OcUK Room 101 - Dump your petty hates here.

People who say “I must play the lottery tonight COS IT’S A ROLLOVER”

What ..... like it’s not worth playing it when it’s not?!?!

And in either case - queuing behind people buying lottery tickets and scratch cards, especially those who have to scratch them at the counter! Jeez can’t that £2k win wait another 5 minutes

People that believe in assorted pseudosciences including but not limited to anti-vaxxers, human-influenced climate change deniers and creationists.
 
People walking down Queen St in Auckland, arms linked ... three or even four abreast!

GET BACK ON YOUR CRUISE SHIPS AND **** OFF, JESUS CHRIST, JUST BECAUSE YOUR APP TELLS YOU THAT DIOR AND L.V. ARE MARGINALLY CHEAPER HERE THAN IN CHINA, IS IT REALLY WORTH THE TINY SAVING TO **** OFF EVERY PERSON IN AUCKLAND BECAUSE YOU DONT KNOW HOW TO WALK DOWN A STREET WHICH OTHER PEOPLE ARE ALSO WALKING ON??!

Agree, I can't bear that.

I would like to add my own current example... people who blow their nose on a serviette at the dinner table and then throw the serviette onto the plate and continue their conversation with others who are still eating. Utter minging.
 
"Ping" email received,
"Ring, ring",
"Hi Josh - I've just sent you an email",
"I know I'm about to read it"
"Don't worry I'll spend the next 35mins explaining it"

Utter twonk.

There is a guy in work who does this, you email him a simple yes or no question. 5 Minutes later he calls you up to answer then explain the reasoning for 20 minutes. I don't need to know the backstory just the answer!
 
People who begin an answer to a question with 'yeah, I mean.'
People you say 'you know' constantly.
The media for making the word 'Hero' meaningless.
Companies who have made an apology sound so shallow.
 
Three main hates of mine :

1)People who press any button to call the elevator (up or down) with no consideration of which way they want to travel.

2)People who fully recline their seats on a plane the moment the fasten your seat belt light turns off.

3)People who get to the checkout without having their method of payment prepared and then spend 5 minutes (seemingly) messing about trying to find their purse/wallet. I mean....how did you think you were going to pay for the goods?
 
People making excessive phone calls on the train, either through the fact that they're 1/4 foghorn on their mothers side, using the phone on speaker, or spending the entire hour and a half long journey chatting away with 6 or 7 call backs to explain "I just went through a tunnel". After 18 months of commuting in to London I would now vote for any party who will a) legislate that 50% of train carriages must be quiet carriages. and b) will decriminalise extreme violence in cases where this isn't respected.
