I like winding them up by saying that I'm at a time just before the Earth's about to be engulfed by the Sun, making it the last song to be heard on here - the time being the length of the song.”

There does seem to be a trend with milenials and snowflakes that they feel cool and edgy to know a song or film made before 2007. Anything pre 2000 to the hipsters is apparently like discovering the Holy Grail!

Funny and true!

Because it's the broadest hint they are allowed to drop that it is right on closing time and they want you to sod off.

Sorry but last minute customers are a pain in the ar*e.

People in a traffic jam driving at 1mph even though the people in front are 100 metres away. That's fine for you but I don't like the fact that you are stopping me from doing the speed that I want to do. I want to go as far as I can go, put the hand brake on and give my feet a rest.

It IS for a lot of the people who use it!

"What you see is what you get"

I was on the train yesterday and two older women were sitting at the table opposite me. Both were really loud and obnoxious and spent the entire journey bitching about their work colleagues and their managers. I spent alot of the journey cringing as neither of them paid ANY attention to what the other person said, all they were interested in was talking about themselves. They then started talking about how they didn't care if nobody liked them and that "I ain't no fake, what you see is what you get and I tell people that straight and people don't like it" and kept laughing and shrieking and ugh, it was like my worst ever idea of a personality in someone. I can't stand people like that.

One of them was also sort of "gloating" at the fact she did a security guards job for them and apparently told a drunk lad to go home and he listened to her yet ignored the security guard. It seemed like complete bullshit. Apparently the woman also told the security guard "look love, if you can't do your job, no point being here is there, I just done a 12 hour shift and I've just done your job for you as well!".

They were vile people. So obnoxious, self obsessed and rude. Everyone on the train was staring at them.

They're giving their feet a rest by idling in first gear ..... and not burning up the clutch by stop-start every ten seconds.

What about those people who feel compelled to constantly give themselves reassurance and an ego boost by making a story not about them, about them?

It's hard to explain but I know someone who does this and it's very annoying.

I know exactly what you mean. I have a friend, lovely woman generally and with a heart of gold, but everything is always about her and how she was affected. She phoned me once to tell me that my best friend (her partner) had been taken to hospital and I swear it took me a full 10 minutes to find out what had happened. All I got was "I didn't know what to do", "I called an ambulance and I was shaking like a leaf, I could hardly hold the phone, you know what I mean?", "I didn't know whether to call his son or not cos they don't get on", "I was only there cos I was off sick - my knee's been so bad I literally can't drive, it's a nightmare" etc etc etc etc.

People who say "not trying to be funny but..."

The irony is that they weren't going to say something funny in the first place.

The 'sticky' strips attached to 'resealable' bags of rice, Twirl bites, etc.

They're totally bloody useless.

This website. I think it's now reached the stage where it has dumbed down to the extent that it's no longer worth even looking to see how absurd it has become.

People at work who keep trying to set me up with another woman on my line.

Seriously, I'm certainly no gift to woman kind or a living Adonis but after trying to politely explain that said person is a complete moron and who speaks so softly that I can't understand 95% of what they say in a quiet room, let alone in the noisy environment in which we work that it aint gonna happen.

They simply wont accept that I'm not attracted to this person in any way either physically, mentally or on any other level.

Apparently if I accept and ignore the above I'll realise I was wrong and suddenly fall in love with her!

Whoa. Yeah. That's annoying.
I got stuck in traffic yesterday as two cabbies started a fight holding up the traffic. Luckily, cops arrived.

I know someone in their early twenties, intelligent guy and everything, who thought people only started using the word "cool" in the 90s. I found that baffling - had he never seen an old film from, say, the 1950s that featured that word? It's like all cultural events only happen in your lifetime and before you were born there was only a wasteland.

These Facebook posts:

"I'm praying for a cure for (insert disease/social ill) and I'm asking if everyone could put this as their status for 1 hour. I'm pretty sure I know the ones that will.

So if you bloody well know 'who will' then why not just tag them exclusively?

My cousin does these all the time

I once saw Judge Judy totally lose it with a black female whose speech was peppered with 'Ya know what arm sayin'?'

That bugs me while watching quiz shows with a contestant under 25 when they get a question about an event in the 80's or the Beatles. They often say 'it was before my time' as though that's an excuse for not knowing something.

After all both world wars were before most people's time and I'm pretty sure there's nobody alive from the era of Shakespeare or the industrial revolution.

My bottle of champagne seems flat, I think it's been in the fridge too long (since July as husband gave it to me for our wedding anniversary). I'm glad I never put the vintage one in the fridge, lesson learnt I won't put that one in there until a few hours before I drink it.
