Buses: And fat people on them. I once saw a massive two-seater jabba demolish 2 cakes, 3 packets of walkers and a bottle of Iron Brew on a 20-minute journey. I was both disgusted and amazed by her carefree attitude, but annoyed she only had to pay for one ticket.

Town During The Day: 3,000 pensioners leisurely trudge around at 3,000th of a Mile Per Hour, walking into everyone - and everything - whilst they oaf around with 2 items of shopping. Also, parents who let their little shits run around in amongst 3,000 potential baby snatchers. Twice today I felt like booting a kid through a shop window because it ran in front of me; do everyone a favour mate, keep your kid on a leash.

9 AM classes: self-explanatory. I make less than 50% of them. Attendance is so shabby and the Lecturer cant' even be arsed teaching anything interesting so it's more fascinating watching everyone else fall back to sleep as the hour progresses.

Spamming: of all sorts. "I'm a nympho in your local area and my hubby is away all week" Sent to my mobile. WTFM8!?!? Not to mention the 10 e-mails i get a week about getting 'bigger, natural breasts', or natural hair removal (as if i need help with those) and hormone reduction and so forth. I'm starting to think some shit-cock is singing me up for all this crap.

Beggars: give you money? HAH! They should be re-named comedians. Who in their right mind gives money / food / anything to a guy who can afford varying luxuries from a guitar to Nike shoes? Such items OBVIOUSLY show that you've not got much money. If they had an ounce of wit about them they'd learn to something interesting like the M&S Juggler guy did. He made a killing every day and people didn't hate him with every bone in their body.

Peoplewho think that getting their mates to come up to me one at a time every two minutes to ask for the same song over and over again is the correct way to request songs in a nightclub. Newsflash; I'm not stupid. It's only going to disincline me from playing that song even more.

Buses that go far too close to the kerb and come with in a fagpaper of knocking my head off with their wingmirrors.

Cokeheads, in general. I have no tolerance for those who think that Bolivian marching-powder is a substitute for having a personality.

Income tax returns

Ian Brown

(the last two go without saying...)

People in Supermarkets who not only take up the space where you are wanting to simply put something into your trolley but they also block the area with their trolley.

Folk who are so absorbed with shopping that they lose the ability to look where they are going.

Certain people in this music scene who think that music revolves around haircuts, who you know and the latest fads. Pfftt.

Racists- Fuck off and die.

Homophobes- as above.

"Tax doesn't have to be Taxing"- Stupid/Patronising and damn right wrong. Tax is taxing.

People on buses who sit on the aisle seat when the window seat is empty as well and still don't move when people start standing on the bus. Also applys to those who sit in the window seat and put a bag on the aisle seat and don't move it when it gets busy.

Rudeness in general bugs me. It doesn't cost anything to say please, thank you and give a smile.

Other Drivers who don't signal their thanks when you pull in to let them pass, when driving on a single lane road. Rude as fuck, all it takes is a nod or raise of the hands to say thanks!!

Old Firm fans - do i need to explain?

- As Dave said, rudeness in general.
