Things that inexplicably turn you against someone

Like what, exactly?

Like 5rtytry56's post above. Went over your head that one.

etymon

People who try to look posh and hold their dinner knife like a spoon when they're cutting stuff.

People who try to sound posh and say they would do something e.g. 'I would be a huge fan of hot yoga' 'We would eat in that amazing restaurant a lot' instead of just saying 'Yeah I like yoga'. Rosanna Davison is a great one for this in her regular lifestyle 'interviews' in the Indo.

Following on from that, people who think being or seeing a 'nutritionist' is actually a professional or useful endeavour.

Rosie Rant

People who are so f*cking paranoid and un-trusting, that they treat guests who stay at their house like criminals who will steal the second they get the chance.

Oh, you've gone to the bathroom? I better mute the television so that I can hear everything; you might be going through presses and drawers in there - and I better just wait outside the door when I hear you flush the toilet just so I can see if you have anything on you when you get out.

You have to go upstairs to get something? I better make some ridiculous excuse and go up with you, just to keep an eye on you.

You've said something complimentary about something I own? I should make a subtle statement about how I hate people who steal.

You're sleeping in the next room and you've just moved in the bed or gotten up to use the bathroom? Right. I'm getting up, I'll turn on my light and listen out for anything suspicious. I should call out and ask if you're ok as well, just to make it clear that I'm awake and listening.

I have a friend who does this and it puts me right off. It's not her fault at all. She's a really sweet girl. It's just that her (over-protective to the point of absurdity) parents have drummed so much paranoid drivel into her head. I think she actually lives in fear and will never trust anyone!

Maybe she's just sick of you constantly stealing stuff from her house?

5rtytry56

People of any age who think anybody on their own having a quiet pint in the pub is'nt entitled to any personal airspace, simply because they're on their Tod.

Stay in your own place then, very strange post...

Dramatik

People who sit at the bar in busy pubs or clubs making it virtually impossible for anyone else to get a pint. When you finally get the barmans attention and get served, they give you a dirty look because you have to reach over their head to grab your pint.

Also, you don't really see them at this time of the year but in the summer you see a few people wearing them. Those rubber clogs, not sure what else to call them or if there's a particular name for them but I once saw a family and they were all wearing them, hadn't felt that much rage in a long time. I've no idea why I hate them, I just do.

The factory needs to be burned to the ground immediatly.

Fakery, as in people with fake hair, fake tan, fake eye lashes, fake nails, etc. All respect is lost.

So you have no respect for the majority of women?

Minority. You'll be hard pushed to find people wearing all such fakery together.

aunty kitty

You know the little holes in crocs, that's where your dignity leaks out.

Cee-Jay-Cee

Anyone wearing one of those stupid floppy hats during the day when it's not raining or not cold and even worse if they're wearing one indoors.

Another one is fellas with girls hairstyles, like big massive side swept fringes. Instant dislike.

Heckler

People who either belittle something you may have done or conversly have to engage in oneupmanship. Mostly done in front of other people.

mada82

People who wear sunglasses on the top of their head.

Hate Conor McGregor Clones .......... but love Conor McGregor ......... although I can see why a lot of people don't but when the "Showman Idiot" mask slips you can see that he's just an normal lad playing the game.

Anybody who has been convicted of a sexual offence ........... can't put my finger on it but it just turns me off a person.

5rtytry56

Someone who becomes irritable because You don't pick up every last nonverbal cue from communicating with them, be it face to face, or in company of others. Sometimes it turns out that they know how this goon thinks, but they didn't warn you in advance.

Riverireland

People who expect a reply to every text they send you, like the conversation doesn't need to end somewhere! Got an earful oner this the other day! She will be getting a smiley face in future, or maybe not 😈

Skullface McGubbin

People with dyed neon coloured hair. Neon hair is a good way to identify a high maintenance or narcissistic individual. The bright colours are like a warning signal to others of the individual's toxicity (much like the poison dart frog). And it's also usually seen on tumblr-esque radical feminists. Neon hair is like the female equivalent of the neckbeard's fedora. You could say that neon hair is the female fedora.

brummytom

I was with a girl yesterday who spoke with a weird American-Irish-RP accent, despite growing up in Manchester, who used the word 'random' at least 20 times in about 5 minutes, and who said 'That's so funny!' rather than actually laughing...

One of those things is enough to piss me off, but all three and I wanted to scream.

The poison dart frog....:D:D I love it...

maudgonner

People who mix up the words "floor" and "ground". Drives me insane!

If it's outside and there's grass growing on it, that's the ground. Inside, covered in carpet? That's the floor.
