Kinda, I've always felt that I was taking in words much more slowly than I could process the information then stumbled upon a Cracked article that mentioned tracking your position and subvocalisation and I understood why. Trying to eradicate those hindrances rather that grasping the gist of a passage at a glance.</off topic>

Irish telly. I can't stand it.

Here here! RTE should just have a fookin black ribbon in the corner for it's logo, it's so damn depressing. The old grannies thrive on that depressing sh1te. And while I'm at it, old grannies annoy me. People who pretentiously makes noises when they eat really fookin annoys me! women who give me the eye in a bar but expect me to make the first move eeks me. Mainstream TV shows, mainstream Radio and mainstream music annoys me so much that I can feel the blood pressure going up. OP, you opened a can of worms in my head. Apart from that I'm quite easygoing.

You seemingly can, but it takes a lot of practice. I personally would miss the voices in my head :pac:

puddles and umbrellas

People who leave the door wide open when the heat is on and it's freezing outside. The big massive security tags that are on clothes footwear etc. that prevent you from comfortably trying on an item prior to purchasing it.
Drawers that are so over-packed that they're wedged shut or items within the drawer fall down behind the back of the dresser.

Actually that vacuum packed plastic packaging thats impossible to remove and wrecks your hands?

That annoys me.

Death and Taxes

People who are mean or nasty just because they can!

Garzard

The UPC remote is always facing the wrong way when I pick it up :mad:

sbsquarepants

People biting their nails - you may as well be chewing on dog shít you dirt birds!

plastic glass

super woofer speakers from your neighbours place/ flatmate's room. I can even hear the music. All I can hear is this stupid monotnous bass. I am fairly young and this should not really annoy me but God almighty it does my head in. I would actually love to see them banned in private residences

kylith

OH constantly leaves about two dozen beans sitting in the end of the pot. Why does he not just put them on the plate? An extra 12 beans or so each won't kill us or make us hideously fat.

UPC Channel 100. I will disembowel Craig Doyle.

It really annoys me when people feel entitled to things, even if they are actually entitled to them, when it's something they really should get over and manage themselves.

And people who leave things on standby even though they're getting up anyway and could easily press the off button on the TV/Radio itself. My mum is particularly bad for this as she insists on leaving the remote beside the TV ("it'll get lost if I don't leave it there"). So she presses the standby button, gets up, walks over to the TV, leaves the remote under the TV, right next to the off button, and then leaves without turning it off.

I used to work with a guy who was in charge of computer maintenance. He was known not to wash after having a leak and yet still went around to all of the pc's in the building doing repairs . Disgusting.

SuperGrover

The 'peel and reseal' lie on packets of ham.

The upc remote is badly designed anyway, the numbers section should be at the bottom, and the play, pause rewind coloured buttons should be at the top. Sky got it right.

would be funny if about 5 of ye grabbed him 1 day after he used the toilet and forced him to wash his hands, he might get the message then.

ElWalrus

People who take an excessively long time to use the ATM when there is a big queue behind them!:mad:

Also, when driving, people who rush to pull out in front of you from a junction because they see you coming, then proceed to drive really slowly, when the most they would have been delayed would have been a couple of seconds! Really does my head in!

ITS_A_BADGER

When someone leaves p1ss on the seat part in a public toilet, when you are bursting to do a shoite, I have to clean it with a tissue while doing the bathroom shuffle to hold it in and then do my business

Rasheed

People with D4/ half American accents accents that had the finest of a culchie accent before.

Talk of 'kids' and 'guys' that were children and lads to them a year ago.

people who are in the Q in the post office for like 10 mins the when they get to the counter and are asked for their care or book or whatever they go oh its here somewhere and spend the next 5 mins looking for it, like you knew you needed it the last 10 mins in the Q, why didnt you have it ready? holding up the whole place now.

People who say 'awesome' for anything. Get a dictionary you fool.

Women who talk non-stop. Give your brain a chance to think before you speak!

Nudity in the gym changing room. For **** sake cover no one wants to see your horrible bollox.

jkell061

Leaving the dish washing brush lying in the sink, instead of putting it beside the sink. Ifyou drain anything in the sink/pour out a cup of tea it goes all the dish brush then Grr!

yeppydeppy

Everything! Almost everything annoys me especially people, most people are idiots.

Slunk

Idiots who quote a massive first post when replying to a topic. Especially when its the first reply. Its ****in obvious your replying to the op. Don't quote unless its a reply to another poster not the op. I'd love to punch these people in the face. Cnuts

gobnaitolunacy

People that insist on 'sharing' their crap music on phones/iPods with everyone on public transport. And feet on seats.
