    I hate when rugby fans go on about how superior their players are when it comes to respecting the referee, as opposed to soccer players.

    They usually neglect to mention that a big proportion of rugby players grew up in privileged families and went to elite private schools, while also going on to study in university.

    Soccer players don't have those advantages (as a general rule), and consequently they don't have a culture of respecting referees


    Education is not a cure for ignorance.

    This, and when you are looking up ingredients/instructions on something and they have the British flag beside the part we read. I know, if it had the Irish flag it would be in Irish and we'd probably read the English part anyway, but still, annoys me.

    So you're giving out about people occupying seats singly which prevents you occupying seats singly?

    Hunds bus seat rule ie; rule of maximum multiplicity. I still hate it. Though the electrons are far less annoying when they do it in the orbitals.

    Working in an office with six girls, kettle makes eight cups of tea or coffee, would it kill them to top up the water for a seventh or eighth cup and THEN boil the kettle and not have me waiting around for the kettle to boil again for the sake of a cup of coffee? :mad:

    Trying to read a newspaper outdoors on a sunny day and the slightest of breezes interfering with it

    Not being able to get a buzz-free reception on radio

    Going to buy something (or a few things) for roughly €2 or €3 and not having enough change despite my pocket being weighed down

    Maybe they just like collecting autographs?Or maybe they sell them on afterwards?Some autographs can be quite valuable.
