It seems to me that you are wasting your breath trying to get something turned down. If they want it loud, then they will have it loud, quite irrespective of other people's comfort.

I wouldn't mind the music they play at ~4am if they did it through the tanoy(?) system so it was spread evenly around the store. The way Tescos do it is to have a radio by the veg, on FULL blast which means when you go to pick up your potatoes you have to do so at full speed to stop your ear drums from crumbling.

I hate loud music in shops..Its so distracting and i forget what i went in for with that crap they play,,very loud and can't concentrate

I went into the city centre Aldi store here in Liverpool at lunchtime and all the queues were full of coffin dodgers who could have been in there before or after lunch.

I wouldn't know. My condition is ME/CFS, not ADHD!

Blame Aldi for not putting enough staff on at lunchtime, not the poor old oldies who have a right to shop there whenever they want!

Why would they want it loud though? I would have thought that's more likely to encourage people to get out quick, rather than lingering and buying more stuff!

People who barter in charity shops.

Having the right to is fine. If I was off work I wouldn't go in at lunchtime.

All the tills were open.

There could be several reasons why old folk are shopping at lunchtime. They're not necessarily being inconsiderate by doing so.

THOSE guys who ogle at every single woman in a bar or nightclub, who feel it's their responsibility to drunkenly grind up against them like some peacock fluttering it's tail away. Evemoreso the girls who 'get off' on them doing it and have no self-respect for themselves.

When the telephone lead is twisted and curled like an out of control umbilical cord. If I'm in someone's office, or a hospital waiting area, I can scarcely stop myself from grabbing the offending article and untwisting it! And, yes! I do have OCD!

Finishing work at the "wrong" time.

For example some days i have a starting time and i finish when im finished, which varies between 2-8pm although the most common time is about half four to five.

When i finish around half four its ideal because my partner finishes work the same time so he picks me up on the way home. Its when i finish a bit early i dont know what to do. I can either sit at work and wait for 40 mins to be picked up, or i can walk home. The dilemma is i feel like im wasting time sat at work waiting, but if i walk i only get home about ten minutes before i would if i waited!

The use of the word "upmost" - I try my upmost to... It's uTmost. With a T.

Yeah, it's trivial, but for some reason it really annoys me.

People who try to stop you in the street when you're on your way home from work or shopping etc because they want to sell you something. **** off. Who wants to be stopped? Nobody. Ban it.

I was just in town walking from work and this idiot walked in front of me and told me I had a nice jacket to get me to get me to listen, I was clearly not interested seeing as I said no and walked in another direction, and then he had the nerve to start following me!

constantly having a stuffed up nose...how is it possible to be constantly stuffed up

Me at the self-service checkout.

Me - *scans item, puts it in bag*
Self-service checkout - "Unexpected item in bagging area. Please remove item."
Me - *removes item*
Self-service checkout - "Item removed from bagging area. Please replace item."
Me - *replaces item*
Self-service checkout - "Unexpected item in bagging area. Please remove item."
Repeat two or three times, until I get fed up and press the "assistance needed" button.

Incidentally, all I was doing was buying a pair of tights and a 4 pint bottle of milk.

Yes, I think you're right.

Unfortunately I think a lot of them do!

I've been know to do this. But only with DVD's. We have one charity shop that has hundreds of them. This is only because they sell them for £3 each. A ridiculous price for 2nd hand. I suggested to the worker they sell them cheaper or have a deal 5 for £10 and I as well as others would buy them. But they said they are not allowed. Fine they won't sell them then.

Shops which won't allow people to try on clip earrings. I understand the reasoning for not trying on pierced ear ones (risk of infection) but trying on clip ones is no more risky than trying on a watch, necklace or pair of shoes.

Some clip earrings can hurt like hell so it is important to try them first.

I hate the way everything is 'rechristened' ( over and over again each time it changes ) with the name of it's sponsor.

You never know from one year to the next what the name of a sports tournament or league is because it may have changed it's sponsors.

When I was a kid you had the Charity Shield, The League Cup, The FA Cup and The European Cup.
All of a sudden the League Cup became 'The Milk Cup'
Lord knows what it's called these days..I gave up trying to keep up with the name changes years ago.

Even beloved grounds which are held dear in the hearts of individuals and communities are renamed after some multinational big bucks company.

On or in a similar vein, I just get so fed up, of movie franchises having a "reboot" to the storyline.
I mean how many different Batman, Spiderman, Superman etc storylines have we had over the years?

I wish there could be one constant thread through them all.

If new actors are needed, fine, but at least keep some, if not most of what has already happened before in the storylines.

It just really annoys me, how they keep changing everything, and trying to start from scratch again.

When you done the washing and notice that there is a wet tissue in a pocket or up a sleeve..A wet bitty tissue was in my jeans pocket and all bits were everywhere..

now that is very annoying intensely
