Nice little rap number(!) here all about 'your' vs 'you're'...

"Would you like to buy a bag for 5c?" at the grocery store. Um.....No. I think I'll carry home my $250 in shopping by hand. One tin at a time. :sneaky:

We use old style shopping bags as a few stores here charge for plastic ones, haven't used a plastic bag for a few years now.

Anything that you can't just dispense one of from the packet, nappy wipes, tissues, sandwich bags, whatever. FFS.

People who park there car right up on the corner to a junction so you don't have much room to swing into the road.

Folks who don't indicate, especially when you're at a duel lane, waiting at a light and then find the car in front actually wants to turn left rather than go straight over and now you're to close to get around that they start to use the indicators.
