Men who wear slim fitting or skinny-ish jeans and then ram their I-phone into their pocket. Kinda ruins the look.

If they aren't worried about how ridiculous they look already in their ball squeezers, the VPL of their phone, phablet or kindle hardly bothers them :pac:

Speaking of portmanteau'd words, they're probably the same sort of chap that uses words like 'hangxiety'. From what I gather, it seems to be something to do with a hangover and anxiety, like that other recent facepalm inducing phrase 'the fear' :rolleyes:

I think I'll just go back to speaking Irish altogether, it makes about as much sense as English does these days :pac:

That is so annoying

. I swear if I shave my legs in the morning I get a 5 0 ' clock shadow. We used to have tails and 6 toes, so why the hell can't our unwanted body hair phase out ?

"Inspirational quotes", so damn annoying! I think the level of someone's pending mental breakdown can be measured by the amount of inspirational quotes they post

Jelly Bellies. The most addictive sweet ever. Just cant stop chomping them.

50's style sexism in the 21st century.

'Okay guys, lets listen to what the little lady has to add now' Big smile, patronising pat on the head.

Kanye Gobsh1te West, murdering Bohemian Rhapsody.

He should have his testicles stapled (rusty staples) to his knees.

What did those poor staples ever do to you?

The reason for you to wear heels to work, and accidentally step backward at the wrong time.

From Terry Pratchett's Going Postal - "What's sticking into your foot is a steel-tipped four-inch stiletto heel, the most dangerous footwear in the world. Now I know what you're thinking. Could she push it all the way through to the floor?"

Vending machine deciding that I don't actually want a regular can of coke. No,here have a diet one instead. Prick!

People who take phone calls in a fitting room when there's a queue waiting outside. Grrrr.

Ahh, but I'm broke and it'd be really useful to have some guy pat me on the ass, hand me a big wad of cash and tell me to go buy myself something pretty.

Just kidding

Over reacting (and slowness in de-reacting) to non-stories by the media. On Sky News now, "BREAKING NEWS - U.S. NAVY SHOOOTING", and the reporters going on and on about a previous shooting at the location, Ramadan, the Tunisia attack etc. It has already been established that it was a hoax. It's one step up from just making up news to fill air time.

Just say 'oh, it was a hoax', and move on to real news please!

I put on some of that stuff that gives you a gradual tan and now the tops of my legs are covered in hives.

My legs are having a hard time of it today

I'm annoyed at the stench of BO from people. It's nauseating and I'm starting to dread going into any enclosed building where there are other human beings. Yesterday there was a guy hovering around me at the chiller aisles in Tesco, he was fcuking rank with BO. It's so tempting to say something, but all I did was decide that thanks to the stink of him I'd lost my appetite for cheese so I left him to it.

I find myself TA'd at people calling one of the Berkeley balcony survivors "brave" as she is beginning her rehabilitation.

How is she brave? She is only taking the next step in the line of recovery that countless other unfortunate people have had to take, with far less media scrutiny and obtrusiveness too.

That and hero have lost their meanings somewhat in the clamour to have stories stand out and trend on social media.

I totally agree with you, but expect us both to be savaged for 'victim blaming' or some such nonsense.

Relations attempting to undo my studying and work in college. They were asking if I plan on doing a masters, I said yes and they asked how expensive it is. I said very expensive but I have a scholarship so its free. They reply "Oh, wouldn't it be great to have naturally smart kids". Not only is it insulting to their kids, but its really annoying how they fail to acknowledge the fact that I studied my ass off to get it

Anyone can do well in academia if they try. Parents need to stop making excuses for their lazy offspring by referring to anyone who gets good results as "naturally smart"

... OK rant over

When I'm editing my posts, I can't seem to select the part I want to edit when I tap the screen. The little cursor goes either above, below or a good few letters away from where I'm trying to put it. I often have to delete a few letters, put in my corrections, put back in the letters I deleted and then re-post. This is very annoying! I can't just leave the post alone if there's even the tiniest mistake, which is annoying as well!
