Think they should make normal coke bottles and cans again as this name thing is getting on my nerves. Maybe in a separate section so that I avoid the name sheep

Cashpoints that ask you if you want a receipt and view balance AFTER you've requested the Cash only option. Grrrr
People who find The Inbetweeners funny. Maybe it's an age thing but I find their brand of humour more depressing than amusing.
Tom Hardy's character in Locke being Welsh. Why does he have to be Welsh? I wouldn't mind if the actor was Welsh but Hardy has to put on a Welsh accent and for no relevance to the plot as far as I can see so far.
I can't stand it when people say it's the greatest moment of their lives.
For some it might be - but for most surely getting married, or even just having a long lasting loving relationship, and definitely children would be the best thing that's happened to many people.
£1m may be the exception, but people say it when they win a couple of grand, or a football trophy or even a gold medal.
Family would still come first wouldn't it?
Maybe they're just on autopilot or saying what people, especially the producers/interviewers/viewers, want to hear.

I got around this problem by changing my name by deed poll to 'Coca Cola'.

It's not even a name on a BOTTLE ! It's a name printed on a LABEL !
Having just been on holiday, these are some things that annoyed me:
Childen who were too young to be at the buffet by themselves going up to the buffet and poking their fingers in the food
Groups of people who had gone on holiday together reserving about 15 sunbeds at 7.30 am!
Not being able to swim in the pool due to 100 inflatables (that may be an exaggeration)
People smoking vapour pipes on the coach, actually people smoking them anywhere

All credit to their marketing team though!

One of the blokes at work ordered 2 glass bottles direct from Coca-Cola on their website for him and his girlfriend.
He was expecting to get them with their names carved in the glass but they just sent 2 Coca-Cola bottles that were replicas of the plastic ones but made of glass and had the normal labels with the name printed on them.
Mug!
Certain aspects of eBay are annoying me at present.
Like when you have something up for auction and you get loads of messages asking what your best buy it now price is.
Even worse if it's a classified ad. Clearly if I've put it at a price that's what I want for it. If you want to make me an offer to consider then do so and as long as it's not stupidly low I may accept.
Don't ask me for my best price then when I say something close to the advertised price start moaning that I should sell it for half of what I'm asking.

Stoopid drivers.
Today heading north on the approach to the Forth Bridge, 3 lanes go into 2 lanes, plenty warning signs advising drivers that the right lane will end in 200 yds drivers gayly passing me on the right happily ignoring a space I leave them 50 yds from the merge point, THEN they find out [ sound of penny dropping ] the lane ends THEN they want to be let in to my lane .
Oooh, you can f**k off mate.
Bastards.

Weird people who act attention seeking/overtly weird and then complain to me when no one fancies them or wants to hang out with them. That's the risk you take when ya act like that so quit whinging.
Minor irritant; When people don't follow you back on twitter,
also the fact that uploading pics on there is a nightmare, twitter sucks is what I'm trying to say.
This isn't trivial but I just want to rant:
'friends' of mine saying I'm being annoying (to the landlord) for wanting to take legal advice over the fact that the landlord wants to take £260 off me for doing nothing wrong. Maybe they'd be willing to blindly accept it and pay up but if I can straighten this mess out and get my money back then it's worth a shot. It's not just about the money either it's about the principal - that they have lied about the condition of the room and have made me out to be a liar too, which is completely unjustified.

I'm English and say mam, everyone I know does too. it annoys me too when I rarely find a card with mam on it.

I noticed that during the Southampton Liverpool game yesterday, everyone was wearing bright yellow or pink boots (mostly yellow). I agree they look way too camp
Roundabouts that have two lanes allocated to those going straight over, but which then merge into one within a few yards of the exit. It's actually dangerous, yet the eastern approach into Derby has a whole series of them.
