What do you find offensive/annoying?

Here is something else that is annoying. I drive miles through snow and ice this morning, risking life and limb, battling freezing conditions to get to a clients premises to help them sort our a bookkeeping mess created by their previous bookkeeper. Despite the awful conditions I arrive at the agreed time of 0930.

Jenni sneezes and wimps off to stay in bed. :rolleyes:

(just joking Frostie)

Just like the ruddy builder who yesterday decide to excavate his way through a water main causing £6500 worth of damage and managed to cut the whole school water supply off just because he couldn't be bothered to check if there was any services under the ground!!!

Blasted builders :D:D:p

George Galloway. I listen to him of a Friday night on Talk Sport, I hate this moron with a passion.

Unless you totally agree with him he is rude, sarcastic and cuts people off when they are in the middle of speaking. He has now just gone off on a rant about a sports team named "Celtic Crusaders", he takes great offence at the use of the word "Crusade" because of it's associations with the middle ages (FFS), I would happily top this bloke for his statements a few weeks ago reference the Gaza situation when he said that Jihad was the only answer (MUPPET). Oh now he's banging on about abortion and how it's murder....

Does this happen often? Do they ask for all your clothes or individual items?
Nobody has ever approached me and said "I want your underpants, and perhaps one sock".
I have a dull life.

err... for indivivual items...
And it is often
The point is that I have a sister and she is always asking me for that kind of things, and I don't like it... would you like?

Ah, see what you mean.

When at my girlfriends parents house, her sister doesn't even ask her!! She just uses what she wants. Now that!! Is annoying.

Impatient drivers, seems 90% of drivers on the road are in too much of a hurry. I don't drive slow but I'm calm and relaxed and cant understand why people stress themselves out unnecessarily.

O and bankers bonuses at the moment, lets completely f**k things up and hey it wont matter because we'll still get out brucies bonuses, its shocking and something must be done about it.

That is really annoying, and that is what I find extremely offensive!

One thing that's really griping my arse at the minute is when I KNOW what I am searching for on Ebay or a search engine, and it comes back saying "sorry but your results found little blah blah, so instead we changed it to this completely irellevant search instead"

FFS!

Bar Staff

I'm waiting for a beer. They look at me which I take as their version of "what would you like?" but there is someone waiting before me. So I say "He/She was first"

They will roll their eyes a la Kevin and Perry and serve that person. Then ignore me and serve the person who came after me!

Tea/Coffee Drinkers in Pubs

Go to Cafe Nero or Starbucks. Or make a preferential que for people who are drinking alcohol in pubs

Middle Lane Drivers

Take your 900cc car and get in the slow lane before I ram you over there. Don't like it that I'm sat up your backside? Get the hint and moooooooooooove!

My Fiancees time of the month

She is both offensive and annoying but why does she need to take it out on me?

Being told to go green/drink less/what to eat/what I can and can't say (politial correctness)

The list goes on and I don't care about any of the above. Life is too short

Right, here we go..............

I find annoying:

Bad spelling and grammar. I appreciate that when writing something that is not a formal letter, using the Queens English is not necessary, but why do people feel the need to use text speak to write something, or forget where the full stop key is? If you want people to think you're not particularly sharp, then just say so! (You can tell I work in PR, can you not?)

As well as the spelling, it is the misuse of "there, their & they're" and "your & you're". They are totally different words and say different things. For example:

Person A: Your stupid!
Person B: My stupid what?

Please people, as a society, can we introduce communal beatings for people who eat with their mouths open. It is so disgusting it must surely breach human rights laws! My (technically) sister in law and her husband both not only do this, but chew REALLY REALLY LOUDLY!!! Why?????

I get annoyed at slow, over-cautious drivers. I'm not talking about the "it's raining so I'll slow down a tad" people, it is the "WOW, I'm doing 35, that's crazy and I'd better slow down before I kill anyone else on this national speed limit road" people. Having had the misfortune of meeting these people, you would not believe the excuses they have told themselves to convince them that it is they who are right, and we are all nuts. One said "well I'm saving you on petrol, so you should be thanking me". Another said that he always matches his speed to the traffic. I didn't waste my breath trying to convince him they were all doing 30 in a 60 because of him. Also, have you seen some of the people that drive at these speeds??? They're thousands of years old!!

*takes breath*

People who talk over me. If I am talking to someone, then I will talk, then you will talk, then I will reply, then you will reply. If someone talks over me, especially if I am giving advice, then they will only hear half what I was saying and normally go on a rant about something they would not be doing had they shut up and listened to me. I feel that talking over somebody or interrupting them is no different to saying "I think what you're saying is so irrelevant and below me that I shall not waste my time waiting for you to finish to make my extremely important point.

Right. I feel better now.

Dear LostcostPR,

Apropos The Queen's English what is your position on multiple usage of punctuation marks????? I am against this practice!!!!!! EVEN WHEN SHOUTING!!!!!

I agree with you on the banality of "there, their & they're" and "your & you're" being misused, but what of the unintentional humour some misuse gifts into our lives? For instance:

I suppose it's an admiral but misplaced action.
And the anacronym is really good too!!
Your assumption is holy in-accurate.
Extreme thoughts does not show that the person is quite cleaver!
if you have any spasific questions please let me know
direst response marketing triumphs
in the middle of know where


(None of which lives up to the ineffable brilliance of 'Life Reeked with Joy')

Add to that religious groups/door to door sellers when the conversation goes like this.

Picture the scene. It's a Saturday or Sunday morning. Me and Mrs Black and White are still in bed after a night on the tiles. My primary concerns are getting up for a fry up, going back to bed, getting up for a take away, match of the day, back to bed.

KNOCK KNOCK!

I pull my sorry carcass out of bed. Throw on whatever clothes are on the floor, trudge down stairs and answer the door.

"Hello sir, we are the in the area and are..."

And I am them presented with some religious item or a brocheure.

I reply with "let me stop you there. I'm not interested thank you very much". And then....

"But do you realise....."

To which I reply

"I'm really not interested thank you"

Now I have been polite. I have no interest in religion or cleaning products and the like and have told them as much to which I reply.

"What part of I am not interested do you not understand.Stop talking, get off my property and do not come back. The next time you do I will insert, without lubrication, whatever it is you are trying to sell me into the smallest orifice of your body I can find. Now do one"

Seems to do the trick
