New rolls of toilet roll that you can't start off without ripping half of it to shreds.

We're looking at you Andrex puppy.

I hear that

Thinking you have some tasty chocolates left over from Christmas in the cupboard, only to pull out the pack and find it is in fact Ainsley Harriot™ Lentil Dahl.

[Saponara_Immobile]

or in a supermarket queue and the person in front doesn't put one of those "next customer please" signs down.

[i_like_mittens]

Women with prams who carelessly bump into people.

[SHYGIRLAJB]

When people say oh I'm going to be a couple of hours and then end up being a lot longer.

Huh, since when lol, its gonna be crap isn't it.

[Johnni]

When you are replying to a post so you are the next one under it also adding the optional '^' and when you click submit someone else has posted since so it looks like you are replying to them. Very annoying so i have to go back and actually quote them.

What makes us annoy you?

[Mr Ploppy]

People who stop to have a long conversation in a shop doorway.

[Salusa87]

People who stop their car in the middle of the road and start chatting to someone in the car on the other side of the road. I usually give them about 10 seconds and then beep.. well when I used to drive now i only do about once a week.

Ha ha. I noticed sometimes you unroll it but something doesn't feel right and it shreds far too easily. Then you realise the ply has separated.

[Effervescing Elephant]

This modern method of queuing whereby people stand in a disorganised crowd somewhere vaguely within 20 yards of the shop till/bus-stop fiddling with their phones and chatting. Nothing happens when the till becomes free/the bus comes so I make a move and I get a terse "there is a queue you know".

People who stand chatting in front of the fridge in the office kitchen meaning that I have to <shudder> interact with them to get my milk out.

Smug middle aged male cyclists trying to cram their Bromptons onto rush hour trains. (They all have iPads now for some reason too)

Posh and over-confident young people who talk loudly and who have been to every country in the world and participate in every outdoor pursuit you can name.

Those things like a clothes peg they clip on your finger in hospital to measure your bloodflow. Horribly uncomfortable.

Bits in books where the author describes the weather or the sunrise/sunset or the landscape. Where they just list these things I mean. If you are going to be really artistic then fine but otherwise it's just boring padding.

Those three wheeler prams everybody seems to have now - I don't know why they annoy me; they just do.

Similarly people who walk around in the street/on trains holding a cup of coffee up as if it is the Holy Grail or an Olympic gold medal they've just won. It's not an achievement to buy a coffee. I've bought coffees in the past. From Starbucks and everything.

...which reminds me. The Olympics. The hype. Oh feck.

[Spectrelight]

Slow drivers - usually old people in Micras.

Cyclists who ride in the middle of the road and won't move over when you drive up behind them.

Spam text massages - I haven't had an accident and I'm not in debt. You think you're going fool me?

People choosing to sit next to me on a half-empty train.

The 'eco' light on transit vans that tells you to change up a gear.

Game requests on Facebook.

I walked past someone like that the other day, she was heavily pregnant, yelling at two of her young children whilst trying to light a cigarette.. and using her bump to push a baby pram!

[sammmy]

I feel so sorry for the kids i had such a nice childhood with really happy memories and its so sad those kids won't have anything like that.
I went to the shop just now and this chav girl was literally dragging her kid along while he was crying, telling him to "****ing stop it".

oh that's a thing i hate, people who casually swear around kids.

Yeah, swearing around small kids is awful.. especially when they don't deserve it in the first place. I remember when I worked in Argos, a very small girl (about 3?) was quietly following her mum as she walked round everywhere, not making a sound at all, good as gold. As I was serving the woman, the little girl hugged against her leg and said "I love you so much mummy" and the mother turned around and yelled "shut up, get out of my ***ing face" I couldn't believe it! I had to excuse myself after I'd finished serving her because it made me so upset

[sammmy]

that's horrible
that reminds me of something i saw like a year ago that stuck with me. some girl was looking at lipsticks in boots and she showed a shade to her toddler daughter saying "do you like that one?" and the girl said something like "yes mummy its pretty" and the mother said to her "well, you would you dumb bitch" what the flying ****.

seems like most people having kids these days are the type of people that should never breed.

[Mr Ploppy]

When people ask "have you booked your holidays yet ?", "what pub do you go to ?", or "what gig did you last go to ?"

What am I supposed to say to that ?

[schneebeli]

Toilet seats that don't stay up. Or worse, toilet seats that stay up for a bit, and then fall down when you're halfway through.

every night is a quiet night in...

[Johnni]

People with prams who dont think ahead and inconvinience people. Had a couple on the tube at rush hr today with the biggest pram in known existance yet the kid is the size of a large potato. So they casually try to come on making no apologies that around 10 ppl have have to move to accomodate them and when i and others had to get off we had to wait for them to move from the door nearly missing our stop.
I saw another couple do the same on a cable car! when on holiday. The cable car was the size of a toilet booth ffs. Carry the kid you lazy shits.

[Mr Ploppy]

I used to enjoy a Fray Bentos steak pie with peas. Haven't had one for years.

[Effervescing Elephant]

Having to install updates every time I turn my PC or games consoles on.

The fact that it's so hard to get shoes in a size 12. I mean, that's not exactly freakishly large for a man these days is it?

[custom_fusion-lqx]

whilst were on about eggheads that woman who won who wants to be a millionaire

she always seems to guess the answer and never really knows, shes an expert an expert at luckboxing.

[schneebeli]

^ I think she's probably being modest a lot of the time, which I quite like really. Also have to say CJ's eye-rolling is the best thing on that show

[custom_fusion-lqx]

the thing with CJ is... his hair

i mean he changes it so often lol
