Things that don't annoy you but seem to annoy others

    As the place is full of complaints I thought we should see what doesn't annoy ourselves but DOES annoy others.

    For me:

    Dubes - they're just shoes
    Beer/Weed tshirts
    Parents calling their child Fiachra
    People asking questions
    Slight spelling mistakes in a long post
    Religion
    The Mods
    Britney Spears
    The Radio (Although I'm never forced to listen to it)
    Ads

    Etc.. Actually I thought I'd have more :p I'll remember more later

    Tattoos on fat people

    Dublin accents

    People who don't flush the toilet after using it.

    Women who don't acknowledge when you give way to them in traffic.

    Baseball capped little **** driving Honda Civics with rear spoilers.

    Auld ones who ignore queues

    Lazy fcukers who park in disabled spaces and bound out with a "Fcuk you" grin

    Goons who let their dogs unload hefty turds on the pavement and then walk away

    Posters from Sligo who encourage Mods to ban people

    Jerks with the "bdoom bdoom" going at full decibel in their car

    Fat mother and fat daughter combinations who steamroll with a buggy around shopping malls oblivious of other people.

    Union officials with skanger accents.

    Public toilets

    Some people get annoyed when they realize they have an Ugly daughter and are forced somehow to call them Attracta.

    I have one: threads that are repeated on AH. It doesn't bother me, if you've read enough on the topic before just don't read the thread. Some people get so annoyed about it though. Not everyone has been here since time began.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,142 ✭✭✭ciano1


    nails on a blackboard...it doesnt bother me one bit but some people almost jump on the ground and cover there ears when they hear it

    +1 Give peace (and noobs) a chance!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,563 ✭✭✭connundrum


    The 'Yore Ma' thing.. doesn't bother me at all. I'd talk about Yore Ma all night and all day.

    Oh and fordiners (a la Bambi). They don't bother me much at all

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,854 ✭✭✭Sinfonia


    Love cold weather, most people don't.
    Although I don't like hot weather, so I don't like when people say, "It's a really nice day out!"...not for everyone!

    Wow, I turned that into a rant awful fast.

    I'm the opposite, most things annoy me that don't annoy others :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,013 ✭✭✭yayamark


    i am unannoyable. ie u cannot annoy me and the funny thing is that annoys people, like when they try and pull the piss out me and i laugh with them and say good one that really ****s them up :D;):p:) :rolleyes: :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,007 ✭✭✭pretty-in-pink


    most weather, wind aside, I like
    most people, we are basically good
    insults on forums make me laugh
    the hyper pc crowd make me laugh too
    bad makeup
    bad fake tan
    bad wardrobe
    actual stuid people (like thye really don't know, as opposed to the ones who fake it)

    not much annoys me

    the things that do i freak out over though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,267 ✭✭✭Exit


    Like a few people have said, the weather doesn't bother me. I'm not mad on hot weather but I'll tolerate it, and I love cold weather and the rain.

    pighead

    I'm a pretty intolerant person so I have to say it still surprises me when so many people have such a beef with Ryanair. I love them even though I've once been refused from a flight for a stupid reason (I didn't love them that morning but I've forgiven them).

    What really gets my tits wobbling is this bloody PC world we're living in.

    I'm of an age where I didn't grow up with politically correctness, we spoke straight and called a spade a spade.

    Now I've to watch everything I say incase some muppet takes exception because I said "shirt lifter" and that muppets second nephew twice removed is gay and I'm offending him :(

    Other things which annoy me.

    "How much can you bench?"..

    "Are you really a blackbelt?"..

    "Good evening, what will you have?" (I'm drinking in the same pub 15yrs now, you should know what I'll have).

    "do you take steroids?" ... No, I eat three shredded wheat, now fvck off I'm in a rage.

    I have a hangover this morning, so no doubt by the time I'm finished work I'll have a few pages of things which annoy only me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    Great.
    Put them in a thread about things that annoy you.

    Don't worry about it.
    You're not the first to make that mistake. :)

    Licking stamps.....although most don't need to be now.

    It never bothered me, but other people thought it was horrible.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,508 ✭✭✭Jigsaw


    My Sunday morning farts. They don't annoy me but they sure as hell annoy other people.
