    What petty thing's in life really grind your gears. Sitting out having dinner last night and I suddenly became very aggrovated by a guy sitting accross from me eating like a god damn pig. The noise of him eating was discusting chomping up and down with his mouth open, guzzling, spitting everywhere , crunching. I actually wanted to get up and smash his ****ing face into the table about ten times and throw him out the 3 story window...it's good to vent.

    C*nts in 10mph tractors on country roads. Even bigger c*nts in 10mph cars on country roads. There is one guy in particular who i meet on my way home from work everyday. I've often been tempted to ram him just so i could get a few days of peace when he's getting his car fixed

    I'm with you on this.

    But we have to wonder, what do we do to piss other people off?

    There's a mini-bus that I get stuck behind about 3 mornings a week on the N81. All good and well if you're the second or third car in the row and can overtake, but a f*cking NIGHTMARE if you're 20th back in the row of equally frustrated drivers all stuck behind him.

    His company name and number are on the van and I've often been sorely tempted to ring them and tell him to hurry the f*ck up.

    I have a habbit of blowing smoke in peoples direction sometimes which although doesn't bother me (being a smoker and all) I know others don't like it. Was told I did it (never noticed) the other week and been making sure not to do it any more.

    I split up with a really nice guy for this reason. Perfectly nice in every other way, but I felt like running screaming from the table whenever he would eat.

    People (usually 2 or 3) who walk slowly on a path and then just stop, not moving out of the way for anyone.

    People who rev their engines or who let up the handbrake to get you to cross the road quicker.

    Drunk wild women - they trash everything, usually insinuate fights between lads and then get away with the lot of it.

    Hippies

    People who start fights for no other reason than to make themselves look hard. I know a few lads like this and since they're tiny I call it "The Small Man Syndrome"

    People who think they know more about your profession than you do.

    People who quote Family Guy and Monty Python constantly

    I have a habbit of blowing smoke in peoples direction sometimes which although doesn't bother me (being a smoker and all) I know others don't like it. Was told I did it (never noticed) the other week and been making sure not to do it any more.

    A fella I was in college with (Bob) broke his friends nose for doing that! Before the smoking ban came in they were sitting in a bar and yer man was unintentionally and probably unknowingly blowing smoke in Bob's face. Bob asked him to watch where he was blowing the smoke; that it was going straight into his face. The friend did it again, but this time on purpose. Bob told him to seriously stop or he'd smack him if he did it again. The friend did it again. Bob threw a punch and landed yer man flat on his back with a broken nose. Lesson learned!

    Funny you should mention that , I saw a guy in a certain north dublin supermarket completely abuse a deli assistant last week for nothing at all here's how it went.

    Guy: " Can I have a chiken roll, egg mayo on it yeah?"
    Assistant: Yeah sure...

    (Goes to get it)

    Guy: "Is that alright??cheeky ****er...blah blah"

    WTF like????

    I am with the eating folk. So much so at lunch times at work I am very selective about who I sit with.

    When queueing in the bank or Post Office and someone is standing about 1 inch behind you, urrgghh, I can't stand that feeling of someone brushing against me. BACK OFF people, its not going to make the queue move faster, but it does significantly increase your chances of getting a smack. Or in my case, a large handbag being swung over my shoulder and bashing you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,006 ✭✭✭WithCheesePlease


    Ignorant fvckers that don't give a sh!t about anyone else or their surroundings. Like...

    - people that drop litter cos they're too fvcking lazy to hang onto it til they pass a bin.
    - people that steal from other people, be it cars, pick pocketing, whatever else or breaking into their houses and stealing their hard earned and sometimes irreplaceable positions cos they're too fvcking lazy to get anything for themselves honestly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,658 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Girls who walk slowly. If you're in the same group, it takes an age to go anywhere, and if you're stuck behind them, its probably worse. They put no effort into trying to go a bit faster, its the one thing I really hate!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,006 ✭✭✭WithCheesePlease


    oh - and bad drivers. Was driving up from Cork last weekend on the M8 and there was a fella on an empty road driving in the over-taking / fast lane in front of me doing the flat 120 with no one inside him or on the road ahead. I came up behind him and patiently waited for him to pull over. Nothing. I flashed him once. Nothing. I flashed him a few more times. He gestures back to me to go around the inside of him!!! I was in a rage a drove along side him on the inside to gesture at him that he should be in the slow lane. He roars back at me and speeds up. Then slows to his 120 again. In the end I was forced to under take him. Prick.

    Airport security with their petty and increasingly stupid demands and sour faced attendants. Like: Making people take off their shoes and walk barefoot on dirty carpets that thousands of others from all over the world have already walked barefoot on. Like taking a pair of spring loaded nail clippers off an old lady in case she hijacks the 'plane with them. Like demanding the forfeit of a cigarette lighter, so that you have to go buy a new one just round the corner in the duty free. Like dumping a plastic tray down in front of you and grunting "take off your belt." Like the endless harassment over loud speakers telling you you cannot smoke, face death by a thousand cuts if you leave your bag alone for a moment ("Passengers are reminded...." in an irritating, recorded female voice like a nagging mother in law). And the final stupidity at our local airport, insisting that the pilot goes through the same security procedure. If he is going to hijack the bloody aircraft, who in hell is going to stop him?

    People who exhibit the crowd dynamics of sheep: eg people who congregate/stop to chat in busy areas oblivious to the fact that they are causing a large obstruction.

    You see it a lot in pubs, where groups of people assemble in walkways, while open areas are available 5 feet away


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    People who just don't get it. You explain it to them and the following day they are clueless again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 747 ✭✭✭tweety76


    People who suffer from poor me/I'm a victim syndrome. ...who complain but won't do anything to change their situation just complain and moan about it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 553 ✭✭✭suckslikeafox


    Ignorance (as in stupidity and rudeness) really annoys me

    Also the loud eaters, lived with 2 in college and spent a year judging my dinner time to avoid them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,399 ✭✭✭✭r3nu4l


    People who sit in pubs giving out about the price of the beer they've just paid for. Morons! If you don't like the price don't go there. Get off your arse and protest with your feet.

    Drink at home with your mates, play cards or Playstation or just sit and chat about how great it is to have a pint you didn't pay €5 for instead of sitting in a pub like a sheep and bending over and paying when asked for your €5. :rolleyes:

    The culture of ignorance really irritates me. I despise people who seem to celebrate the fact that they know nothing about politics, geography, science or current affairs.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,006 ✭✭✭PurpleBerry


    1) People gawping at you while you are eating/trying to eat. this is not a zoo and I am not the main attraction, thank you!

    2) People who continue to bombard you with questions even though you are trying to change the subject because it's a sensitive issue. And linked to that, people who seem to think they deserve an answer to their probing questions. "Where are you from?" "Where did you come from before that?" "What part?" Fück off! None of goddamn business!

    3) People who can't get your fücking name right. I am not Lisa, nor am I Nessa, Melissa or Anita. Use your ears Neesa. Neesa. Neeeeeeeeeeesa!!

    4) People who make phonecalls during lunch and glare at someone who dares to, I dunno, eat her lunch at lunchtime. (Fair enough I'm eating crisps today because I lost my handbag and had to raid my little desktop money tin to buy [i[something[/i] for lunch. Trust me, I'd rather be eating a sandwich like the one you're about to tuck into)

    5) People who ask you "Where are the pens kept?" during lunch when you're trying to eat. Duh, I dunno, why don't you try the big cupboard where all the other stationary is kept? I like to call it the Stationary Cupboard, I'm hoping the name will catch on.

    6) People who push their prams into you so that you fall over yourself trying to avoid kicking the poor child in the head.

    7) People. Just, just people!!
    :-) :-)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,635 ✭✭✭token56


    Story Toppers, you know the ones, you tell a story then have to tell one just to top yours.
    People who blow smoke into my face, if you do it I reserve the right to smash your head in.
    To go along with other people bad drivers, in particular people who dont understand how to use f**king indicators and when to use them, its no good pulling out and then indicating, also drivers who dont know how the f**l a roundabout works.
    People playing ringtones/music loudly on public transport or just in general to be honest.

    Enourmous fat people on buses who smell bad.


    Buildres throwing up barriers all over roads and telling you where you can cross or walk.


    People on Bikes who take every red light as a chance to weave and dodge their way through cars and people so they can get up to the line and slowly puter on as cars and normal people have to dodge to avoid killing them.

    Junkies who want to bum a cigerrate than ask for some money aswell for a hostel for the night.
