People who post really stupid, obscure comments on FB and think it's witty. For example, I mentioned I'd been to a local open air concert and my cousin posted "So there wont be any newspapers there LOL " I asked what he meant and was told to get a sense of humour if I can't take a joke! He does that all the time, posts bizzare comments and then gets angry when people haven't a clue what he's on about.
And any other voice-activated personal assistant. I can't stand talking to machines. It's annoying seeing these advertised all the time.
Yeah, they're so cringeworthy. Also, why are we encouraging noise? Buttons are nice and quiet. Imagine living in a place with thin walls and hearing next door always going "XBOX ON!" "OKAY GOOGLE..."
Motor scooters. Or at least the ones owned by a group of young ar$eholes just along the road. It wouldn't be so bad if they'd just kick them up an ride off, but for some reason they have to sit there revving the tockers off them (rrrraaammm pam pam popop pop, RRRRRAMMMM popop pop etc) for about 10 minutes before they set off. And of course the street fills with grey smoke. Cocky little latter-day mod-a-likes.
I asked my brother what to get his girlfriend and he said a bottle of Prosecco would do. I'd never heard of it and had a time finding it in the supermarket. Now it's all over the place.
The slow handclap thing that Wimbledon spectators have started doing in yecent years. Is it a 'why are we waiting' type of thing or what? I think it's damned disrepectful.
The fact that, apparently, it's too difficult for people to imagine a pair of glasses on the picture of myself on my work ID badge (I didn't need them when I started working where I do), meaning that I had to get a new one done today. At least it was free.
To shutdown my laptop I click shutdown and it shuts down.
To shutdown my pc I must click turnofcomputer then click shutdown, then it shuts down.
When using the pc I'm forever just doing the first part, forgetting about the 2nd part, then coming back a couple of hours later to find it still up'n running and eating electricity. Damn that 2nd step, damn it to hell.

In quite a lot of restaurants down here, (London), they'll give you a free glass of Prosecco if you order a minimum of two courses at dinner.
Mopeds or high pitched motorcycles that sound like chainsaws.
You're in bed trying to get back to sleep and in the distance hear one and just know for the next several minutes you're going to hear it get louder and louder as it crawls it's way up the road and past your house
I'm sure I've mentioned it before, but I'm hearing and seeing it so much lately (including on these forums) that I'll just have to keep moaning about it until it stops!
It's people who say "floor" when they mean "ground". The ground is outside and the floor is, for instance, inside a room. I used to think it was a northern thing but I hear it all the time now. So irritating.

Do you work for the Daily Planet? They seem to have problems recognising a colleague when he isn't wearing his glasses

Just heard a message on the Steve Wright show - "Tell him I love him to the moon and back" WTF?
A very valid thing to be annoyed about. Extremists and idiots blowing themselves up and causing pain and suffering is certainly not trivial >:(

Oh that's a trendy thing at the minute, you will see that on handmade pictures, jewellery etc at craft fairs. Sickeningly sweet, isn't it?
Same here!
Anything and everything about that no-talent ****ers show annoys me intensely. I cannot believe he is still in employment.

Where have you been living, on the Moon?
To quote J. McEnroe, you cannot be serious.

I vow to only ever use Travelodge from now on. Or, if I feel like treating myself, possibly the Marriot or Radisson.
No, I'm on Planet Teetotal though.
