People in supermarkets on their phones and not emptying their trolleys on an empty conveyor belt, while you are trying to get a move on. Nearly had a fight with one guy! 😠

Living semi - rural we have an added phenomenon when it comes to shopping
small Petrol stations which are also mini-markets ...which is fine
Until somebody fills up with fuel leaving car on the pump you are waiting for then goes inside and does a weekly shop for 15 minutes...arrghhhhh...
note : parking is available away from pumps ....
People who drive right up to a roundabout or junction then stop, look, then go when you could see it was completely clear from miles back and there were no other cars anywhere near!

People who drive 38 in a 40 then drop down to just under 35 when there's a camera. Absolute cretins.
I have thus far been able to teach them to pick their noses first and ears second. Might have been the taste of earwax that taught them instead of me to be honest. I’ll try to add your concerns on the long list. I’m sure I’ll get there eventually.Originally Posted by MrSmith
I find it’s not unusual to bump into ill behaving little people when out and about, but mostly they seem to be adults, not children. Let’s add hostile attitude towards children on the list of things I’ll never understand.
What's third?

You tell me. What are the additional body crevices that require picking? Please enlighten me. I’d be happy to add to my list of things to teach my children.
I do think it should be possible in this day and age with modern tech. to link the packaging to the customer so they can be fined if it is found as litter in the street etc. Perhaps if paying by mobile the vendor prints an indelible link on the cup or packet at the point of sale so it can be traced back some devious way? Just a thought anyway

I’m not hostile towards children, just parents who can’t manage to get their children (I’ll not include toddlers/infants) to not pick/fondle/squeeze/lick stuff they have no intention of buying.
Mind you there’s plenty of adults who do that and they really should know better!?
I mean picking a bread loaf up with your hands, giving it a squeeze and putting it back. FFS.
Why don't they make toilet bowls with a non-stick lining?
Or they could add teflon to our food?
Idiot spectators at the TdF who want to be on tv rather than watch the race.
How to open a packet of pasta without splitting the plastic bag so that pasta goes everywhere

I'd add rice to that, and cous cous. Basically anything that you don't want to go everywhere, is what usually does!

I’ll add to that people who zoom up behind you in an average speed check zone on the motorway and tailgate you until you pull over and let them drive 20mph over the limit. And there’s signs everywhere saying average speed check, it’s not like you could miss it. You want a ticket? Fine have one then!
PS - I’ll add to that people who hit the brakes when they’re approaching a corner that they could have taken at twice the speed, then inch round it so slowly that when you’re following them on a motorbike, you have to slip the clutch in first or you’d stall.

How Forrest Gump beat The Shawshank Redemption to an Oscar.
People who wear masks but don't have it covering their nose.
FFS it's been 14 months! It takes less time to potty train a toddler.
Folk that find it acceptable to join a motorway at 45 mph, while the queue that has formed unbeknown to them behind have all sorts of bother joining the flow of traffic.
Normally someone old or a woman.
Why they don't just block mobile phone signals in prisons.
People that immediately stop after stepping off escalators while chaos ensues behind them.
Women who stand 10 mins in a checkout queue, look mildly surprised when asked to pay, then spend the next 5 mins frantically looking for their purse.
Spot on - and similar when the person at the front of a queue for a lift takes one step in when the lift doors open - even if the lift is empty - blocking access for everyone else!
Absolutely does my nut, that one!
Why people wear a smart watch with bit of string or manky leather around the same wrist.
Ha. I wear a bit of string around my watch wrist. It was given to me by my wife’s grandmother many years ago. It’s a very common custom in Thai culture.

Why Thai people gift a bit of string to wrap round your wrist when people really want a Rolex

They mean a lot more than any Rolex to some.

That’s not just in the countryside, stores like Tesco and Sainsbury’s often have a petrol station next to them.
For some reason Sainsbury’s seems to be the main place this happens, people getting petrol, leaving the car at the petrol pump then going into pay and do the weekly shop while they are there (Presumably they don’t notice that massive supermarket opposite with a car park with about 50 to 100 parking spaces)
Being banned from forums and rejoining under a different name.
Suspect that many who readily denounce 'sky fairies' also wear them.
And rightly so (said after taking tongue out of cheek)
Or better still, cause an accident:

Or people who drive just under the limit approaching an average speed check camera then floor it once past it only to do the same thing further up the motorway then repeat until average speed check ends then floor it again.
The passenger in that car must feel like they are in a washing machine.
Film and TV programs that use clearly empty disposable coffee cups on screen instead of filling them with water so it at least looks and behaves like it contains coffee.
you can tell they are empty as they wouldn't wave em around as much if they had hot coffee in.
Steam pans with metal handles .
People who buy a tatty fake modern box to sell an old watch.

What is the point??!
Online bickering.
Salted caramel ice cream.
Wave-particle duality.
Narrow-mindedness.
Pulleys.
I have read and re-read the maths behind it, but I still cannot quite accept it
Scallies insisting on keeping their puffa jackets on irrespective of the 25degree sunny days.
R&B
I mean what is that?
I do not think it is just music I do not like.
I do not like most jazz, but I can sort of understand what they are doing.
This electronic-edited singing/rapping over some crap music, that seems to come out of every car window of those puffa-jacket wearers (see above). I mean, come on - you cannot be taking anything from that.
Joggers who carry water.
Monster energy drink drinkers (see much of above)
Whiskey. Totally lost on me. £100 glass or £4 glass… all the same. Some tastes more like earth than others. But that is it. All taste awful

I don’t understand people that don’t understand that most parents have to work
The parents I've seen don't look like they've come straight from work to pick the kids up.
What should they look like? I work from home so could be in shorts, scruffy t-shirt or I could be in business casual.

Joggers running on the road holding up traffic when there's a perfectly good footpath with no one on it right next to them.
or cyclists and there is a cycle path to their left.
or the cyclist that stops peddling as soon as you are behind them.
People (usually young) who say ‘I’ll get a coffee’. No you moron, that’s what the barista is for. It’s ‘I’d like a coffee’. I think it’s another Americanism but it makes no sense whatsoever!

You can look masculine and be feminine. Why don't straight girls all like body builders with tats? Why don't straight guys all like skinny chicks? The answer is that no matter someone's sexuality, they're going to fancy someone different to you. I think your actual question might be why do some people follow sterotypes?
I do this, in an attempt to show people which way I'm going. I understand how they're supposed to be used, but so many people don't indicate and then turn left, I feel it necessary to show that I'm not doing that. It's a reaction to seemingly most other raod users not having functional indocators.
And lunchtimes, which is more annoying and more unecessary. At what point do you start to want to go to shops when they're at their busiest?
That's your problem, right there.
Not wearing pyjamas.
