What really wind's you up?

What things get on your nerves?

First Scotrail, Hollyoaks, people who take ages to complete a transaction when using an ATM, The News of the World, inconsiderate smokers, racism, religious bigotry, Football Commercials, and lack of legroom when on a flight (I'm 6'4 :eek: )
 
Folks who have no respect for other peoples belongings.

The keyed car threads in Motors that we have had recently are an example, makes my blood boil :mad:

My GF's idea of washing up also annoys me. Apparently wafting the items within an inch of the water constitutes as being washed.

Fair enough, you have judged on appearances there but does the following not make you a bit of a hypocrit then? :p ;)

Shallow people.

For me the most irritating thing at the moment would tend to be random stupidity, I don't mind if people don't know the answer or can't do something but when they should be able to do it and don't because they are too lazy/stupid or whatever then it grates.

Chavs asking me "You got any spare change mate, innit? Need to use the phonebox like, innit?" when I'm walking home.

No, I don't have any spare change. However, unfortunately for you I DO have this shotgun concealed within my trench coat which I shall now proceed to KILL you with.

Haha, yea couldn't agree more. I really do want to shoot them all! :p :eek:
 
Business people who talk unneccessarily loudly on trains or airports etc. Why they need to tell Giles to at 400 dB is beyond me. My advice business types ? **** it !!!!! :mad:

Also, not so much a wind up as a mystery is the use of the fabled Gregg's Dummy. If I pop down the town there is usually an army of young mothers pushing kids about and they just about all have a Gregg's pasty with crumbs all over their chops. It is like something from a film. Why ?

Also, people such as what happened when I was on the plane returning back here at the weekend. I was listening to my iPod and inadvertantly tapped my fingers. The oldish guy in front, a business type I think, sat up and turned around and looked at me as if I was a scrapable dogs egg off his shoe, no words. If he asked, I would have stopped as it's something we all do. He didn't, he looked and then turned around again. My hackles went up straight away. Result, Stars on 45 and more tapping. Childish I know but I really don't like it when people look down on others. If he wants tranquility .... fly BA.
 
I was going to be straight in here with a sharp...

Apostrophe misuse.

But alas, beaten in the first reply.

At the moment I annoy myself by saying "like" too much. It's like, annoying like.

Eating pastry products on the move should be outlawed. It's impossible not to embarrass yourself.
 
Youths who keep spitting on the floor every 30 seconds - what, can they not hold saliva in their mouth like a normal human?
 
A few that get me.

Old people jumping queues. For some reason they think they can skip to the front of the queue past everyone else thats been standing there patiently for 10 minutes.

Public transport in general.

People paying by credit card / switch at express check outs (5 items or less) in supermarkets.

Rude people in general, there are people at work that will knock on your door in a second if they are desperate for help, but wont give you the time of day at any other time. I followed one of these said people down the stairs at work a while ago and had 4 doors shut in my face on the way down. Most normal people would hold a door open for someone right behind them.

inconsiderate parkers. Ie taking 2 spaces with 1 car.

Oh yes am with you on that one or worse when they are slightly over the line and you can't quite get in.

But fatty the driver of the other car has heaps of room for him or her to get in.

LOL even more random is when my friend was walking along down by the seafront with someone else, they got stopped and the chav (who was apprently out of his head) asked them for a chip. To which he replied do I look like a ****ing chippy?
