The sound of people eating. I can't be in the same room as someone eating if I'm not eating something myself.

i can never be around my step brothers eating. Even drinking a cup of tea, they don't drink they seem to try and inhale it whilst making loudest slurping noise I have heard.

When you get fluff over your japs eye, meaning that when you piss it goes everywhere.

Those annoying charity collector types that hang around shopping centres, waiting to jump in front of you or follow you round, I find these people annoying, also is it a requirement for them all to have dreads to get the job?.

People call them Chuggers. An amalgamation of the words "Charity" and "Mugger".

I prefer to call them "Chunts".

I can't describe how much I hate those people. I wish they'd all get in a bus and drive over a cliff.

Much as I agree with you, I also quite admire them, because they must know everyone hates them, yet they keep plugging away. Of course, it's a vicious circle, as they apply fake chumminess to not let their feelings get hurt when people ignore them, which of course is quite blatant and makes people dislike them even more.

Has anybody ever encountered those people that stand really close to you when your having a conversation?, I used to work with a guy who constantly did this. Even when I took a step back he would move at the same time.

Next time one of them stops you, say "My accountant deals with all of my charity donations at the year end via salary sacrifice". Works for me every time, as they don't know what to say....

Pretty sure they just mutter about how much of a tw@ you are as you stroll off.

All about context though isn't it? I mean those cycle paths can quite often be in absolutely awful condition. The blue cycle lanes in London also offer very little in the way of protection, and being placed on the left hand side of the road also places you right in the way of vehicles turning left, which is far and away the biggest cause of fatalities. I can't remember a single instance of a death being caused by someone jumping a red light.

Compare red light jumping to going over the speed limit. How many drivers can honestly say they never once exceed the speed limit on each journey they make?

Anyway, back on topic, spitting is something that I don't like. Don't see any need for it, especially in public.

Over on this side of the pond at least, chances are the roads and cycle paths are in equally crap condition, unless it's winter and you're in one of the many municipalities that doesn't plow its bike paths.

Never biked in England, so can't attest to the bike lane design there, but I've never heard of somebody getting hit by a car turning right. Mayhaps the wider Yank roads make it less of an issue? Running into somebody's open car door happens though in bike lines. New York is notorious for having practically unusable bike lines, but that isn't the case in most of the rest of the country.
