What makes you angry? traffic makes me mad

Mergred 2 threads.

Wasn't Paddy McGinty a Regimental Mascot Goat Comic Strip Character? Where do I remember that from? or is it a fantasy?

1.Cars - they were great when a few people had them. Now it has become sheer, lethal, noisy, choking lunacy. We design our cities and towns around cars, we fetish our cars, and most of the time they spend sitting on the roadside cluttering the place up, gaudy chunks of steel littering the kerbsides and vast asphalt deserts known as car parks.

Then we spend most of our time sitting in them moving along at 4mph, or nearly being killed by that cretin on the M42, or being marooned on the A5 at night.

They eat money. 2nd hand cars especially.

Because of cars we have becoming almost completely reliant on Oil to keep our economy going. This has given rise to some problems here and there in the world.

We keep building more roads and the volume of traffic keeps increasing. This, quite literally, cannot go on much longer.

They were a great invention, certainly, and there is much joy to be had in driving and owning the right car, but as a personal transportation device, they are so hopelessly obsolete.

2.Litter and litterbugs. Flaying and salting is too good for them. (without trial I might add :D )

3. Cheap interbrew lager (carling heineken, and anything brewed under licence in the UK but with a foreign name so you'll think it's imported). This stuff is not only foul, it is bad for you

4. People who talk to you with a tone of voice indicating that you need to feign surprise at the end of every sentence. It's so tiring saying "really?" again and again. Please stop now.

1. Boy racers.

3. People that stand under bus/tram shelters with their umbrella up.
4. Teenagers that lack the ability to speak correctly. Grunt, grunt!!

10. President Bush.


And the list could go on and on, but I will save you all the time by not including it. :bigsmile:

1* People who walk down the covered portion of the moor (the right hand side - Debenhams) with brollies up and it's raining. Forcing me to walk in the rain.

2* People who block my drive way (yes I park a car in my drive, but we have another which doesn't fit).

3* Inconsiderate neighbours who are over noisy

4* Kids playing footy on the road and there ball keeps hitting my car/house/garden etc

Why not start your own thread on it and start us off!

I will. It probably takes a bit longer to think of all the things which make you happy and smile!
Most people find it easier to moan.

No time today, but will do shortly - promise.
:P

I'd have to say there are lots of good gripes on here.

One thing that rattles me is the way kids who are caught by the Police when they've been joyriding, etc don't seem the slightest bit bothered by it all.

Bring back the stocks I say - nicely placed in front of city hall - with an ample supply of rotten veg...

People who think you’re a boy racer just because you have a modded car especially as I am a girl!

Ist people (as in racist/sexist etc)

Loan leaflets that always fall out of the paper/magazine in the newsagents and you can never seam to pick them up the first time!

People who think they have the right to jump queue’s just because they’re late for work/appointments etc.

Parents who just stop infront of the school gates just to let there kid get out on a main road in rush hour and parents who park there car just where the yellow zig zag line ends but its still in the most inconvenient place!

People in chapeltown who park in the bus stop while they go chose a video/collect a pizza/go to the spar when there is a car park behind the shops!

People who think I should be able to write as quick as they speak and then get angry when I ask them to slow down.

People who purposely get into the wrong lane just so they don’t have to wait in traffic queues and then expect me/others to let them in (this gets me especially mad at the ‘forgemasters’ roundabout going up past the big royal mail place (brightside) in rush hour).

Yes, people who leave their phone on while in the cinema esps when they are pleasantly asked to turn them off.

People who won’t let kids be kids!

whys that then? do you prefer women to be restricted in their movements by wearing skirts (and shoes)? trousers are much more practicle.

what bugs me: finding a package holiday for £89 to the canaries for next week and not being allowed to pay a single supplement (by the tour operator) - none of my mates can/want to come...:sad:

You're retired you miserable old gits. You've got Mon - Fri, all day, without kids. You can get up and go to bed when you want.

Your coughing, farting and belching ruins my summer days. Also,..aren't you supposed to be deaf?!!!:mad: :mad:

Ohhh yes... or those who park inconsiderately then justify it with "it's OK, I'll only be 5 minutes". But I want to park now , not hang round for 5 minutes while you "pop" somewhere.

Grrrr!

Shop assistants who start scanning your shopping and piling it up on the other side, despite the fact that the previous customer is still rushing to pack their shopping, replace their purse/wallet, etc. Grrrr.... :rant:

...and people who start rearranging your stuff on the conveyor so they can get their stuff on! How rude is that?!

Ooooooh yes... that is pretty annoying. Shop rage! :P Actually another favourite gripe of mine is when you pay and the assistant gives you your change as notes first, then piles all the coinage on top. Arghh! Admittedly my own cackhandedness comes into play here, but I nearly always try and tip the coins into my purse, only to spill them all over the floor, so whilst desperately clinging on to any notes and of course, frantically trying to pack my shopping into bags whilst the next person's shopping rapidly piles up next to it I'm also trying to gather up my change from whenever it has landed... :roll:

In shops what pees me of the most is when they put your loaf of bread, which is the only thing I'm buying, in a plastic bag.!!!!

It's already in a bag. How much waste and landfill?
How many more bloody plastic bags do they want to see blowing by the pavement in the breeze and clogging the drains, stuck to the higher branches of the trees?

Another simular one about watching a film or dvd is my mate is a big fan of little Britain and I had to endure a dvd of the whole series while we were at theres, and to my annoyance kept saying the lines which were about to come up in a welsh accent.
Grrrr, it was pointless watching it.

.....rustlers and they nick my horse's as well!!

) people spitting in the streets

2)kids going up and down in lifts 3) shop assistants not being very helpful

4) getting to a checkout only to be told it is closed

5)same old films on the television

6)stacks of unwanted mail

7) dog mess

8) people parking on double yellow lines and getting away with it

9) perssons parking in disabled places

The neighbour's billy, horny little creep that he is...

I'm normally pretty easy going, however, the things that have really annoyed me of late are the personal correspondence I have received from the Labour party regarding my politics and how well they are doing... A pre-emptive strike, I am sure, for the forthcoming election.

I am not a member of the Labour party, I have never voted for them in my life, yet they waste taxpayers money bombarding me and my home with a plethora of literature which joins the rest of the junk mail I receive - in the green recycling box.

Both my husband and I have received a personal letter each, as well as the leaflets from our local candidate. I dare say we'll have several more before the election.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... Oi Bliar, take your leaflets, your pamphlets and your booklets and your news sheets and shove them, oh so carefully, but ever so deliberately, UP YOUR AR$£.

People who demonstrate against phone masts, but use a mobile phone themselves.

The same people that complaint because phone masts are damaging theirs kid’s health, yet they smoke in front of them.

People who claim they can drive better when they have been drinking.

The thing that gets me is when you agree to do a job for free as a favour for an aged person and then they do nothing but complain or try to start demanding from you as if they were employing you as a slave.

I call it 'My Little Builder' syndrome.

People who can't conduct a conversation without dropping in "the really amusing" thing that their kid did. Your child is not gifted, it is not special, I don't want to hear about it as I have heard fifteen variations upon the theme today alone.

Dithering fools who lurk in high pedestrian traffic locations waiting to jump in to my path and obstruct my journey with their no adgenda foolishness.

Really, really scummy people who behave in such wildly unacceptable ways it is unreal. Such people make my teeth itch they annoy me that much.

People who can't take no for an answer - no amount of bleating, whining and begging is going to change the answer.

Degenerates who get paid to do nothing. MY tax pays for their scratch cards, white lightening, bingo & bookie trips.

People who feel the need to discuss their medical problems in public. I don't want to hear about some old biddy's smear test - pack it in it's just wrong!

Beggars.

Traffic wardens (They take too much pleasure in their job!)

Barmen who instead of observing pub ettiquette and serving in order of when individuals get to the bar, make a beeline for women/girls with their cleavage hanging out and make me wait longer for a beer.

Forceful charity workers - No you're not getting my bank details, no I don't care and no I don't want to know. If I want to donate to a cause then I will, no amount of tin rattling will change that.

Oikish people who can only talk at 100 + Db ie "Tyler, put them biscuits down or'all bray thee!". Nuff said.

Two faced ba****ds.

Liars.

Anyone who can't accept responsibility for their actions and blame society, others, their upbringing, their environment. You did it, not your parents, not society YOU! Face up to it and pay the price.
