I'm now irritated that I'm not irritated. I was beginning to settle into a smooth disgruntlement.

maybe you've matured overnight into a grumpy old git?

Double negatives .
People who litter.
Commercial radio stations and most of the DJs on them.
Poorly parked cars - taking up too much space.
Having to change my password at work every 2 weeks- what's the point.
People who don't like certain foods without even trying them.

Sharpening a pencil only for the front bit of lead to fall out.

"Baby on board" tags in car rear windows.
I honestly couldn't give a toss if your screeching, puce-faced shitfactory is currently stinking up the place in the back of your motor. It won't make a BLIND bit of difference to me or how I am driving.

Hah. I remember that episode!
Seriously though, some parents seem to exist under the belief that just because THEIR entire world continually orbits around the precious squirming spawn of their loins on the back seat, they automatically think everyone elses should too.
Sorry, but if you're passive-aggressively asking me to back off from your car a little further because Skycloud-Triximuff is strapped in the back, it ain't gonna happen. I'll drive EXACTLY the same as I would if you had a sign saying "Asbestos on board" or "Highly enriched uranium in boot" - that is to say, probably far enough away that I won't plough into the back of you, assuming you don't suddenly perform a handbrake turn. You simpering clot.

I know what you mean, but I think they were originally intended as an indication to the Emergency Services in case of an accident, which has meant more than once that Fire crews have searched surrounding ditches and fields for a little one being thrown from an accident when there wasn't one in the car at the time, so no child in car = take the notice out.
But I really dislike the "Little Princess on board" ones. ...... I felt sure there was a vomit emoji!

All of these are things I have moaned about recently.

I think that's a bit of a myth tbh. The emergency services do such a thorough job when they arrive at the scene of an accident. I'm quite sure the presence or absence of one of those ubiquitous tags doesn't make a blind bit of difference to all the well established procedures and protocols they follow at every accident scene.

Real-time update. People whose first reaction to any tinge of disappointment is to complain and seek compensation.......
Just got back from a day trip whilst on holiday. Trip culminated in a walk round a brewery, but we couldn't see the storage room/kettles (renovation going on) and the bottling line wasn't working due to a big staff meeting going on. The 'tasting' was very well done, and included a load of snacks too. Most of us had a bit of a laugh about it. Rest of the trip was great.
Coach gets back to base, our guide get a good round of applause but then Mr Indignant promptly stands up and bellows 'Can I suggest everyone puts in a formal complaint about the brewery tour this afternoon, that way we may all receive some compensation'.
Oh just **** OFF !
