Pet Hates....

Yes! Totally agree.

"Everyone is just too PC, I'm just saying what other people daren't because I'm so brave!"

It isn't political correctness, it's called common courtesy and good manners, and you're not making a daring statement, you are saying the same as every other ignorant, parochial little waste of oxygen and thus you are the opposite of brave or controversial.

Agreed.

Nice use of the word parochial by the way. Good word!

The English,
always in our country living off wellfare then complaining when hard working immigrants show up and take menial jobs.
bloody english

<--- look at location.

 

[Nigel-YZ1]

People that/who think that because you're driving a little car entitles them to drive 1 inch from your anal passage or pull out 10 feet in front of you because you're small and therefore slow (which it's not).

 

[Nigel-YZ1]

The overuse of the word 'allegedly'.

 

[ThinAir]

The overuse of the word 'allegedly'.

Allegedly, it's an overused word.

3 - The very second the seatbelt sign goes off and the brakes go on don't think reaching or clambering over me to get your hand luggage will get you home any earlier. I shall look forward to standing next to you at the baggage claim. Cretins.

There's a bit in one of Spike Milligan's war reminiscences where he describes being on a train which is due to arrive in a couple of minutes "...and all the idiot sergeants are standing up and getting their bags down from the racks and standing in the corridors. Idiots. Why don't they just go and stand next to a graveyard?"

Allegedly, it's an overused word.

allegedly.

People who use the word Literally.
Phrases such as "I'm Literally on fire!"
there's no need to have 'literally' in there, not only are you failing spectacularly to actually be on fire but you're speaking figuratively! AAAAAAAAAAGH!

I know it's a bit old school, but,

Littering

 

[hobbitonabike]

People in small cars that park them as far forward in car park spaces as possible so you think it is an empty space...yay...until you get to it and see its little back end...grrrrr

 

[tyred]

On the subject of car parking - people, usually BMW or Audi drivers who feel the need to parp using multiple spaces to protect their precious cars.

I have news for you - my Peugeot 205 is narrower than most modern cars and can often be fitted in about an inch away from your driver's door so you need to get in the passenger's side

 

[on the road]

People who put their feet on trains seats/ on the back of cinema seats. Twunts.

Trains around here have an automatic £50 on the spot fine for that, and they have CCTV cameras so they can't get away with it, I've seen a few get done.

 

[on the road]

People who take up two parking spaces with one car, it's usually BMW owners who are terrified of getting a scratch on their car.

 

[Hill Wimp]

Love it, this is a priceless thread

 

[SamC]

I know it's a bit old school, but,

Littering

I was saying to someone the other day that if you see someone unashamedly drop litter, you know they're the scum of the earth. I live next to a canal, and the number of people who chuck their empty bottles straight in, it makes my blood boil. What kind of miscreant do you have to be to think dropping litter is acceptable? I just know that they drop their litter, then go home and beat their wives, because that's the kind of person who thinks littering is acceptable.
