Trivial things that annoy you Part 2

Mums Net. Jaysus H, they've been on Sky News bitching and whining about how they don't like the debates in the House of Parliament in the UK, apparently they find it too rowdy. They want it changed to a format that's more friendly, fcking idiots. I do wish these morons would fcuk off and stick to things they know about.

Supermarket related:

People, usually middle aged women going mad to get those free samples of food they sometimes give out in supermarkets - blocking aisles, pushing people out of the way and horsing into numerous samples like they haven't eaten in weeks.

Marks & Spencers at lunchtime. It's always a last resort. A total frenzy going on in the sandwich and salad aisle and almost impossible to grab something without having to elbow someone out of the way. And once you do get a prime choosing position you have to work hard to hold onto it as people around you lose all reason and basic manners.

Unecessary packaging. Tesco are terrible for this. Six little croissants in an absolutely massive container.

People fcuking about with balls on beaches...should be banned. With the exception of small kids pushing a ball around, or building sand castles, all other activities, during summer months are a no.

You are sitting there with your book/dozing/listening music, and along comes some bored twat who decides to start hurling with his mates, I mean you can do that anywhere there is grass, why the crowded beach,, where sooner or later, some will get whacked with the ball. Same applies to soccer, Frisbee etc.

The exception to the above is the Brazilian ladies volleyball team, should they decide to practice on my local beach.

I was going to ask what's wrong with batting a beachball around a bit, but hurling???

I finally ****ing snapped. After weeks of being invited to some godawful nightclub event by the same ****head I went to secondary school with, I have just upped and removed him outright from my Facebook friends list.

I didn't want to go on week one, or week two, or week three, SO STOP ****ING INVITING ME. Don't click that invite all friends button, be a decent human being and **** right off. Dickhead.

Someone mentioning the acoustic guitar guy at a party earlier, I've another musical related one:

When you are in a pub, more so a your local, and the local oul lad or whomever starts singing at the end of the night, and everyone is told to hush, and if you dare speak at a normal level or make noise, you get the evil looks from everyone or are deemed to be causing disrespect.

Feck that I didn’t head to my local for a pint to hear some oul fella singing diddly eye songs and sit there in silence, if I wanted that I would head into Temple Bar and pay 7 quid a pint with the rest of the tourists!!

One hit wonder me b*llix, his album Mack Daddy is a stone cold classic.
And Put 'Em On The Glass would have been a bigger single for him if the video wasn't so racey......the view count on the video should increase now after saying this.....the song is about women putting thier boobies on glass, the video depicts this.

I stand corrected, I shall be increasing the view count for that video momentarily

Kids messing about with a beachball is ok, but I talking about adults, with soccer/hurling balls, annoying the fcuk out of people, why go to a busy beach to do that?

The overuse (and mostly incorrect use) of the word hack. No, nobody hacked your email, they just guessed your password, which probably wasn't that difficult

Correct. And even if it was somewhat difficult, the correct term is "crack". Hacking is something rather different.

The way 'hacking' is portrayed in movies with multiple command lines running, graphical interfaces, speed typing without once using the backspace key, extreme amount of logging.....in reality, from a machine command window open, run script. When done remotely, script injected. Sit back.

Don't forget the method used by most of these "Computer Genius" types to get past password security - "OVERRIDE!" :pac:

That is awesome. Cant wait until one of the developer nerds comes by my desk, I tell them to wait a sec, rap on the keyboard and mutter that I'll compile that later.

I have lots of respect for cyclists but when they refuse to use the cycle path on a narrow road they piss me off. I just spent twenty minutes behind this idiot who cycled at his leisure and no one could get past him.

What is it with the internet fainting at the sight of every new half-naked photoshoot David Beckham does? He has the body of an 8 year old. He has absolutely no chest. Does any of you actually get turned on by his body?

Believe me I really wanted to but I had the kids in the car and I didn't want to start anything, some of the other cars were beeping and it didn't seem to bother him.

I remember Sandra Bullock ordering pizza delivery online back in 1995. That was the most mind-blowing thing I had ever seen. (I was 9.)

Anyway, for the rest of the film I think she was using that website :pac:

Be careful with the horn:)...I was running late for work this morn and as I was approaching a petrol station a car was coming out,the driver looked saw me and then drove out in front of me..I braked and blew the horn at the p^ick and then the fun started..He stops the car and start mouthing in the mirror and hand out the window with the usual signs:rolleyes: carrys on at less than 5mph until we got to a roundabout and we were beside each other in the lanes..I think he expected a man but anyway I gave as good as I got but then kinda s*it myself driving down to work in case he followed me...I know road rage will kill me but some drivers would drive you to it tbh

Gig groans:

Why the fcuk, after carefully selecting a good vantage point with my obscenely-priced plastic cup of generic pish water, does the only lurching giraffe with a foghorn voice decide to stand right in front of me?

Then you have the half wits producing their phones like a plague of Japanese tourists attempting to record the gig for 'posterity'. Away tae fcuk!

If you want to get involved in that inconsiderate, pointless carry-on go and watch fcuking Coldplay or Radiohead with the rest of society's dullards.

People watching a concert through thier phone screen...the f*cking action is right in front of you. How many times are you going to go back and watch your sh*tty shakey footage of other peoples phones held up in the air with most likely a sh*tty sound.

Those few that bring thier tablets to record on....they are the worst.

I never understand this either. Just watch the concert and enjoy it already.

Vain men. The sun seems to bring them out in force. The number of guys swanning around topless and shaved is annoying me. It's actually the guys that work out that bother me the most. I don't want to see your frigging chests. The sheer vanity of a man that shaves all the hair from his torso and legs, often the arms too annoys me.

What sane woman would want to live with a guy who spends more time in the bathroom preening themselves than she does

Save it for the beach or the privacy of your own gardens lads.

RFOLEY1990 · 02-07-2014 05:31PM

when phones in movies/tv aren't lighting up/ making the right sound that they're supposed to be doing in the film.

like when they make iPhones have the ridiculous beep to simulate answering a call that it doesn't have.

or when a character is "on the phone" and you can clearly see the menu screen

You've got season tickets to the GUN SHOW

"Ecosystems" in consumer devices terms, whether it be Microsoft, Apple or Google -

I had to spend a small fortune recently to get us all working off the same platform (Microsoft) on pretty much the same hardware. You'd imagine it would all work seamlessly together - "Out of the box".

It does it's hole. Apple still have the market cornered in terms of ease of use and configuration, but you pay a premium for that too!

Also -

Abrakebabra - Poisonous amount of seasoning on their chips!

To be honest, it's more of a Microsoft problem than anything else. Their recent software and hardware releases have been dire.

Windows 8 is a nightmare to use, Windows Phone is horrible and pointless, the Surface is overpriced, horrible and pointless and the XBONE is terrible.

They literally aren't currently making any product that is worth a ****. I don't really care as long as the keep support going for Win 7 for another few years though.
