Lorry drivers that block both lanes when in traffic so no one can get past. Utter utter c***s.

Don't understand why people get upset at motorcyclists passing in traffic, as long as they do it at a sensible speed good luck to them.

Awarded by the government and nothing to do with teachers. We had all ours in a week after the students had finished so your argument is somewhat redundant but 10/10 for trying.

 

I'll take that. I only gave myself an 8

 

This probably explains why O-level marks aren't worth the paper that they are written on. Surely Trousers should have been given a 10*.

If we are talking GCSE maths then out of 10 he should be given 11. ;)

People that just seem incapable of using their indicators when changing lanes or coming round a roundabout. Am I just meant to guess what you are going to do?!!

People when they pay for things on card who then proceed to put their whole body over the machine so you cant see their pin, its obvious lad if you are paying for your bread and crumpets which totals to £1.95 on a bit of plastic you are skint and a bit of a tramp to boot, pay with some readies you bellend, you are holding up the queue with your **** credit rating crap card.

Pretty sure that's not true.

 

It's in the Highway Code 155, however it's for single track roads only technically.

But you'd like to think most would do that on two lane roads with cars parked either side eh.

I was told that if the parked car was your side then you gave way.

People who don't understand when to use the word "myself". This has become shockingly common.

 

Myself is a reflexive pronoun, meaning it is generally used shortly after the word I. I wash myself, I can do it myself etc.

 

So why are there so many morons saying things like "David and myself think that...", "It's just Tom and myself here" and other such pieces of idiocy? Do you think it sound clever? It makes you sound like a ****.

 

The word you're looking for is usually I or me. If you're not sure which one to use, say the same sentence without including the other person, then it becomes obvious. You wouldn't say "Me went to the shops." so don't say "John and me went to the shops."

Annoying things that people say

Companies that annoy me

mainly due to all of the above terms of phrase used by there silly managers

People at the baggage reclaim carousel who have to stand right next to the belt. Stand back you p!llocks and let everyone see what's coming. And don't blame me if I swipe you with my luggage when heaving it off the belt.

People who take ages at cash machines. Put your card in, type in 4 numbers, press cash, press the amount, press enter, grab your cash and f*ck off. That's it, that's all you have to do. Should take seconds.

 

The worst of the lot are the people who stand in the way of the machine blocking it from use even after they have their cash, usually some daft old bint taking ages to put it away in some stupidly big purse.

 

And who the hell needs a receipt to tell them how much money they have just taken out?

People who drive at 30mph in a 50.

People who drive at 30mph in a 40.

People who drive at

Old people on the roads.

Customers who turn up at 9:03 and expect to be served when the sign clearly states we close at 9pm. Fuck off

The irony is that most people reading this thread can find a few thing's they find annoying and a few thing they do that other's find annoying....

 

Mine are:

- misuse of apostrope's

- misunderstanding of irony

Compound words. Chunnel was the first one I remember when the Channel Tunnel was being built. Now we have mizzle, guesstimate and there is a special place reserved in hell for those people who use the compound word, staycation. I think people who use compound words are funts! ;) Also Americanisms that are creeping in to the English language, such as 'moving forward' 'touching base' 'take a rain check' etc. Oh and 'Team GB' got on my nerves during last years Olympics.

I can't stand Team GB either, makes me cringe with embarrassment at the naffness of it.

 

I don't like pedants but the correct term is portmanteau words. Throw up your bile at this lot:

You need to get out more if that kind of thing winds you up. I myself couldn't care less.

I blame marketing people. There's a role at my work as Head of Ideation..... #### knows what it is, but it pays well.

Same here and that included on hills.

 

It an old courtesy for when you're on a tight or single track hill, it takes less effort to roll down hill compared to a vehicle stopping and restarting on an upwards slope. Common sense really.

I hate the miss-spelling of Apostrophe.

 

I also hate the miss-use of capital letters.

The white van man that rammed into the back of me while I was minding my own business at the Winnall roundabout on Friday was pretty annoying. His 'c'est la vie' attitude to the incident even more so!! No; pay attention to what you are doing you irresponsible ****!

People turning left from the right hand lane (Esp on A36 /M27 Ower roundabout heading from Salisbury)

Supermarket bread offers 80p for 1 or 2 for £1.00 - why should I not get a deal because I can keep my d!ck in my pants, only suits those with massive bread eating families

Those cyclists riding on the road next to a designated cycleway/Pathway - going past the Ford factory for example

 

Other than that, not a lot really.

 

Go for the bread deal,baby - then freeze the unwanted loaf for later.

 

With love,

 

Nigella

Personally, I think that all of your objections are perfectly valid - let's run them up the flag pole & see who salutes them !
