    Something else - when a radio presenter introduces a guest, and the guest says "Hi, how are you?", which throws the whole item out of kilter

    In fact, what is the point of saying "How are you?" at the start of a conversation? Nobody means it. Lizards don't do it.

      people who can't be bothered taking their shopping trolleys to the proper bay in the super market car park meaning that when someone else wants to park (ie me) theres a trolley (or two or more) occupying a perfectly good car parking space

        Lazy fat barstewards who park in disabled bays at supermarkets (with no badge)
        Airport security staff who chew gum and scratch their bits whilst refering to you as 'mate'.
        People who blatantly chuck litter (infront of their kids FFS)
        People who take the time to drive to the recycling centre and just dump everything in the first bank they come accross.


        and breathe

          other driving related grumps:

          people who use the right turn (or left turn) only lane as a method of queue jumping.

          People who park on double yellows, especially at rush hour

          People who park really crapply near junctions

          Middle lane hogs on the motor way - ok not so bad if they're doing 90 and know how to over take, but the ones who really annoy me are those who will do any speed on the motorway as long as its in the middle lane, they're the ones you see forming huge trains of stupidity and laziness in the middle lane

            And ******* companies who claim 'Your call is important to us' but not important enough to hire enough people to answer the ******* 'phones.
            Or to speak ******* English when they do eventually answer. Bastards.

              I hate those who won't rise to a bait too FWIW

              Not as much as I hate the Inland f****** Revenue though.
              If you find this post offensive, please insert "Chan" before and "tho" after, then it should be OK.

                      I'm the other way around, I used to loathe him and his self aggrandisement, but I gained a grudging respect for him over his school dinner initiative.
