Leaving left over time on the microwave.
You heat something up in the microwave for a minute. You let the microwave run for 57 seconds. Is it too much to ask that you clear off the remaining 3 seconds?!

When the inconsiderate coffee drinker who made their hot beverage last gets coffee granules in the sugar pot
... which I don't have the time nor patience to pick out, thus polluting my cup of tea with domineering coffee taste whenever I add the formerly pure sugar.

Rancid dish sponge.
Ubiquitous in office kitchens. If you can smell it from across the room it's time to throw it away.

Making coffee when the sink is full of dirty dishes.
a) It's really difficult to pour the old leftover coffee out of the pot without spilling it on the counter; and b) it's almost impossible to position the pot under the faucet. And it's even worse if it was your turn to wash the dishes the night before.

When people buy a huge bag of cheap rice.
Are you kidding me? We don't need the shittiest possible rice imaginable, here. There's a taste difference and a nutritional difference and decent unbleached rice is not that difficult to afford or find. Why anyone who makes more than $2 per hour would purchase cheap rice is so beyond me - it's like it should be illegal on another planet.

Bendy straws cracked at the joint.
