Or buses when they arrive, people crowding towards the doors before the last crowd have even gotten off.

I learned this the very first time I was in London on the underground......manners dictate that everyone waits until all passengers have gotten off the train before anyone gets on, keeping clear of the door as they do so. Also, on the escalators or stairs, you keep to the left hand side and don't just stand there in the like a damn lemon :mad: Some people are in a hurry and like to walk up the escalator to expedite the process..

I am sick to death of having to take evasive action when people come down/up stairs two or sometimes three abreast.

When people hold their cutlery like pens, darts or hammers..

Sir Arthur Daley

When you leave for work late, about to drive off and realise you have forgot to bring your lunch, run back to house for lunch and realise you left the house keys in the car so run back to the car for the keys to open the door.

Yes, but we were talking about death rates from eating undercooked beef or lack thereof and scientific evidence to back it up....

The way people sitting at the back of a bus facing the driver stare at you when you have to try to navigate/bump/crawl/trudge your way to the only free seat that happens to be opposite them. What are you staring at fuuckers?? It's not my fault they designed the bus for midgets!

Ya know, you're really gonna have to start cycling to work

People clanking their cutlery off their teeth as they eat, and holding said cutlery like they're holding a shovel. Also Noisy eaters. Learn some table manners you caveman.

A couple on evenings ago, I am walking the faithful hound on footpath ( which permits cycling) all nice and quiet then out of nowhere, fcuking WHOOOSSH, lycra clad bikeman at the speed of sound passes by, missing me by a hair and frightens the bejaysus out of me. dog looks at me as if to say WTF was that.:)

I have to take immunosuppressant injections once a week and within a couple of days of taking it I have a head cold. I only just get rid of it and then I have the next injection and it starts all over again. Sitting here with a lemsip, fever and itchy, sneezy nose. Christ only knows what I'll be like when I switch from the injections to the infusions. Freaking weird diseases:mad::mad::mad:

Speed limit? It's f*cking illegal to cycle on a footpath.

I was walking on the path one day, there was a cycle lane beside said path, some ars*hole on a bike starts shouting at me from behind. Needless to say I told him to get off the f*cking path. Dickhead.

Running out of staples. Don't know why it's so annoying 'cos we all know you can't fit all that many staples into a standard stapler and they're going to run out over and over again. I'm generally fairly peaceful but trying to staple something when nothing happens because the staples are all gone yet again, can induce Bruce Banner levels of rage!

Youtube videos where the maker's name, logo, credits etc, take up 50% of the length of the video.

Youtube videos with those square/rectangular kind of coloured but transparent popups linking to another video.

The kind of youtube popups mentioned above, but they are placed so when you move the mouse to close them down, as you hover the mouse over the (x), the title of the video drops down from the top of the viewer, and you can't close them. Fucking HATE those.

To be fair to Lance, it is one of those 50/50 paths marked for walking and cycling. My gripe is had I taken a stagger left he would have mangled me, him, the bike and (most important of all) the dog:)

Any mention of China on Boards leads to someone whipping out the "Great bunch of lads" quote.

Makes me want to cut their fingers off with a blunt scissors.

The microwave queue in work, and the fcukers who skip it.

When my body just wont do the things I tell it to do.

Just do it body, we don't care if it hurts tomorrow just do it NOW! DO IT!

But it never does. It just wants to sit down and get filled up with food.

Biting nails doesn't bother me so much but what I can't stand is seeing nails that have been bitten back to nothing and look red raw.

When your OH tells you they are really too busy in work to take calls/text from you...................then they bitch because you don't call/text...

I hate when you are online looking for cheap insurance you have to fill in your number. I fill the form in online so i don't have to talk to the staff. Within an hour I usually have a phone asking me was I happy with my cheap quote. :mad:

Going to the "secret, hidden" stock of rollerball pens at the office, and discovering that the new box of 12 that only arrived recently has been completely emptied yet again. Hate ordinary biros, they are so much harder to use on some types of paper.

There's a group of 5 lads, aged about 9, running around outside my house shouting their high-pitched shrieky, excitable little heads off. Giving me a headache and freaking out my foster kitten. Bloody kids enjoying themselves, bloody cheek I tells ya. I blame the parents:)

Strange, when i'm out on my bike (cycling for the sake of fresh air and fitness) and I see some flubbery headed pink thing chuffing a fag behind the wheel of a car I think 'ah, the poor lazy bastard', because it's highly likely they couldn't get their leg over a bike even if they wanted to.


Note - no, i'm not referring to you, or your mother!

People with loud voices who have no consideration for anybody else, for example the c*nt that sits beside me and insists on blabbing away at the top of her voice when I'm on the phone.
