Lately I've come across people who seem to think it's the thing to let people ON first (or IN if its a shop). A women was barging her way on to a bus &'was asked to 'let us off first please'. She responded with a 'I BEG your pardon' as is she'd been asked to show us her knickers.

When people say 'needs done' instead of needs doing.

"I must mow the lawn this weekend. I hate gardening but it needs done"

als I may have pushed her bags onto the floor and plonked my fat arse down Blush that's how I know how old she was as she started trying to rant at me about how she's 48 and never has she come across anyone as rude as me Grin

McFat bizarre behaviour!. What's the significance of being 48 I wonder?
It's not old (10 years older)!

People who cut up everything on their plate, then swap the fork into the right hand to shovel up the bite sized bits. This was a deal breaker for me in a previous relationship.

"Om nom" is worse than "yum". I want to kill people who type that on facebook.

"Yum" is acceptable if you are a child, or a character in a comic strip.

Noisy breathers.

There is one at work who breathes with her mouth open whilst eating soup.

Yuck.

People who say or write "irregardless" it is not a real word.

A lot of these, but at the moment my pet hate is people stepping onto the road when you are crossing, then going off in all directions. Just cross the road in a straight line then choose your direction!

Parents who take up the entire path and walk at the speed of smell whilst chatting after dropping their kids off at school. There are people behind you who need to get to work on time. I appreciate you are in no hurry, but please leave space to let others through!

All of the above. Grin

Math for maths.

Loud parenting and constant talking to toddlers to show off so it's 'what's the French word for dog Otto?' Ffffssssake. Piss right off.

When Dp closes the curtains and leaves a little gap in the middle.
WHY THE FUCK??? why bother? I have to get out of bed to correct them.

When DP cleans the kitchen but doesn't sweep or steam the floor.

When dP comes back from the pub and falls asleep downstairs with the tv on really loud so if I happen to wake in the night it keeps me up until I go down and turn it off.

dP in general this week Grin

Mama, 'needs doing' is very English. In Scotland nobody would ever say that; it would always be 'needs done'.

People who stop in shop doorways to chat or rummage through their handbag so you can't get through !
Shop theme again. Not letting go of their trolley so taking up six foot of a display so you can't get to any of the shelves. Rant rant

"Needs to be done" surely. Presenters on tv who say "I was sat there...."

Personal space invaders. People who want to kiss/touch/hug me without invitation. Get away from me. Angry

People who use the word 'enjoy' as an instruction.

People who insist on telling the person on the checkout at the supermarket their life story and forgetting to pack their shopping in the mean time/the checkout operator listening to them and not scanning said shopping. Particularly annoying if you have just done an 8 hour shift on your feet all day and have had to stop on the way home when you really don't want to.

People who mess up the displays i've just created in work/don't hang things back on hangers. Boy do they get the "look" if I catch their eye. Especially when i'm hungover.
Bolschy customers. I don't fucking care if you can get it for 50p cheaper down the road- go there if it matters that much to you.
Customers who think i've got all day to stand around and listen to their life story when theres 5 people queuing at the till to pay. I don't care if i'm being a rude fucker, i'm here to do my job- not listen to a complete stranger tell me about his fucking bunions. I do love my job- honestly Grin

Drivers who don't indicate. Drivers who don't look at roundabouts/junctions. Drivers who drive up my arse because I don't have any particular desire to get a speeding ticket/points on my licence/to spend more on car insurance.
