    Offices with no windows.

    Radio stations that play groovy music in the background while reading the news.Why bother with the serious business of the news at all ? They should just stick to talking about celebrity gossip instead of trying to make the latest financial crises,gangland murder or poison in our food chain sound glamorous with a stupid backing track.

    Adds for fungal nail infections on the telly when I'm having my dinner or trying to! Disgusting

    Thought it was bad years ago when there would be ads for ''Stamp Out Scour'' And Liver Fluke and worms etc.

    This is worse :confused:

    People who dress to be noticed, and are then "put out" when you notice them. I could say "what's that about?", but I know only too well it's that they're looking for attention.

    Of course I'm going to notice something out of the ordinary! If you don't have the confidence to pull it off, then just don't do it!

    If you're still being hassled by ads on Youtube you've only yourself to blame, grab adblock Plus and they disappear.

    Seeing TV reporters broadcasting outside in the rain without an umbrella or hat, for some reason it annoys me. Your on the main street you idiot, why not go into a shop and buy an umbrella.

    Shopping really annoys me, especially grocery shopping. We were in a supermarket yesterday looking at the wine. This woman bumped me once with her trolley then bumped me a couple more times not looking where the hells she was going and I suspect trying to get that section to herself. I settled for glaring as at that point I was furious and wanted to shout abuse at her. Thankfully I don't do shouting matches. Must be getting mellower with age. I remember verbally abusing someone years ago for something and Mr P told me I was going to get him punched one of the days. I stopped after that:o

    Those ads about happy mums. Cheerios and kinder bars are the worst. Why not say happy parent? don't know why it annoys me so much.

    The Cork accent.

    I'm after been talking to a girl there for the last half hour and I had to take a break. It was like taking razor blades to my ears it was that sharp. I honestly never realised it was that sharp, and I have relations from Cork and all but this was like nails on a chalkboard! :(

    Having been reading the 5 euro note thread, and that people are testing how easily the notes tear:

    People who write on notes really annoy me.

    It's far more common to see it on €50 notes, and every time I see a note with writing on it, I always imagine some ass who thinks hes loaded having a great oul' time counting out his money and summing the figures by writing on every couple of notes. Other people have to use those. It definitely bothers me more than it should, but it's just one of those things that people do that I just can't imagine the mindset behind it, and it frustrates me.

    The d4 accent, specifically the people who purposfully change their own accent to mimick it. To add to this the upward inflection some people put on every sentence that makes it sound like they are asking a question with every utterance. :mad:

    Broken biscuits.

    Nothing worse than opening a packet of Rich tea's to find the first half dozen smashed into tiny pieces - how am I going to dunk them!!

    Invention waiting to happen there.
