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.

Fucking inspirational quotes 😡

💐

OpheIiaBaIIs · 20/10/2017 07:41

'Ov', 'wud', 'cud', 'shud' 😠

'Lol' said aloud. Particularly in the past tense. As in 'When Sally fell over we all lolled'. Or is it lol'd? Loled? IT CAN'T BE SPELLED BECAUSE IT ISN'T A WORD

When people type “women” when they mean “woman”

This really annoys me too and I see it all the time!

Also are instead of our - WTF?

And the whole “myself” instead of me thing too.

CoughLaughFart · 20/10/2017 08:17

Those hairdos that are heavily weighted to one side. Thin women with that style look lopsided, like they're about to topple over at any time.

If it's me sheen then no!!!

PerpendicularVincent · 20/10/2017 08:31

People who pout when they're having their photo taken, or wave their arms in the air to make it look like they're having more fun.

Anybody who pulls out in front of me then drives really slowly.

Small white vans.

Ordering a bottle of wine for £28 at a bar (it was the cheapest on the menu) . Bottle is plonked on the bar with 2 glasses.

‘That will be £34 please’
When queried was told it was the optional service charge — CF ! I opted out

Men with long fingernails. Especially just the little fingernail. What’s that about? Shudder.

Iwanttobe8stoneagain · 20/10/2017 09:16

Draws though is also pronounced drors! I can't hear any difference. People who say Barth rather than bath. White linin trousers you can see skin tone through. Really short skirts in the office that only just Miss revealing underwear when sitting down. Fake laughs. Competitive parents who live vicariously through their overstretched kid. Whoever invented the current curriculum pushing children far too early!

Queenofthedrivensnow · 20/10/2017 09:33

The term 'fur baby'

WoofWoofMooWoof · 20/10/2017 09:39

People who say: I itched it. NO NO NO!! You scratched it. An itch is what you scratch - you don't itch something.

Drivers that don't indicate.

Drivers that don't look where they are going

Drivers that don't thank you when you let them out/ through etc

Drivers with no lights on when it is dark and/ or foggy

KoalaD · 20/10/2017 09:48

This. No no NO.

No no no no no

Thisismadness the one long fingernail is so that they can put cocaine/speed/MDMA up their nostril without cutting it into a line. There may be another reason, but every man I've ever encountered with this has done it to facilitate snorting of drugs. (Women can do it too, obvs, but would probably have all their nails longer do less noticeable)

Intercom · 20/10/2017 09:53

Smug round robin Christmas letters
Reverse snobbery
People who walk two or three abreast on the pavement but don't move over, so you either have to stop or walk in the road
"Safe spaces" in universities to save people from having to hear and debate views they strongly disagree with. How does banning discussion prepare anyone for the real world?
Notices which congratulate themselves on being "polite"
People who boasts that they are taking a "well-deserved" holiday. Do they think other people's holidays are undeserved?
Delivery men/women who "helpfully" leave your parcel in the bin

Patch19 · 20/10/2017 10:19

Parents why use very bad language in front of their children , parents who ignore their children because mobile phone is more important , people who double park blocking roads . The word laters

StarsAndStripes18 · 20/10/2017 10:39

@Pastorkidneys I love Carol singers but we don’t seem to have any in our village Sad

@KoalaD those nails are horrendous!

I say movie instead of film Blush

People who don’t say thank you when you hold the door open.
People (men & women) who don’t hold the door open even though you are right behind them and about to walk through but the door slams shut in your face Angry
People who don’t have basic manners to say please or thank you!

The man who told me to Fuck Off when I asked him why he wasn’t lifting his dog’s poo on the public path that my kids walk home from school on!

My brother when he corrects me on everything because he thinks he knows better, even about my own kid’s schools and about another organisation that I’m very involved in but he really doesn’t know the first thing about it Angry

My husband snoring!

IrishNinja · 20/10/2017 10:58

Bad language been used too liberally - it loses impact. It's supposed to be an expletive not punctuation.

Americans telling me how to pronounce English words, especially trailer trash hillbillies who can barely pronounce their own name.

British people getting pissed that Americanisms are used here. If you park your kids in front Disney what do you expect?

Fuckwits who think they can tell me how to speak and what to think.

People who think mom is an Americanism. It's been used in the Midlands for ages.

Channel 5.

Radio 1

E cigs. They don't just stink they look bloody stupid as well.

Cigarettes. See above

Oh and tea going cold because I was busy reading these comments.

Queenofthedrivensnow · 20/10/2017 11:27

Stars - dog poo is a whole thread. Nothing g gives me the rage more. I have a dog. I buy nappy bags I think it's 11p for 150 bags. There is no excuse whatsoever to leave poi anywhere!!!

mummaCL · 20/10/2017 11:41

Starting a sentence with so!!

TeaAndToast85 · 20/10/2017 12:06

People who refer to themselves as a 'dog mum'.

TeaAndToast85 · 20/10/2017 12:08

Also, people who humble brag on Facebook, people who say 'holibobs', people who drop litter, people who smoke in the doorways of buildings - especially hospitals, mums who barge around with their buggies and don't say thanks when you hold the door open, people who talk on their phone when being served in shops Angry
