trivial little things that really bug you
Tue 16 Feb 2010 09:43
Going on from the other thread life’s little pleasures, how about the little things in life that really bug you, no matter how trivial, things that someone else would turn a blind eye to, but really get your goat! For me its,

Fog Lights. Drivers that turn on their car fog lights at the slightest sign of mist or fog, drivers with the” I’ve got them so I’m gonna fucking use them and I don’t care how bright they are, and don’t give a s**t about the poor bastad being blinded behind me” attitude !

Going into the local supermarket to buy a loaf of bread, there is always someone in there that’s got to pick up a loaf and start squeezing the life out of the thing, then put it back and pick up another loaf and do the same thing. I watched a women do this about five times the other day, doesn’t she realise someone else has got to eat that!
That really bugs me.

Another little annoyance for me is when I go into the newsagents to buy a newspaper, why cant people take the one that’s on the top of the pile? Why do people have to delve about half way down and then pick one out and make sure there is not one fold or crease in it? I can guarantee within five minutes it’s screwed up on the back seat of there car, of stuffed in the bottom of there work bag. This really does irritate me.

Apart from that I’m quite a mellow chap!

The cellophane layers on ready meals that clearly will never and have never been able to be peeled off without you just ending up with the 'peel here' tab in your fingers.

People who stop before entering roundabouts despite the entrance to the right being devoid of cars as far as the eye can see.

Anyone who drives in the middle lane of the motorway when the inside lane is available to them.

Virtually all customer service departments.

Farting and not being 100% confident it was solely wind that escaped.

milletts. not sure on the spelling of that one.
really though, life's only little annoyance is when people focus on the little things that annoy them, rather than cherishing the beauty around them and the good fortune with which they've been priveleged.

that and jews, anyway.

People that sanctimoniously waffle on about beauty in response to a light-hearted topic, then hide behind a bit of "ironic" casual racism/anti-semitism to cover themselves. Really gets my goat, does that.

old drivers that swing randomly in and out of lanes, lorry's van,s trucks that bully you.

drivers that think if you overtake them safely that they should blind you with fullbeam , sorry mate i don't feel like driving at 45 mph all the way home behind your slow ass.

smoking i can't seem to give it up , i know its bad for me but can't stop it.
