Stupid thing that really annoy you !!

People that take time to drive to a nature reserve in the middle of nowhere, and then walk around it looking at their feet the whole time while talking on their mobile phones about tax and insurance and who's sold their house for what amount :(

I see this all the time at a couple of my favourite places. Once even when 2 great crested grebes were performing their mating dance just 10 feet from the path (the people didn't even notice).

I really don't know why they bother :shrug:
 
customers - especially filthy northern kids with ice crem that try to touch stuff and scream at the top of their diseased lungs 'is this a charity shop then' to each other

(I read kids here as up to 55)

and breathe

No need to be stereotypical. Way to generalise a whole section of England, idiot. I bet all Southerners are perfect in your shop, nice and orderly and are pleasant while us filthy northerners come to destroy your shop.

No, the Ashes in 2005 is more embarressing. In the time it took us to win one, Australia won like 17. And yet it's classed as the best Ashes ever, and can we win it again.
 
old ladies with those shopping bag on wheel contraptions who clearly have all day to wander round tesco's and buy 20 tins of catfood and 3 cabbages, and then go through the 10 items or less checkout, and then put the 20 tims of catfood and 3 cabbages into their shopping trolley contraption on top of their purse. Only when they have done this do they then realise that they have to pay for their goods, so out come 20 tins of catfood and 3 cabbages in hunt for the purse, the price is invaribale something like £9 and 64p, can they give a £10 note and get some change? No.

"I think i've got the right money here somewhere."

By the time they have emptied the contents of the purse, it's around £9.53, an old threepenny bit, a button, and an old style 50p piece........

"oh i think i've got some coppers in my bag somewhere.... how much was it again?"

At this point, me next in queue, am wanting to scream, "here's 11p now b****r off."

and then, no she hasn't got any coppers in the shopping bag, as used them up last week, so has to change a £10 note.

And then has to put all the other coins which are scattered around the conveyor belt one at a time back into the purse..........
 
Drivers who don't bother to indicate (mainly at roundabouts) really bugs me, especially if I have just rolled to a stop and the driver pulls off the exit before.... grrrrrr
 
Sensetive southern softies, and arrogant northern arses.

Now play nice. No personal insults or I'll be putting my northern grubby hands over my international ban button.

My notes and card go safely into my wallet before leaving, anyone who walks away brandishing money is risking it being snatched!.
