Pet hates

[Bishopston]

Another thread mad me think of this - but girly social media stuff namely:

((((((Hugs))))))))

And it's ilk!!!! Basically the false intimacy reflected in fb and the like!

[SenecaFalls]

Anyone who think "gotten" is a real word and uses it in writing or out loud!

"Gotten" is a real word. It is correct in American English. It is an earlier form brought with the colonists that remained in usage in the US but that dropped out of British English, although it is used some in Scotland, I believe.

People who ask you to take your shoes off when you visit their house - you bought that cream carpet - YOU deal with it.
People who don't turn the keypad sounds off on their phones.
People who say 'rock up' when they mean 'arrive'.
Whistlers.
People who hang around chatting in our tiny office kitchen I have to say 'excuse me' about 8 zillion times while I'm trying to get my coffee fix.

[gotothegymtomorrow]

The use of the word 'hun' and other patronising ways of referring to someone, makes me feel awkward when someone does it to me but really annoys me!

[ICantDecideOnAUsername]

'Asdas' (as in "I've just been to Asdas")! No, it's not plural, it's called Asda. Just Asda.
Shop assistants who chat/gossip on the phone or to a colleague instead of serving you. You know, the customer, who you are paid to serve. Several companies have lost my business through their staff doing this. Beyond rude.
When dh mixes up all the laundry in the airing cupboard - is it so hard? (sheets; back right, protectors; back left, towels; front right, duvet covers; front left and clothes on top separated into wearer! See not hard!)

I'm sure I'll like of others...

[SnowyPiglet]

People rustling sweet wrappers in the cinema, or constantly stuffing popcorn into their mouths, so that not only is it noisy but you get the sickly sweet smell wafting around as well. (Why the f* can't cinemas only sell QUIET sweets?)

And 'gotten' is a really annoying word, whatever it's history.

[AuntOlive]

Being 'undertaken'.

Being overtaken by twat in souped up Corsa while driving at 30mph in 30mph zone on residential road.

[Quasicrystals1456]

Door hoggers at the classroom door. Either book an appointment or move out the way!

My 5yo can't get into the classroom ffs. What are you talking about at the door? Every fucking day? move

[Alisvolatpropiis]

People who use "ignorant" incorrectly.

[iamadaftcoo]

Uptight people. So:

• people who get annoyed about things other people wear (why the fuck would you care?)
  
• people who get annoyed about how other people speak (why the fuck would you care?)
  

One thing that does annoy me is people who put the loo seat down in public toilets because they think when they flush it evil germs come and fly up.

People who are uptight about hygeine generally annoy me.

[Fatmomma99]

I'm SO happy I read the whole thread - every single fucking thing I was going to mention has come up.

agree with EVERY post!!!

(thought I'd struck gold with people who spit in your face when they speak, [as my uncle did yesterday... "spray that again, unc!"] but no... taken!)

Just left with the new first class stamp system, where you send a card and the poor bugger you send it to has to pay extra because it's the mysterious bigger size.

Plus anyone who dithers in front of me, no matter what context (I WAS going to say people who look surprised to pay in a supermarket, but that's gone).

Can I boldly add "anyone voting for UKIP who pretends they're not racist" to the mix?

[ChickenMe]

Over zealous people on Facebook who are all xxxx and mwah and thank crunchie it's Friday..hey it's super Saturday..this is so cool and the gang. Yep I k ow someone like that. She is 40 not 12 and has a beetle with flowers on it

[ImSoCoolNow]

People on Facebook who want to show you how amazing their lives are and tag themselves everywhere they go and inform us of everything they're doing. (If you were really having that great a time you wouldn't be on Facebook)

People on Facebook who post vague statuses about something that's going on in their lives then when someone comments on it say 'don't really want to talk about it' or 'I'll pm you' Don't put that shit on a public forum unless you're going to divulge!

[Blackbeanchips]

SnowyPiglet I hate popcorn and sweets eating in the cinema - but i once sat through a film beside someone eating a Gregg's hot meat pasty. Really bloody smelly. He kept it in the paper bag and tried to eat it in a stealth like fashion so very slowly and rustled the entire time. Then after he finally finished he got out a second one. I thought I was going to cry I was so angry.

[TweeBee]

Defiantly instead of definitely. Makes people sound like tantrumming toddlers.
His instead of he is
Been instead of being
This is doing my blood pressure no good!

[FirstWeTakeManhattan]

Nom
Nom nom
Foodie
Stupid/Any fucking hashtags
Lol (obviously)
People who just voted Tory. Thanks, you guys.

[M00nUnit]

"Then" instead of "than" seems to be happening more and more at the moment. E.g. "I'm better then you".

It's just as annoying as "should OF"/"would OF" etc.

"Your" when you mean "you're" really grates on me too.

[goldopals]

I detest poor grammar, spelling and punctuation on the internet. I find it hard to read and ignore offending posts. I hold my tongue because some part of me does know that there are reasons. I really do not like the overuse of punctuation used to make a point.

RUNS AND HIDES
Wonders how long it will be before someone finds a SPAG mistake in my post

How on Earth did that post three times? I do not hate problems with spelling, grammar and punctuation that much!

[avocadotoast]

Whistlers. Can't deal with it; goes right through me. I'm incredibly glad I'm on maternity leave partly because I've escaped a whistler at work

[Geography999]

People who post on Facebook that they have cleaned their house.

[blueskydrinking79]

People who queue at the ATM and shuffle for their card when they get to the machine.

People who press the button at the lights and cross before the green man comes leaving me stuck at a red light in my car for no reason.

Moat others have been mentioned above but I'm sure I will think of more

[Ashbeeee]

All of the above. I love you guys. Ah, there's another one : 'guys'. Nope, we are women/men, or ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. Grrrr

[Ashbeeee]

Mobile phone usage at the cinema. And talking during concerts /theatre (middle class problems, I know ),, and people who have to go for a wee during a concert. Really? 45 minute set and you can't hold it, or go before? Are you all 5 years old? All of you? Yes that will be the constant stream of you walking in front of the at the Hammersmith Apollo at Hans ZImmer. You know who you are.
