    dont mind the feet on seats but bags on seats is a joke, was on the train l8ly and an old woman(cough free travel) had a few bags on the seat,then another woman got on and she went to sit down on the seat with the bags on it, the old woman made a half arsed attempt to move them, then the other woman had to stand the whole way to dublin.

    When you get on the Train or Bus just seek out the people with bags on seats even if there's other free seats,the reaction from them is priceless

    Nothing annoys me most than when I come across a quality thread and have a reply that guarantees loads of thanks but a load of posters got there first and your stuck on the 9th page or so.

    Motorists not using their indicators who just randomly veer off the road or a roundabout exit. Its pure selfishness "im in my own world,I'm going where I want to go without warning anyone and I dont give a bollix about anyone else having to adapt to my **** driving".

    People dumping christmas trees. FFS, get an artificial tree if you can't dispose of it properly :mad:

    people who can't be arsed to park properly, and just abandon their cars over two car spaces. usually happens when you're looking at the last empty, (and now unavailable) space in the whole car park.....

    Driving behind someone in the morning doing 15 miles an hour because they think the roads are slippy when they are not!!!
    I think that's when I am at my angriest...

    That, and then they don't indicate at a roundabout/junction.

    Boils My P*ss

    People using "press" to mean cupboard or in place of the verb "iron".

    Oh, I fell into that category the other morning. Felt such a dick and will never do it again!

    I went into uni at 6am because I couldn't sleep and wanted to get some revision done before an exam at 9:30.
    The plan was an hour or so to study then home for breakfast, coffee etc. and back for the exam.
    It was dark and cold so I left the car badly parked on the space nearest the uni.

    Anyway... Ended up staying longer than planned and went straight into the exam. Came back at 12 to a full carpark and my car looking so out of place.

    I wonder how people do it all the time and not notice how dickish they are.

    2 ply toilet roll, that isn't rolled right , so the ply doesn't match up.

    Signs written in shops, with incorrect spelling.

    Seeing cyclists on the road/cycle path , using the wrong gear

    Misspelled thread titles and, particularly, usernames.

    Dogs with one or both of their ears flipped back.

    People with their mouths permanently slightly open.

    Sales assistants not looking at you when serving you.

    The little gap between tracks which were mixed together when listening to an album in MP3 form. It ruins the second side of Abbey Road, for example.

    People openly stating that they know nothing by The Beatles without the appropriate embarrassment.

    Someone trying to talk to me while I'm trying to read.

    Writing a really long, great post/fantastic thanks-whoring reply, only to find the thread's been locked when you try to post it.

    "Would/should/could/might/may of," and, worse, "If I had of done..." (there shouldn't even be a "have" between "had" and the main verb in a third conditional sentence, let alone an "of").

    The way an edited post looks, and the crushing disappointment felt when I rush to ninja edit a post, but am too late (EDIT: just closed the bracket in the previous sentence, hope I'm still within the time limit).

    This complete b*stard: :rolleyes:. The last refuge of a scoundrel with nothing to back up their point.

    Despite all that, I'm a very easygoing chap.

    When the person in front of me in the checkout queue doesn't put down the "next customer please" thing.

    It's proper supermarket etiquette to put it down after you've loaded all your stuff on to the conveyor!!

    People who play the spoons

    How motorcyclists are treated like criminals at petrol stations.

    ?

    Try walking inside to pay for petrol with a helmet on.

    People who talk on their phones while buying something and totally ignoring the person behind the till, or the person behind the till having a conversation with a colleague and completely ignoring. Boils my blood :mad:

    being in a public toilet and seeing people not wash their hands after using the facilities, see it every day, it disgusts me.

    Went out on a works night out one time and seen a workmate failing to wash his hands after a pi$$, said it was his pi$$ and it wouldn't effect him! :(

    A radio presenter saying "Caller on line 2" or otherwise mentioning the number of the line. Do any one of us give a damn whether the caller is on line 2 or line 500!

    Cheap filler talk so the presenter doesnt have to use his brain. Its not just Joe Duffy who does it either I heard that gimp on 4fm saying it the other day

    What difference does it make? Depends on your own strength.
