That Person who you irrationally dislike be they a celeb, someone you know, or a family member, the criteria being they are harmless and have done nothing to warrant your dislike of them except their very personality?

And you know that the fact you don't like them is really unreasonable but they make you absolutely seethe?

Or AIBU?

Carly Rae Jepson. Especially that bit in the video where she tells Tom Hanks that she's pregnant . So annoying but is probably lovely in real life.

Brendan O'Carroll. As funny as sticking rusty nails in your eyes

Lenny Henry. NOT FUNNY, JUST SHOUTY.

Now he's a 'serious' actor he's even more annoying. Why do we have to have Lenny Henry on TV when Eamonn Walker and Brian Bovell, and Rudolf Walker, and Idris Elba, and Adrian Lester-any black man anywhere, basically-still live and breathe? They can all do the specifically black parts, and the not-race-specific parts can go to absolutely anyone. The Controller of BBC One's dog. I'd rather watch Darcus Howe, and he's insufferable. Just don't put LH on telly.

Katie on I Can Cook. I hate the poor woman, and always have. No valid reason whatsoever.

Rory I am disabled myself. I thought that on the Office and in Extras, Ricky Gervaise mocked widespread attitudes to disability in a thought provoking way. He is playing a character, the stuff he says is not his actual viewpoint.

Sandi Toksvig makes me feel murderous

A friend lives in the same road as her. Apparently she and her DP (?DW - not sure if they are married) are lovely and great neighbours. Sorry.

The only thing worse than finding out that your heroes are gits IRL is finding out that your pet hates are pleasant Grin

Hmm at all the dolphin haters. Weirdos. Now swans on the other hand - evil, smug bastards with their "We belong to the Queen, actually" vibe...

And YY to Katherine Jenkins. Throw her to the swans, I say.

His characters may be fictional but his personal Twitter feed were he has joked about "mongs" is not nor is the stuff he has said on stand up tours. I doubt if you watched Politics stand up you would continue to think well of him

Oh, has anyone said CJ from Eggheads yet? Smug, self satisfied git. A friend of mine met him at a pub quiz and apparently he is every bit as arrogant as his screen persona suggests.

Frogs, frogs. Did you see the shortlived quiz effort thing he did, beat the egghead twat, i think it was called? He was so rude to the contestants, i know it was meant to play out that way but he really meant it. He couldn't conceal his contempt or even try to make it play for tv.

Nothing irrational in your dislike there.

See Sandi Toksvig used to annoy me, but I've done a total U-turn over the years, she's won me over!

beat the egg head twat Grin I'd have watched that, I think. You're right though FastWindow: he's a perfectly legit dislike. Toksvig will NEVER win me over because I won't give her the chance. I guess I'm just a bitch.

Well frogs i believe he allegedly used to be a rent boy, forgive my defamy CJ but I'm almost sure im right?

He'd probably correct your technique mid-session Grin

Having read this entire thread I realise I don't hate many annoying celebs at all. I find lots of the names mentioned s bit but blah but none bring me out in a rage, apart from maybe Josie long!!! Oh and I also hate hate hate Melanie Philips but that's not exactly irrational as her views are so vengeful. Think maybe I need some more celebs to hate or perhaps real life people I don't know as it would perhaps lessen the rage I'm currently feeling towards a woman whose meant to be a friend! It began as a bit of jealousy plus annoyance over her saying a couple of insensitivite things, though that was ironed out in a very adult way, but for some reason my hatred has grown internally to the point when little things about her which I used to really quite like I now cannot stand and want to slag off with someone for ages - eg she is not interested in fashion at all and dresses most of the time for pure practicality (hence no shame in wearing ugly rain coats when they are needed etc) and quite oddly if I'm honest when dressing up (very bright colours, often dated, sometimes unflattering) which I used to find a breath of fresh air and really unique whereas I now just want to scream look in the fucking mirror / buy some new clothes you have enough money aaaagh
