    When you get one of those foreign coins in your change that looks deceptively similar to a €2 coin! :mad:

    So deceptive in fact that only for the bus driver spotting it I'd never have been aware of it.

    On After Hours, the second or third post of a thread is usually along the lines of 'Cue (topic) joke in a desperate bid to get thanks' which is really just a desperate bid by that person to get thanks. That's annoying.

    The other annoying reply is the 'Thinly veiled "I've got a (topic)" thread'. Whatever chance of that ever being funny disappeared after the 60th time of reading it.

    Thinly veiled "I've no sense of humour" :pac:

    When someone gets a lift in the back of your car but forget to roll up the window upon exiting.

    Major pain in my balls to go back and roll up the window.

    I don't suffer from road rage at all, so why do I suffer from hoover rage? If the hoover doesn't follow me around the corner, gets stuck behind a chair leg, or even worse, tips over on its side, my blood absolutely boils.

    I wasn't referencing anything in this thread. It was more in regard to media reaction to things that are said/done by people in the public eye.

    So ignorant. I always lick the sugar spoon before putting it back in so there is no tea or coffee.

    When my son acts the bollocks.

    I got caught short when I was collecting him there from school so I asked him where the toilets were.

    As I was on my way out I met a girl on her way in and thought "Unisex toilets? That's a bit modern!", until I got outside and there was the little troll-hard, "Whaaat?", barely able to contain himself.

    "You sent me into the girls toilets, didn't you?" :mad:

    Fake cryers at funerals - those egotistical, ignorant, smarmy little piss-ants who do readings and pretend to cry, and then get a clap. Fcuk me, I'd love break their spines. Of all the times or places they could choose to put on a "poor me" act, a funeral is not the one! There is a family who are genuinely grieving sitting right in front of you, you spoke to uncle Joe all of 3 times in your life and one of them times was an argument, you were picked at random to represent the GAA club as a mark of respect to Joe for his 50 years of dedication to his beloved club, while you only breezed onto the scene 2 months ago, and now you're up on the alter reading fcuking bullsh1t poetry that Joe wouldn't have had a clue about, pretending that you're devastated to the point of crying at his death just so you can massage your own ego when the crowd claps. Well why don't you take a bow aswell you repugnant little sh1te.

    Metallica 'fans' that don't really listen to their music or listen to any other metal bands or know much about music in general yet own more Metallica t-shirts than Metallica albums but still think they're heavy metal incarnate...

    Why can't they accept they're simply more boring than they let on? There must be support groups for these people IMO.

    When a pop up blocks your screen and clicking on the little x takes you to the website instead of closing it, then when you press x again it asks if your SURE you want to leave the page. Of course I'm sure! I didn't want to come here in the first fcuking place. :mad:

    Coming into the office after the bank holiday and there's no proper milk for your coffee, so with a certain hesitancy you try out that "soya" milk...

    Ohh good god it was like something you'd drink out of the toilet bowl, absolutely disgusting altogether. Straight up to the shop I went for a decent drop of milk!

    Just looking at pictures of Google Glass makes me want to punch myself in the face. I wonder how long it is before I see some dick wearing them in Tesco.

    Horses for courses, I've tried many others over the years, but IE works for me.

    Trivial thing that annoys me, well, doesn't really annoy me, but people who insist that such and such <insert software or tech toy here> is better than such and such.

    It all depends on what you want to do really and which product will achieve a specific task more efficiently and when deployed will integrate within your current environment with the least amount of downtime possible.
