To add to this - have a look at some items for sale on Amazon where people have asked some very reasonable questions in the Q&A section. Then some muppets come along and answer with something like "dunno, was a gift for my son, sorry". I mean, REALLY? Why ****ing bother??

Really frustrates me.

Yea they clearly don't realise those emails go to everyone who has bought that product on the off chance they will know the answer, it's not personalised to just them to respond.

But even if they did, why bother wasting the effort and time to tell someone else "I don't know"!? Similarly, look at the reviews on Amazon - you'll see loads giving 5 stars with comments like "bought it as a present. No idea what it's like but it arrived promptly". That review is literally worthless to everyone.

Yes, it's supposed to be a review of the product but a lot of low scores are being given because they're moaning about the delivery. Then at the end of them moaning they'll say the actual thing they've bought is really good but they gave it a 1 star.

The increasing trend for in depth reviews and analysis of film trailers. It's got to the stage of Oscar speculation for Harry Styles based on a few seconds in the Dunkirk trailer.

Can't people wait until they see the actual film before deciding whether it's any good or not?

People who faff about when you're trying to leave the house.

Also people who are unapologetic or people make excuses for them when they're late because 'oh it's so and so and they're always late'

And then you get this review - which is of no use to anybody:


That literally was the review.

I've almost run out of champagne. I bought a bottle of Vevue Clicquot earlier because it's Christmas and I haven't celebrated my new job yet, I also don't have work until January. It's my favourite but I can't have it all the time due to cost so it was a treat. I have a bottle of 2004 vintage sat in the kitchen that my husband gave me for Christmas last year but I said I would have that with him when we both have new jobs and he's waiting to see if he was successful with his interview. Think I may have to put the Prossecco in the fridge and stock up tomorrow.

Eitherway both options take you out of nature and aren't healthy.

Now that IS a first world problem.

Could be worse, I know someone who bought a new fridge only to find the door shelf was too narrow for champagne bottle.

100% with you on this. I stopped watching these many years ago.

Everything was in the description that they wanted yet they still found fault.

Then the presenters say that "this house is a bit over your budget .. by £20,000 WTF.

To me they are shows just for dreamers.

Well this is true. These shows are not factual documentaries designed to provide important information for those thinking of doing the same thing. It's an entertainment programme designed for (excuse the pun) escapism to enjoy what could be.

When you rush to get on a train at the last minute and ask someone "Is this train going to <wherever>" and they say "I hope so!" and giggle.

There are only 3 appropriate answers; "Yes it is", "No it isn't" or "I don't know"! Saying "I hope so" is totally unhelpful and just seeds further seeds of doubt.

I suppose it does.

But I would wager 100% that someone says something along those lines, you can take it to me a guaranteed yes.

What I've found annoying is when someone asks if 'this train' is going to where ever and I have said I don't know. They then say something like, but you're on this train and look at me like I'm being annoying. No darlin', I'm getting off before the last station and there are two separate terminating destinations this train could be for. So shut the hell up.

Sorry.

I hate it when a stranger in the street walks past and says 'cheer up love, it might never happen'. What the fruitcakes do they know? I might look miserable for a very good reason or if not I may just have an ugly, miserable face. Either way, it's a sure fire way to pee me off.

Someone (a total stranger) said that to me just after my husband had died. I do wish people would think before they speak.

Have a nice day is another one. Various shops I've worked in have tried to force the staff to spout this inanity. How do I know the customer isn't going to the funeral of a dear friend, or is about to be evicted? It's dreadful and intrusive.

People who at lunchtime go and sit in their car and then start the engine to warm up. Just seems an absolute waste of fossil fuel and also stinks up the pavement with clouds of lingering fumes.

When people get on a train and don't know where it's going so rely on other people to tell them.

And such a tiny possibility that 99.99% of the time that it will make no difference at all.

But this is DS, struggling with the most basic social interaction is a struggle for many.

Eh?

Doesn't change the fact that it's annoying regardless of circumstance.

Basic social interaction is please and thank you. I don't need strangers to rudely comment on my demeanour, nor shop assistants to deliver trite meaningless remarks.

And so what if 99.99% of people don't even notice? The feelings of the one person who does notice should be ignored?

I wonder how many people you have annoyed today? I wonder if you care?

Ridiculous post.

People who post questions on facebook or message boards when Google would have the answer in about 0.3 seconds...

I don't understand your post? Do you believe that shop assistants actually mean it when they recite the mantra 'have a nice day'? From my experience they couldn't give two hoots. Perhaps you only see the good in people, well done you!

People spelling disgusting as discusting. Really, really irritates me.
