A nice grumpy thread for Saturday evening :haha: What are your pet hates? Here are some of mine
1: People who wait for parking spaces whilst the other people are still putting their shopping in the boot.
2: People who go shopping on payday. I never go big shopping on payday I just go when I need to go. However I hate arriving at asda for 3 items wondering if everyone has shit the bed then noticing ahh no its the bloody 30th. Cant you all space it over a week lol
3: families of 5-6 people who walk along the sea front holding hands at a dawdle pace and refuse to break up to let people past.
4: Car drivers who slow down to let you pull out when there is no traffic behind them for 5 miles. Just drive past its quicker.
5: Nuzzle and scratch (kids tv) most irritating program in the history of kids tv.
6: Teenagers or kids that talk to you about music and mention a song as being by a later artist i.e. Take on me, oh yeh that song by A1 :-x
7: Whilst we are on music! Sampling old hits and using them in crappy new rap music sad
Ahhhhh Feel kind of better now :lol: Sure I can think of more later smile
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.
People who deem it necessary to arm themselves with an umbrella on crowded streets
at busy "rush hour" times of the day. :fuckinghell:
The pavements at rush hour are not the easiest places to safely navigate, their is little room for maneuver at best, add to that the threat of the brolly weilding maniacs hell bent on getting to work as fast as possible because its wet and it becomes a lethal game of run the gauntlet.
I see them every day, blindly ploughing head long through the crowds with no regard for there fellow pedestrians.
Not a clue as to the mayhem they are causing and totally oblivious of the injuries they are inflicting with them pointy wire bits.
Stabbing people indiscriminately in the ear, eye, face and back of the head costs the NHS something in the region of 1 billion a year. !! (dont quote me on that)
Then if thats not enough, the bastards shake them wildly in an attempt to rid the brolly of any drops of rain usually in doorways before entering a building soaking everyone in the vicinity. Its wrong i tell you :twisted:
FUCK OFF WITH YOUR FUCKIN UMBRELLAS !! :taz:
Get a coat with a hood... or a nice hat ! you know it makes sence smile
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)

thank you for that foxylady, it sounds plausible. Guess I just need to go by a bike to get some use outa my lower zip.
I'd also add to my list anything designed and made for usw by right handed people when making it nuetral handed wouldn't alter it's performance or cost. I know the world is predominantly right handed and thats what needs to be catered for if an item is better for being 'handed', but bashing a pouring lip into a milk saucepan on both sides at the time of manufacture can't add cost to the product.... the list could go on
1. People who seem to think they will be charged for each use of their car's indicators.
2. Children who have to shout at each other despite being close enough to sit on each other's laps.
3. Rude people (as in ill-mannered - the other type are to be actively encouraged :rascalsmile
4. People who blatantly use hand-held mobile phones while driving, especially when it means they can't slow down or steer appropriately, and particularly when they are carrying a passenger who could be conducting the call on their behalf.
5. Bins that apparently only I am allowed to empty.
OK, before my mood hits rock bottom, I'm off to get dressed. May come back to this later.
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 who don't put the butter/milk back in the fridge, soft butter is disgusting, as is room temperature milk, walk the 1.5 metre to the fridge ya lazy swine :mad:
People who use supermarkets as a gossip shop and jam up the isles to talk about jimbob from down the road and the weather or spend 20 minutes deciding over which loaf of bread to buy
The difference in volume when you change the channel on the TV or the change in volume from advert to advert
Pubs and shops playing Christmas songs in early November
The college kids who like to park where we live and dump their MacDonald lunch wrappers outside the car - just opening the window and dropping the bag out (I've taken to picking up said wrappers and putting them under their wipers along with a little note saying this is not a dumping ground, makes a lovely mess if they have had milkshake :lol2: )
Door to door sales rep's who don't take no for an answer
Things really high on shop shelves and when you ask a shop assistant for assistance they look at you like you have 2 heads. Sorry I am so short! banghead

Put a notice under your doorbell.
If you wish to use my doorstep to market or sell any product or service, you will be charged £50 for the duration of your advertising pitch. Pressing the doorbell is your confirmation that you accept these terms and conditions.
people that use the phrase "first to see will buy" how do they know FFS!!!!!

:lol2: I likes that plan
I'm quite lucky that most of them go round in numerical order, starting at 1 - 4 which is directly opposite my house, I see them before they see me, Plenty of time to hide lol
The problem is when the 11 year old rushes to the door in a hope that one of his little friends has come visiting
"is your mam or dad in"
"Yes.. Maaaaaaaaaammmmmm Doooooooooorrrr....."
"oh ffs thanks son"
100 + channels of crap on the TV
People who complain that there's never anything on TV except repeats but are paying £30 + a month subscription and a TV licence fee for the pleasure
People who can't understand why I don't have a TV
People who drive past loads of empty spaces just because they want to park as close to the shop entrance as possible (and often then have to drive round again coz the can't find one!)
People at work who leave their mobile phone on their desk missing loads of calls - there's a clue in it's name peeps, it's a mobile so take it with you ffs!
Being unable to go anywhere without bumping into someone I know
Censorship of Japanese porn :censored: never understood that one?! dunno
Women that shove their boobies into my face to try and get me to do their ironing! I'm a leg and bum man so it don't work ladies sillyhwoar: Try sitting on my face :rude:
People that use those little trolley cases for their laptops and stuff and quite happily walk off the tube, trains etc with them in tow. Look.... everyone's rushing to get to work or catch the train and are looking for spaces to dash into etc they are not looking at the floor so when they see a space in the crowd... off they go only to walk into the bloomin things or worse go arse over tit!!!
Another one.
People who answer (or start calls) their mobiles IN the cubicles of public toilets. I don't wish to know what disgusting hand-hygeine they have at home. But to be chatting on a phone while extreting bodily waste and then carry on chatting while wiping and flushing is many steps of disgusting too far. And don't they realise that the poor sod at the other end can hear every little sound?
And those who go to any shop, but especially food shops, use the toilet and then carry on with their shopping, handling the objects/food on display without washing their hands. And then they have the gall to get shirty when you tackle them about it and send them back in to wash their hands. dunno
People who treat their pets like children, refer to them as 'my babies' and put them ahead of their actual family and even their own well-being. Pets should be treated well, but that means treating them like animals not people.
And anyone who expects me to be impressed when they announce they can't ever go on holiday otheer than in their caravan cos little Fido wouldn't like to go to kennels misjudge me very badly.

:gagged:
When you go to a restaurant for lunch and the table they show you too is the table right next to the only other 4 guests in the restaurant. Leaves you with two options. Sit and listen to their conversation whilst trying to keep yours above toilet humor lol Or rejecting the table and making them feel like they smell :twisted:
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*

i have always thought the same... most items designed for a left handed persom, must of been designed by a Righty.
Takes Left handeds sissors.. i can not use them to save my life.. most arkward things ever,
My Pet Hates are.
>> A speed Camera that is about 30 Feet after the previous Speed Camera
>> The Traffic Police at the NEC
>> Google Latitude.... i Turned it on by mistake.. and cant figure out how to swtich it off.. ive not got the last months movements recorded on google.
>> The Skywalk thinky in the local asda, because the UP ramp is on the right and not the left.
>> people who always have to be that one bit better. no matter what you have done, they always have to go one better.
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.
Glad to hear it D .... wouldnt expect someone as evolved as you to state the bleeding obvious eh wink
old people who insist on ambling round supermarkets at lunchtimes or Saturday mornings ... jeez you have all the time in the world to shop, get out of my way!!!!
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!
