Yeah, the cover story was Jane Mangel, but Bouncer terrorised that family with his sexual demands.

The rite of passage that every pregnant woman in London must wear one of those buttons which say 'baby on board' within the underground logo.

Bit harsh. If people weren't such inconsiderate rude sh1t heads on the tube they wouldn't have to. It's not a rite of passage but it's probably a help if they get to sit down. Why people wouldn't want to be a help is beyond me.

The word "tekkers". Don't know where the **** it came from, what the **** it means, but it annoys the crap out of me. Must be something to do with Chelsea.

Soccer AM

Shit way of saying 'technique' or 'technical ability'. :)

Took a very rare trip to Stansted in the middle of the night - cheeky feckers charge you to drop someone off at the terminal. :grrr:

And there was me wondering which DVD to watch with my old Mum this evening.

Ironically, Diane Keen later went on to star in Rings on their Fingers

Today, mostly annoyed by sensationalist and deeply irreponsible reporting.

Example; bus strike armageddon all over the news despite the fact that tonnes of busses are operating normally.

Result; civil panic, every bugger in their car and complete gridlock on the road.

:veryangry

its not a rite of passage, its a neccessity so that wankers don't shove into them in rush hour. If I had the choice between the safety of my unborn child and some suit on the tube's newpaper reading space, I'm pretty sure I know which one I'd go for.

This. Completely this. Annoys the crap out of me. A lot of clubs do it these days before the match too.

The other thing is the Army guys before an international match at Wembley. Ok unveiling the flag is cool, but parading it round the pitch? Seriously?

Stevie G's birthday

Anthem Jackets. It's a tracksuit top. Shut up.

Surfer / Bill & Ted / Ninja Turtles wannabe...;)

Brendan Rodgers' goal celebration. Typically smug.

Don't you know "it's their year!".

Bloody SSN this morning going on about how he's on course for a special birthday on cup final day. Piss off.

Correct.:D

Remind me.......when is it?

It's every year.

Endless TV ads for the show Fortitude

National Geographic Channel that show the same trailers for programmes EVERY bloody ad break which is every 10 minutes.

Co-op radio. I'm sorry but when I nip out at 8a.m. to buy some milk the last thing I want is to be followed round the shop by an overtly cheerful radio presenter who is so bad he can only get work on a shop's radio station playing his selection of white trash pop music

We used to say Poly.
HTH

People not knowing/using the correct form of 'to' 'too' and 'two'.

Also add all 'there' 'they're' and 'their's' to that list!

People using 'an' instead of 'and'.

People using 'then' instead of 'than'.

Many more I should think too!


Learn basic English words you fools!

Whilst we're on the subject of University, I've lost count of the number of older people who insist on calling it college! Not sure if they know the difference or not but college is where Americans/school leavers go to get mostly vocational qualifications, compared to degrees etc from University!

Palace box office! Been 1st in line for last 50 minutes!

Add to that people who use "a" in front of a word beginning with a vowel. It's AN umbrella, not A umbrella.

Waiters that pour wine into your glass during your meal .

A few universities are split into colleges, iirc Oxford, Cambridge, Durham and probably others

Yeah...that bugs me too. It interrupts conversation and you can feel under pressure to drink faster.

I'm a slow wine drinker and take my time to get thru a glass or two.

It strikes me as an old school posh custom.

I'd prefer prompt delivery of our first bottle and then, when we're nearing the end of that, it's fine for the waiter to ask if we'd like another. But I don't want my glass topped up by them in between.

Indian restaurants in Australia where the cook is actually Indian and cooks Indian food because I reeealllly miss Indian Restaurants that are really Bangladeshi like in the UK....:( Oh and those delicious Turkish restaurants over here who REFUSE to serve doner kebab meat in pitta bread and, instead, roll it up in freshly baked delicious home made Pide!:(....oh and Baps...i hate that word:veryangry

Cambridge is the university. There is no designated place for cambridge university it is just made up of colleges.

Also in Ireland. All the universities are called colleges. Trinity, UCD, etc.

It's also pretty irresponsible, you might be driving and only want a very small glass.

Meh - it's not exactly hard to say no thank you to a waiter.

And good ones will of course remember.

Shooting at an open goal with that one.

My particular variation is why the club have to charge 10p a minute and more from mobiles just for the priviledge to buy a ticket from them or just ask them a question.

Good ones, yes.

In a restaurant last year, I had to repeatedly say 'no thank you, I'm driving' when they kept trying to top up my glass. It certainly did get annoying (as per the thread's title).

That is so annoying.:veryangry
They don't bring small chunks of my steak out for me every 48 seconds.
Get off my ******* wine.

Similar, but what really winds me up is when the sommelier goes through the routine of asking you to taste the wine and then, if you subsequently request a second bottle of the same wine, just rocks up with the second bottle and proceeds to top up people's glasses on top of the existing wine.

Is a second bottle never corked or has suffered form poor storage then? :grrr:

Say they top you up if you are in the toilet or outside haveing a smoke?

A honest mistake to be fair

People who slow down to a crawl or even STOP to go through width restrictions:veryangry

People.

I don't think I have ever had a glass of wine topped up in my absence.

3 hr 45 m train journeys on an old rattler from Cardiff to nottm with a raging hangover. Not buffet car or at seat service. Shocking

#realworld issues

Unacceptable in a micra or fiesta I agree, but surely acceptable in a transit when you've only got about 2 inches each side.

Solid Dock in Yosemite.

Had this happen to me where a waiter had already topped up 3 glasses by the time I'd tasted it and it was corked. Had a long conversation about losing wine as a result of his failure to do the job properly. Wasn't a cheap restaurant either.

So many waiters and diners think that you are offered to taste the wine first to see if you like it. "Mmm that's very nice thanks".

Motivational posters being put around the workplace, such as "You miss 100% of shots you don't take" - Jesus

The only motivational quote I want is that Clinton Morrison one about not making excuses

The Real Housewives of xyz. Brain dead dog shit for idiots.

Scratch that.

ITV.

Pretentious use of foreign/Latin phrases in italics when there are perfectly adequate English equivalents by pompous 'oooh, look at how ******* intellectual I am' arseholes.

Not if they just pick the bottle up and pour it without asking , Which happened to me on Friday .

It's not exactly hard to take the bottle off him and smash it over his bastard head.

Eddie Redmayne

Agreed! Annoying, effeminate, foppish dullard. I'm in the film industry and hope to f*ck he never gets near one of my scripts.

I've never heard of him.... Off to google him now

"I’d been ill and hadn’t trained for a week and I’d been out of the team for three weeks before that, so I wasn’t sharp. I got cramp before half-time as well. But I’m not one to make excuses."

:p

Snow.

Me neither. Googled him still no idea. But I hate him because Palace fans hate him and because of his bastard face.

Won BAFTA for best actor yesterday, as Stephen Hawking.

Websites like this that autoplay a video complete with sound. Pisses me right off http://www.90min.com/posts/1846448-j...e=facebook.com

People who walk slowly in front of you and then proceed to waiver across the pavement so you can't get round. Dopey or what.

People who pick up your partners plate if you've not finished.
So rude.
Wait till we are both finished before even attempting it.

Jesus said that ? Well fook my old grannies boots

Waiters that give you your main with your starter, just so they can get rid of you quicker.

...Really!

Also compulsory tipping.
I hate paying 12.5% for someone who writes down two meals
Brings them out
Then you have to ask for the Bill

Yep

Just a good excuse for the restaurant to pay them **** all. No one tips me for searching them or their bags.

Jesus was a well known blue sky thinker during his recruitment days

Chelsea fans for some reason trolling on another teams forum and crying off back with new usernames, sick id say

20% at the bar for drinks in my local bar. Not paying

No need to go any further with the research Chocky - the most punchable face in showbiz. From the Tim nice but Dim grin to his enormous forehead, I'd never get tired of tw@tting the pr1ck.

Has anyone ever in the history of the world been motivated by these posters?

My bosses new one is, "Strive for perfection and you will achieve exceptional along the way".

I think he stole it from Vince Lombardi to be honest.

cpfc.org becoming a Chelsea BBS.

This

Drivers who don't acknowledge with a wave or similar when you have given way.

You should mention it to them then. JAT.

I was.

Having to look at bullshit pictures of skydivers and rain forests all over the walls gave me the motivation to study evenings and weekends to get a qualification that allowed me to get out of the dead end office admin environment, and become self employed

Funnily, when I set up my office, my father in law brought me the skydiving picture and was a bit put out when it wasn't hung on my wall!

What restaurants are they? Obviously shit ones where they will clear the table when one person hasn't finished. Badly trained tossers.

Bad manners .

Tourists in Spain who drive hire cars, and just because they sit on the other side and drive on the other side of the road gives them the right to drive in any way they like ignoring the basically the same Highway Code that they have in the UK, like suddenly stopping in the middle of the road oblivious to cars behind them because they're a bit lost or are trying to find somewhere. F**king idiots. Happens all the time, I just went round a roundabout behind a car that exited the same way I was going, as soon as he got off the roundabout he just stopped leaving me to brake and stop still on the roundabout with cars behind me. Wanker face.

Then again most Spanish drive like that anyway so when in Rome/Spain....drive like a cock.

Actually he must have some talent then if he can do his voice. Although we can all do the face.

People who play bat and ball on the beach with those crappy cheap plastic bats and balls...
Tap, tap, tap, tap, tap tap, tap, tap, tap...........tap, tap, tap, tap, tap.....SHUT UP!!!!!

Yes bloody right! But usually its people near me saying that about me except farts not taps.

I prefer de motivational posters ...

He needs a f*cking good kicking.

Davina McCall.

Cannot understand why presenters of traffic reports or weather (among other things) feel the need to have music playing while they are talking.

Another moan, about breakfast presenter on 5 live Rachel?? who lets her voice fade away--so annoying ,she does not seem able to breath properly.

People who stop to look for something on a supermarket shelf and park their trolleys diagonally across the aisle. Wankers.

All breakfast show radio presenters. Collectively need an urgent meeting with a flame thrower.

Civil Enforcement Officers refusal to interact.

Print this one out and put it on his desk.

How, when finding some absolutely classic music video on Youtube, they advertise the latest One Direction/Rhianna/Coldplay release before you can watch it. Doesn't strike me as terribly smart technology/user profiling.

Olives. They're sh*t. Might just as well put random clods of earth in your mouth.

Red trousers.

on a similar note, when you are looking at something on the shelves of a supermarket, and someone comes along to look at the same shelves and goes and stands right in front of you. GTFO

People who ask you a question then immediately ask someone else the same question to confirm your answer .
