People who moan about being ill/in pain but make no effort to do anything about it.
This also applies to film criticism. By all means shit on a movie but if you don't give any "this is how they could've done things better" then please join those ill people by gettingtfo. |

Just had to enter a discount code into an online checkout..... Gordon Bennett it was a nightmare!!
Basically, I couldn't tell if about half the characters were numbers or letters because the code was something like " WIOKII00IO0IFGH" for Christ's' sake!!? If these effing codes left out letters I and O and numbers 1 and 0 there'd still be well over 30 characters to play with.... including them is just perverse and wilfully annoying. |

Drivers that decide to overtake a queue of cars that are doing 40mph then as soon as they get in the overtaking lane proceed at 41mph meaning it takes an age for them to complete the overtake.
Meanwhile a queue of pissed off drivers forms up behind in both lanes because the idiot overtaker has effectively created a moving roadblock! |

Swapping out or changing out.
I used to work in radio/electronics and it is still my hobby. When I used to change a faulty part, I just changed it, or swapped it for a better one. Everyone now seems to say 'changed out' or 'swapped out'. Eg 'the volume control was noisy so I swapped it out'. Where has this come from (US usage?) and why? |

Fecking idiots being in positions of power. Like idiots who leave laptops full of peoples contact details in their car.
Should be fired straight away. I'm looking at you Staffordshire university. |

People who don't close their blinds or curtains properly and you can see light streaking through when you're walking past. Aaaargh!

People who describe intense pain as 'chronic'. It isn't, it's acute. A chronic condition is one that has lasted for a long time, from the Greek word 'chronos' - time. A chronic condition may or may not be extremely painful, but it will have lasted for a period of time.
So, if you are hit by sudden pain, and let's face it, we all are, it is 'acute' and not 'chronic'. Facetiousness aside, the words acute or chronic do not describe, in any way, the intensity of the pain so you are also incorrect by stating "it isn't, it's acute". How do you know whether or not it is acute? You're simply making an assumption that most people don't know what chronic means. I've only ever heard people use chronic correctly when taking a history. |

What i find worse, and im only ever a passenger so its probably worse for drivers, is when you are doing 60 and theres a bit of a queue so the idiot at the back overtakes everyone so he can then sit at the front doing 60

Drivers who crawl over speed bumps/sleeping policemen, especially when in a 4x4.

Screaming idiots on youtube. My bro likes watching them for some reason and has the volume on full blast. They can't just make a comment on a video game nope they have to scream and shout like demented people.
On the plus side I went somewhere for voluntary work today and they were so impressed by my portfolio that they've offered me a paid place. The manager/director was really nice,helpful and understanding so I'm happy with that. I wanted to let that out - I know it's positive but it can offset my usual moaning haha. |

The fact that a spacecraft can travel billions of miles and land on a comet doing nearly 40,000mph but Parcelfarce claim they couldn't find my workplace despite it being one of the best known places in town and a place where they do daily pick-ups from!

![]() The mid-size branded dry-roast peanuts disappeared ages ago, now I have to get a whacking great bag or Tesco own brand, which aren't as nice. |

Blue Christmas lights. All the rage recently, but my eyes just wont focus on them, they just look like fuzzy blobs. A most unpleasant feeling.
