  • People who walk up to my desk and start slagging off my choice of newspapers or magazines whilst thumbing their way through them. Go and jog on to the shop and buy your own !!!!!

    Old people in shops between the hours of 12.00 and 2.00pm, why don't they shop earlier, most are up at 5.00 in the morning.

    Fat people in shops who have the turning circle of the QM2 and fat people who can't walk in a striaght line, pick your row of tiles and stick to your "lane".

    This. And even worse, people when in heavy traffic sit 2 inches from the car in front, who insist on braking every 2 seconds as they're too close, which in turn despite my nice gap makes me brake every 2 seconds. The Cnuts.

    Took me almost 7 hours to drive from Surrey to Newcastle last week, with far too many of these idiots around.

    Yep! My wife does that but worse still, not waiting for the old bog roll to run out but changing it with several rolls left on the old roll then putting the old one back on top of the new reversed roll, oh! and you can reach the new rolls whilst perched on the throne. :evil:

    Also manages every time she drives the car to leave the seat belt twisted so it wont retract, I have tried to do it by design and I'll be dammed if I can get it to jam. :evil:

    Coffee snobs. :lol:

    There should be 4 choices:

    Black no sugar
    Black with sugar
    White no sugar
    White with Sugar

    All the rest is (marketing) bo11ocks to make you part with £4 for a fri99in coffee.

    On the subject of toilet paper, trying to separate the two sheets at the start of a new roll. The paper always starts out of 'sync' and requires you to tear off a handful before you are able to remove a useful section.

    The wholesale removal of punctuation from emails and the obsesssion with abbreviating everything. It all started with texting and now just seems to be accepted by many as the norm and no longer necessary.
    txt spk fkn h8 it lol thx (How hard is it to write thanks?)

    Football in general and the acceptance now that simulation (i.e cheating) is part of the modern game. It's only part of the game because it has been allowed to become part of the game. Punish the offenders - ban them and fine them money and points - it will soon go away again.

    Grrrr again.

    Ordering one of said £4 coffees and not being listened to by the 'Barista' (yeah right) even at that price.

    "medium latte for in please, nothing else"
    (in screachy voice) " do you want a large latte?"
    "no a medium please"
    "are you sitting in?"
    "yes"
    20 minutes later....

    Leaving the office to go to the loo, only to find there is some complete ball end already in there. I work in shared office building and I have to walk up 2 floors of stairs to get to the men's. Whereas women have loo's on every floor. What's that about? Even worse when they've dropped last nights curry in there.

    Everything Politicians say and do - lying toe rags all of them.

    The word "absolutely" it seems to be used as a standard reply for pretty much anything. Just listen to the Today program on Radio 4, everybody they interview replies with 'Absolutely,..." usually lying toe-rag Politicians, aaarrrggghhh! the english language has a few more words you know!
