
My bars, which guiltily I sometimes put off the wall toys/pets on for w/e reason, and then log off to log back on the next day and go - WTF?! - to be cluttered.
That I couldn’t care less about PvP anymore, but so many ppl I talk to seem to have found a rekindled like for it, but my drive to get back into it is Z E R O.
The fact when other ppl come running up to me while I’m on my yak, then get mad at me b/c I didn’t wait for THEM to finish w/e it was they were doing. roflmao
Agree w/Miriel with one of theirs Macroing Emotes to their attacks.

There used to be an addon that you could set up with a custom emote /s thing. You could set it to be like one of three things and even make it so you would only do it like once every… 10 times you used that ability. I wish I knew what that addon was.
Since I play alone I doubt it would annoy anyone so… but at the same time really no reason for it. After all who am I RPing with… myself?

This is less about the game and more about nerdier things.

Depicting trolls with fur. A footnote in a 2004 page that has been deleted for well over a decade doesn’t count when we have 15 years of furless trolls to show that they do not, in fact, have those shaggy elbows and whatever people draw them with. If trolls had fur, the updated models in WoD would’ve made it pretty clear that was the case.

Depicting worgen with tails. Worgen never had 'em. That’s really all there is to it. It’d feel really weird, personally, if some had tails and some didn’t, like if some draenei just randomly didn’t have tails but most did.
When people type your instead of you’re.

People that don’t transmog
People that don’t share gear they can’t even wear on mog runs. It’s a freaking mog run the point is to help the group unlock appearances. I flat out booted a demon hunter doing that from a group I was in charge of and IT FELT GOOD
When you earn tokens or points via quests for things and end up one or two short of what you need with no more quests left for the day.
For example: I’m questing in the Molten Front (Cataclysm) on an alt for some tailoring patterns. You earn Marks of the World Tree with each quest and I had to get 150 to open up the next area. I quested each day until I finally ended the day with 149 and no more quests left.

Hunters who can’t be bothered to name their pets. Come on, at least give them something. “Fluffy” will do! It’s better than nothing.
