3 pet hates
 
I think i'm getting old now as little things just hit a nerve with me lately.
Here are my 3 pet hates.

1) people driving with fog lights on sometimes even in the day and certainly not when it's foggy

2) idiotic double barrelled names. like Mrs Jones-Smith. I work for mail order so see a lot of these go through the system.

3) very illegal personalised number plates. I seem to have an ANPR system built into my head which spots them lol. AN03 EWM in the wrong font incorrectly spaced reads ANDREW M...

Brilliant mate, your not getting old as I couldnt agree more with your pet hates....how bout these ones?

1) People who wear sun glasses in doors, especially in clubs and pubs!
2) Car stickers that say 'Princess on board'
3) People who's voices go up in tone at the end of a line as if they are asking a question every time they speak lol

Putting it all in perspective though...I did actually see a book in Waterstones that was titled '1000 Things that boil my blood' :lol: brilliant

Big G 06-09-2011 01:26 PM

oh also. the amount of people I see wrongly parked is amazing. At Aldi you can put money on people being in the disabled or mother and toddler bays and the normal spaces are metres away!

and at our morrisons people sit in their 4x4's waiting on the double lines outside the store doors when there are hundreds of spaces again metres away. grrr.

Jamie.T 06-09-2011 01:31 PM

Couldnt agree more about people with no children parking in the parent and baby section.

We have a small child and need to open the doors quite wide on the MPV to get her out and end up parking in the normal spaces which are waaaay too small.

If i see someone without a child in these spaces i get quite vocal about it too.lol

c0sie 06-09-2011 01:40 PM

1/ People who drive transit vans/lorries/Land Rovers/Range Rovers/company cars (etc) and feel it is there god given right to give me shit because my car is smaller than theirs.

2/ People who put their kids into these ridiculously messed up pagent thingys (off of America?)

3/ The deaf man who lives in the flat above me watching porn during the day with the volume loud enough that he can hear it...and most of the neighbourhood (true story).

Pops 06-09-2011 02:05 PM

Chrislong 06-09-2011 02:24 PM

Agree with all/most of the above.

1) Child on Board..... yet you pulled out on me and your driving like a retard.

2) Mini Roundabouts. Especially people who give way to every single thing around, and then pull out on the one thing he SHOULD have given way too (and that victim is usually me, as I rarely hesitate if there's a gap).

3) Traffic lights on left turn filter lanes. Asif we are unable to use our friggin' eyes and look for a gap. Making me stop for no good reason is wasting my fuel, and don't get me wrong, im all for safety but this is ridiculous. Maybe the red light should have a sign "If your unable to make a safe judgement, please check light (red = stop), otherwise giveway and go when safe to do so".

The Chef 06-09-2011 07:21 PM

All the more reason to continue :) Its not offensive if the majority laugh with you (apparently) :)

...

4/ People who play with Warhammer *chuckle*

5/ People who bought an iPad2 after owning an iPad1 and genuinely believe that they need whatever updates/upgrades the 2 has over the 1 even though all they do is play Angry Birds, read the news and look at oOple on it.

6/ Thin people in gyms who look at the fat sweaty person on the treadmill with that look of "wow, hes fat, fatty ought to lose some weight and do some exercise"..

Chrislong 07-09-2011 09:36 AM

4) Badly synchronized traffic lights. Your encouraging me to drag race, because otherwise im sat at another red light for the next 5 minutes only 50yds ahead of where I last wasted 5 minutes... therefore im flooring it before it changes.

5) People who sit in right turn filter lanes, waiting for the filter light on the lights. The lights are on green and there is a gap, you don't need the additional green arrow to confirm that gap.... GOOOOOO!

4_cell_racer 07-09-2011 09:41 AM

1) having to walk to the other end of our new tesco to get a trolley for the kids when the parent/child bays are complete opposite end! Yet right opposite the bays we park in, there are tons of normal trollies!

2) someone pulling out of a side street right in front of you then making a right turn at the next street and holding every fecker up!

3) our postie who has not learnt how to close gates, 3 times he's broken ours now

4) people who diss Ansmann :p

c0sie 07-09-2011 09:49 AM

7/ ANYONE who bought the Cher Lloyd -Swagger (bloody) Jagger single and helped it get to number 1.

8/ Anyone who buys this year's X Factor single and helps that get to number 1.

9/ Any newspaper/magazine that continues to publish any form of "news" about Katie Price (closely followed by every other pathetic Z-list botoxed fake-tanned bleach-blonde legs-a-kimbo dipshit) therefore continuing to make her (them) think that the majority of the UK actually care.

15 days without smoking, this thread is proving most theraputic!

c0sie 07-09-2011 10:03 AM

10/ Aled Hayden-Jones off of the Chris Moyles show.

11/ Mushrooms.

12/ The RDS on my car stereo kicking in and scanning for a better frequency just as something life changingly important is about to be said on the radio!

Big G 07-09-2011 11:06 AM

Open to offers ads and when you put in an offer (which you think is resonable) you get told not to be so stupid "mate"

Dombrasky 07-09-2011 11:08 AM

1/ cars pulling out on me all the time (small car syndrome @cosie)

2/ motorway middle lane hogs -when theres nothing in the left lane

4. Bald men infront of you in the barbers
5. Rc drivers that don't move over when being lapped!

c0sie 07-09-2011 12:24 PM

13/ Women who say that giving birth is the most painful experience ever.
I have never asked to be kicked in the nuts a second time, but I see many women with more than one child (and no C-S scar...) :confused:

14/ Dogs that get all funny and agressive when you blow into their faces, yet very often stick their heads out of car windows during long drives :confused:

There must be more, but my mind has drawn a blank...

Chrislong 07-09-2011 02:25 PM

6) Forums..... When someone starts a thread needing a difinitive answer, and somebody posts with "I think....", providing a guess. End result is a thread of posts with no difinitive answer, just adds to confusion. I stay away from all forums axcept this one.

7) Supermarkets, the isles can be 20ft wide yet the woman with 3 kids and no control still manages to own the whole isle!

8) Supermarket Car Parks. I park miles away on my own so not to get car dinged by a careless door opener - I come back and my car is surrounded by cars!! Usually so close im climbing in through the boot!

9) People at work coming to talk about work during my break. Yet during their break if I accidentally decide to get even for you interupting mine, your an abrupt a-hole - so don't be suprised if im more 'off' next time you interupt mine... I have to leave the building during dinners otherwise I get found in canteen. aaaaaah, it'll wait!

ashleyb4 07-09-2011 05:31 PM

1. People who go in the right lane at a roundabout and go straight on...

2. When your driving along in the right hand lane of a duel caridgeway at say 85 and someone pulls out of the left hand lane infront of you to overtake a lorry at 57 mph meaning i have to sit on them. Great way to save fuel that is could of just waited for me to go past then gone or atleast do the speed limit.

3. People who smash up the club.

Ive been on plenty of roundabouts, where you have to be in the righthand lane to go straight on.
