"I'm not being racist but..." <insert racist comment here> Person quite clearly spends far too much time reading the Daily Mail instead of using their brain a bit too.
Yes you can, you can say lots of things without being labelled 'racist'. Specifically, non-racist things. |

And the closely related "You can't say anything these days without being labelled 'racist'."

Blokes who keep their headgear on when inside, especially in 'Behind Closd Doors' and hospital programmes. I was brought up to regard the wearing of hats by men inside as the height of bad manners.
I suppose it's a generational thing.

Being on a packed metro and people getting on with hefty backpacks which they don't remove from their backs on the crowded carriage.
The number of times I've been whacked in the face whilst sitting (or standing, I'm only 5 foot) by someone who is totally ignorant of what's just happened because, you know, it's all taking place behind them - take the bloody things off your back when there's not enough room to swing and cat and keep it down to your side you morons! Loads of examples on this thread really resonate with me. I did hope that as I got older I'd mellow a bit, but it appears I'm getting worse.

People snogging, cuddling or going over the top with the lovey dovey romance in public.
No thanks. I would rather watch a huge blazing row - possibly involving blunt instruments and the arrival of the rozzers.

There was a couple on my train a few months back. They were sat opposite each other, but both leaning forward in their seats, holding hands, and with their faces really close. They were talking quietly to each other, and giggling - and giving each other kisses occasionally. I'd put them at aged about 40. I felt like chucking a bucket of water over them.
And I don't mean them. |

Patiently waiting to speak with someone who is talking to someone else and that other person is just going on and on...they've said all they have to say but can't bring themselves to stop.
The same when the person your'e waiting to speak to is on the phone to someone and is trying repeatedly to say goodbye but whichever fool is on the other end of the line keeps finding something else to go on about. |

![]() One night we were having a night out in a local pub when he noticed a bloke at the bar had a shoelace untied and told him. Now it should have ended at that but no, he had to keep making snide remarks "Can't you tie your own laces? Should you be drinking, if you can't tie your laces how can you handle drink? I wouldn't sell him anymore booze, he can't even tie his own laces." He kept going on about right up to the moment he got a punch in the mouth. |

People who use 'angle' instead of 'angel' when writing out those RIP cards for children / younger people who nine times out of ten, the person writing it has never met but stands a chance of getting on the news.

People on a quiz table who always insist on putting down their answer (which turns out to be wrong)
Know-alls generally, as it goes.... |

People eating smelly food on public transport. Two girls in front of me on the bus were each munching a bag of stinky Nik Naks Gag.... |

When people ask a question by simply making a statement and following it with "Right?"

Now it's got to the time of year where it's cold in the mornings and the heater/fans in my car don't get anywhere near warm until I'm arriving in my works car park!

When you make a subtle little joke post involving a play-on-words and then someone points out the joke thinking that you didn't make it intentionally and 'missed it'. And then you reply thinking that they're making a joke but then it turns out they're actually being serious and genuinely think you did not make the joke intentionally and because you've been sarcastically replying there is no going back meaning it now looks as though you actually didn't make the joke on purpose and thus losing any kudos.

Another one. Is it possible to listen to a news broadcast at the moment without them endlessly babbling on about this bloody bake off competition and the winner Candice or whoever the hell it is.
Not news. |

Companies that bombard you with a catalogue every few days, and then when you DO decide to order something, it's always sold out.
Yes Cotton Traders. I'm talking about you. |
