Letting a car out, in front of you, and no nod, thanks or acceptance of gratitude !

That annoys the crap out of me.

Plus, when your reversing out of car park, tight spot, and someones waiting to take your space, they either leave you no room to manouvre, out or indeed turn without bumping their car... then as you sit there exasperated, they finally whince and reverse back 4 inches !

LOL

When that happened to me last week, I stopped the car, got out and went back to the shopping centre for a coffee - I thought that'll teach you to sit waiting for my spot

You book a pub for a BE meet up that has an indoor play area for the kids and the venue cancel the availability of the play area because of possible H&S child care/liability.

There are far too many things that piss me off to list them here. Although I guess the top 3 would have to be...

Family who whine and moan that they'll miss you terribly when you move away; "don't go! Stay here and live close to us so we can see each other all the time" when in reality they couldn't be bothered to see you for yonks before you told them you were going then can't be bothered to stay in touch. Not even a friggin Christmas card FFS!

The overwhelming glut of Simpsons on TV. It's a good program, but come on! Does it need to be available for hours on end every day?

Hormonal teenagers. To be specific, my hormonal teenagers.

When my mate was over here it really got up his nose that people would sit right behind him waiting for a space, so we would get in the car and then sit in the car for a while, just chatting, not moving at all

When there are only 2 or 3 checkouts open at the supermarket and long queues - you have waited and are almost next in line as the person in front of you begins to put their stuff on the belt, then staff come and open another till or 2 and all the people who have just joined the backs of the existing queues rush to the one that is opening :curse:
Most staff ask the person next in line to follow them to the new till next to you, but some don't and it seems some people have no regards to the fact that the people in front of them have been waiting much longer - simple queueing manners I would have thought, to allow those who have been in the queue longest to go through.

Now THAT kind of behaviour gets on my breasts! If you're done shopping you're done shopping. Relinquish the space, already! Grrrrr

insert: not really mad at you emoticon
