Like:
People sat or stood behind me, opposite me, or near me chewing their gum so loud and with their mouths open, and I can hear every squelch. Disgusting.

People playing their music loud enough for me to hear on public transport.

Spitting. Eurgh.

Yeseeeesssss, nikkershaw, that really pwisses me off! Talking loudly on mobile phones ANYWHERE in public really grates on me!

Smoking over a child while pushing their pram so poor child is inhaling the smoke.

Grrr people who shout on their mobiles - whats the need to shout!?

People who stand in the middle of a supermarket aisle just starring at products or blocking the aisle because their talking to a friend.

Drivers who don't indicate on roundabouts,

People who dont say thank you when you hold the door open for them.

FetchezLaVache · 08/09/2010 16:12

Yes all of those, and people eating noisily. Or picking their noses in a public place. Or revealing any arse cleavage at all.

People that blow their nose and then look at the result. What are they looking for? Their charisma?

gibbberish · 08/09/2010 16:18

Carrier bags.

People who can only drive at 40mph, whether on 30 or 60mph roads should be banned from driving. Does not make sense.

People who talk through films that you are trying to watch.

Tractors between 8 and 9am.

All cold callers.

Teenage lads who fiddle with their balls when they are wearing trackies.

I work with quite few and have started saying 'What ARE you doing? You Ok?'

They soon stop.

upahill · 08/09/2010 16:21

I'm with you gibberish about the films.
Here is another one similiar.Talking ALL the way through a gig that you have gone to see. Bonkers! You may as well stand in the pub across the road, have a pint and a laugh with your mates and save £20+ quid!

bigchris · 08/09/2010 16:22

People who tell the same stories over and over

I only work two days at the end of the week - without fail a colleague will tell me the same thing she told me the week before, drives me mad, it's usually something very boring and pointless

LadySanders · 08/09/2010 16:23

people who let their dogs crap in the middle of the pavement

hystericalmum · 08/09/2010 16:31

people filming gigs on their mobiles. I can't effing see through your arms & many bloody phones in the air. Drives me mad. Angry Plus they're more concerned about filming, they're not really watching the band!

Is this the pre-watershed version of this thread then?
