Connercial breaks that seem to go on for longer than the part of the programme you are watching!!! :twisted:
people who make lists.
And those who find that they read them.
Tv programmes that recap / summarise what has happened before the commercial break ......ffs we only watched it 3 minutes ago !
Asda again....people who block the aisle with there trolly , as they have just found out that uncle bens rice comes in more than one flavour and cant make their mind up.
People who block the end of my road with their cars , even tho it now has a big F off yellow box painted on the road .........yes i am bitter and twisted about that one :twisted:
I've found recently that I'm getting annoyed by politicians who leak what they're going to announce that day to the press in the morning WTF is that all about.
1. People who turn round in road junctions - we invented roundabouts about a century ago FFS.
2. People who park in the far end of cul-de-sacs - that isn't a personal parking space for your house - it's where everyone needs to turn round to get out.
3. Programmes that beep out swearing - just silence it - beeps are infuriating and distracting.
4. People who feel the need to explain jokes - I get it, I'm not laughing cos it wasn't funny.
5. People who, when you tell them about a new purchase, say "oh you should have asked me, I could have got it cheaper" - yeah right.
6. Directors that use fancy camera work to make gardening programmes or science programme 'more interesting' - it's already interesting to some of us, you moron.
7. WH Smiths for charging for their crappy little bags - they overcharge already.
8. CLothing manufacturers who think that, since you are a size 18, you are the same diameter all the way up and down. I am NOT a size 18 cylinder, I am an hour-glass shape (ok, a week-glass) but the shape is there!
9. Pseudo-scince on adverts and the blatant assumption that all the viewers are thick enough to beleive it.
10. On the same theme - same adverts that announce 75% agree and in small text below have to admit they only asked 52 people.
11. The Advertising Standards agency who allow such meaningless and insulting adverts.
12. Delivery companies that will only deliver in office hours and won't leave the parcel without it being received even when a signature isn't required or I swear I will accept any risk.
13. Anything that doesn't keep its promises - from 2-hour candles that last 30 minutes to (turns to spit) any and all politicians.
well, you did ask.
scart plugs
pug dogs
coats with double zips (if you know why a coat needs to be able to be unzipped from the bottom up can you tell me please)
Dino's comments about umbrellas are spot on.
Women (most common offenders) who wait until every item on the belt has been rung through the till and packed before realising "Oh yes, I need my purse" then spend an eternity rummaging through it trying to select what card to use. Even worse are the ones who do that, then decide once the total has been rung that they have forgotten something, and has to dash back to the aisles to get the item that was not on the essay of a list that they are clutching with all the fervour of a jackpot winning lottery ticket holder.
People who dither when driving, just make a f****** decision FFS!!!
Inconsiderate smokers.
People who walk along a street with their mobile phone on speaker playing music, ear/headphones were invented for cretins like you.
OK, I'm going to stop for now...
people that use the phrase "first to see will buy" how do they know FFS!!!!!
people that drive on sidelights I mean why not put the headlights on its not like it is costing you for the electric
I have lots of little gripes about the world, but generally they only strike me as they happen, and thankfully, once past, I forget them.
At the moment though, there are a few that stick in my mind.
Designers - product designers to be specific. Essentially "artists" that have a penchant for random household objects and can't "artfully" draw outside the lines.
White shoes. I've noticed a lot of "designers" wearing normal jeans / t-shirt combos, teamed with white plimpsole style tight pointy poncey shoes. I hope they wear them somewhere where safety shoes are required and drop something heavy on their poncey white toes.
Running out of milk / sugar / tea. Tea is a vital part of my working day. Without ta, I don't function. You'll understand, I hope, that running out of one of the ingredients would rile me uncontrollably. Lets be fair - it's not hard to realise that once we start running low on something we should order more. Grrrr
There are more things that irk me but I fear I may start throwing things in frustration!
*Him*
New there is such an obvious reply to yours that includes your pussy and a finger/several fingers but I'm gonna be the better man ;o)
Pet hates.....
Misleading or ambiguous road signs.
Too many road signs/writing on the road/bumps/tabletops/rumblestrips/flashing lights/sharks teeth/speed cameras/speed indicators.
And following on from that people who do a months shop in the local store. Bloody traffic jam at the till that creates. Ohh and FFS why? Everything in there cost a small fortune for a Pizza I kid you not, 99p in Lidl!
