For people who....

Chew with their mouths open
Bite spoons or forks
Don't turn off the keypress noises on their mobiles. "beep beep beep beep beep" when texting

Unreasonable? I call those basic manners.

What about you? Who would you send to the firey depths of hell?

lighthearted post

People who walk past residential areas late at night talking and laughing at the top of their voice - you know that children are sleeping - shut up!!!

Neighbours who play loud music at antisocial hours, so selfish.

People who let their kids run around all over the bus while they talk on the phone..

I could go on for ages, perhaps I'm slightly intolerant? Confused

Anyone who spits in the street should be instantly swallowed by a hideous fiery tar-demon. Then spat back out into a puddle.

People who phone whilst eating. My ex boss used to do this. It was like bails on a chalk board listening to her masticate.

I love the lighthearted post bit!

People who hack up phlegm in the street.

People who play shit music on their phones without headphones and force everyone on the bus/train to listen to it.

People who chew gum so ferociously they look like camels.

People using their phones during interactions with shop assistants.

People who 'prank call' you in order to save credit and get you to phone them back.

People who force you off the pavement and don't even thank you for putting yourself in the line of oncoming traffic.

I could go on (and on, and on, and on....)

People who block the pavement with their cars, so I have to push the buggy either into the road OR up the muddy verge where there is probably mess from dogs with arses for owners.

Excellent thread - very cathartic.

Most of the above (particularly the chewing with their mouth open) but also people who insist on having their phone on loudspeaker in public including walking down the street... it's a phone put it to your ear!!

Phew that feels better! Grin

Folk that bellow at each other in gym changing rooms/coffee places despite being right next to each other. We don't want to hear your riveting conversation.

People shouting down mobile phones on buses. People who play music on their phones for everyone else to suffer on their way home from work.

Great thread - for anyone who likes the thread you might like the programme Room 101. Think it's on BBC, but not sure if it's on at the moment.

Mine:
The minority of bad cyclists- the ones on pavements especially the one that shouted at me for being in the way and another that banged into me while I was getting off the bus.

People who go to art galleries and never actually look at the art because they are facing the other pay taking a selfie.

Heh, I love that other people are as intolerant as I am!

Apple earphones are awful-you may as well have a repeater boom box next to you. Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk noises all the time.

And I love the term asshat!
