What really annoys you?

Oversized Electric bikes, more specifically when grown “adults” drive them down pavements at 20+ mph, and into shops.

I am one argument away from deliverooing a clothesline the next whopper that nearly runs me over, or throwing the next bike I see outside a takeaway into the middle of the road, just to see if they get the hint.

There were about 5 of them yesterday on E-Scooters....all I'd guess in their mid to late 20's, they sure as hell weren't teens. Seemed like high school buddies as they all were identical with their Tommy Bahama gear. Ok, so who's the drunk? Not one of you owns a car/can drive?

So wanted to mow them down, they were all lined up in a train.

I have many things:

Flys (If i could remove one thing from planet earth it would be these little *(&(*^&^*ers!!!!!) Especially when your try to wave them away from your food :rant::rant::rant:

Noisy eaters, oh my! It literally puts me off my food and their is no need for it, feel like punching the person doing it.

Loud people (attention seekers) people who just make noise to be noticed!
Holding a door open or letting someone pass without any acknowledgement. "Oi [Poor language removed] weres your manners" :rant::rant:
Agreed. Utterly and totally. The wife eats like a dog and speaks through mouthfuls of food. I've noticed her sister and mum do the same, it fecking revolting stuff. God knows how I didn't notice it before we got hitched.

But this is just the tip of an enormous iceberg for me. I really darent start.

(I'll just say advertising, the quality of BBC reporters & programming, the predictability of modern films, VAR, corruption, modern european football competitions, politicians, racists, selfishness, wealth disparity, lycra cycling packs, roadworks, traffic lights, overcooled beer, gentrified pubs, nuveau cuisine, chain restaurants, car parking charges, the lack of nhs dentistry, bankers, parents not controlling loud kids in quiet public spaces, parents who call their kids "mate" or "princess", cats, people who call themselves "cat parents", ofsted, horseflies ([Poor language removed]), arthritis, overbloated oversized modern cars, the price of crisps, the fact that cheese flavoured crisps don't taste of cheese anymore, background music everywhere autotune, auto correct, repetitive computer generated music, form filling, insurance, Elon Musk, the fat orange pillock and his US cult, and of course the RS)

Mustn't grumble though.

You missed Romans.
 

Almost anything to do with mobile telephones. WTF is on there that everything is so interested in? Cos my 'phone definitely doesn't have it and I feel like I need it.

Peter Drury.

The constant misuse of 'less' when it should be 'fewer' especially by people who should know better. And also the misuse of reflexive pronouns: 'yourself' isn't a synonym for 'you'. And if you don't know when to use 'me' and when to use 'I', then learn. Don't make it even more wrong by landing on 'myself'. "Great picture of Stevie G and myself dogging at a layby just off the A500 just like old times" - Spitty, 2019. Probably.

Advertising. Flipping everywhere all the time.

The number of streaming services required to be able to watch some half decent tele. Also, stick in there any TV show where someone's feelings or origin story is in any way highlighted. Look, It's sad your dog died while you were escaping from persecution in the Isle of Man, but can you hurry up and play Ride or the Valkeries on that kazoo so Toffees superfan Amanda Holden can give you the golden buzzer? Think you've had it hard, she was married to Les Dennis FFS.

Also endless nostalgia. The love of the 90s (which was great tbf) has got to a critical mass meaning Oasis are touring again FFS. We've gone too far.

People banging on about Donald Trump. Yes, he's a functioning moron. No I don't know what crazy thing he's just done/twittered/farted in morse code - but I think you're going to tell me anyway.

See also: twitter culture and anything any famous person or any other has to say about any topic (even something they're qualified to talk about).

I'm sure there's more. I'm pretty tired. Sodding kids wouldn't go to sleep because they're "too hot". When I was a kid in the 90s we were sewn into our thermals year round and cooled down in summer from being drenched in sweat.
