    People who double-dip with finger food, revolts me.
    People who have to be constantly tapping something, either with their foot or hand.
    People who leave their sound on their computer at work, well done you got an email.
    Door to door sales people.

    Dogs with one or both of their ears flipped back. If I pass someone walking their dog I almost have to restrain myself from flipping the dog's ear back into the right position.

    People who say the phrase "Cheer up, it might never happen!" to someone who's worried or upset, especially if it's someone they don't really know.
    If someone looks upset then it probably already has happened!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    People who wear full tracksuits. Either wear the top or the bottom but not both together!

    *in before the obligatory "everyone who wears a tracksuit is a knacker"

    Yer one is stuck in a traffic jam (jamb?) and shouts 'HEY - FIX YOUR DOG'S EAR FGS'

    I remember that episode! I was so relieved that I wasn't the only person who gets bugged by it.

    People who eat either noisily or with their mouth open. Can't stand it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,050 ✭✭✭token101


    People mixing up there, they're and their. Primary school stuff.

    People saying lol, having the lolz. I don't mind internet acronyms, but they're for the internet.

    Slurping drinks. Tea or coffee usually.

    Someone blowing smoke towards me and not giving a ****.

    People who leave doors open.

    People putting empty packets back in the cupboard.

    Leaving lids loosely placed and stuff going off/ going flat.

    Even in the nicest, soundest person, a D4 accent. Nasal and grating. Like nails on a blackboard.

    Was queuing in a chipper and a drunk guy standing far too close behind me burped and it wafted across the back of my neck and I got a strong smell of beer and cigarettes.

    I was ****ing furious but kept my mouth shut because there was a strong chance it would escalate.

    Drunk people aren't usually the best types to reason with.

    Beggars in Nike air. If you can afford Nike Air you can afford to f*ck off

    People expecting money because they wrote their poor life story with chalk on the pavement. Stop buying chalk and buy food!!

    Lol, LOls, Rofla and all those dumb internet abreviations.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,650 ✭✭✭sensibleken


    People who finish a sentence with 'simples', 'fact!' or '/thread' are literally the worst example of humanity

    Neutrinos.

    You little bastards, you ruined physics.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 109 ✭✭barrmur


    People who do not let people off the bus/Luas before trying to stampede on board.

    A group of people who walk up stairs taking up the whole staircase and get annoyed when you have the cheek to want to walk though them. Add to that the little scrots who think it’s a great idea to sit on the fecking stairs.

    Driver that cannot use indicators and or roundabouts.

    Gotta stop now before I feel the need to hit someone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,351 ✭✭✭Ray Palmer


    people who wait till all their items are rang in at the till and THEN take out their purse or wallet. It is like they are surprised by the fact the outcome is they have to pay.
