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.

Grammatically correct use of "myself"

I.E every footballer saying "well I myself thought.."

WHO THE FUCK ELSE WOULD YOU BE, you illiterate knobhead

ILoveDolly · 18/10/2017 21:20

People who suck the joy out of life by being over critical and snobbish about grammar, appearance, pastimes, and basically act as if they hold the rights to taste. Yet it is they, ironically, who are behaving tastelessly by being so very Hyacinth Bucket.

Oh, and men in black leather jackets with ponytailss. That is creepy AF.

stopfuckingshoutingatme · 18/10/2017 21:20

Men who wear those long black leather coats. Often with a pony tail. Creeps me out. I am all for quirky personal style but those men give off an air of dickheadiness to me

I also have one on my commute too ! Where do these coats get bought Grin

People with children so fat they waddle , it's so cruel and sad
People who litter
That London Ali G accent that all the teens have these days

I can't share my others you'll all hate me

Haffiana · 18/10/2017 21:20

People who sell clothes on eBay and don't put the measurements in.

Shockers · 18/10/2017 21:21

Whistlers in the supermarket.

Whistlers anywhere really.

Stop fucking whistling!

Magicmonster · 18/10/2017 21:22

Littering. Especially if it is thrown out of a car window.

Tuna.

AllToadsLeadToHome · 18/10/2017 21:22

Chelsea boots.

RubaDubMum89 · 18/10/2017 21:22

Also, people who use the parent and child parking when said child is blatantly 18. Grrrr.

choli · 18/10/2017 21:23

Calling a sandwich a sarnie. Lipstick lippie.

And any other stupit "abbreviations". Is it that hard just to say the proper word?

whattheactualflump · 18/10/2017 21:25

Huns
Duck face selfies
Men in cycling gear
Man jeggings (especially ones that give a hint of hairy ankle)
Contouring
Theresa May
People who eat with their mouths open
People who are sitting in a line of traffic blocking the road I need to turn into/drive out of, you absolute fucking morons

That's better.

Commuterface · 18/10/2017 21:26

Referring to your children as "my munchkins" or "the minions"
Jesus do people really do this? I’ve lost my faith in humanity.

My mum’s absolute bugbear is pluralising supermarkets and shops. We now, as a standing joke, only refer to Boots as “Bootsis” and M&S as Marksis.

McTufty · 18/10/2017 21:26

People who play loud music on public transport.

AwkwardPaws27 · 18/10/2017 21:26

People who stand in the way of the doors on the bus, then act like I'm the problem for trying to get off said bus. I'm one bad period away from screeching them to get out of the fucking way.

WhatWouldLeslieKnopeDo · 18/10/2017 21:26

People smoking right outside the hospital entrance

The bottom few centimetres of nice apple juice that is all thick and full of bits

Getoutofthatgarden · 18/10/2017 21:27

The ridiculous ripped jeans that are in fashion now(even though I wore them myself many moons ago).

People who sleep outside a shop overnight to buy the latest I-phone/gadget.

bumblingbovine49 · 18/10/2017 21:27

What phonic weirdness is this?

Wars
Claws
Drawers
Draws

They all sound EXACTLY THE SAME to me.

No no no no no to

  • Mashed Potatoes
  • Any sort of soup (yes even "lovely" home made soup)
  • Thick horrible gravy slathered all over a lovely roast dinner- ruins it

Just yuk to all three

Also

  • saying "I could care less".
It is "I couldn't care less". An Americanism I know but it means the opposite of what the person is trying to say.

Always worn with trackie bottoms or leggings and absolutely, completely, fucking useless for sports of any kind.

At least the rubber ones can be used poolside.

No no no no no
HemanOrSheRa · 18/10/2017 21:31

wait, what? These are actual shoes?! well I don't know NoKids. Posters up thread are saying they are worn as shoes. I thought people were just wearing their slippers. I saw one girl wearing them, they were so big it looked like she was wearing her Mum's slippers. I'm confused by it.

Also, I'm sensing a lot of anger on this thread Grin.

Gingernaut · 18/10/2017 21:32

I have no idea how that clicky link failed and yet succeeded....Confused

Nandoshoes · 18/10/2017 21:32

People who slate other people's appearances on the internet...

And me Confused

Velvet/ velour
Ripped jeans
Cold shoulder tops - can I have "whole" clothing please
People saying obviously about things that aren't obvious "we had soup last night, obviously"

HolyShmoly · 18/10/2017 21:33

Fuckers that press their entire body against the pole on the train so you can't hold onto it without basically grabbing their body part. I now aim to jam my knuckles into the small of their back and hope it hurts.

I used to have a long back coat and a ponytail, as a borderline goth teenage girl. The coat was not the best for ventilation, so I also assume that those weird men smell.

People who write 'Ah' instead of I. It's actually extra effort to spell it wrong!!!
'Draws' has found me some decent bargains on gumtree though.

grimeofthecentury · 18/10/2017 21:33

Do people still sleep outside Next before the sale starts or is that a thing of the past

As a child two of my mum's good friends would do this. They'd then buy quite literally thousands of pounds of stuff, enough for all their family for a year. It drove my mum mad, I don't know why, it just really annoyed her. They'd go on about all the good stuff they got but my mum would be like "you slept on the floor in Manchester city centre for that lovely smock your dd is wearing"
