Anyhoo: in a shop after buying something, it annoys me when the cashier first puts the receipt on my hand, then the notes, and then the small change on top. So you have the heaviest and most slippery items on top of a rough surface ... so they fall off as soon as you move your hand. :mad:

The correct method is: put the small change in the palm of the hand first, then the customer can take the notes and receipt with their fingers.

Airport currency exchange, an absolute joke. I flew into Edinburgh airport from Dublin and changed 295 euros to £217 pounds , thats a bleeding £30 mark up on what I should get. I just looked on line converting the same amount and the end result was £247. I will just have to plan from now on and change my currency at the bank before travelling to another country, leaving enough euro to travel and eat in between. :mad:

Use your debit card instead wherever possible, you get the very best rate that way.

one4all gift cards! fcking useless

Gift cards in general. Its like saying heres 20 euro now go spend it in this shop you never go to and end up having to spend extra money so you can use the thing up. The only place I buy stuff is amazon and steam. Only one of which is available in a shop and I doubt anyone is going to walk into gamestop for a gift card and buy anything except a gamestop gift card. On the plus side I can use it to buy the steam gift cards myself.

I hate having to pay extortionate prices for popcorn in the cinema. I only recently bought this in the ODEON cinema for 4.90 euro. Any right thinking society would consider this crime.

Bah humbugers.

And people who refer X-mas or 'the holidays', especially when done for PC reasons.

noel farrell · 25-12-2013 09:53AM

People who shop in expensive shops . and then moan about the price the have been charged

camel jockey · 25-12-2013 10:01AM

People who shop in Aldi or Lidl and then complain if they get something that tastes like ****.

chubba1984 · 25-12-2013 10:02AM

People who think using X-mas is a way to be PC. X is the Greek symbol for Chi which is the first letter in the Greek version of Cristos i.e. Christ.... It's been around for centuries....

People too scabby or lazy to write / type or say Christmas.

people too scabby or lazy to spell out or say The Day Of The Birth Of Our Lord And Saviour The Lord Jesus Christ

I'd like to see you get that on the Christmas Cake or Yule log icing.

People who ask you what you received from Santa.

People who post up pictures/status' of their new iPhone 5s, Xbox 1, iPad, MAC makeup, *insert overpriced object here*

I always find it ironic when someone after they've put up the status with all their new gifts, saying 'thinking of the homeless, or anyone who doesn't have anything special this year'. *along those lines*

Meh.

Radio controlled helicopter -

Five minutes play, then has to charge again for another 50 minutes

qo2cj1dsne8y4k · 25-12-2013 11:47AM

Being sick on Xmas and being way too sick to even complain out loud

PizzamanIRL · 25-12-2013 11:47AM

People wasting hundreds on a 6 month old baby for Christmas.

Then i'm just laughing when the baby is happy playing away with an empty water bottle and ignoring the gifts that she is way too young for.

Did that recently, and it was liked being held up at gun point, without an actual gun being used. Grrrrrrrrr.

Try the post office, I got some sterling a while back while the rates weren't great and it actually wasn't too bad, considering what it would have been anywhere else.

The relative complaining that having to get their child an iPad has cleaned out their bank account. You did not HAVE to get your child an iPad you ridiculous woman.

A lot of people have been posting pictures of their Christmas dinners on Facebook/Instagram and there's ketchup, mayo and brown sauce on their table :eek: What a way to ruin your Christmas dinner!

People who complain about the most trivial of things really annoy me.

This is sacrilegious. Even on a Sunday roast they put on Chef sauce with their gravy.

Wrong, wrong, wrong.

I never cease to be amazed by the depths of ignorance and depravity to which man can sink.

People who press both the up and down buttons on the lift in the hope the first one that arrives will head in the right direction (but actually forcing the lift heading in the "wrong" direction to stop unnecessarily at that floor)

RedFormanFITA · 25-12-2013 11:24PM

People who start talking about how long it is to Christmas 2014.

Sales that start on Christmas Eve. Saw a couple of guys putting up the 50% off posters in my local Heatons on Christmas Eve, two hours before the store closed.

Shops stocking items for Saint Valentines Day on December 26th.

Shops stocking items for Saint Patrick's Day on January 26th.

Shops stocking items for Easter on January 27th.

The same Christmas films being on every bloody channel on the tv on Christmas Day. Is this why we pay our tv license or is it to keep Joe Duffy at RTE? Heaven forbid he should go to another tv/radio station.

loubian · 26-12-2013 12:40AM

People who only talk about themselves, and you try carry a conversation in the vain hope they'll ask you how you are but then the conversation dwindles out as there's only so much information you can take.

It annoys me that they don't notice this.

It annoys me that I didn't see it sooner.

It annoys me that I still try. But I'm a dogooder.
