1) People finishing a sentence with "so...."

I mean for crying out loud :mad: You have started making a point, you are now wrapping your argument up, so back it up and give it the treatment it deserves, do not leave it hanging in mid-air, expecting me to finish your point/idea/argument! :mad:

You want to say something, SAY IT. Don't stop in mid-sentence.


2) Women wearing ballet shoes.

What's wrong with you :confused: Seriously :confused: You look like tramps wearing them. Do you not have any fashion sense? Don't you realise that you look absolutely ***** wearing that rubbish!? Wear REAL shoes, for crying out loud!


/rants :p
 
I take it your talking about those really daft slippers that really seem popular at the moment?

Not a big fan of them either!

As for the first, just say, "So what??"

So?! If some lady wants to wear ballet shoes, let them. It doesn't bother you anyway.

You shouldn't be staring at them/their feet anyway, you freak.

:p
 
Hey, I said in the title, these things nark me off when I'm bored, not all the time :p

I do believe that I have made this point clear, so....





See how annoying it is!? :D



yeah, I mean those odd slipper thingies, they look like ballet shoes to me. Seriously, whats up with that?!
 
I have a problem with people who have a problem with the way in which another individual expresses him/her/self.

There is a Radio chat show host who continually harps on about how much it annoys him when people use the term, "at the end of the day" and start every sentence with the word "basically".

There are people who use common cliché and there are people who swear a lot, there are those who express themselves very clearly and those who talk in code ( My work collegue insists on telling me that cerain people are not up to there job, but just won't actually say it, I have to decipther his thoughts like criptic clues, very strange ).

We all have our ideosyncracies , I love talking to people. I enjoy interaction. I love broad Cockneys, Scousers and Glaswegians and there colloquialisms. Nothing bothers me about the way in which people communicate, as long as they do it with respect for the company they are in and with respect to the people in who they are taking to.

The only thing I don't like is belittling sarcastic remarks that are made at the detriment of others, that I cannot abide.
 
One thing that gets my goat is when people start a piece of writing with 'So...'. If someone has a blog, they've probably done it. It's the fact that it sounds like they expect you to have been waiting on the edge of your seat for the next thrilling installment:

"So I'm in town..."

"So I was at the party..."

"So I was having grammar lessons..."

No-one cares!...








Bah, damn you irony!
 
I have to agree with your two points there, I hate those ballet shoe/slipper things. All the girls in Yr11 at my school wear them, and they look pants! :p :D
