    People who are supporters of or who sympathise with the IRA SF & the likes.

    They make my skin crawl.

    People who say "euros" instead of "euro".

    (People in the media - I'm looking at you!)

    I don't have any "inexplicables", as far as I know. If I have a problem with someone, it's usually very explicable. :pac:

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Is that not most people, though? Or is it more a visitor/tourist thing?

    I think lots of folk do it - but people in the media, especially those who report in the area of finance, are awful. It's very simple... it is always "euro" :confused:

    (apparently the real reason for these is in case the car is involved in an accident and emergency services then know to look for a baby/small child)

    This really annoys me too. The British all say euros, everyone of them. It’s “euro”
    The 's' plural rule does not apply as it’s not an English word
    “euro”

    Just want to add to my own comment: It also annoys me when people say “Gardas”
    It’s an Irish word, the plural for Garda is Gardaí (i.e. the í is the irish version of s)
    "Gardaí"

    Anti-vaxxers. People say allergies are all psychological (these people exist), people who honestly believe in angels/psychics.

    The former are a dangerous breed of people who I cannot abide. The latter two are just idiots who are outing their own stupidity IMO.

    somebody who clearly takes their behavioral cue from the alpha male/queen in a group.
    when they over use your hospitality.
    when they put - down any idea that does'nt come from themselves.
