    People who park in disabled posts.

    Also, people who think P&C spaces should be accorded the same status as disabled spaces.

    People who have no interest in religion who go on and on....and on...and on about it and look down on those who have faith.

    As bad as the folk you're condemning in my book.

    If you or any other religionists wish to believe in your fairy tales then be my guest.
    However, please be aware that not everybody agrees with this outlook on life.
    So don't be surprised if some people don't want to be told how to live their lives by men in dresses who have no experience of real world living.

    When religionists try to impose their "view of how the world should be run" on ALL of us don't be surprised if a non-believer pipes up and says you're talking sh1t.

    This is a bit of a rant but I think it's appropriate to this discussion.

    I work in a small shop in Dublin city centre, we get a lot of customers (particularly tourists as of late) as we're located near a very busy shopping district (not naming any names). Usually we never have any hassle, which is strange considering where we are in town. But on Friday evening I had a customer come in and pick out a couple of apples a banana and a packet of hunky dory buffalo.. no biggy, right? He comes up to the till and puts the items down and says "any deals on these?" I said "nope, sorry buddy" and he goes "I've only got the card with me, any chance I can pay with that?" and I say "yep, no bother". He picks out a few other items and I ask "Do you want cash back?" to which he replies "Yeah, I'm gonna need about tree fiddy". It was about that time when I noticed he was actually a 500ft tall creature from the Jurassic era. I said "God damn it Loch Ness monster!! You ain't getting no tree fiddy".

    Couldn't believe it. Goes to show, any scheister can walk in the door.

    People who engage in office bitching.

    People of low intellect who get annoyed with you over something when in fact the problem merely exists because of their stupidity.

    Sick people coughing and sneezing and infecting others.

    People who start sentences with qualifiers such as, "I'm not homophobic" /"I'm not racist" /"I'm an OAP"

    People who have no regard for animals

    People who are reasonable human beings on the footpath and then turn into monsters behind the wheel

    People who interrupt

    People who dont listen to the answer when they have asked a question

    People who are conspiracy theorists

    People who spend their lives on diets and wreck other people's heads banging on about points/syns etc and still get bigger all the time

    People who live vicarioulsy through social networking

    People who make a career out of going to college

    People who got themselves into huge debt during the celtic tiger credit bonanza and are now whingeing and looking for restructuring deals

    People that are smelly

    It is the outer lane.

    driving lane is the inside lane, passing / overtaking lane is the outside lane.

    now, people who call it the slow / fast lane .. now that's what grinds my gears.

    We have neighbours like this. I used to drop into them to see if they wanted anything as they are old and cant drive. Stopped it because every time I do they are firing leaflets at me about retreat weekends where we will all sit around singing about Jesus. The implication, as always being, "you are imperfect, you need to do xy and z if you want to be good." - the fuuck??? Felt like saying, "listen love, while you're down on your creaky knees worshipping, I'm out helping where I can. Doing voluntary workwhen I can, collecting, looking after my pack of rescue misfits so dont fuucking preach to me about spreading Gods word - I'm already doing Gods work!". She's not much good to the suffering and the poor down on her knees is she? She cornered me yesterday when I was out with another neighours dog. This dog is tied up 24/7 and I go up any day I can to take her out, give her some food, change her blankets and just generally show her there is life on this planet. I dont do it for the praise, I love the dog but its annoying then to be bombarded with questions about what I am doing for Jesus today. I mean, what does she do? (aside from sitting around campfires singing hymns and hugging the pew?)

    Dublin Bus passengers ahead of you in the Queue to get off, and tell the driver, "no it's grand, it's not this one, ye can drive on"
    eventhough I've rung the bell.
    The 75 bus driver did stop at my stop :)

    People standing on buses who insist on congregating around the door instead of moving down the bus. They make it impossible for the driver to guage how many more people he can let on or to see if people need to get off.

    People who drive SUVs around the city and suburbs and rarely venture into the countryside but feel quite happy obstructing other drivers' views in car parks and at traffic lights or blocking people from being able to get down the inside lane to turn left.

    Do self service checkouts count as people? They're a constant hurry, and I consider myself quite a fast moving person. They also trickle out change in the worst possible way, taking up even more time. I usually use a card but when I don't it's annoying. Oh and some leave you hanging for ages when you put a note in them..the only ones that actually seem to work without fail are Tesco
