Bad grammar in general, especially in official documentation.

Chronic overuse of the word "mate", especially to people who aren't actually your mates. For example, when I was out on Wednesday, I heard the beginnings of a fight, where the basic essence of one guy's chat was "I'm going to fucking batter the living shit out of you, mate."

The irrelevant details thing really fucking irks me as well actually. Especially when they're telling you a story with an ending that directly concerns you, so you're listening intently waiting for the outcome and have to wait for them to figure out whether it was half four or quarter to five that they ran into the person in town (or was it at the bus station?).

EDIT: Oh, and the stigma some people attach to drinking in the afternoon. Sometimes it's just nice.

I piss myself off with the fine minute (irrelevant) details of a story. By the time I finish telling what should have been a brilliant, fun-filled, witty story, you can see the tumbleweed blowing past..........

I'm pretty sure someone else will have the pet hate of people who pick up on grammatical and/or spelling errors.

etc etc.

You're just lucky I'm so placid and kind. Unlike the rest of the board, their all cunts.

Hahaha - I really hope you're kidding

Yes well done Phil and Exposure. I would have despaired if someone didn't spot it.

I have to agree with you there.

British people who say 'ass'. Don't do it.
People who can't grasp the technique of eating with their mouths closed, in public.
Infact, people who lack any kind of tact, empathy or conscience in general. I have no idea how some people can be so completely self involved, ignorrant and rude and not realise it. Alot of that is pointed at the fucking botters who play their pisspoor music through their phones on the bus. I don't know how they can be so openly disruptive and obnoxious without any kind of social conscience kicking in. The same goes for people who talk as loud as possible whilst on their phones on the bus for a prolonged period, and I just fucking hate it. The person on the other end would still be able to hear them if they just spoke normally.

I think alot of the worst things that could ever possibly happen tend to happen on the bus.


People who talk about Football who just reiterate the nonsensical tabloid spinning gossip they hear from the Sun. I was in the chippy last night, and the bint behind the counter in her Rangers tracksuit started yammering on about "That Ronaldo's off at the end of the season" to some guy who was waiting for his food, to which he replied "Oh aye. Big bucks innit". What the fuck does that even mean? It doesn't mean anything. So just don't say anything, ever.

NO!

I won't hear a bad word against the ewoks. That bit makes my eyes glaze over with joy. I fucking love the ewoks. You should watch the original cut... the song is loads longer

Person-to-Person
I object to being called "mate" by shop assistants.

Electronically
I despise the use of "text speak" in email or in forum posts - "no wot i mean m8 rofl omg wft lmoa?"

Another one that boils my piss and it seems to be a North East thing - is the use of "wandering" for "wondering" - e.g. "I was wandering what time you're*** coming round tonight"

*** thick cunts would most likely use "your"

I thought anyone that actually liked Star Wars thought the Ewoks were rubbish?


I had the Ewoks cartoon on video when I was a nipper. It was crap.
