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.

Nom-nom eaters
People who pronounce 'H' 'haitch'
People who say 'didn't used to'
People who drive at 30 or 40 mph, regardless of speed limit
People who say 'irregardless'
Gobshites and piss-artists

I could go but that'll do for now.

PS. People who complain about zombie threads being resurrected.

I could go on...

The man with the split cycling pants cycling in front of me. The sight of the gel pad squeezing out through the split - I’ll never forget that! Shock

CaptainCabinets · 18/06/2018 20:21

Seeing a thick buildup of limescale around toilets/sinks. Makes me want to whack the owner with a bottle of Viakal.

‘Invisible’ bra straps.

Slurpers.

Dirty mirrors.

Dirty fingernails.

People who hold their knife and fork the wrong way round.

Razor burn.

Those HUGE flowery headbands on babies heads, very uncomfortable I would imagine.
People assuming my baby is a boy because she's not dressed head to toe in pink.
People who type THIS. under a post on Facebook (and MN). Has to be in capitals and has to have the full stop.
Furry trimmings attached to the hoods of prams (usually Bugaboos).
People who use the word Hollibobs for Holiday. It has the same number of syllables and starts with the same letter, I don't get it!
People who Hashtag #My World #Loveyoumillions #Loveyoutothemoonandback
Misuse of your/you're, his/he's, to/too etc etc. The English language is really not that difficult.

People who say "I'm sorry but you're wrong".especially if I'm not wrong (and they sure as Hell aren't sorry)

In supermarkets, people who shove their sweaty arm right in front of my face to get something ( I can bite them , yes?) or

I'm waiting for Woman A to pick what she wants from the freezer. I know I want something from the same freezer so I wait just beside her.
Woman B comes up "Can you move/Can I get in there"

No - fuck right off and wait your bloody turn like I am doing . Is your time more precious?

People (patients) who are late .
Patients who are late (but still seen) and the next time , turn up early and knock on my door.

And sit quiet throughout the treatment (when I am encouraging them to talk to me, it's like pulling teeth some days) but suddenly decide to give me their entire medical history and that of the neighbours postmans cat as well.

Trying to take a history "Any surgical history" ?
Instead of "Yes, I had my left hip replaced about 10 years ago, so 2008"
It's "Oh yes, a long time ago"
What did you have done
"Erm, my hip"
Which hip
"Oh , left" while feeling for scar
When was that...?
"Oh a long time....."
Just a rough idea

Or they don't bring up to date information ( BTW , we ask every visit)
"Oh yes, I've got new tablets......don't know the name . I should've brought them.....I've never been asked this"
Yes we do, every bloody time Confused

Hospickal, no, hospital!

Della1 · 18/06/2018 21:47

Men in flip flops (hairy toes anyone?) or loafers.

People writing “should of” when it’s “should have”, incorrect use of your/you’re, their/there/they’re etc

Imustbemad00 · 18/06/2018 23:03

Only got to page 4 but the drawers things is driving me crazy.
Can’t fathom how drawers and draws are said differently.
People saying drors rhymes with wars and drawers with claws is just making it worse because every single one of thosnrhymes to me.
Been saying ‘drors’ ‘draws’ ‘wars’ all sound the bloody same I’m going mad Confused

RoseWhiteTips · 18/06/2018 23:34

My bad.

RoseWhiteTips · 18/06/2018 23:34

Can you give me any advise?

FastWindow · 18/06/2018 23:41

People who complain about something they have wrong with them and don't bloody do anything about it, (such as see a professional, especially when they have private health through a job etc) then complain about the same thing a year or five later. Just go and get seen. Stop bitching.

19lottie82 · 18/06/2018 23:42

Loose / Lose
Bought / Brought

lookoutcoshereicome · 18/06/2018 23:43

Leopard print clothing.
Fluffy slipper shoes.
Incorrect use of brought and bought.
Those massive fucking Jo Jo Bows. THOSE ESPECIALLY.

lookoutcoshereicome · 18/06/2018 23:46

People who hold their knife and fork the wrong way round.

This made me chuckle because I do and I never won't. There's no such thing as the 'wrong way around' it's a social construct for snobs. Grin

stayathomer · 19/06/2018 08:07

People using the word 'pan fried' to make it sound like they did something healthy to their food, actually in general when people pretty up what is a basic way of cooking or food to sound like you're giving your kids something less appetizing than them

stayathomer · 19/06/2018 08:09

procrastination on most fronts

CloudCaptain · 19/06/2018 08:12

You lot need to chillax. Grin

Tallyhooo · 19/06/2018 08:17

Thanks Cloud! That reminds me.....
The words 'chillax', 'obvs', 'totes', 'amazeballs'...……..etc etc

Hermitsunited · 19/06/2018 08:20

Oh no a few people are saying about leggings. I'm pregnant and that's all I seem to wear at the minute Blush

TorviBrightspear · 19/06/2018 08:31

As long as your top goes below your bum, I think you'll be fine 😁
