People who take up too much space

[Agent64]

The woman wearing the rucksack type bag in Waterstone's - bashing people and knocking things over every time she turned round. Also guilty of barging from the front as well as ambushing from the rear.

The gathering of Friends Reunited in the supermarket - five or six of them blithely blockading the aisle with their three large trolleys while they caught up with their chat.

The man claiming his right to a soon-to-be-vacated parking space by parking in the middle of the road so that no-one else could get by.

AIBU?

I sat on the window seat once and put my bag on the seat next to me.

The bus was pretty empty at the time otherwise I wouldn't have done it.

Older lady gets on the bus tuts at me so I move my bag and she sits there. Loads of other empty seats available - I think she was just trying to make a point haha.

Oh and husband. We have a smallish bedroom, there is only really space for one person to be getting dressed at a time, as we both need to access the wardrobe / chest of drawers to get clothes out.

So, in the morning, why does he wait until the exact time that I want to get dressed before standing in the way, like a big lump of meat? He could stay in bed until I'm done (he doesn't need to leave the house for an hour and a half after I do).

yama I had the reverse of this today - the man who blocked the checkout with his trolley so that I couldn't unload until he'd paid, by which time the people behind were doing the insane shuffling thing - people I had nowhere to go! AAaaaaaaargghhh

Ah yes Agent did you get a trolley up the bum to urge you to move a cm nearer?

Second that people who stop at the top or bottom of escalators are annoying. And in London you stand on the right and walk on the left- it is not a difficult concept people! Also families who shop altogether and insist on all 6 of them going into small shops and taking up all the available space!

My teeny cat who can curl up on a small cushion who then plonks herself in the middle of my side of the bed and stretches out to what feels like a metre and then growls if you disturb her

Woman with 3 dogs who walks along the wall side with her dogs taking up the whole pavement and expected me to step out in to the road with my young DD.

Both my boys stand on doorways. Always in bloody doorways, on the phone, iPad, reading, scratching their bits... Always in doorways. Why??.

Escalators! Pavements! Buses! Boy am I cranky today...

Perhaps we should all just stay in.

DD who sleeps like a star fish in the middle of my bed.

This thread is hilarious!

Barging from the front and ambushing from the rear. This made me laugh!

People in shopping centres that take up a whole lift when there's a cue of prams, wheelchairs etc. and they are perfect capable of using the escalators!

Reading out the replies to DDs - the laughter has relieved the stress of our shopping trip

DD1 has asked me to add people who shunt their tray into yours at the self service cafe.

YY to people shoving their trollies into your bum while you're waiting for the person in front of you to finish and not encroach on their space while they put in their PIN etc. Also shoppers who start to unload their shopping before i have even finished unloading mine. I do say excuse me I'm not finished but come on people it's not rocket science to see my trolly is still half full.

Both happened today at the supermarket - grr...

OOh yes Agent64DD1 that is sooo annoying.

Inconsiderate arses who stand in the entrance to shopping centres/shops smoking (by the no smoking sign usually), so that my children and I have no choice but to breathe in your noxious fumes while trying not to get burnt. Tits.

Slow moving people who wander at a snail's pace in the middle of the path/walk way etc veering from side to side just enough to stop you from over taking. If you are slow fine, just move to one side and let others past. Please.

relatives who spread their newspaper/sewing/whatever they are doing over the whole sofa and continue obliviously as you sit on the floor looking longingly at the 3 seater sofa occupied by 1 but are too polite bloody stupid to mention.

people who are so large that you cannot get your theatre seat down without asking them to stand up and then only get half a seat to sit through a whole show on.

people who can't walk in a straight line on pavements and trip you up/walk into you/walk on your heels

my dh and dd standing peter pan style in the kitchen they are both very tall and elboys are at my eye level it is annoying ,

People in dressing gowns, sometimes attached to a drip stand crowding the entrance to the hospital having a fag. They have supplied a smoking shelter you know.

i have a teeny kitchen I have not got giants in the house still annoying though

elbows*

YANBU! At all, I hate this. Especially people who want my parking space before I have even unloaded kids, shopping into car. And then get so close to me I can hardly reverse out -fuck off!
