People in front of you in the queue to the till who are suddenly joined by someone with armfulls of extra shopping. These aren't reserve slots you know. How would people react if I started my shopping trip in the queue for the till and waited for my wife to turn up with all the shopping? Get your fucking shopping and then go to the till with all of it.

People who use the wrong there, their or they're. Most of them have a clue to their use in the way it's spelt. Here and hear can be included in this along with where and wear.

People who insist that I'm gonna regret my tattoos when nobody wants to look at my body at the age of 70. If any wants to look at me when I'm 70 I'll be fucking impressed, tattooed or not.

My fucking brother.

Reply to Post 63632 by amanda in Life’s Little Annoyances people that use the word lol.......whether its on the internet and even worse in a text.....I also cant stand text speak...really gets my goat!


I couldn't agree more, every time some plonker uses text speak I feel that the English language dies a little more. The fact I have mates that use it makes me think I should probably replace them.

Reply to Post 63623 by MarkLuth in Life’s Little Annoyances Dog owners who think you immediately love animals as well


Agreed, that fixed grin on my face when some git has let their horse off the leash which has decided to run towards me is rarely a happy one. It's generally indicative of me frantically trying to find a sharp implement on my person I can use to take down said hound just in case it tries to eat me. I don't mind dogs in general, I just don't want to be one of those people that gets munched by some lumbering beast that was originally bred to kill elephants.

I think that's probably just their way of saying they look s**t now.

Reply to Post 63638 by Jay in Life’s Little Annoyances Sarcasm being misinterpreted by self-righteous 'playa-h8erz'


Personally, I wouldn't consider someone to be 'self-righteous' for questioning a potentially racist comment made by another forum member.

Can someone inform me as to when a racist comment suddenly turns form mindless stupidity to an accepted form of sarcasm? It appears to be lost on me.

People who dawdle when walking.

Waking up, going to the kitchen and realising you have no milk/tea bags/breakfast.

Most of the media.

The constant announcements on trains. Yes I know I'm in Swindon, thats why I boarded the fucking train and no I dont give a s**t if the buffet cart is open for hot and cold snacks. Leave me in peace.

Banks ripping off the average wage slave. Barclays announce annual profits of £11.6bn, having the audacity to gloat about not borrowing taxpayers' money, when only a few months ago they took off me what equates to 4 hours' wages, just because a bill came out of my account early and I went 98p overdrawn. Utter, utter bastards.

- Old people.
- Smelly people.
- Rude people.
- Women that use "Bubbly" as a synonym for loud and fat.
- Unknown guitar feedback.
- Posh wannabe indie girls that go to Reading Festival wearing neon paint and big aviator shades, and talk about how amazing Jack Penate is.
- Having the squits.
- Rolling a cigarette and finding you have no lighter.

When people write 'should of' instead of 'should have' or even should've

When someone uses text speak but the word they misspell is the same length; thus not saving any space or time whatsoever.

Prams on the underground. They should have to pay congestion charge.

When someones loose child gets under my feet and I have to stop myself from kneeing them in their delicate head.

Dogs in pubs or public transport.

People who play their music out of their mobile on the bus, they never have good taste and surely putting on your headphones would give a better and more considerate sound than the 590bpm chipmunk singing tinny crap you're subjecting people on the bus too.

Seeing someone wearing an item of clothing you own.

Crying baby's on the train.

The 4.30 train from London to Swindon full of commuting pricks who are still in 'office mode' talking bullshit on the phone for the whole fucking journey. I prefer the saturday drunks to these cretins.

Dawdlers who are walking painfully slowly, so slow it's actually harder to keep up with them than maintain a normal speed. Then they'll stop, look around and realise they fancy dawdling back the other way.

When people say something is 'random'.

People saying 'simples'. My dad does this, it's an advert you idiot, it's sunk into your soul and now advertising pricks now own a little piece of you.

The fact that Susan Boyle had the biggest selling album last year.

That people take Simon Cowell's opinion seriously.

Someone who has just arrived at the bar who gets served before me even though they're well aware I was here first. Bar etiquette should be taught from an early age.

Children

Racism is coming back into fashion, goes round in cycles y'know.
