People who mime using cutlery when explaining that they want a knife and fork in an Asian restaurant.

Seriously, even if the waitstaff don't speak a lot of English, I'm pretty sure "silverware" is right up there at the top of their vocabulary list if they work in a restaurant!

When someone says something to you and you said "What?" because you can't hear them and they just say "Nevermind."

When you're in a café/restaurant and someone sits at the next table and face you. Then they take out their phone to read a text and point the phone it at you.

Here are some irritating points to air travel.
That big rush to board a plane, all the muppets cramming on to be first to get their seat, Then looking at the last people to get on in disgust as if we were delaying them. :rolleyes:
Then as soon as the un-buckled seatbelt light turns off the madness starts with the overhead compartments that they just put their stuff in has to be rifled through one more time just to make sure there crap is still there where they left it.
Oh and infamous toilet trips.You are on an hour flight do you really need to be up and down the isle five or six times busting past seats on your way.
Not to mention the bint that sits behind you hacking and sniffing gunge in there throat blugh..
Baggage reclaim always boils my blood, yeah sure leave the kids burst through everyone to reclaim the 20kg bags they'l do the job alright.
Or the clueless mid 40s women "oh I think its that one" "Oh its not" Running commentary on the whole baggage cart.
Im sure there's loads more but its good to get that out.

For me, it has to be people who take light entertainment shows too seriously....

If you consider the bullying of vulnerable people to be 'light entertainment', then you must have very low moral values indeed.

Sad.

Its hardly bullying if she signed up for it, if anything its the fault of people who told her she could sing.

It's hardly murder, if you allow someone to murder you. :rolleyes:

People in shops who don't know how to print out a receipt from the till.

Trying to buy Nurofen+ for my migraines.
For any pharmacists reading,you are just supposed to ask what it's for and maybe recommending something else(which don't work which is why I'm asking for Nurofen+)and not demanding a letter from doctor or refusing to sell them to me.
Being made to feel like I just asked for heroin isn't on.:mad:

Hardly, that woman clearly is one of our 'vulnerable' in society and I don't understand why anyone could find it funny to mock her. They vet every act before they get to that stage and yet they just keep putting her back on year after year because saddo's think it funny. :rolleyes:

Anyway....I hate when you are in bed, just about to nod off and then you need to go for a wee. Ye end up trying to ignore it but eventually you just have to give in and get bloody up and over the to toilet.

Such a waste of precious sleep time.

Get some rubber sheets and don't worry about it.

OK now that would really get me angry.

Same here, have loads more pics like that, taken locally, those weren't even the worst. I'd love to catch the f#ckers at it. Then again, they'd get off with a fine.

Ah here, get off you're high horse, will you? My moral values are just grand, thanks.

How do you, or anyone else know the woman was 'vulnerable'? There are many eccentric people who audition for the show, doesn't mean they're mentally unstable! She gave as good as she got.

In fairness,she was told on previous occasions that her voice wasn't good enough, but she chose to come back of her own free will, no one forced her into doing anything.

Also, don't believe everything you read - according to people who were in the audience that day, the edit didn't show her having a laugh on stage with Gary, or him going backstage to check that she was alright. Read the comments under the article below from a couple of audience members who were actually there:

http://www.digitalspy.ie/tv/s103/the-x-factor/news/a341687/x-factor-gary-barlow-mocked-ceri-rees-in-cut-scenes.html

I can't believe how seriously some people take this show... It's just light entertainment!

Aside from "people posting on discussion fora giving out about things that annoy them", what annoys you?

For me, it has to be something I had long forgotten but rediscovered tonight: the people whom you meet in classes who monopolise the conversation to the extent of not allowing the lecturer/teacher, the person whose expertise you are paying to hear, to teach you and everybody else.

Everybody tries to be polite to them, but you can see the eyes being raised as time after time the same person interrupts to redirect the class to whatever flight of fancy he or she has taken. It is shameful than any adult with a smidgen of sensitivity or respect could be oblivious to their selfishness among a group of people.

Anyway, what annoys you?

Pizza faced lank haired 'students' who never paid a cent tax, telling me how to live my life and whom I should support and what fly-blown country is currently under threat from the US, Israel, Tesco , the UK,Saudi Arabia.

fcukers tilting at windmills, while John Q taxpayer bankrolls their existence.

Boil my piss big time.

The pictures of thick succulent juicy hamburgers in fast food restaurant menu's above the counter, and when you order one, it looks nothing like that...

I was gonna start a fresh thread, but sure one already exists.
