I hate your one Trish on LOVE/HATE because of her constant duck face.....That and her inability to act her way out of a paper bag.

The dentist and his ex wife are pretty bad actors also.

I don't mind ordering at the counter but in Costa they don't even bring your order to your table, you have to get it at the counter, so it's more of a fast food system than a café one.

When the water filter jug is empty and I have to re-fill it.
Why is that such an annoying thing? No idea, but I generally leave a little water in it, and pop it back in the fridge in hope that someone else will fill it.
What's wrong with me??? :[

Films set in a non English-speaking country but the film is made in English. It's even worse when there is some of the actual language in the background at times, and the worst of all is when they speak English with a foreign accent.

Try watching Enemy At The Gates with this in mind. English accents mixed with blatantly fake Russian accents, American accents that are meant to be German. Torture.

Going into an unfamiliar non branded cafe and hovering around for a minute not knowing whether to order at the counter or the table or if you should wait for a waitress to get you a table , then you ask and the waitress says ' just take a seat and someone will take your order ' ,makes you feel like either a clueless moron with no social skills or a bold boy or both while everyone else in the cafe is throwing they're eyes to heaven and you know they're thinking "what a sap"

That's an awful stereotype. Tsk, tsk.

Low carrying umbrellas. People with them seem to gravitate towards me to take my eyes out.

Umbrellas in general. Cheap ones that break if you so much as breath on them or those expensive ones, i bet they break just as easily. People who walk along a crowded street with an umbrella up and couldn't give a rat's ass as to who they poke with the sides of it.

Young female feckers who walk three abreast on the pavement, will they move in to let you past, will they fook. Had a few shoulder contacts recently, luckily I played football and rugby in my younger days so no biggie, hope if fookin hurt, you young fecker.

Apartment managers:mad:, landlords, landladies, estate agents the whole feckin lot of you. In fact any fooker who owns piss pot poor property where I live I hope you're reading this.

My bank. I bring in coins every so often and even though I count them twice, occasionally I've been a penny out. The amount they charge me over they years and yet they can't round it to a pound :rolleyes:

eisenberg1 · 30-10-2013 04:25PM

Nudists, don't get me wrong, I am all for whatever in the privacy of your own home etc, but going on holidays in the nip? You see them on telly, not content to just sit on the beach, they are up playing volleyball, cycling (arsey saddle yuk) BBQ, bending over FFS

It's perfectly natural. It's not meant to be titilating. I wouldn't be up for the bike riding but we've often stripped off in far flung places.

Mollycoddlers.

We have to be protected from every fookin thing these days, like wrapped up in cotton wool or bubble wrap the minute we are born.

While growing up in the 1970's how did we manage without, railings, barriers, guard rails, traffic lights, pedestrian crossings, signs telling us every which way to go, walk don't walk.

Also every fookin thing we eat or drink now has been anal ysed to death. one day something is good for you and the next day some Dr Bunsen Honeydew is telling you on the radio or tv, it is slowly killing you.

And have you seen the yokes in the pavements now with the bumps on them to let people with partial sight or who are blind know they are near the edge of the pavement. How did partially or blind people manage 30 or 40 years ago? And they cut the fookin feet of you too when you walk on them.

You have wear a seatbelt now even when taking a piss in a public jacks now. These seat belt signs are everywhere, I think I'll get some for my house so when people call round to visit I can strap them into the sofa or arm chairs, wouldn't want them hurting themselves.... FFS

Dead f**king right. We're afraid of everything these days.

Jesus my missus thinks the little fella is made of glass and if he cries it's the worst thing in the world. I know her's is a natural reaction but you can't protect kids from everything and sometimes it's good for them to learn a lesson for themselves and understand why they shouldn't do something - not just be told not to do it.

Oh I know, I know. Step free access to trains, that's another one. Sure wasn't it grand when wheelchair users stayed at home instead of having to travel to work and taking up space, don't get me started, Joe
