Two annoying occurences this week.  
1) I missed my commuter train by 2 seconds, running up to the platform seeing  train coming, including a large staircase leading to the platform.  A door literally shut in front of me and I had to wait for 10-15 minutes for the next train. (Pro)
2) A meeting was scheduled early in the morning about an hour earlier before my regular time to get to the office.  I got up early and started getting ready when I learned that the meeting got rescheduled for another day.  At that point I headed to the office anyway. (Con)

i will argue that while both cases are annoying, missing the train is sligtly more annoying.  
If you argue pro then you are arguing for missing train is more annoying. Con will argue for cancelled meeting being more annoying.

I will argue that missing a train in this case is more annoying since it was literally a couple of seconds away and was a more immediate impact.

I think that last minute meeting cancellation would be more annoying to me.  I would be annoyed with inconsiderate person who did that last minute.  Train door, while frustrating, is somewhat just your own fault for not getting up ontime, but the meeting cancellation is someone else fault.
