When people say "ATM Machine" instead of just "ATM".

That was the point of the post

My wife puts the jax roll on the wrong (imo) way round.

In a civilised society it should spill gracefully over the top. Not hang from the back.

The Big Red Button

Hate it when you're eating and the waiter comes over and asks if everything's OK for you - always when you have a mouthful of food.

It's worse when they are over every two minutes. Come over just after the food comes, then leave me the fcuk alone for a while. If I need something after that, I'll get your attention.

I know they are probably told to do it, but it's still annoying.

People who don't leave a space after a comma or period,like this.Annoying.

People who call fullstops "periods". I don't say "the missus is in awful form, she's on her fullstop"

Footballers that do the heart shape sign with their hands that teenagers do, when they celebrate scoring a goal, Gareth bale being a recurring offender, dont know why but it annoys me

People who call their children really Irish names, yet they don't have a word of Irish themselves. I once made the mistake of saying this to an offenders face. She wasn't best pleased.

When posting youtube videos or quoting another poster on the touch site and you forget the slash in the BBCode so it posts all wrong! Especially with multiple quotes and you miss one or two slashes!

When someone has parked like a dickhead, and the only space left is right beside them. You squeeze in beside them, they leave and you look like you can't park to save your life :mad:

When you break your favourite pair of shoes because you're a clumsy idiot who insists on walking everywhere in your favourite shoes.

How do you know the person you think has parked like a dickhead wasn't faced with the same conundrum?

You don't have to speak Irish to call your child an Irish name.

When people say 'the' instead of 'my' when talking about family, e.g. the wife/the husband/the sister/the brother/the father/the mother.

Yes you do, every time you address them.

People asking for change for a hostel.

My housemate has an incredibly annoying habit. I only go the kitchen / living room area when I want to eat something.

Whenever I go there and make something to eat I can hear him coming down the stairs, and he just stands there and waits for me to finish rather than sitting down, watching TV until I'm finished. All I can think in my head when this happens is "B*tch, just go back up to your f*cking room, or sit the f*ck down and watch TV, because you standing there watching me cook/wash up is both creepy and annoying.

Also, he always leaves bits of food, like the outside papery layer of onion, all over the kitchen floor and on the cooker..

It's incredibly annoying.

Of course, me being the non-confrontational wimp that I am, I never say anything :rolleyes:

When you have finished working in a dirty dusty environment,
even with a dust mask invariably there is a build up of dried snots in the nasal passage.
A good oul pick is required, but some are stubborn little feckers and just roll about inside
despite your best efforts. After a while you swap to the other nostril only to have the
stubborn bástard stick to your finger and be introduced as extra snot in nostril number 2!

Sinks with separate hot and cold taps where the water in the cold tap is piped straight from the Arctic ocean and the water in the hot tap is piped from the deepest depths of hell! And then to wash your hand you have to constantly keep juggling between the two taps to avoid getting frost bite one way and getting your skin scalded the other... Why can't people install those mixer taps and make life simpler for everyone?!!
