    Sorry - Just another one of my failed attempts at humour.

    I'll get my coat.

    People who skip queues. I hate that & it happened me a few weeks ago in a way that brought it to another level altogether.

    I was in the queue at Tesco, waiting in line, when a woman skipped me not from behind, not from the side, but from the opposite end of the checkout - yep the end you are supposed to leave by.

    When I called her up on it, her response was, "you snooze, you lose".

    I composedly replied, "Well, I never."

    (F*cking, stupid, f*cking, f*cking b*tch - may Karma run over your Dogma).

    People who don't dim their headlights
    People who let their dogs crap on the footpath and don't scoop it up
    :mad:

    People that don't say please and thankyou.. I mean it's not bloody hard!

    Yeah, just once I'd like to hear someone say "Please stop, you are making a scene."

    not using any punctuation in posts that really annoys the hell out of me

    Irony, is that you? ;)

    Using the self service checkouts in Tesco and the person in front of you has a ton of and of change and is slotting it in one by one by one....

    I've done that a few times and I dont see a problem. I choose the self service till so as not to annoy the checkout worker. It was the only money I had at the time

    I was getting on a tram in Dublin yesterday and let a woman get on before me so she got the last seat at the doorway. I was stood there happily untill the next stop when on comes a man(in his late40/50's) wearing a packed backpack at the next stop, it hit against me a few times. he got off 2 stops later but anyone should realise that you take them things off when you get on public transport. karma did not work for me there

    This is what cable ties are for. Tie his backpack to the handrail so he can't get off.

    Although when he works out what has happened you may wish you did.

    But what rattles your cage??


    thiers two types of ignorance - Cultchie and Polite ignorance

    the difference between the two ?

    Telling a cultchie that eletrcity is made by Burning fuels* Not Enda Kennys nipples. They dont believe me and ignore the sience and Addopt the Oul Wifes tale.

    Polite ignorance - Forcing your way to the top of a queue at Maccers cause the knackers dunno what to order.


    Basically.


    Ignorance that annoys me Is Bullying through a junction in yer banger... im going through too, just because you think you've a nice car doesn't mean you hae the right to ignore the rules of the road, common curtasy and Moral standards. :mad:

    The till operator is faster at counting your money into the open till drawer.
    At the self service you have to individually slot all your coins into one little opening. Takes 5 times as long as giving it to the checkout operator, oh and by the way, you're not annoying them, as far as Im aware that's their job.:)

    Grammar Nazis well not all of them but just the few that pick out one spelling mistake in a post and try to correct the OP in a smug arrogant way.Just leave it be if it was a post full of text speak I could see the point in correcting the poster not for just one or a few minor mistakes.

    FYP. Good grammar is very easy to obtain. You should try harder.

    People who gossip and presume to know someone just because they heard it through the grapevine :rolleyes: and backstabbers:rolleyes:

    Youtube posters are the most idiotic people i've ever encountered on the internet. You get some people on youtube who act like keyboard warriors and say things like "F*ck you fagg*t, i'm going to kick you're f*cking ass". Or someone who disagrees with you saying "Shut the f*ck up you retard. You don't know what you're taking about"

    I also hate w*ankers who seem to like to hack into internet forums and cause the whole forum site to shut down for a day in a half:D

    Are you implying that i'm kissing the mods ass? because it was merely a joke directed at yesterday's attack on boards. I guess the smilie didn't make that clear enough.

    It gets to me when people use the word ''ignorant'' to mean someone who's annoying. It means ''lack of knowledge''. So when they use the word ''ignorant'' in the context it's usually used it (example, this post) it makes the person who used it the ignorant one!!
