I mean, I’m genuinely not sure what bit is potentially annoying here, is it the fact you had to run the tap for a second or the fact that a human being spoke to you without your express permission or what?

was it the way she said it or something? because the information she’s given you is just useful isn’t it, why would it be annoying?

ah yeah, this makes sense. I do get wound up a bit being told to do something I’m already in the process of, but I don’t think this particular example would bother me
