What REALLY annoys you?

Wanna-be-alphas who make a thing about firm handshakes :mad:..

I'm not a 'wanna-be-alpha', but I was always taught to present a firm handshake, especially when meeting someone for the first time.

This is one of a persons first impressions of you, and I believe it says a lot. I'm not talking squeeze the life out of someones hands, but a firm handshake with nothing limp!
 
That one's not always so simple, as, depending on what you're driving, it can be less than 60.

I don't disagree in principle though for standard vehicles, in the same way that for dual carriageways the speed limit is 70, and people still dawdle on them.

Sorry I did mean normal cars, I know lorrys have restrictions. I live next to the New Forest and trying to get from Christchurch to Southampton is about a 15mile single carriageway through the forest but tourists/old people usually do 40 all the way.
 
If we are only talking annoyance and not total blood-boiling rage then...

Tim Westwood (Radio DJ, not sure if he still exists, hopefully not), pretty much any pretentious tw*t trying be what he or she clearly isnt.

Parents that fail to keep their children in check in public (yes, im a parent).

Irrational behaviour.

Point scorers, including grammar Nazis.

I have a longer list for rage.

It's the same on my trip to and from work. Dithering idiots driving at 25-30 in a 40 or 40-50 in a national speed limit, so I understand where you're coming from.

It's one of the reasons I went back to riding a motorbike. That, and they're more fun than cars when the weather's nice :)

Get stuck behind Captain slow - wait to find suitable gap - smile as you overtake - tranquility resumes.
 
What doesn't.

General levels of incompetence in everything, like this morning, I go to the doctor, 8:30 appointment, 8:40 I get called in, I gotta get to work for goodness sake, I don't think it's ok to keep people waiting for 10 minutes! Robbing them of that time.

The way kids act now as well, it's a general trend among the young 20's, "Oh lets go and buy loads of **** we don't need, fancy clothes, cars on dreadful finance deals, then lets make every excuse why we can't move out" GET A ****ING GRIP.
Self entitled *******s who don't understand the difference between luxury and necessity expecting their parents to eventually pay their way in life, IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT!

It probably won't surprise you I was at the doctors for an ECG and blood pressure check. I'M NOT STRESSED AT ALL DOCTOR!!!! :mad:
 
Title says it all really. What thing really annoys you in life? Personally I can't stand people misusing apostrophes. Drives me absolutely mad.

People misusing apostrophes. Two extremely simple rules. That's it. Just two. It's not complicated..

Noisy neighbour's.

My pet hate too :mad: along with people who can't write their thread titles correctly using proper grammar and spelling.

People who listen to music on the bus/train on loudspeaker or volume right up.

Tourists.

People who don't let you off the train first and push past you.

Yes I live in London :p

People who park in the middle of a two car parking bay. PARK UP TO THE LINE YOU ********, parking space is sparse enough!

Sometimes there's a good reason... people with limited mobility etc. But yeah, I'm sure sometimes it's just someone being a ****.
