people that skip queues and then the people behind them who biatch but dont actually do anything about it

Actually, I forgot that one.

You know what really cheeses me off? When you're queueing/waiting and you're the only person waiting, then someone else comes and either stands right on top of you, or stands beside you. Standing beside you really annoys me because they're the type of people that will go before you if you hesitate and not even blink.

These are probably the same people who see a single queue for three tills/ATMs and decide that they can go form their own queue, then huff and puff when people tell them to get in line.

people who put basins in their kitchen sinks and do the washing up in the basin in the sink ,cannot understand it

Along the same lines as that; people who use the sink to wash dishes then don't take the plug out when they're done. Why the f*ck would you leave that dirty water there (sometimes overnight) for the next poor ba*tard to come along and have to fish it out?

Pop Idol/Dancing With The Stars and all that b*llox.

Manchester United/Liverpool/Celtic supporters.

U2

Blatantly bad grammar. I don't mind the odd typo but 'I done it' or 'I seen it' is just ridiculous.

Incorrectness in publications i.e. newspapers. You've got the journalist, the copy editor, the sub editor and finally the editor yet a piece still gets sent to print with wrong names, words missing, misspelling etc.

That's all.....for now.

my idiot flatmate who washes his dishes (having left them accumulate for about 4 days) but then leaves the dirty water in the sink meaning anyone wanting to wash up after him has to fish about in the cold scummy water for the plug.

my idiot flatmate who forgets to turn off the immersion having boiled up the water.

my idiot flatmate who forgets to lock the backdoor after he's been out having a smoke, leaving it open for any undesirable to enter and partake of our valuables.

my idiot flatmate who pees all over the toilet seat and never flushes the toilet after him.

my idiot flatmate. complete fcuking tosser.

Had to sit beside a guy for one class each day for two years during secondary school, and he had the worst BO problem ever. Our teacher during this particular class used to say that we smelled on hot days, and it was all down to this guy solely!

I've never smelled anything so putrid since. It wasn't even normal BO that happens during excercise....was a a thick pugent overpowering cloud that hit you each time he moved on his chair. It would water your eyes.

Almost sick thinking of it now!:mad:

So, what are those things that annoy you..

For me, one of the ones has to be the fact that I'm a student, but more or less have a full time job (nearly 30hours a week) to pay myself through college. And knowing that people getting the grant probably earn more than I do (when my bills and rent are taken away).

bloody students!

i hate SUV's and people who dont say please or thanks.

People who stand in front of the doors when people are trying to get off a crowded Luas.

What's a D2 accent? (I know the D4 one... but not sure of the D2?)

OH I hate that. They know you have change. Although I think they have started to clamp down on it. I heard a bloke telling the to move on before, it came on over th intercom at the Luas stop at Stephen's green.

People that stop in the middle to the road to talk to their mate dispite the green lights and honking horns behind them.

apologies, got a bit confused there, I meant D4 accents, but you usually find people with them working in the 'Morketing' (Marketing) Business, somewhere in D2

people on buses having ultra loud chats with the person next to them ... like take this morning for example, getting on the bus at half 7 in the morning is bad enough but having to listen to the two people in front of you for the next half a hour was head wrecking... it consisted of "what time are your classes starting at?" "oh am oh am oh am oh am **** sake ten o clock" :::: " that Jimmy guy is really annoying isnt he?" Oh MY GOD oh am oh am oh am oh am oh am he is SOOOO annoying?" "what you doing this weekend ?" "oh am oh am oh am oh am oh am Im SO LIke going out , i bought this DEAD FAB top that im just DYING to wera"

it has put me in a bad mood all day!!!

GOD DAM IT!!

when you're opinion of a band is forever tainted by the fact that someone you can't stand is into them.

I'm that way about the 'Chilli Peppers' only because this guy I abhorred from years ago had 'Red Hot Chilli Peppers' on the back of his leather jacket, and I've consequently dissed the band ever since, and maybe 'Audioslave'......well no, actually 'Audioslave' are just shi*e :cool:

Having to stand on a bus at 6.30am, that really grinds my gears.

Ahhhhhhh I getcha

lol

Yes I agree on bus phone calls... seriously if you can't hear the person there's a button to turn up the volume... yelling isn't going to help *you* hear *them*.
And conversations between some people as have been said with the 'omgs' n 'roysh' and whatnot.

:eek: I forgot... I HATE people chewing gum with their mouths open.. what the hell ... use some manners no I don't want to hear the noise of you testing the strength of your teeth on gum.. it's gross!
Add to that
bad table manners
eating with mouth open
blowing nose at the table etc

It makes me feel like a TMNT, knocking people out of my way by swinging my back around as if I had a shell on it. I usually leave a nice tuna sambo in the front pocket for those sitting behind my backpack.

oh dear.... well as you said he's out in 2 months *hug*

and 'tosspot' - I've not heard that in a while --

love it.

When I was in college there was this guy (he was gay and from mayo but that doesn't really matter much) but he'd go around in like the skankiest dirty white holey tshirt you'd ever seen - with ... *vomits* y-fronts that quite frankly didn't look like they'd see a wash lately...

there was another guy who just used to eat the place clean - and MY GOD did he eat loudly...smacked his lips together..... we even used to joke in the hopes he'd get the message...all he said was 'you should see my brother'
...no thanks...

Can't you feel the love?

Ignorant bastards who spit out of their cars while driving. I was standing on the path when a lad drove by me on the furthest lane from me. His window was open and he spat out of it .. right into the windscreen of the car that was passing him on the outside.

People who clap when a plane lands deserve to be tortured in a slow a painful way. Do they applaud the bus driver when he reaches their stop? - I bet not - so why the F**k do they clap like lunatics when the plane lands? Idiots.

:mad:

not defending the clappers but most people thank the bus driver and I'm sure the clappers see the clapping as some sort of thanks... unless you're flying with ryanair of course... then its just unexcusable...
