AIBU?

  1. People who write 'mmmn' instead of mmm (too onomatopoeic)
  2. People who write yeay or yey instead of yay (fucked up)
  3. People who say they baked 'flapjack', not flapjacks (twee fuckwits)
  4. Nom nom nom (stab stab stab)
  5. Anyone who says 'make love' with a straight face (gag reflex-tickling)
  6. Meegraine instead of My-graine (frankly you deserve one if you can't say it properly, sorry if you're a mIgraine sufferer and I've just really offended you, I know it's a serious condition etc etc and I wouldn't wish it on anyone who could say it properly )

That is all

  1. And people who say the above ^ (you're not Miranda Fucking Priestley, but I know this has been discussed already so I won't go on about it)

People who drive at 27 mph regardless of whether they are in a 30, 50 or national speed limit zone.

People who say 'I haven't had none' instead of 'I haven't had any' SIL I'm looking at you.

People who can't pronounce bottle - it's not 'bokkle' for fucks sake.

Don't know of its already been mentioned but technically I bake flapjack as it is ONE slab before it goes into the oven. It becomes flapjacks once cooled and cut into more than one bit

cocolepew · 29/06/2012 19:22

You all hate me Sad.

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 29/06/2012 19:23

The washing up. If I could use paper plates I would. It's just so tedious and never finished and I HATE it. It makes me stabby, stab stab stab Grin

I have no space for a dishwasher before some smartarse suggests this

MrsSee · 29/06/2012 19:24

Yama, I say "J" like "die"
I don't know why I say it like "die".

Cold callers who won't take no for an answer Angry

Just had someone at the door who just wouldn't go away.

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

cunexttuesonline · 29/06/2012 19:28

People who say 'brought' when they mean 'bought'. I see this quite often on here.

cocolepew · 29/06/2012 19:33

Steve Wright. And that bore Tim someone who is on with him.

Scarredbutnotbroken · 29/06/2012 19:39

It's aitch.

cocolepew · 29/06/2012 19:46

It's not. How can H be pronounced without the H?

Daisypod · 29/06/2012 19:47

aKskin, i think that is how you would spell it, it is ASKing!

shockers · 29/06/2012 19:52

cocolepew, I can no longer listen to Radio 2 because of 'that bore Tim'... he has a voice i'd like to punch.

JarethTheGoblinKing · 29/06/2012 19:52

No, its aitch. Haitch is beyond wrong.

Any kind of toddler cup. They all leak. Every single motherfucking one of them. Angry

Flat pack play kitchens (see my earlier thread) Angry

People who do not RSVP to toddler birthday party invitations. So, do I cater for the TEN out of SEVENTEEN of you who have not replied, or don't I? Angry

Bit of a theme here but I DO HAVE A LOT OF RAGE TODAY

VerityClinch · 29/06/2012 20:02

Oh, cocolepew, you were going to be my NBFF until you did the Haitch thing Sad

Primrose123 · 29/06/2012 20:03

Many of the things already mentioned.

I also hate, "I've got to be true to myself." Really hate it. What does it even mean anyway?

FayeWP · 29/06/2012 20:04

People who lick their fingers before turning pages - especially my boss who has really bad breath and makes all my documents stink!

Bloody PPI adverts, callers, anything to do with bloody PPI!

shockers · 29/06/2012 20:09

Primrose, it usually means at the expense of others' feelings!

Socknickingpixie · 29/06/2012 20:18

i instantly want to kill anybody who touches any buttons in my car without my expressed consent. there my buttons/controls not yours if you want to touch buttons get your own fecking car.

sorry had to get that off my chest

JarethTheGoblinKing · 29/06/2012 20:19

People who chew with their mouth open

People who order the most expensive thing on the menu, drink loads and loads of booze and then expect everybody in the group to 'evenly split the bill'. Fuck off.

People who say things like 'no, you can't have it. Stop it, you're being naughty. You're not having one! , no. You're not having it.. (over and over and over and over and over and over and over again)... then OK.. you can have one). I have to jam my fist into my mouth to stop myself saying anything.

cocolepew · 29/06/2012 20:22

Oh verity Sad. If I tell you some more bad sex stories maybe we could still be friends. I would never use any word beginning with H.
