-Don't pick up their dog's poo
-drop litter
-park like a knob ie half on the pavement so anyone with a pushchair or in a wheelchair has to walk into the road
-are rude to staff in shops or waiting staff

and by arrest, I actually mean lock up for at least 5 years!

Anything else I should put on my Go Straight to Jail list?

People who don't stop at zebra crossings

pictoosh · 04/03/2023 20:46

Bring disposable barbecues to areas of unspoilt natural beauty and leave black scorched rectangles of burnt ground (and often the barbecue) behind after they’ve had their shitty sausages and fucked off home.

TheChosenTwo · 04/03/2023 20:48

People that get on my nerves. Basically everyone at the moment 😂

quokka5 · 04/03/2023 20:49

Tailgaters.

ThreeblackCats · 04/03/2023 20:50

People who have the volume up on their phones in pubs. I don’t want to hear the tv show you’re watching or the sound effects from your game!

Diplidocus4 · 04/03/2023 20:52

People that don't indicate

WeepingSomnambulist · 04/03/2023 20:53

People who say/type loose instead of lose.
People who say, "Myself and X went out to..." or "return it to myself." It's I and me, not myself. It is almost never myself!

Absolutely bloody morons. Makes me irrationally angry.

GlassBunion · 04/03/2023 21:02

People who allow their primary aged children to scream ( yes scream) all night and early morning in their garden and allow them to keep on jumping into their 'chavvy sex pond.'

And yes, they scream... they really scream.

Dear God... the screaming.....!!!!

DoubleShotEspresso · 04/03/2023 21:03

People who decide to "just pop by" without calling first 🤬

The person who ever came up with LTN schemes, the single most divisive thing to happen in communities

PonyPatter44 · 04/03/2023 21:05

People who pull in to the side of the road as if they are parking, but then drive along the kerb and then try and pull out again (usually without indicating). Never mind 5 years in prison, I would bring back hanging for those people!

People that don't indicate

Or people that indicate left on a roundabout and don't take the exit, causing you to pull out and nearly get hit. I nearly had a bad accident the other day because of this. Really shook me up.

gettingolderandgrumpier · 04/03/2023 21:09

Well…..
people that stay in the middle lane just move to the left on the motorway .
today 3 people walking together on a path I was walking with my daughter and instead of moving to the side letting us pass they continued walking in a 3 and expected me to fly over them I mean where would you like me to go ?
people that have phone calls on public transport just fuck off .

scoobycute · 04/03/2023 21:12

People that dither over contents on the shelves of supermarkets

XDownwiththissortofthingX · 04/03/2023 21:13

Enormous families who block aisles in the supermarket and turn shopping into even more of a soul-destroying experience than it is already. Not sure why it takes mum, dad, two near-adult kids and half-a-dozen sundry other sprogs just to buy groceries.

What is wrong with LTN schemes?

Calistan · 04/03/2023 21:14

The little cunts who throw stones and eggs at my windows because they once went to school with my child, who has the temerity to be homosexual and not a violent moron. I love living here.

Someo · 04/03/2023 21:15

People who pull out in front of you and then crawl along wayyy below the speed limit when it was clear after you anyway.

Why?

Palomabalom · 04/03/2023 21:16

People that browse in shops or drink leisurely In cafes whilst their offspring cause merry hell running up screaming and down touching everything and being a general nuisance and health and safety hazard. Parents oblivious and smile indulgently. Do they really think it’s cute? Go straight to jail!!

Fimofriend · 04/03/2023 21:16

People who victim blame rape victims.
People who insist it is more important to be kind to the perv than to the women who find his presence in what used to be a safe area unsettling.

DorisFlies · 04/03/2023 21:17

Let their children stand in supermarket trolleys

Gensola · 04/03/2023 21:17

People who bring toddlers and babies into nice restaurants and let them have tantrums/scream and wail, ruining my only free time all week because they’re too selfish to parent their children/take them outside.

FormerlySpeckledyHen · 04/03/2023 21:18

People who drive in the middle lane on motorways when the inside lane is clear.
People who write alot or allot and ect ect.

selfishjeanss · 04/03/2023 21:18

people who spit in the street.. gives me the rage every time

mathanxiety · 04/03/2023 21:25

Smoke or do drugs or leave food on the train.
