To ask what really fucks you off?

[IDoDaChaCha]

I know I know I was asking for it- going out in the car on a Sunday; 'Sunday drivers'... As I was sat/stuck behind yet another slow, overly cautious (shit - IMO) driver it infuriated me that she left a car sized gap between her and the car in front of her. These selfish twats idly trundle by just as the lights change leaving whoever was stuck behind them (and their massive unnecessary gap...) stuck at the lights. I curse them. What and/or who really gets you mad?

Eccentric try stepping backwards a bit as if you don't know they're so close then turning to glare at them when you invariably bump into them "do you mind!"

Cyclists. We'll drive at 15mph for miles so you can ride your bike. Makes no sense.

People who have babies they don't want and then genuinely don't understand why they hate their lives.

People who have unprotected sex and then say they are "shocked" and "surprised" when said babies are conceived. Honestly? How fucking surprising is it really though?

Prams, trikes, bastard colouring books etc clogging up the bars near me.

People who think anything remotely nice is "posh" and "not for the likes of them". Tedious as fuck.

Oh, all the cyclists rants have reminded me of one, definitely yes to cyclists who refuse to use the cycle lane, which is completely out of the way of the road and keeps them safer, but insist on weaving in between the cars. A little while ago there was a group of wannabe Bradley Wiggins all weaving their way along a long road in their lycra. Perfectly good cycle path next to us. I was getting fucked off with it as it was off putting and there were quite a few of them. I stayed close to the left to prevent them undertaking me as we came up to a junction, again still next to a perfectly good cycle path. Saw one stop behind me and gesture to my car and talk to his mate and look incredulous at me. Tough shit mate, about a meter beside you is a lane, designed just for you. Use it.

Only two things really.

Firstly people who make a meal out of reversing because the humongous car they own is too big for them to control.

Secondly people who get huffy

People who pick up their dog poo in a little bag and then leave the bag on the pavement for people to walk on, or in the gutter so it gets trodden on when people cross the road, or drive over it and spread shit all over the place.

Starting sentences with "so" including FB status's starting with 'So'.
Motor scooters and motor bikes that have had their silencers removed.
Cyclists jumping red lights.
Middle lane hoggers
Audi drivers
John McEnroe, commentating at Wimbledon, talking during periods of play rather than between points (and the production team obviously being too shit scared to tell him to stop)
Diminishing sizes of chocolate/confectionery
People calling themselves vegetarian who eat fish.
Risotto or goats cheese as a vegetarian option.

• My MiL.

-Tied in with the aforementioned, people who don't run the things they say through a filter first and are just nasty/thoughtless/rude.

• People who get a pet and then decide they can't/don't want to look after said pet and get rid of it.
• People who don't know the difference between 'have' and 'of'.
• Vague booking.
• People who don't say thank you when you stop to let them pass/open a door for them etc. I like to say "you're welcome" very loudly!

Agree with all who said people who don't pick up their dog's poo. Scumbags.

Yesterday I saw a woman in PJs and slippers coming out of the shop.
She also had a dried face pack on.

Now I live in East London so rarely bat an eyelid but I do remember thinking 'so does she care about what people think about her appearance or not?'

The PJ/facepack combo confused me. They seemed contradictory

People who have been telling the same joke/anecdote for forty years and have never picked up on the fact that they're boring everyone to tears

People who tell you to "cherish" your abusive estranged parent, because their parents were amazing and not abusive and now they're dead and they miss them!

Minstrels yes! Now only the 'sharing' (yeah right) bag is big enough. Crisp packets with 5 crisps in them. Grrrrr....

Women you've just met being miserable-faced, bitchy-attitude-having people for no discenable reason when you're speaking to them totally normally, expecting a normal reaction. Recently encountered in a waitress and a NT volunteer. Combatted with pauses and unwavering eye contact after particularly cunty replies and lots of smiles in a 'not sinking to your level but I am likely to strangle you soon' kind of way.

TheFirstMrs I actually admire the cojones on pyjama facepack mama(?). I would have laughed, don't think I'd be able to help it

People who kick off if it's suggested that their current living arrangements (top floor studio flat for example) might not be compatable with the welfare of a medium sized pet, and throw a pity party about how "pets aren't just for rich people!" and "I always had a pet growing up in my parents large house with a garden so why should my kids be DEPRIVED of largish animals just because I'm at work 40 hours a week and have zero outside space

People who think that hidden disabilities don't exist and so glare at people who appear disability free but aren't when they use the disabled toilets.

Anti-vaxers

Aggressive drivers

Next door's barking dog.

People who talk and talk and talk.

People who seem to think that a simple smile or thank you is beneath them.

she left a car sized gap between her and the car in front of her.

I get really mad by tailgaters. I tend to increase my safety gap even further if I have one behind me. And if they get left behind at a red light, even better.

OTOH, it pisses me off, at lights or traffic jams, when drivers stop then move again by a car length. Why would you want to hit the breaks more than necessary anyway? Can't you just stop and stay there until it's time to move again?

People who have hidden disabilities who think they're the only people with hidden disabilities when you'ld think they'ld get it, but NOOOOO - they launch into attacks assuming that nobody else that uses disabled seats/toilets might also have a hidden disabilities

Particularly if the other people with hidden disabilities are children!

Queuing 😡 I cannot bear it.

Kids on scooters/roller shoes in supermarkets.

And this is very petty, but I don't care- but people being passive aggressive via 'likes' on Facebook. I.e a colleague consistently likes every other co/workers pics, updates etc - but not yours. Very basic and obvious.

Cyclists who ride along tree lined country roads (so lots of shade and dappled sunlight) wearing fucking camouflage Lycra 🙄Are you trying to make me run you over you twat? How can I avoid you if I can't fucking see you? Same goes for the silly fucker that used to cycle on a major A road near me, dressed like a ninja on dark mornings. I say used to because I've not seen him for a while - probably been run over by some poor sod that didn't stand a chance seeing him.

Proper who tell me I'm being "naughty" when I'm eating chocolate. It won't make me stop eating it. It will make me eat it right on front of your face. So you can see how much I'm enjoying my chocolate. Sanctimonious twat.

Daddy long legs really fuck me off. What are they even for? Pointless flappy twats.

People who live their life on Facebook

People who describe their children as lively or active when they are just naughty and not disciplined

Parents who have numerous children then leave it to the older ones to do the bulk of the work

Laziness

Impatient drivers and those that use mobiles whilst driving

Smoking and excessive drinking around children

With the amount of congestion on our roads it'd be interesting to see the absolute mayhem caused if everyone left a car sized gap between each vehicle at lights. Add a few hours to every journey.

Actually, it would avoid many traffic jams.

It would mean that cars would have time to slow down without actually stopping or hitting the breaks hard, which causes the cars behind to also break and end up stopping.
It would also avoid many accidents because less cars would hit the one in front.

Never going to look at them the same now

My bastardy neighbours who always put their rubbish in the nearest bin out of 5, so it fills up in about 2 minutes, then once it's full pile rubbish ON TOP of that bin instead of opening one of the 4 completely empty ones right fucking next to it, so I have to spend my life playing rubbish jenga to avoid litter blowing all over the communal garden. Oh yes, and the ones who cant even manage that and just throw their shit off the balcony in the general direction of the bins. Cuuuuuuuntssssss.
