The click clacking of shoes in need of reheeling. Awful, just AWFUL

Dawny65 · 16/09/2020 15:54

A group of teenage girls, lined up for a photo on a night out. Why do they all stand sideways with their knees bent? Some of them look as though they're almost in the pooping position! Makes not a jot of difference to my life, but still annoys me..

ToastyCrumpet · 16/09/2020 15:55

People who feed my cat so he stays out until the small hours.

CatsArePeopleToo · 16/09/2020 15:55

Xmas decorations before December.

@mintyroller I’ve just had a look - I’m cracking up!!!

kerrymucklowe2020 · 16/09/2020 15:55

People who have a coating over their number plate hoping to avoid speed cameras

Dawny65 · 16/09/2020 15:56

And pouting selfies taken in the bathroom... I know I'm getting old & out of touch :)

chocolatesaltyballs22 · 16/09/2020 15:56

Oh, waaaay too many things to be healthy!!!

People who stop outside my house when I'm in the garden to have a loud conversation on their phones

My neighbours kids kicking their football against the garage door repeatedly....THUD...THUD...THUD

The neighbour who leaves his 'vintage' clapped out Porsche with it's very noisy engine running on the driveway for like half an hour at a time

Kids in the gym

Kids in the pub

People who dawdling along with aaaaall the time in the world while you're waiting and giving way to them

Twattish drivers who don't give way when they don't have right of way

@Scoobydoobywho

Adults in Barbie pink cars.
Do you make an exception for children in Barbie pink cars?
Lurchermom · 16/09/2020 15:58

@lakesidefall

People who drive at 40mph in a 60, then carry on at 40mph in the 30!! Except that does technically impact on me because one day I'm going to go to jail for murder.

You would surely be let off.
What is worse is I'm sure these drivers believe that they are good and safe drivers.

I think that is what makes me so mad! They think they are better than those of us driving appropriately!
DappledThings · 16/09/2020 15:59

@timeforanew and @Dawny65 People who say poop instead of poo!

loobyloo1234 · 16/09/2020 16:00

People that say 'holibobs'

chocolatesaltyballs22 · 16/09/2020 16:02

People that say 'holibobs'

And famalam, surely?

UnaCorda · 16/09/2020 16:03

People whose every other word is "like". People who think you want to listen to their choice of music on public transport, etc. People who leave a space before punctuation.
Loud parenting.

timeforanew · 16/09/2020 16:04

@DappledThings point taken :)

Sarah75Lou · 16/09/2020 16:07

@Spermysextowel

Women wearing ill-fitting bras so that it looks like they have 4 breasts.
this made me laugh so much :-)
BindTheWobbinUp · 16/09/2020 16:09

Men with their tops off in hot weather.

Parents who describe their children as feral (as a badge of honour or term of endearment). Nope, they're just badly behaved!

People who talk REALLY LOUDLY (99% of the time it's a man) - performance conversation? No-one's interested in where you've been on holiday.

Blondiney · 16/09/2020 16:10

People that extol the virtues of 'lifting heavy' as a form of exercise. Yes, I'm sure it's wonderful dear but using that phrase makes you sound like a colossal nobber.

UnfinishedSymphon · 16/09/2020 16:10

@Rainbowx

Those ridiculous stupid massive bows on newborn heads really pisses me off
Hopefully they will be banned, a read on here about a baby who suffocate as the band had slipped down over her mouth and nose
Susannahmoody · 16/09/2020 16:10

People with tattoos

People emailing me videos of their kids -

People thinking they reinvented the wheel on current topics, and showing off on social media - recent faves include vegetarian protein, environmentalism, black lives matter (really? You just realised? Fuck wit)

Susannahmoody · 16/09/2020 16:10

Yes, those headbands need banning.

Razzlefrazzle · 16/09/2020 16:11

Why are so many things 'artisan' now? Drives me mad - what is exactly is artesan about olives ffs? Almost as annoying as 'essential' items in Waitrose which are anything but!

Toptotoeunicolour · 16/09/2020 16:11

People who on a country lane scoop their dog's poop into a plastic bag and then hang it in a tree.

leiaskye · 16/09/2020 16:11

@Ohmygoodnessbreathe

Idling. Turn your stinky f%€$ing engine off.
Yes!

There are always a couple of mums doing this whilst I wait for my daughter at her club each week. They’ve been sat there fir 45 minutes with their engine running!!! Why,FFS!
