Little things that you off

Recommended Posts

A slow start to the thread... But I'm willing to have a go at motorists - Anyone care to add to the list? There are many more I'm sure...

 

1. People who don't use the left lane on the motorway.

2. People who can't judge the width of their car, wait for you to drive through a 'narrow' area and then expect a thank you.

3. People who rag it on the motorway/dual carriageway and then more or less stop on country roads (happens a lot in Devon).

4. People who drive down the middle of country lanes and prevent (what would be) safe overtaking.

5. People who can't anticipate other road users, particularly when overtaking on the motorway.

6. HGV drivers who decide to overtake on a hill.

7. People who can't park.

8. People who tailgate when you're in a queue of cars.

9. People who give way to you when they shouldn't, even though there is a clear road behind their car (perhaps being a little bit fussy with this one, I accept)

 

Feel free to critique me, but I've not had an accident yet and have been driving for years, nor have I caused any. I'm a pretty safe driver who doesn't break the speed limit more than the average either.

When I am down the local in my replica shirt (Yes, yes, I know... but that's not what this is about...) only for randoms to come up and say something along the lines of:

 

"Ha'way mate! Sh*te result for you boys today!!!!"

"Excuse me?"

"Sunderland fan, right?"

All of these plus people who drive with fogs on when it's not foggy.

 

I, too, have never had an accident or caused one - go me :)

*****s that keep tapping their brakes as they are crawling along in the middle lane with feck all in front of them

*****s at woodmill that are the 4th or 5th car that jam it up. 3 cars at a time and it runs smoothly FFS

*****s that don't indicate left, as you're waiting to go straight on up Bullar Road, by the station pub

Now I think of it, loads:

 

Knives not being put back in the knife block in the correct order

Milk bottles being used up and not being washed through and put out for the milkman

The milkman delivering me a 2 pint plastic thing of milk because 'unexpected lack of stock' didn't realise cows were part of the 'public sector'

National Lampoons not being shown this xmas

 

Plenty more!!!

I did switch over and the little deaf man was doing sign language and pulling spaggy faces and that ****ed me off even more.

I once watched music vids on ITV about 4am at work and the sign language woman was doing her thing whilst dancing and pulling faces with the music

 

was quite funny

I called in at a rip-off antiques shop to see if they'd got any nice candle sticks (which they hadn't) so the bloke then started telling me where I should go. Despite me saying I was local so knew where his suggestions were he carried on talking. Basically talking sh/t. I couldn't be rude and tell him to shut the f/ck up and let me go.

 

Franks Cousin's post have the same effect on me.

We wall know where you should go - yours posts dont irritate me, they provide good value comedy entertainment - for anyone suffering maybe from a lack of self esteem, they just need to read one of your 'comedy putdowns' , see what an utter complete cock you are and they will feel much better about themselves - seriously your lack of self awareness has such great comedy value ;-)

A TV programme that assumes I have any interest in the following:

 

Dancing of any kind.

So called Celebrity's I've either never heard of, or have forgotten entirely

Celebrity's I have heard of, but relocated to a jungle for some obscure reason

The opinions of Jamie Oliver

The appearance of Jamie Oliver

The existence of Jamie Oliver

 

That is all.

This.

Not so much this, you can normally tell which way they are going.

I expect that I annoy people at supermarket checkouts.

 

I always arrange my purchases so that the heaviest items are first of the the belt and stuff like bread is last. However they always fire the items past the scanner (far too quickly) and this jumbles things up and i'm not a quick packer anyway. I don't give a f/ck and just plod along with my organised packing anyway whilst the till operator twiddles her thumb and everyone else in the queue looks annoyed.

People using the self-scan aisles at supermarkets. If you can't work it out then bugger off to a till with a human being with an IQ greater than 50.

Some of the things you lot have mentioned could be explained quite easily, so you know why they happen.

 

Some I agree with entirely... but then again if you let stuff get to you too much, you'll just end up a bitter and miserable sod, and then you would start appearing on this list yourself. ;)
