No no no no no

[WoofWoofMooWoof]

I'll start this off:

The mom outside school today who said to her 3-year old: "Move it! Fuckin' hell, why are you so slow!"

Skinny jeans on men.

MenOpausal - Aaah!

The writing of ' My DD / DS as a bad cold' Is this how you actually talk? Do you not actually realise that the word is has?

Workmen on construction sites who play their radio at top volume all day.

Eff off, you selfish twats - we don't all want to listen to BoganFM for 8 hours solid.

People who park next to me when I've got the windows open and smoke/play loud music/leave their engine running. People who leave work and still wear their hi-vis jackets as they think it makes them look important.
The expression 'to be fair'

British people who say ‘obligated’ instead of ‘obliged’.

Members of senior management who organise group meals or activities on every single evening of a business trip. I’ve listened to people and networked all day, I’m tired and now I just want to order room service and go to bed.

Grammar police and pronunciation police!

The dickheads that let their dogs shit on the path outside my dds school and sometimes the steps leading to the playground. It is almost every fucking day, the council wont clean it and the parish council dont so its a game of dodge the shit

The current trend for not showing teeth when you smile in photos - usually by the same people who do duck face selfies. The smile ends up looking like a smug sneer and in not way looks genuine. When did teeth become so unfashionable?

Entitlement about parent and baby spaces, little Tarquin can't possibly walk or be in the rain

People in ill fitting or unironed clothes

Children in clothes way too big especially school uniform, it just looks awful. Buy the right size fgs

People who walk 2/3/4 abreast down the corridor at work and don't even attempt to move out of your way. Where do you actually expect me to go?

Also, people to whom it comes as a surprise that they have to pay when reaching a till and then enjoy nothing more than a good long hunt around for the correct change.

Draws/Drawers Question

Winter draws on/Winter drawers on =
Season approaching/Time to put on warm knickers! 😀

I think draws/drawers are words known as homophones, e.g. wood/would, read/reed, tire/tyre

slinks back to the comfort of Pedants' Corner

Draws and drawers are not homophones to people who pronounce the two words differently though.

I'm from the NE and would pronounce 'drawers' something like 'draw-ahs' but spoken quickly.

People who share posts on social media about missing kids without bothering to read the comments underneath*

*I have a friend who does this daily - she must trawl the internet for them. On every single occasion a quick scan of the comments would have told her that said child was found safe and well shortly after being reported missing.

Oh, and she also shares posts about missing kids from places like Arkansas and Sydney, despite living in East London, and, (on one memorable occasion), she put up a post about a child who had gone missing 4 years previously, (and had been found on the same day).

When there is an empty bus/public space. Somebody comes and sits right next to you.

Men who police women's food and drink choices but don't do it to other men.

Sexism/chauvinsm in general.

People who push past you without saying excuse me.

People who can't understand that different people pronounce words differently because of accents

People who go on about how much better things were for everyone years ago - kids had respect, we did as we were told, we played out all day......you see it on facebook a lot. Life was perfect then....no, it bloody well wasn't!!

People who can't understand that different people pronounce words differently because of accents.**

Despite arguing the whole thread through about it being ‘drors’ not ‘draws’ I take your point......however

People who write DRAWS when they are talking about DRAWERS

Loose or loosing instead of lose or losing - they are completely different words! Do they sound the same in some accents?

Disinterested instead of uninterested.

Men wearing blue suits with brown shoes.

Saying 'pissed' when you mean 'pissed off'. You are NOT American you knob, you come from Ilford.

People who don't indicate (special circle of hell reserved for these)

People who spit on the pavement (should be frogmarched to the nearest police station to have their nasal passages filled with quick drying cement)

Would of/could of

Orange skin/obvious lip fillers/sharpie brows - you look REVOLTING

The way my sofa cushions toboggan off the front of the sofa

Aaaaaah..........

When people say baby as babby (From
Yorkshire) but it really winds me up!

People who act like they have never been theough and airport in their life and wait until they reach the front of security que to realise they havent for their liquids out/belt/shoes off need to remove their coat and laptop from the bag.

Just drives me bats

People who pull their eyebrows off, only to have to draw them back on every morning.
WTAF???! Is life not difficult enough?
(In all seriousness if anyone on here does that, please PLEASE tell me why)

People who air their grievances on Facebook “oh I don’t want to be a dick but so and so owes me money and hasn’t paid me back and claims she’s broke but I know she’s paid for xyz...”

People who believe Facebook is real life - the like and share or else sick child dies brigade

People who don’t like something you’ve posted on Facebook in case dog rescue place on Facebook see that they’ve liked it and have a go at them (true story) - no bother if a fb post doesn’t get any “likes”

Essentially I’m bothered by people. And Facebook. I should work on that.
