I have been thinking today about things that really annoy me and must annoy others.

I was on the train on my way to work this morning when the guy next to me started twitching as if to say he wanted to get up, it must have been at least five minutes before the train was due to get to the station.. never the less i got up and let him stand.. then as we were getting off the train he started really pushing me trying to make me get off quicker.. the worst thing was the guy in front of me was blind and had a dog so i couldnt and wouldnt move any quicker... he then got onto the platform and made a call on his mobile - so was clearly in no rush!!! if it wasnt just gone eight in the morning and i wasnt still half asleep i would have said something..

So theres my thing.. what really annoys you?

OMG yeah.. the supermarket thing! Thats a classic!

I shoved past two people on monday in morrisons at halfway and they glared at me- I asked them politely before I do so mind.. and they were too busy talking.

They stood glaring at me, and I turned round and just asked 'What'
That usually does the trick.

14-06-2006, 22:01
Yeah.. well its rude.. there are plenty of places to talk.. and i really dont want to be in a supermarket any longer than i have to...

what really annoys me is close to the first post. A good friend of mine is blind, with a guide dog. yet whenever we are out at the pub or whatever everyone makes a real fuss of the dog but no one ever actuallly talks to him! give him time of day and you'll find he has a wicked sense of humor. dont ask him if you can stroke the dog, ask him how his day's been, guaranteed to make you laugh. He's blind not stupid.

14-06-2006, 22:04
I totally agree, my gran was blind so know how people treated her.. The dogs are great but they are there to to a job.. and not to be messed with it can be an awful feeling for the owner!

When im walking on the pavement and a line of people who know each other are walking very slow in front of me and i cant bloody get past so i have to step onto the road to get past them! Usually happens when im in a hurry too!

People mainly guys revving their cars at the traffic lights thinking their lovely body kit on a fiesta is gonna outrun a sports car :rolleyes:

Customers complain about waiting ages for a drink and when you get to them, their umming and ahhing at what to have?! All that time waiting, could have spent deciding for drink to have!!
Customers asking what lagers there are...Hmmm look at the fridges and the pumps, might be a clue!

Last one!!! Customers ordering a pint of beer, give them beer/bitter and they say *No i ordered a pint of beer* Me, *that is beer, its Stones!* C, *But i wanted Carling* Me, *Carling is lager!* If customers wanted something specific why cant they just say that in the first place!!! :rolleyes:

Nanny state advice on adverts and products.

Always Read The Label;
Drink Sensibly (which is a red rag to a bull with me);
Contains Mild Peril (what was wrong with the film certificates we all grew up with? They gave us an idea of what we could expect to see);
Burger Shown Not Actual Size (this was the Burger King burger that landed on a car. It was to promote King Kong).

All companies enticing you to sue someone because you were thick enough not to see the edge of the swimming pool and you fell in, even though you knw you can't swim. I'd sooner such parasytical companies would go bust. They are costing us all more in our premiums...,

DFS - another bloody sale which 'must end Monday'. Yeh, yeh, yeh. I'll get my shoes on.

Adverts which are louder than the programme you have been watching.

The obsession with the weather on the news, both national then local.

I could go on forever.

Blimey - seems like a few people from Worksop getting annoyed today. I can't pass comment tho - I'm in Sheffield and pretty much everything annoys me. Specifically today the fact I have a sore throat (I can't be ill - I have too many things to do!), I'm bored at work as usual and I want to know where summer has gone...

NOOOOOOOO your not, your behind it 100% you can't be anymore than that unless there is 2 of you.

Told you it was silly, and if my other half reads this she'll laugh because she thinks its mad to get worked up by something so silly.

Told you it was silly, and if my other half reads this she'll laugh because she thinks its mad to get worked up by something so silly.

The key question when someone says they give 110% or 150% or whatever is to ask % of what? If 100% is the amount of effort the average person puts into a task, when you say you're going to give 150% it means the amount of effort you're going to put in is 1.5 times that of the average person. So although such statements may seem impossible there is a certain rationality so long as the terms are clearly defined.

I'll stop there as I'm 200% sure I'm being far too pedantic! :)

and the other day i was walking home and heard 2 of em talking about where would be best to stand to ask people for money - but it was the way they were talking - "lets go down to mcdonalds and see how much we can fleece outta the idiots"

wish the council or the police would do something about this bunch of dirty robbing scally scum !

This happens to me in the street, let alone on escalators.

I know what causes it.

Two people are walking along, one says something to the other.

In order to reply, they have to stop first.

They can't do two things at the same time.

Men or women.

It doesn't matter - there's often one of each.

I have to either stop or do an impression of a winger going round a full-back otherwise I crash into them. :confused:

People in the supermarket who 'park' their trolley while the go off to another isle - why not just take your trolley with you :loopy: especially when you park your trolley in front of stuff I want to get to. Oh and on the subject of supermarkets - why do they stick crates of stuff on the floor (usually fruit and veg) meaning I can't stand near enough to the shelf to reach the stuff I want? And why have stuff on shelves so high that they are out of reach?

People who either don't use their indicators at all, or leave their indicators on so no-one has a clue where they are really going :suspect:

I've just thought of another one after going into the supermarket this morning!
Why doe's it take two people to walk round the store and do the shopping, when actually only one of them is shopping and the other one walks round in a stupor and blocking others shoppers way, usually shoulder to shoulder with the other person.
Hang on, I noticed another thing.
The person who staggers round the store with the only intention of reading special offer adverts out at the top of their voice.
You know the ones I mean, weaves from side to side in front of you with a blank look and then suddenly flies accross to a shelf, like a moth to a light bulb or flies to a pile of you know what, and then states in a loud drawn out manner, 'Oh look, Buy one get one free' as though they have just discovered the worlds best kept secret!
I am seriously thinking about replacing some of these signs with my own and instead of having 'Buy One Get One Free' shelf adverts, I would have ones that they could also read out loud such as; 'I am the worlds biggest retard',
'Please attach my nether regions to the main electricity supply' and 'If I had a certain substance for brains I would not have enough to fill a nappy'
Ooh, I'm glad iv'e got that off my chest.
Just off to do a bit more shopping and will see if I can find something else to gripe about.
Will keep you posted.

The quote means 99% of all the different species of bacteria that occur in the household rather than the amount, that depends how thorough u are!

Anyway my complaint is when a 15yr old scruffy chav gets on a bus and thinks its a good idea to light up at the back of the bus noooooooo!

All the family in the supermarket huddled in front of the chillers deciding which yoghurt to buy so nobody else can reach anything - why doesn't one parent stay home with the kids?

The vision of a poor unsupecting women being whacked repeatedly by a backpack that is attached to the offending party made me chuckle!

I know what you mean, but what really annoys me is when people stand in a queue to pay for something in a shop, and then seem surprised when they are asked to pay, and start searching handbag/pockets for wallet - why not just get it out while you are queueing?you stole mine. my current list of stuff that hacks me off includes that one and the following but i reserve the right to change it at any time

if someone looks at their watch then you ask them the time and they look again. whats that about? did it escape your goldfish like memory in the millisecond it took me to ask?

people who don't want to break into a £20 note. FFS just hand the money over.

if i'm washing up kindly choose a mug off the draining board and not a fresh one from the cupboard. its only a tiny thing but if the GF keeps doing it she may end up single!

really really thick people. if you can't be bothered to learn anything don't talk to me

anybody who says "don't turn round but look who just walked in"

people who ask something then before you can answer say "i'll tell you why i ask" then talk solidly for 15 minutes answering the question

sheilas wheels adverts

really small yappy dogs that think they are rottweilers

old people who think that by being old they are granted certain priviliges

the fact my boss has blatent favourites at work

doing that annoying spasm when you go to switch something off and you accidentally turn it back on again

people asking me for money in town without offering a good or service in return

the fact i can't sit in a beer garden all day and watch the world go by in this gorgeous weather

if you have feet like a camel kindly keep them covered

when you go into a shop and theres nobody around to help you

when you go into a shop and 3 assistants jump on you

people who eat well done steak

vegetarians who eat chicken and fish. really? i'm a non smoker except for cigars and pipes

people who raise their voice at the end of a sentance to make it into a question. its annoying and its terrible use of language. stop it. just because it looks good on neighbours doesn't make it acceptable

if you are are discussing a film/book/tv programme with someone and they reveal the cunning plot twist at the end before you've seen it

being in one of those moods where you genuinely can't find anything to entertain yourself with

menu speak - pretentious menu's that use a whole series of nouns, verbs and adjectives to describe food. things like 'a medley of vegetables' what pray exactly does that mean? 'jus' which is gravy anything that sits on 'a bed of' or is 'nestled into' or any of that. its all just a waste of words and time and isn't accurate. it makes me furious!!!!!!!!!!!:mad: :rant: :mad: :rant:

which genius decided that it to sell pringles at cinema's? is there a more inappropriate food other than crisps to eat in a cinema? what next, lobster complete with claw crackers?! while we're on the subject aren't the portion sizes in cinema's ridiculously over the top? enough popcorn to hide in, a cup for your coke big enough to irrigate enough land to grow crops for an african village

People who say stuff like "Ooh you've never tasted anything like it..."

How the **** do they know what I've tasted? It's usually followed by
"It's to die for!" - GOOD! I'll buy you 2! Just ******* DIE!

There.

Morris Dancers...aaaaarrrrgggghhh.
With their balloons on a stick and their "walk 3 paces forward, hit sticks, walk 3 pace backwards, hits sticks, hey nonny bloody no". And their bloody bells on their bloody legs. And why can't they put the bells on when they get there? Oh no, they have to put them on before they get out of the car and then walk 2 miles to where they "perform" sounding like a herd of Blackpool donkeys on their way to the beach. It's all an excuse to get pi**ed so why can't they be honest and just go and get pi**ed, without subjecting us all to their "ching ching ching clonk, and now we'll form a star out of the sticks".

Blimey, i could have written that, looks like me and thee are on the same page brother.

Other gripes:
*I hate DeCaf coffe - i mean surely that defeats the purpose?
*On the same lines, i also hate cakes that are '99% fat free' - you just mean that it's smaller than a proper cake.... bloody weight watchers meals, only 100 calories per meal, yet you need 5 to fill you up!
*Automated phone calls to tell me i've won a fitted kitchen if i call a number in Tiwan at £50 a minute
*Packets that say 'new and improved', either it's a new recpie, or an improvement on an existing one, it can't be both

if i'm washing up kindly choose a mug off the draining board and not a fresh one from the cupboard. its only a tiny thing but if the GF keeps doing it she may end up single!
On that line, if you want some toast, please take the bread from the pack and kindly put it away. My fella thinks it's fine to then leave the loaf out for it go stale within 2 hours, i he keeps doing this HE may end up single....

People who feel it's their duty to inform you that you have a spot, even though you've spent half the morning trying to cover it up!

People who send you to the bar to ask for a fictional drink, so that you make fool of yourself infront of the barmaid!

Vultures who home in on any word you mispwonounce or use wongly and make a big issue of it!

People with skin coloured hair and shiney heads/noses!

People who use in-jokes and actions when socialising in mixed company, or on public forums!!!

when the bloody council clean off all my peices

Your "peices"? do you mean your silly graffiti disfiguring buildings and making everywhere look scruffy? the same pieces that the rest of us have to pay to have removed? those pieces?

THCAyle is a candidate for something that annoys me then!

And don't even get me started on all the other things ...

People who think they're better than other people just because they've chosen different lifestyles.

Has it ever occured to these idiots that the person they feel superior to might be happy in their chosen way of life? :roll: An overwhelming desire to prove self-superiority can only lead to bad places. ;)

The adverts on Classic FM that are mini dramas.

One loses the point of the advert after a while & it becomes tediously annoying each and every time afterwards.

Deal Or No Deal contestants.
What was that on there this afternoon?
Bianca 'Oooh, look at me, aren't I wonderful, Iv'e got children, I bet no one else has ever had any children, I think I look like a model, I've got a wonderful husband, Oh look wonderful Mummy is in the audience' this afternoons contestant really did excel her self in top quality showing off.
From the start she did nothing but show off, brag, grimace and generally make a fool of her self.
Oh how we laughed when she won the grand sum of £2000 and I know that it is not big or clever to laugh at her for winning this ammount, but some people really do need bringing down to earth.
I hear you say 'Don't watch Deal Or No Deal' if you don't like it'.
I will watch it because it is the only excercise I get, throwing the television out of the window.
Doe's anyone know a good glazing firm?
Anyone looking for 12 badly damaged colour televisions, free of charge, you can collect them from my front garden.
Pah, I'm going out now to see what else I can pick fault with!

It does'nt take much to recognize a spoilt brat who should have had some parental advice (Shoe) to bring them into line when they were a sprog!
Most people in the real world will agree with me.

adverts on T.V , all adverts, if i want To buy something i will go to a shop, and choose for myself. Also Too much choice in shops, take shampoo for instance...aaaagh which one, i just want a shampoo that washes hair with some efficiency and doesn't cost the earth..........ooooohh and walking through Boots or similar, the smell, and i always get caught in the 'fallout' from some 'orange skinned' blonde who is 'testing' all the perfumes, totally unaware of the people around her.
People who wait for ages in a queue, tutting, then when it's their turn take ages getting their money or whatever out, usually women i'm afraid.

People who take tiny tots on long shopping trips and then get stroppy with them when the little thing gets whingy after sitting in a buggy for three hours eating a sausage roll.......................

I must stop now and go and take some 'KALMS'.

Things that annoy me at the moment

Adverts:
1/ That indigestion one with the dancing police woman directing traffic
2/ The Lloyds Bank one with all the people looking gormlessly about then the pretty girl sees the sky and goes ga ga
3/ The one with blue and yellow people stuck on a desert island - don't even remember what it's about let lone the company
4/ Cillit Bang - oh deity of your choice help us!
5/ Any advert which goes on the lines of "if you do this you may suffer from something quite innocuous - if you use our product it may be of use in preventing it" or "a survey (of three people) shows our product works in 33% of cases
6/ Adverts on the lines of "my hair is nourished and shines like an arc furnace, I no longer have any problems in my life at all, others stare at me in awe, I am now utterly perfect in every way.":sad: :shakes:

People:
1/ Who don't indicate:rant:
2/ Who drive round in clapped out cars with sound systems worth far more than the car sharing their musical tastes with the rest of us:huh:
3/ Thirtysomething women in small cars with a child or two in the back flying past you doing 90mph or more:mad:
4/ Who walk four abreast on pavements causing you to have to step onto the road to avoid them
5/ Who say something followed by "you know what I mean?":D

Miscellaneous:
1/ "Low fat". Tastes like emulsion paint or cardboard or sawdust or any combination of the three:gag: :gag: :gag:
2/ Posters who don't chek ther spelin:rant:

Inconsiderate drivers who park their cars on the pavement when fetching little Johnny from school. Drivers who dont indicate and then shout at you when you step out in the road. People who assume everybody likes to drink alcohol. People who believe we all adore football. Banks and other financial and legal institutions who believe everybody has either a passport or driving licence. Virgin Megastores and others who loudly claim to have everything that the music lover requires, then tells me that they dont have any of the 30plus items I am looking for. Dixons and High Street stores selling "top quality" hi fi:hihi: MP3 players being sold as true stereo sound :hihi: People using words like Innit, Fink, Fwee, Fort etc, pure idleness! Time for a lie down and a Mogadon!:D
