Leave tools, paint brushes, putty knives, or whatever on the kitchen counter. I'm not sure if he is waiting for the home improvement fairy to put it away or what but I really have no desire. The tool organization is not my thing, I don't generally use them, and I'm not his mom so I'm not putting them away. After a few days I will get frustrated and move them to the top of the dryer since it is out of my sight and closer to its intended destination.
He flosses his teeth every night with those floss picks. I KNOW it's good dental hygiene, but he'll sit around the couch all evening with them hanging out of his mouth. I used to find them all over the living room, but thankfully he stopped that once DD started snatching them up. It just squicks me out to hear and see him floss.
And as a bonus annoyance that isn't irrational, the damn snooze button on his alarm. I wake up before him so it doesn't keep me up or anything, but OMG just get up when it goes off! I hate not knowing when he'll emerge from the bed. 7? 7:09? 7:27??? The suspense is killing me!
Leaves stuff laying around then gets pissed when he can't find it. Put your shit away so you know where it is!
Will leave a TINY bit of food in the container, so he doesn't feel guilty about finishing the bag/box. Prime culprits are chips and ice cream. I can't tell you how many times I've been looking forward to ice cream, only to find there's a tablespoon left.
Won't wear an apron for some reason. So he repeatedly ruins his shirts with grease stains. He's always pissed his work shirts are stained. Totally your fault dude.

Oh and he also will use a knife for mayonnaise or peanut butter and then leave it on the side of the sink instead of putting it in the sink. You know, because he might use it again. Sure H.

Eats whole sunflower seeds constantly. The sound of him shelling them with his teeth is like sitting next to a giant fucking gerbil. I've forbidden him from eating them in the car with me, we are too close together for me to listen to that shit.
He walks around the house brushing his teeth and then leaves his toothbrush in whatever bathroom he happens to be closest to when he finishes
THEN when he's looking for a toothbrush at night, he just gets a new one from the Costco multipack I have in the master bathroom. But he's left his other ones in either the guest bathroom or DD's bathroom. There are, I kid you not, 8 toothbrushes in the guest bathroom drawer.
I get extra ragey when he takes the toothpaste with him because then he's drawn me into his stupidity.

He slurps his coffee, cereal, and soup.
He gags himself with his toothbrush when he brushes his tongue. Every. Single. Day. I've already laid claim to teaching G how to brush his teeth because I cannot deal with two people doing that in my house.

Takes his socks off in the living room at some point every evenings and just leaves them there. So annoying. I find dirty socks just randomly all over the house, really.
Puts a game on TV and then falls asleep holding the remote or with the remote hidden under his blanket. If I manage to find the remote, he wakes up the MOMENT I change the channel and says "I was watching that!"

Complete inability to find things without my assistance. See: things in fridge, random tools, and shoes. My subconscious just notices his random things and can recall them when he goes "have you see my..."
He can't stand the sound of people eating crunchy items. He'll buy chips and guac for us and then give me a dirty look as I am eating it like a normal person. Crunchy food is crunchy! I am not purposely chomping extra loud just to piss you off! (Though I am tempted to sometimes.)
Also if he wasn't married and didn't have a kid, I am pretty sure his house would have a layer of grime several inches deep half the year. Dirtiness does not phase him at all for weeks and weeks...and then one day he'll suddenly go on a massive cleaning streak. It's weird.

Leaves gobs of toothpaste all over the sink and counter and sometimes even dripping down the cabinet. HOW?! WHY?! I haven't figured it out in 11+ years.
