Trivial things that annoy you Part 2

bobbygrant

When something's bothering you and you wake up really early and suddenly that thing comes into your head, then you cant get back to sleep for bloody thinking about it.

I was watching the T.V. show Monk last night and at the end of the opening credits he's about to go out his front door when he turns around and replaces an umbrella to match the other two. This is ridiculous as anyone with his level of O.C.D. would never have placed the umbrella like that in the first place - now that's trivial.

George Bernard Shaw.....

Half an hour waiting to be served because I didn't have the right haircut, NHS glasses or Morrisey t-shirt. One barman blanked me three times when I asked for a pint, then I asked another prick and he told me there was no need for shouting!!

If I was actually shouting at him, he would have know about it.

Is that one of those six quid a pint places? Fuuck them and go somewhere that appreciates your custom....

Coppinger Row are particularly bad!

Given that there is so much choice around, I just choose not to go back. I'm just not willing to put up with it and pay for the privelege! Many years ago I had a particularly bad experience in Brasserie 66 and I haven't darkened their door since!

It's one of those sh*t pubs that only sells Hoegarden and Bavaria and is infested with hipsters. I was there once about two years ago to meet a mate, and we both left after one pint and I vowed not to go back unless I had a flamethrower with me.

Dipsos who stink of alcohol in the middle of the day. Waste of fuucking space.

People who look at a photograph of you with hair all over the place, startled eyes and a goofy smile and say 'oh, that's a really good one of you'.
Or people who look at a photograph of you looking quite nice and say 'Is that you? God, I wouldn't have recognised you'.

"Baby on board" car stickers.

So what!? You have a baby, shall I go and congratulate you when I stop at the traffic lights?
Or should I be extremely careful while driving behind you because you have a baby there? Is that what you're saying? Or that you're a messy driver 'cos there's a baby screaming at you from the back seat?

I really don't get it.

Even worse are people who fly out past you at a dangerous speed while sporting one of these stickers in the back window.

Apparently they were introduced so that in the case of an accident, when it's possible that a baby seat could be thrown out of the car (apparently), the emergency services would know to go looking for a baby. Point totally defeated by the fact that most people leave them up permanently, regardless of whether the baby is actually in the car or not. Or, possibly that's all just an urban myth.

Baby on board signs still not as annoying as babe on board, though.

yeah, stupid fcuking things..because if they weren't there you'd force them off the road or ram them from behind.

Saw one the other day - "ex-husband in boot".

Oh, har har har, you're so witty!

Knickers riding up my arse all day and having to furtively pick them out! I looked at them this morning as I put them on and it crossed my mind that they looked the type that might do this but I wore them anyway. Must trust my instincts!!

Workman in my house today-is whistling to every single song on the radio.
I want to scream at him,instead,am smiling.

Note to self.
Turn off radio next time he comes over.

Aye. It's not as bad as "Yummy Drummie", though. :mad:

Getting stuck behind a slow Learner driver when you are a hurry

People who are 1st in a queue but who are standing way back behind the person being served eg at a bank machine

People who wear so much aftershave or perfume that you can smell their trail 10 yards behind them

eisenberg1

People who have no patience with L drivers........remember when you had to learn?

People who stand too fuuckin close to you when you are on a queue.

People who don't wash, and you can smell them from ten yards away

People have zero excuse for smelling bad in this day and age, whatever bout someone who works on a farm just finished or a mechanic in oily overalls or something work related, but just general grottiness. I sweat like anyone else and work in an office where the temperature seems to be permanently set to gates of hell so there's days where you'd be a bit ripe, straight into the shower at home. I shower twice a day when I can feel mank otherwise. Couldnt imagine going days between that's just vile.

Ironing

whiskeyman

People who drive up to a T'junction and stop too short to hit the sensor on the road for the traffic lights to turn green.
MOVE FORWARD PEOPLE!!!

That my friend thinks she is now better than me because she has a fella and I'm still single

The hello.ie advert that took a welcome break over the Christmas period. Fecking thing is back on almost every break again

The Pinergy and prepay power ads, so misleading, and their product is way expensive and unnecessary. How hard is it to read the meter and make a payment in advance FFS?

Adverts that shout at me, or treat me like a congenital idiot.

Bridge93

Headlines on news stories that are completely misleading or over the top. Waste your time. One that's comes to mind was that one where the Hull City Owner was headlined as saying the Hill fans could go die. You click in and it just wasn't what he said or meant at all. Totally out of context and misquoted.
Very frustrating.
