Entering an online competition before reading the rules, only to find after reading the rules that you REALLY don't want to be entering that darn competition and now have the scurry around to find whom to contact and then how to contact them (sites love to make their email contact deals hard to find) so you can get your darn name removed from the draw.

Guys on dating sites who get annoyed when (after them messaging me lots) I tell them they're not my type. It's them constantly sending me questions, ya can't just assume that everyone will fancy you. And then they reply something like 'oh well I thought you were pretty' as if I've turned ugly overnight lol.
Also the hypocrite men who will type on their profile ' I don't want any tarty girls who show skin and sleep around etc' but these same guys will post photos of themselves butt naked. Leaving nothing to the imagination. Makes me laugh. Not a dating site gripe but also annoys me when I email people (about jobs etc) and they take forever to get back to me or don't bother replying. Arseholes that's what they are. |

Buying a set of mini screwdrivers for £1.79 on eBay (with free delivery) only for them to be sent RECORD DELIVERY. While being a brilliant way of securing their arrival what I find puzzlingly irritating is my lack of understanding how the seller is able to make any money by doing this:
Cost of padded envelope ~70p, cost of recorded delivery ~£1.50 and he is already out of pocket before we've even factored in the cost of the screwdrivers. Guess something things are just not meant to be understood

Dog poo. Or rather, treading in dog poo.
Why can't the dirty gits (the owners) clean up after their pets ffs? |

Buses that go around the ass end of nowhere instead of straight down the main road. I had the mispleasure of using one earlier today as my car was in for a service. What should have been a 20 minute ride took a good hour because they had to drop every unwashed oik off in a different backwater excuse for a village

Women who post "selfies" on FB that have apparently been taken by a giraffe. This is presumably to showcase the cleavage?
TV programmes that show what's coming up after the break. I'm impatient but I can wait three minutes! People who change their life by doing "a complete 360". Doesn't that take you right back to where you started? Chatty hairdressers. The radio is on, the place is full of noisy dryers, you handed me magazines and now you want to chat about my summer plans? |

Supermarket workers stood by the self-service tills who whisk away your basket as soon as you've scanned all your shopping. Hey wait a mo lady, just wait until I've gone, then if I've left the basket there, fine take it then, but for all you know I'm going back for more food, or I'm one of the nice people who returns their used basket to the stack. You've made me use this darn self-service till cos all the other manned/wommanned tills are used up so please just back off until I'm done. Quote:

Best to bring your own bags. You'll be charged for them eventually, as we are in Wales!

Seriously pssd right now.
Sunday saw me win an eBay auction, very rare comic, outta print for years, crucial comic to fill a whole in my collection. Quite a few listings for it by they were at stupid money. This one looked like it would go cheaper. Sniped in at the last minute and got it for ~£38 - yes it's a lot but worth it to me. Then what do I find whilst doing my monthly preorder in my online LBC, the very same comic on offer for £5, yes 5 frickin pounds, and I'm quite damn sure that wasn't there on Sunday or any time previously that I looked. So... bugger!!! It's always the way, for a while I was all chuffed that I out sniped some ahole, he came in late to beat the rest but I came in even later and topped him like a Boss. And then THIS happens. And the £5 one will probably be a brand spanking new one in pristeeeeeen condition. Bugger. Maybe this is a time to try my hand at eBay selling to see if I can get some fool to part with their hard earned cash.... Bugger.

People who moan about the ALS Ice bucket challenge. It's hurting no-one, not exactly difficult to avoid and is raising awareness and a huge amount of cash for a very good cause.

Americans who thought that, because I'm from England, I *must* know their mother's next door neighbour's window cleaner's daughter in law. Or somebody from the Royal Family.
Thank god I'm no longer in America.
