This used to infuriate me. After being nearly hit 3 times at the same bend that has a t junction coming on to it, I, too, now indicate that I'm going to continue on my way rather than leave the road.

10 yards from this bend/junction scenario is a roundabout. What makes me grumpy is that apparently some drivers have no understanding that if you are indicating right, IT MEANS YOU ARE GOING PAST THEIR FLIPPING ENTRY POINT AND THUS THEY CAN'T ENTER THE FLIPPING ROUNDABOUT UNTIL I'VE FLIPPING GONE PAST.

Oh, and taxi drivers and ute drivers who insist on doing a u-turn outside the railway station, rather than negotiate the bend/junction and roundabout above.

In fact, if we could just remove that 30 yard stretch of road, my life would be far less grumpy.

(all distances are completely made up, I have no idea how far 10 or 30 yards are, but they're all really close to each other)

People who use "like" 3 times in every sentence.
Sticky labels (on newly bought electrical goods) which can't be peeled-off.
Australian/American/Israeli politics.
Sharp carousel microwaves that tend to die the minute the warranty expires.

Commuting during school holidays makes me grumpy.
Parents who let their feral little brats treat public transit like a playground. Surely they don't encourage them to be loud and run rampant at home.
People who have no spatial awareness and congregate at the bottom or top of escalators making it impossible for others to get on or off.

I know, right?

Plus people who say "I know, right?"

And, closer to home:

Windows Ten

Passwords! Especially totally innocuous websites that ask for a password, then tell you again and again that it doesn't meet their format(but won't say what that is) or present a Captcha but won't accept your - correct - interpretation of it.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
.

I'll extend this by adding in websites that insist on a username and password for rudimentary stuff like getting an insurance or forex quote...

I like Windows 10 and I will not be going back, except I have one complaint, I still can't get Cortana to work. Its suppose to work in Oz but nothing. The Indian boys can't get it to work either. The Microsoft forums can't get it to work. I think I've been technically defeated.

Lefty Loonies and Fluffy Bunnies.

Thanks for taking the trouble to inform me, Garry. Now I know, right? [That's for renth] And now that I do know, I don't feel grumpy any more. Super!

People who write "Super!"

On an isolated bend (no junction), agreed, but there are a small number of quirky junctions where the "straight through" road is not the "main road", and so under very limited circmstances, indicating a turn can help other roadusers understand your intentions.

I do this myself occasionally as I habitually drive faster through turns than most other drivers - I drive only manual cars, which are RWD or with "sporty" suspension, and so I feel safer indicating a turn in case others interpret my speed as an indication that I am going straight forward.

Wow, super...

If people who helped shape my younger years could stop dying I'd be less grumpy.

Oooh - You've touched on another one there - People who say/claim "I can only drive automatic cars"

Why does that make you grumpy? If they've only learnt in an auto then they're correct. Unless you think everyone should learn in a manual,in which case I agree!
