People who take a frozen food item out of the shop freezer, then change their mind later while shopping and just dump it on the neasest available shelf, thereby ruining it.

Saw somebody had done this with a frozen goose yesterday.

I hear people say this a lot and don't really understand it.

All it tells me is that they like coffee. It's such a commonplace thing that no one would carry round coffee to look cool.

Even if they have free instant coffee at work, a lot of people prefer the richer taste of a coffee-shop Americano, at least now and then.

Anti-vaxxers.
A friend turned out to be one, now I wouldn't trust them with a pencil.

People that wear a bunch of keys on a metal dog lead attached to the belt loop on their trousers.

In defence of vegans, as with anything, the vast majority of them are vegan in silence and don't shove it in people's faces all the time. The ones you're all describing are merely the pretentious ones that give the majority a bad name. As is the case with anything else. I wish people would stop tarring them all with the same brush.

People sitting on the ground in the standing area of the 3 arena.

How dare I step over them on route to the bar.

Absolutely, in fact there are hardcore carnivores who are if anything more annoying than preachy Vegans.

Guessing that this one has being mentioned already (maybe even a few times) but in case not pleople start emails with just your name, i.e. "John," as opposed to "Hi John," or "Hello John,"

I see it as an attempt at being condascending.

Ok, I agree and I hope thats not a dig at me as I don't believe I ever attacked anyones spelling or grammer here unless maybe where the text speak was so ridiculous that it was almost impossible to read (don't believe I have done that here for that matter)

Reason I maked that point is I'm not too sure why you quoted my post when making your point as my post hardly has any relevance...

Arse holes who act as if they know more than a highly paid soccer manager, using the current buzz word.

Especially Liverpool supporters in the pub.

"He should never have let Gerrard go, put him in the hole behind the front men and play two men as holding midfielders"

Complete ****.

Very good!

I don't like spelling/ grammer nazi's either.

The one thing I will say to anyone taking it upon themselves to be a spelling/ grammer nazi is to ensure that your own spelling and grammer is absolutely flawless as quite often I see that its not.

I don't think a paper jug of Topaz coffee counts as 'richer tasting'.

I try to make it my business to pull grammar Nazis up on their own mistakes.

This drives me into a blind rage, is it so hard to type an extra 2 letters - "Hi". Ignorant c**ts.

The thing about Arsenal is that they always try and walk it in.

Similarly, people who are paid to go on television and talk about all the sport after the sport has happened, and genuinely seem to think that it matters.

What was Wenger thinking sending Walcott on that early?

I would never expect a man to offer me his seat - unless I'm heavily pregnant, unwell, elderly, disabled, why should he?

Because he's a sexist patronizing prick, or at best living in the dark ages. I have seen perfectly able bodied women looking quite pissed off at being offered seats.

I give up seats to anyone who looks like they need it, regardless of sex. Last time was a woman in her 70s who was very appreciative -I have seen some who barely acknowledge it.

I don't follow football but thought this was a great story

Liverpool fan applies for managerial position using FIFA credentials, gets actual response

The fifa credentials were playing a computer game, fifa 15
