I can understand the origins, I don't know why it annoys me but I'm not the only one.

Also

When they go green for traffic after a particularly long stop and a pedestrian starts walking across anyway at a leisurely pace.

Ian Guider with the business news.. the ISEQ closed at 'tree tousand two hundred and tirty' up tirty points on the day.
Then there's the Molloy guy on about the movies.. Daniel Day lewis getting his turd oscar is surely a classic, Also yer man at luch time, Jonathan Healy, he normally pronouces TH no problem... except when he's chatting to some other twat who doesn't; then he seems to 'forget' how to do it, or is he being incredibly sly an taking the piss out of them by doing it too? Jesus I'd like to think that; but I doubt it.. Surely these idiots shouldn't be allowed on air if they won't speak properly? This is just a recent pet hate, but it is starting to bug the absolute crap outta me..

I even have the OH at it now She came back from a day long meeting where the main speaker was one of these annoying Aholes, and gave out to me because it never annoyed her previously... Ah the joys of sharing your problems an worries in life

Annoys the crap out of me as well, seems to be a very Irish thing too

My ability to be able to pronounce Utterly Butterly with all silent 't's' is a thing of beauty…

Also a pet peeve of mine, that I have somehow ended up doing myself.

I blame my Cavan friends. They are notorious for it.

Look, for a lot of people, it's their accent. It's mine also. We're in Ireland, this is how we speak, and I'm not ashamed of it. Nobody said we have to pronounce the 'th' "correctly". There is no standard pronunciation.

How do you pronounce the word 'car'. What? With an 'r' at the end? You big fool, everyone knows one has to speak like the queen of England and say 'caaaaaaaaaaaaah'.

People who can't park between the lines. God help me I WILL reverse into the next space and leave my passenger door six inches from your drivers side door, and you can just ****ing deal with it.

I hate using public toilets. Why the hell can people not wipe the seat if they get pee on it? Why the hell can't they flush the damn toilet? The last thing I need to see is someone elses bowel movement.

My sister won't google search for something. She tries to guess the URL for everything! She doesn't realise that in google chrome the address bar is also the search bar. She has a degree in IT FFS :L

Our equivalent of Joe Duffy here in Cork is Neil Prendeville. It seems that half of people that end up on the air, generally the older generations go on about 'I don't mind that kind of carry on, Niall' or 'I think we're going to hell in a hand basket, Niall' or 'There's a website where you can get up to size 11 high heels, Niall'.

Drives me bananas so it does, Niall.

I can't fathom who would take a dump in a public toilet.

When knackers walk out in front of your car without warning and then proceed to stroll as slow as they can so they can annoy you even more.

ElWalrus

May have been covered before, but anyhow...

People who are in a rush to pull out in front of you in their car as you approach a junction and they see you coming, then drive really slowly.

Inevitably, your stuck behind them for miles cause its on a winding country road. Arrggghhh.

Product : 'thing produced by labour or effort'.
Not some slimy sh1te that some 'men' put in their hair to make themselves irresistible to women. I hate that use of the word even more than the desperate individuals that use it.

I always think using a public toilet is similar to getting together with girl for the first time. No matter what others may have done before you, be it amazing, terrible, messy etc, you just have to get in there and do your business.
