Motorists who, in a world full of cheap Sat Nav devices, still drive off to a destination they've never visited
before without one and then cruise around asking anyone in sight for directions.

Children when they are playing happily down the road, you spot their mum/dad who are your neighbours and stop to chat. Said child sees you talking to their parent and runs up to you both and asks a question. Parent answers and turns back to you to continue your conversation but child persists in talking and asking inane questions to disrupt your conversation.

I usually say "well i will catch up with you later i can see you are busy"

I want to say " you are a nice neighbour otherwise i wouldn't bother talking to you but you have a rude child which you should have a licence to own it and you have no control over it.

Is it just me ?

I really hated it when Starbucks started that stupid thing of asking your name as you ordered you coffee. At 6am on a Monday morning JUST GIVE ME MY COFFEE !!!!!!!!!!

When asked for my name in places like Starbucks I give a false name and if they want the postcode they get the one of my bank.

Crap weather.

And then those people that at the first sign of the sun, start moaning that's it too hot.... Go away.

 

[swee'pea99]

Cold callers who use 'yourself' rather than 'you', presumably thinking it sounds more professional or posh or something.

They get told to sod off politely.
Do NOT need my bloody name for a cup of coffee

A new one... My old lifestyle. Over the last 12 months, exercise has become a massive part of my life (I'm pretty obsessed with training) I've lived in my house for 3 years, but most of it has been spent sat on my rear end.

I've got a new mountain bike, been out on it this morning and found this:

And it's thirty seconds from my house. What was I doing for 3 years?

Anyway. To get this back on track and lose the sentimentality....

The phrase "they don't make em like they used to"... Probably not, but the new ones are probably better and more suited to modern lifestyles. Don't like it? Sod off back to the 30's.

Forgetting my towel at the gym, and having to use the crappy blue-roll to wipe down machines.

The phrase "How's you" ??? it's How are you! It makes me maaaaaaaad!!!

I have used, in no particular order: Lynsey DePaul, Helen Mirran, Alannah Miles, Elaine Paige, Janice Long, Annie Nightingale, Joan OfArk , Ann OfCleeves, Victoria Wood, Amelia Earhart and a ton of others over the years.
I think that its funny. I don't like Starbucks but I have a friend who does. She aways gives me that 'what again' look.

I got caught with the this for the first time the other week, however, given what I do for a living and the fact that I was in uniform meant that I had to refrain from doing anything remotely stupid, and gave my real name. I died a little inside.

Yeah but when your real name's Hugh Janus it doesn't matter.

The conservatives & over immigration.

Colleagues who seem to stand right over, or right next to you when they have a stinking cold...'Faaarrrrk offff, I dont want yer stinking cold' is the usual response.

Its a strange mentality, subconcious I think, they never stand so close normally.
