Badly behaved kids being described as vibrant and independent by their doting shit parents. Little girls in bikinis. Nose piercings that look like bogies glinting in the light Black piercings beneath the bottom lip that looks like a giant blackhead. Fully grown adults on skateboards
I know someone who describes her child from hell as 'sassy'

People putting goldfish in tiny tanks with tiny sponge filters and untreated tap water then getting all offended when you point out the cruelty of it

BluFox · 16/09/2020 13:21

People using the wrong then/than, it’s not even a homophone.

Auridon4life · 16/09/2020 13:21

People in really ugly clothes and really bad hair

My neighbours who dont open their curtains the full way. Only open them so there is a gap of about a ft in the middle. Drives me insane. Open them fully, or dont open them at all ffs.

No clue why it annoys me so much Grin

Oh and walking past houses who have "the big light" on and the curtains open! Angry

Liltzero · 16/09/2020 13:21

People (99% men) who spit on the pavement, runners and cyclists who spit / empty their noses by a quick blow with one nostril closed in the middle of a race.

Filthy habit at the best of times, completely unacceptable even at a distance from me, in a pandemic.

AlternativePerspective · 16/09/2020 13:22

People who find out the sex of their baby before it’s born
People who Pearce their babies’ ears
People who park on the pavement (although hopefully that’s going to become illegal soon
People who go on and on about weaning and how no child should ever be weaned before six months despite the fact that even paediatricians advise it in some cases.
People who give their children unusual or foreign names because they want to be different and think that it’s cool and shows them as being oh so accepting of everyone by giving their child a name from a different country.
People who live on ready meals and feed their babies nothing but processed food in jars.

loobyloo1234 · 16/09/2020 13:22

Oh I have another - cyclists who don't ride single file on country lanes just so they can have a chat with their mates next to them - rageeeeeee inducing

hollieberrie · 16/09/2020 13:23

Work emails asking everyone to please remember to "use my correct pronouns"

Hahaha88 · 16/09/2020 13:23

@sapnupuas

My neighbours closing their curtains randomly for an hour or so during the day (usually about now). Why? Why are they doing this?
Because no one needs to see my workout
Frazzled13 · 16/09/2020 13:23

“Unique” spellings of names.

chimpandzee · 16/09/2020 13:23

TwentyViginti · 16/09/2020 13:24

Winged things that can fly in through an open window but not out again.

Oh I know! the buzzy little twats. No, I won't kill you. I just want you out.

Other people's relationships. Why are you with that idiot he doesn't even have a job!

islockdownoveryet · 16/09/2020 13:30

People who can't park in between the lines in fact people that park so close to their destination that they have practically driven into the shop / house etc and sometimes badly parked too .
Covid moaners I call them people saying I came out of the shop and a person was walking past without a mask and I kept mine on Hmmoh fuck off .

Jenstar123 · 16/09/2020 13:31

Siblings dressed like twins.

TheRattleBag · 16/09/2020 13:31

Pricing which doesn't use 2 decimal places.

£8 I can cope with as it's a whole pound. But £8.5 instead of £8.50 makes me want to scream!

Hipster cafés/pubs who serve things on planks, and have blackboard menus, this means you.

Maybe I should start carrying my own chalk?

AngryPrincess · 16/09/2020 13:34

Tourists that come to your town then walk along the middle of the road, when there is a pavement, two abreast, with three dogs, so you can’t get past on your bike.
