Do you have any? What are they?

I'm incredibly laid back, but have recently found certain things that have really started to boil my p155. There are some other things that have always grated on me, but I can kind of let slide...

Don't get me wrong, I don't get all "high and mighty" about any of these, but I just wondered of I was alone in any of these things, or they are quite common.

Here is a list:

People who eat noisily.
People who chew with their mouths open.
People who don't wash their hands after going to the bog.
Bad spelling.
Bad grammar.
Flys.
People who abuse ASLs.
People driving using mobile phones.
Loud, drunk people.

What are yours? GO.....

Edit: list by no means exhaustive!

Too many things!
I am really easily irritated by other people so top of my list would be other people!
People that don't use carseats/belts properly
Feral children in restaurants
Spitting
Customers putting their money down on the counter even though I'm holding my hand out to take it.
Children riding adult sized bikes that are too big for them
Misuse of the apostrophe on posters/signs etc - you know "new's paper's"
Old people who don't queue
 

Saluki

World class procrastinator
Yup, all of those.
People who use text speak in forums or who email me in text speak.
People who ask you an open question and let you get 2 words out and then talk over you about something totally different.

Feral children in eateries really really annoy me. I had to have 'a word' with an parent the the other week when her brat was belting round the pub tables and then came and put its sticky, snotty fingers in my meal as it grasped for a handful of chips. Its parents bought me a new meal

Oh yes. Really fat children. I see a lot of them in my line of work. 8 year olds who weigh more than I do. It can't all be glandular.

Me predicts very long thread.:whistle:

People who stand in a queue in a shop, then arrive at the counter, spend ages trying to work out what they want to buy and then spend another century trying to find their purse/wallet to pay for it.:evil:

People who put "drive carefully - Brat baby on board" sticker on the back of their car and then proceed to drive like a total arse.

People who like Nissan Jukes - opticians is thataway---->

People who dump rubbish at the side of the road.

Pet hates you say?

Nearly everyone and everything seems to irritate me, but at the top of my list is smoking and people who are using a mobile device in restaurants.

People who are anywhere, taking pictures on an ipad....

1: You are asking to be relieved of it.
2: You look like you are holding up a baking tray.

Add these to my earlier list...

People who don't wipe down stuff at the gym after they have sweated all over it. Cheers chunk.

People who don't put the weights back on the shelf, IN THE RIGHT PLACE at the gym... Yes, they have a number on the side so that you know how heavy they are, but it also tells you where to put it back on the rack when you have finished!

My next door neighbours and their pointless, huge conifer.
My next door neighbours (only to the right mind, the other one is spot on)

Rubbish quiz shows on the TV. Bring back 15 - 1.

Russell Brand.

I doubt this will be my last post here.....

Edit: Grammar! (Cringe/fail).

The phrases

"For Free". "Up for Grabs"

Often used my lazy and unimaginative radio and television presenters.
