-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 moan about LTNs, although near me it's only the absolute richest and/or laziest still going on about it. Everyone else has bought a bike/scooter/bus pass/comfier shoes Smile

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.

You win. I would batter the fuckers.

I'm really pleased that many of you have said litter louts. I hate them so, so much.

GayforMoleman · 05/03/2023 00:23

People who dodge child maintenance. Abandon their kid and not a fucking thing can be done to make them pay.

Truly abysmal, I agree.

Think grey joggers are acceptable and attractive outerwear.

The cunt in number 22 for being a cunt.

Guilty 😔 Not grey per se but white joggers, omg!!!!

Totally. I have no patience

People who say "give us a kiss luv" but it's only 1 person asking for that kiss

Fifthtimelucky · 05/03/2023 08:48

Glad to see that (so far) I'm guilty of only two of these, both of which are supermarket related.

  1. dithering over contents in supermarkets. Though obviously I don't call it dithering. I call it checking/comparing.

  2. standing and chatting to people in supermarkets. In my defence, I never go at busy times such as weekends or evenings.

What is wrong with LTN schemes?

What is a LTN scheme please

Paperexcelandpens · 05/03/2023 09:01

People that shout and run down hotel corridors late at night waking up all the other residents until the early hours. Who on earth thinks this is OK to do? Just baffles me.

Low Traffic Neighbourhood. Apparently some residential areas in London and Oxford (maybe elsewhere too) have restrictions to stop non residents driving through. It's to stop rat runs.

LakieLady · 05/03/2023 09:23

I'm turning into an intolerant old bat, I agree with almost every one of these.

I'd like to add people who have outside lights that are so bright the whole street is lit up like a floodlit soccer pitch every time anything moves.

Whatthediddlyfeck · 05/03/2023 09:24

People who scuff their heels as they walk.

LIFT YOUR BLOODY FEET!!

EyesOnThePies · 05/03/2023 09:24

Women who do that performative hair swish. A little toss of the head, gather up their hair and swish it backwards. I have been hit in the face twice by their stupid fucking hair when on public transport. They should have their heads shorn too.

Politicians who enable this! If they wanted to enforce it they could, like with tax...

I'd love a taser to zap people
