Trivial things that annoy you

Cheerful people annoy me. There's just something unnatural about it, especially in the morning. <snip>

Whistlers in shops. Whistling a nothing tune they are making up as they go along.

People that do the whole "cheers" thing when the first round of drinks have been bought. I don't mind if celebrating doing it but annoys me when it's done without a special occasion.

Fcuking weather can't make up it's mind! Either piss rain and get it over with, or let me leave my coat at home so's I won't sweat like a pig.

But don't fcuking piss rain when I'm going out in the morning, blast sunshine down when I'm indoors, piss rain on my way home, blast sunshine while I'm having my lunch and have me think it's going to be a clear afternoon...

Then five fcuking minutes after I'm out the door and I've left my coat at home and I've got my sunglasses on... FCUKING HEAVENS OPEN AND I GET DRENCHED! :mad:

People who believe fortune tellers and psychics actually can tell the future and speak to the dead.

Come on!

Weird punctuation like - our,s or there,s <-- like what is that... For a start there shouldn't be any punctuation in them words and there,s should be THEIRS... and my husbands friend texts him all the time and when saying Doesn't he writes Do:s Does my head in... and 'should of done something' it is 'should HAVE done something' annoys me so much... my friend asks me a question with no question marks and every sentence has a smiley face after it even if it is a subject not to be smiling at.

Yep, they usually open up with "would you like your fortune told?"

I respond with " well, if you are so fuucken hot at seeing the future, why are you asking me"

It annoys me when people don't punctuate their sentences properly, instead of using the odd full stop they just use comma after comma, turning what should be three sentences into one ginormous one, it reads like someone talking and talking without taking a breath, annoying isn't it?

In the same vein, constant use of ellipses instead of proper punctuation. Argh!

or LOL is fine but when some people write LOOOOOOLLLLL - I always write under it Laugh out out out out out loud loud loud (to the required number of letters of course) just to show them that its actually something very stupid they wrote...

Yes, the 'should of' really bugs me too.

LOL is certainly not fine when the texter uses it in every sentence!

Once dated a girl and i got sick of it quickly.

"Hi, how are you this morning? LOL"

"So where are we going later? LOL"

LOL, Really... whats so funny? It turned me off what was a nice girl. I had visons of the future ?

"Dont worry, im sure you'll recover from the flu, LOL"

"Dont worry about your parents divorce LOL"

"My dad died, LOL"

:mad:

My friends Mother used it all the time thinking it was Lots of Love... that was ok until she text someone to offer her condolences on an issue and we were like "Whats so funny?"

OldNotWise, are you doing anything nice for the long weekend?

what really, really really really annoys me is when i go to almost any shop counter, waiting to be served, i get the same stupid question... 'are ya all right?' what does that mean? When did that become the standard customer service response? whats wrong with asking 'can i help you?' or 'what can i get for you?'

anyway, it really annoys me, so whenever I'm asked 'are ya all right?' i ask, 'in what way exactly? mentally? emotionally? physically?
stupid, i know... but it bloody annoys me so much...

So, in a busy bar or nite club, when the bar staff finally get to you and say "Hi, are you alright", that's how you reply. I reckon you will die from thirst:D

This reminds me of those God botherers that stand on street corners and the like, some even set up a stall and have people handing out pamphlets, so this one girl approached me with -


"Would you like to let God into your life?"

"No thanks, I'm Muslim!"*


The "Ehh??" reaction on her face was priceless



*I'm not actually Muslim, I'm Roman Catholic, I just have no time for God bothering shìte!

I absolutely hate it when people come up to the till in work and are talking away on their phone at the same time ignoring me completely, not even acknowledging my existence. I would never ever do that if I was in a shop, I think it's so incredibly rude. If the phone rings when the person is at the till then that's fair enough, but otherwise....gtfo.

I'm sorry but 90% of people on tills are just as ignorant, and they're not even on the phone.

Maybe she was confused because she knows that Muslims believe in God.

What's annoying me atm is the tiny knife I have in an airport café. It's not like if they gave me a regular-sized (blunt) knife that I'd be able to sneak it onboard & hijack the plane!
