    Agreed, or people who say they 'tell it how it is' as an excuse to be a horrible person.

    Anther thing that annoys me, people who say 'cuttelry' rather than 'cutlery'

    For me it's people who want to "arx" a question, is it really that difficult to get your chops around "ask"?

    Seems to be pretty popular in NI, at least my mate from NI says it a lot in and amongst other jibberish
  • I've been known to order a Naam bread with a curry.

    My fiancee has given up correcting me and just says "Got himself killed in 'Nam, didn't even know it" whenever I get it wrong...

    People who spell "gibberish" incorrectly :lol:

    Anyway: Youtube: I'm watching videos of classical music, so why do you think I'd want to listen to the latest teen-pop-sensation-sh17e on Spotify?

    It's just a hill. Get over it.

    I thought about it briefly as it had a red line under it but then I got distracted by the phone and posted it anyway. Must try harder next time :oops:

    Mobile phones knowing your every move.

    Never been bothered before, but new phone few months ago which knows where I live, where I work and where I parked the car without any info provided.

    It should be beneficial being given traffic condition updates and eta's automatically, but I just find it annoying knowing that someone somewhere will be doing something with the data.

    People who reverse the wrong way down a one way street under the assumption it is ok because they are facing in the right direction.

    What about reversing down a 2 way street, even though your on the wrong side of the road for direction travelling?

    But when does anyone do that other than parking? I'd forgive it on a one way street for parking reasons because it's only a few metres. I'm tolerant like that.

    Going all the way to Portugal to see someone only to find they weren't in and had buggered off to Cabo São Vicente for the day.

    Or perhaps they were just pretending and were hiding behind the sofa.

    What? You think I was born with this Adonis like body? I've had to work at it.

    Maybe I've become too used to paying ~£3 for poor coffee but they seem cheap to me! It was in a pub/restaurant/cafe in Kirkudbright, it was very average iirc.

    Being asked to review everything I buy. Even if I could be @rsed, who is going to be reading my detailed review of a replacement microwave turntable or a 5 pack of innertubes??

    Hotels and restaurants, fair enough, but trivial, banal everyday crap? What's that all about?
