What REALLY annoys you?

People who insist on spelling their name, even when you didn't ask them to. And then spell it again if they need to repeat the name, even though they already spelt it a couple of minutes ago. HATE IT!!!

Considerably more annoying than this is when people spell my name wrong through sheer incompetence and laziness. I'm called Stewart and sign e-mails off with my name. The number of times I get a reply starting with "Hi Stuart" is unreal. Makes me lose complete interest in what the person has to say and i'll regularly put that e-mail to the bottom of the to-do list.
 
Some of these may have been said by others:

People who stop (often to chat with friends) in entrances and doorways - especially shops and supermarkets - and look at you like you're some kind of weirdo for actually wanting to get past. This also applies to people blocking aisles in supermarkets.

People standing in front of a particular section of shelves in a supermarket debating what product to buy taking ******* ages and blocking access to the shelves for those who want to grab what they want and get on.

People who stand on the side of the road looking to cross it for ages when they're less than 100 yards away from a signalled crossing (Pelican/Toucan/Whatever)

People who know very little about computers and seem to take delight in the fact, as though it's somehow beneath them.

People taking photos with fondleslabs. Not cool.

Lefty liberal offended-on-behalf-of-other-people types. I'm sure the people they're sticking up for are more than capable of speaking for themselves.

Lefty liberal pro-open door immigration types, who also turn out to be the NIMBYs in small towns and villages who campaign as though their lives depended on it against any new housing development. A little 'joined up thinking' needed?

The fact that most females like **** music.

Overly arrogant people.
 
Smokers outside hospitals, especially patients who have popped out for one. Annoys me as my mate it trying to give up but he's in a ward with a guy who does this and it's driving him up the wall.

Why have a policy of no smoking on the hospital grounds if nobody enforces it?
 
My significant others ability to ignore my advice, and choose her mothers instead, which to this date has been as poor a choice as her own. Then to blame me when I am right and she is upset.
 
The latest trend of TV programmes that go along these lines:

Opening titles.
'Coming up later' voice over.
Programme starts.
'Coming up after the break' voice over.
Adverts.
Programme restarts.
'Coming up later' voice over.
Programme resumes.
Rinse and repeat depending on length of the show.

Thanks you've just given away what's going to happen with your padding out of time. It doesn't matter a lot of the time, but if the programme has a plot or some kind of result and the end it really gets on my nerves. Im watching Master Chef Australia at the moment, they even insert interviews with the contestants obviously recorded after the 'challenges' etc so you can tell who is about to be eliminated 30mins before the programme's conclusion.


I also get annoyed at the over use of words. The latest one is 'key', and how everything is 'key' on TV nowadays.

Im also sick of the words 'fail' and 'epic' and how nearly every youtube video starts with the phrase 'hi guys'.

I echo other peoples annoyances such as noisy eating, drink slurping and nail biters/pickers/phone shouters/chavs.
 
What really annoys me ...... when people say the abbreviation "LOL" as it is spelt or says "L", "O", "L" in real life conversations ...... seriously just be human being and laugh out loud instead of sounding like a complete retard :rolleyes:
 
When little kids want a snack & don't eat it all. My sisters 1 3/4 year old leaves half eaten food around sometimes, then whines when the dog eats it.

Same. My name is Jonathon, not John, or Jon, or Johnathan or Jonathan. You've got my bloody name on every single email I send you, just get it right! I'm going to spell the offenders names incorrectly from now on. Take that, jerks.

This. I'm also a Jonathan, but notice the spelling is different from yours. What's worse is the different permutations of my surname: Seymour; I get Seemore, Seymore and even a letter once addressed to a Mr C. Moore :rolleyes:

People are idiots. I mean, at worst they could spell it Jonathan, because that's correct. I mean, Johnathan, wtf!

I feel your pain too, my surname is double barreled but without a hyphen.
