Whenever it's hot and the papers say something like "hotter than Tenerife" or "as hot as Miami".

Do we really think they give a toss that they're slightly cooler than the United Kingdom for one day?

When you become 'suspicious' that the person texting you is not that person because their style and spelling/ grammar seems very unlike them (no...not drunk)

so you become so suspicious and so paranoid that you ask them a question only they would know and they are spot on...freaks me out

Has this happened to anyone else?

Unless they have had someone else text you in the past why would you ever assume that?

I know... it's just so bizarre! just recently, it's been like that. Really not like them at all... actually had me thinking someone had found her phone and thought they'd have a bit of fun.

People who are genuinely angry and distraught that a contestant on the show "The Chase" has taken a low offer and go on twitter to moan about it hahahaha.

This bothers me as well. But they don't talk. They shout.

Went to the theatre last night, which was meant to be audio described, which wasn't. I had to sit next to a family with a young child. The man would not stop eating / fiddling with something every 5 minutes and the child would not sit still.

And when it gets hot they suddenly start using Fahrenheit again, so you get the temperature suddenly jumping from 31° to 90°, which is a complete nonsense.

Okay I've bottled this up for too long and now I must unleash it...

People who type 'nom nom' underneath a photograph of a food item on social media.

It's the most vacuous, inane, childish piece of talk invented and used by complete simpletons

One which was annoying me this morning - actors holding forth about their latest role, and how they took the part because they empathise with the character and it's an important story to tell.
Bollocks - you took the part because you were paid to do so! Tell the truth!

Damn right.

And they go on about how 'emotionally draining' a role is.

Really?

Try real life - that is ******g emotionally draining a lot of the time.

Poncing around reading a few lines and getting paid vast sums of money is not.

TV presenters (like those on Ch4 right now who are presenting the Paralympics) who wear skin coloured microphones.

They look like they have giant skin tags ewww!

Tall people who sit in front of me at a show or even worse, stand in front of me at a standing gig. I'm short and I just cannot see!!

This is so annoying. I'm average height, around 5' 7" or 8" and always get to the front. But if there's somebody smaller I usually step back so they can see. Trouble is some inconsiderate 6' plus idiot always pushes to the front even though they are just a few feet back and ruin everybody's view.

I also have a special hatred for people who have their tablet out recording the whole time. People with selfie sticks are the worst of the lot, they take inconsiderate and take it to a new level entirely!

I had this at a concert earlier this year. Usually if I'm going to a gig I get seats, but on this occasion I was booking last minute and was lucky to even get standing. I always make sure to turn up early and sure enough got there just as the venue was opening. Got a great place with a good view of the stage and was perfectly happy until around 10 minutes before the gig was supposed to start. The venue was selling booze so obviously loads had flocked over to the bar and were absolutely plastered by the time the gig started. We had all of them shoving to the front, pushing next to us and generally being ignorant a*******. The worst was two extremely tall lads and their girlfriends who pushed in front of us, totally blocking our view. Not only this, but the two lads spent the majority of the night hitting on two older women behind us. When they went to get drinks during a track we promptly moved into the space they were standing and refused to move when they came back.

Neighbour behind spending six months to build a tiny shed for his daughter. We used to have an elderly woman living behind us, had permanent piece and quiet from her, sadly she passed away and a family moved in. They've actually had the place extended which didn't make that much noise, but every single weekend the father is out at 7:30am, drilling and hammering and generally making as much noise as possible. This goes on for at least seven hours, and despite all of this it's hard to see what his work actually produces. The shed seems to have been finished several months ago so why he is still working on it I don't know, it's bloody frustrating though.

The way that virtually every man in every film nowadays has to speak in a ridiculously affected deep, gruff voice.

They even had Han Solo doing it in the latest Star Wars film. Compared to Han this time round, Darth Vader in the old films sounds like Joe Pasquale.

I suppose there's one good thing about it though; whenever I hear that voice in a trailer I know that the film is going to be irredeemably cack and not to waste my time watching it.

Supposedly intelligent university students out on the town acting like pi55ed up thugs.
The future is bleak now that even the better half of young folk are acting like morons.

Really pushy people trying to get me to sign up to a charity or broadband that stand outside shops. The fact that they hired these annoying people puts me off giving them my money.

People who post pics of food, fullstop. By all means tell me you had Beef Wellington or Smoked Salmon, but do we need a photo?

Oh yes. It's been a bee in my bonnet for many years. First, only the rough, threatening villains did it, then the tough-guy heroes adopted it, then every male in the cast adopted it. That was the movies. It then moved over into TV, with most of the male cast of EastEnders doing it. Not only is it stupid, it makes the dialogue very hard to follow.
