Websites that get redesigned for wide screen monitors when I still have a fairly square one.

It's really annoying when the log-in/log-out button is off the screen.

But if I buy a new monitor, it would have to be wireless, which would mean I would want a wireless keyboard and mouse, then my old computer wouldn't support these and my internet would be too slow, so I would have to upgrade my service... hell I might as well buy a Mac Book or some expensive system because if I'm upgrading - hell I might as well...

All this because a web designer made a home page for wide screen monitors. :p

I was watching Meet the Fockers the other day and Gaylord Fockers alleged son was called Jorge, pronounced 'Hor-Hay'

That's not right.

Málaga have signed a player called Juan Carlos but he is known as Juanka. It will be a titter for the ex pat supporters. :)

In this vein football commentators, yes it could just be their very existence but in this case those who decide to pick on odd individual foreign players and try and pronounce their names 'properly' see above and Santi Cathorla. For instance I have no idea if Luka Mordric's surname should be pronounced 'Mouurdrch'. Perhaps it should. IF they want to do that then they should make sure they get everyone's name correct.

Oh and Glen Hoddle - WTF is counter acting?

The worst is Hulk. It was just a nickname given to him and now he's got it on the back of his shirt. If my name was Givanildo Vieira de Sousa, I'd definitely be wearing that with pride.

Sending and applying for jobs to be rang back by a recruitment consultant weeks later trying to convince you to take a job you have not applied for, is lees than the salary you are on now and have no interest in.

When you're playing online poker, raise preflop with pocket sixes, someone calls and the board ends up being 3-A-7-6-J, three sixes, surely you have the best hand? But no, this bonehead called my preflop raise with f*cking 4-5 offsuit, and wins with his absurd 3-7 straight.

A bit specific, but incredibly aggravating nonetheless.
