Things that annoy you?

Cycle lanes that leave and join the road at a blinking right angle!

Commentators that say ‘that could have gone anywhere’ yes of course it could have, it is someone kicking a bloody ball!

Amother one I have noticed, is when they go over to a game, when there is a goal. The person at the ground says ‘it is x team that have made the ‘early’ breakthrough after 29 or 20 something minutes’. Is this really an early breakthrough? I call an early break through in the first 5/10 minutes maybe.

Weather people that say ‘there could be thunderstorms just about anywhere in the UK, so keep an eye out for them’. A little more narrowed down to locations would be a little helpful!

Also keep an eye out for them! What the actual f*ck!

A woman not in a relationship? Finding a relationship with someone prepared to settle down - also a 2 way decision.

Or a one way decision if one person wants to settle down and the other doesnt. Not everyone wants to settle down, and that applies to both sexes surely?

Chuggers.

Trying to get on the 08:11 this morning were you?

07.11, yesterday. I obviously haven’t calmed down yet!
A problem I’m sure you’re familiar with - even worse when it happens on the way home of course

Yep, happened a number of times. That Chertsey to Weybridge train is always running 3 or 4 minutes late, and it happens very often. Hence why I drive and park at Weybridge. Which reminds me, parking wardens.

Tried that for a short while but ended up often leaving the car when I went for a beer after work. Something had to give…

Exactly, which is why it’s wrong to constantly put a guilt trip on women.

You are pushing an open door here Lou, I am agreeing with you!

People that do not follow the well known but unwritten rule of the urinals and who stand next to you when there is one free at the end that would leave a space between you.

Slow typists on Instant Messenger apps.

In 2015, one of the largest recorded annoyances, particularly within the capable programming community, are slow typists on Instant Messenger. Yes, computers are easier now. There’s a higher level of abstraction. You don’t have to be Doc Brown, connecting the cables on the clock tower just to play Chucky Egg. That does not mean that these people are prepared.

One of the worst recorded incidents of slow typing occurred between two peers, united by programming profession, but separated by 3000 miles of geography. Programmer #1 was an able typist, responding to queries concisely, immediately and with proper emoticon placement (sort it out, Bear). Programmer #2 typed so slowly that the only reasonable conclusion Programmer #1 could draw, having observed on face-to-face visits that Programmer #2 was in possession of all ten fingers, was that Programmer #2 must have been naked in his living room, typing with his cock, and spamming the delete key every time his bellend landed on the wrong note.

Slow typists on IM are shit.

Bit niche there, Your papship, bit niche.

I dunno, I think Pap’s onto something there. I used my mobile company’s ‘chat’ service to sort out a problem, assuming it would be quick and pain free. For every message I typed it took them about 2 mins to respond, driving me nuts in the process. Must have been a one fingered typist.

Is that a euphemism, Lou?

I would never have thought of that - good one!

Other sites ripping our thread ideas :laughing:

That’s bizarre - their answers are practically the same too…

People who can’t be arsed queueing at petrol stations.

They walk to the front of the queue, slap a twenty pound note down, tell the person what pump they’re on and then fuck off.

Seriously, how interesting is your fucking life that standing in a 2 minute queue is a problem? What have you got going on? Time-sensitive cure for cancer simmering on the stove back at home? Fuckers.

people who get to the checkout and then remember stuff and decide to continue shopping while those behind have to wait.

Just get all of your fucking shopping and THEN go to the checkout.

Taxi drivers. Motherfuckers think they own the road and/or that they are operating to a secretive, enhanced version of the highway code that legally enables them to pull all sorts of fuckery that no sane road driver would consider.

“Ah, hello, I’ll just park my car on these double yellows next to a busy junction where you kind of need to be where I’m parked to turn left. Everything is swerving around me. I’m causing a major traffic disruption. Fuck off. I’m a taxi driver.”
