Things that annoy you


After the events of yesterday I've been thinking about what really get's my goat, get's me wound up and go

Lane hoggers - those that sit in the middle lane for no reason on the motorway

People who move from a city/town environment into a farming community and think that how the farming community treat their animals is cruel

These are my main 2 bugbears but I'm sure I can come up with more

Re: Things that annoy you


ppl who dont know what their indicators are.ppl who dont know their coulors (on traffic lights)
4x4 drivers in the middle of the city (shiney clean as well) they say how do i tow my caravan once a year ( hire a car)
ppl who have no concideration for others, and i incluide teenagers in that lot.
telephone systens that make u press loads of buttons, and when u finally get to the dept u want u get a message saying the line is experiencing a high volume of callers at the moment please ring back then cut u off, or whats worse u hang on for ages u get through and THEY CUT U OFF
oh is there a limit here as i could go on for ages.
ppl who dont poop scoop after their dogs
id better stop now.

Re: Things that annoy you


Um - well one thing is people who are soooo impatient. Tut-tuting in the supermarket queue if it takes a milisecond longer than they think it should, desperate to overtake where it's not safe, etc etc. What are they going to do with those precious 48 seconds .... discover the secret of the universe?, find a cure for cancer?, resolve the Middle East crisis?, ..... or get home, microwave a ready meal and watch Big Brother???
I find that if there's a glitch in a queue I just turn and speak to the person behind me and the time just whizzes by.
I'm sure there's lots of other things - I can be a real 'grumpy old woman' if I put my mind to it!

Re: Things that annoy you


For starters........

Definately people who are rude and bad mannered........
Cold callers....why won't they take no for an answer...
Shop assistants who continually talk to someone else while they are serving you
People who don't seem know that the words 'please' and 'thank you' exist

That is what my mum does! as soon as she gets in a Queue and its not moving. she starts tutting...really loud!
I'm as patient as ever and tell me mum to be quiet. then she says ''No I wont'' really loud. Pffft. Embarrassment of what.

Inefficient people. Very much so at this precise moment, and my stepmother tops the line.

Thoughtless mobile phone users, especially the ones on the train who think it's important to relay exactly how many minutes from such and such a station they are (all in a very loud voice of course!)
