Well it can also be a convenient self-deprecating put down, when you want to say how annoyed you were because some film got a bunch of details wrong.

However if keeping your place neat and tidy is one of the criteria, I'm gonna have to stop labeling myself as A-R.

I guess "simply irritating" will have to do. Heather just LOVES it when we're watching a 'period' film and I have to point out that some guitar in it was made two years 'after' the period.

Cheers
