For me it’s people who drape their hair over the back of their plane seat. Takes obliviousness to other people to a whole new level.

The people who ONLY go to the pub on Christmas eve and expect to be served before all the locals who drink there every week.

This confuses me. So someone goes to a pub and is standing at the bar waiting to be served but should not be allowed to take their turn because people who have visited that pub more often should get served first and they should also magically know who these people are? Ok.

People who approach ticket barriers at train/tube stations without getting their ticket/payment card ready before they get there.

tailgaters, brexiteers and people who don’t understand public health (special mention to the idiot who sent their sick kid into school last week - which is why my kid is poorly now!).

people who walk their dogs with no recall off lead

people who are mean to hospitality and healthcare staff

people parking their vans in blue badge spaces (with no badge)

The Muppets at my local council who have just closed the town centre to through traffic whilst having three lots of simultaneous roadworks going on around the outside, gridlocking the whole thing.

If I was this rubbish at my job I would resign immediately.

People who leave their clothes NEXT TO or ON TOP OF the hamper and not actually IN the hamper.

Ditto those who leave a wet towel in a heap and don’t spread it out to dry.

Anyone who turns up at an unticketed event and tries to save an entire row of seats when their party hasn’t arrived.

People who don’t pick their dog’s poo up, especially in a city street.

Women who call their DH “hubby” or “hubs”.

Men who soak themselves in Drakker Noir or Lynx so you have to enter a toxic cloud just to pass them in the pub.

Parents who allow their children to interrupt adult conversation.
Parents who allow their children to make excessive noise at a restaurant table.
People who are cruel or neglectful to animals.
Those who post on Mumsnet asking for advice, but turn down every suggestion given.
People on dating (or similar) sites who don't read others profiles before messaging them.
Car drivers who beep at pedestrians to get their attention/say hello etc and give said pedestrian (me) a heart attack.
People who walk away while you are talking to them. Just rude!
Noisy eaters.
People who moan on social media every single day about something different. Then when pulled on it, blame their BPD
Friends who invite themselves over, and then overstay their welcome.
My local radio presenter who says 'done' when it should be 'did', 'seen' when it should be 'saw' plus various other grammatical mistakes every day.

Menopausal miserable mare here, just incase you can't tell.

KangarooKenny · 29/11/2022 06:29

People who walk out at pedestrian crossings without waiting for traffic to stop.

mickandrorty · 29/11/2022 06:34

People who reach over you to get to a shelf in the supermarket! fuck off and wait your turn!

Hooverphobe · 29/11/2022 06:39

People who quote an entire song’s lyrics on a message board.

Fuck off. It’s not that meaningful. If you can’t get your point across in your own words STFU.

HandbagsnGladrags · 29/11/2022 06:54

The woman who goes to my gym who gets in the pool after me and then decides to swim in the exact same lane as me even when the entire rest of the pool is fucking empty.

Allschoolsareartschools · 29/11/2022 07:03

Anyone who watches or listens to anything on public transport without headphones.
I mean who the actual fuck do you think you are making everyone else listen to your (shit & even if it's not I don't want to listen to it) choice of music or TV.
I cannot imagine being so thick, ignorant & self absorbed.

WalkingOnTheCracks · 29/11/2022 07:04

People who use cliches, like ‘a special place in hell’.

Betahydroxybutyrate · 29/11/2022 07:06

If I sprayed air freshener in YOUR face you wouldn’t like it so stop blowing vile smoke in mine.

Fuuuuuckit · 29/11/2022 07:06

Anyone who says 'oh I had that, I fixed it by doing xyz in a few weeks' when I tell them about my two, ongoing chronic pain conditions that I've needed 3 surgeries on (so far). Fuck off.

People who stop dead just after walking through doors, barriers or the top of escalators

Social media influencers or anyone that refers to themselves as a 'content creator'

uncomplicatedish · 29/11/2022 07:17

People who refuse to reverse in a lane when their passing place is just behind them and mine is round a corner 100m back.

People who refuse to reverse on road with parked cars when it's my right of way e.g. I've committed and am 2/3 down and they think it's fine to carry on even though they see me coming and expect me to reverse. No.

People who is stead of waiting for me to reverse by the parked cards mount pavement instead and almost knock over pedestrians.

RambamThankyouMam · 29/11/2022 07:19

Women who sell other women and children down the river by backing ridiculous gender ideologies.

CatkinToadflax · 29/11/2022 07:22

People who end a written statement with a question mark. If it’s not a question it doesn’t need a question mark.

The person who stood so close to me in a queue recently, and kept coming too every time I tried to move away from them, that the lady behind the counter put the cold drinks on their tray through as my order.

My bullies at university. Husband and wife now. Husband was a member of the student welfare team so he managed to cover up his vicious bullying remarkably easily. C, the pair of them.
