People who say/write 'pacifically' instead of specifically. Specifically it's grammatically incorrect, specifically it makes no literally sense, specifically it makes you sound like a fecking idiot.

People who don't flush the toilet. Gross, I'm thinking of inventing a contraption that's in the bathroom door. It senses if someone hasn't bothered flushing the toilet and a boxing glove will then pop out of the door and punch the person in the face as they reach for the door handle.

When bus drivers take over from each other. It's one thing it taking an age but apart from a brief inspection of the seats, I don't see any reason why the waiting passengers can't sit on the bus instead of watching the drivers seemingly discuss the previous night's football.

The lack of harmony between the placement of benches and the open spaces in my city. All the benches seem to be on the edge of a road. It's an epic journey to find somewhere to take a call you'd prefer to take privately that won't be interrupted by A) the noise of other people and B) passing traffic.

Posters on here who make up stories for their threads and when other posters mention they think it's B.S the OP get's all self-righteous and defensive.

Quote:
“The architect Sir Edmund Beckett, 1st Baron Grimthorpe (1816-1905) designed the clock mechanism for Big Ben and gave the language the verb 'to grimthorpe,' meaning to ruin an ancient building by 'restoring' it.

He was also said to be the finest locksmith in England. He got so fed up with visitors failing to flush after using his loo that he had a special lock fitted on the door so it could only be opened after the chain had been pulled. You don't flush, you can't get out.”

Because if anything is wrong then they have to get them all off again? The new driver also has his own 'float of money' so the previous driver letting them on while the next one checked the bus would mess up the days takings as the wrong driver would have them for the start of that route

I'd like Sir Edmund Beckett to wake from the dead and install a special lock in my bathroom.

What used to annoy me more was when I was round friends houses and noticed they'd left the big price sticker on the cover. (Used to happen more when most people bought their DVDs / VHSs from HMV or Virgin)

People who leave all kinds of crap in their shopping trolley after they've finished with it. Shopping lists, un-used plastic bags, discarded packaging, half-eaten Sausage Rolls...... the list is endless. Growlz.

People who have a new "bae" every few months. "OMG this girl is so amazing, this guy is so hot," then they stop hooking up or flirting and it's quiet for a few weeks before "omg this new person is so amazing"

Shut the hell up. I don't care.

People that swear all the time when they talk. Not necessary. Just sounds vulgar and common IMO

Or people that flush the toilet without first closing the lid. How unhygienic?!

When you clear snow from your car, yet as soon as you open the door it still gets all over the driver's seat.

One of my pet peeves too and if you complain they say things like "Don't tell me you haven't heard them all before". That's not the point.

Exactly. The point is it just sounds awful. Just speak nicely!

i think they mean beau ? A male companion or friend with whom one has a sexual or romantic relationship . 2. A dandy; a fop. [French, from beau, bel, handsome, from Latin bellus

rench for beautiful, also used for lover and boyfriend. Pronounced "BO", not " BOO". Me and my beau went out last night and had a fabulous time! by bookbeau ...

i paste and copied from google

Just for you, I asked my 15-year-old and 16-year-old for an explanation on 'bae' (they're still laughing at my ignorance). According to them:

It's an endearment. You use it in the way you say other terms of endearment including love, sweetie, beloved, baby, babe, etc. It's used on non-related people you really like or feel close to. Boyfriend/girlfriend, best friend, close friend, etc. "I'm hoping to see my bae tonight" and "Hi, bae".

It also can be used to describe something or someone that's so good or cool that it needs to be worshipped. "You have to check out that bae book/girl/dress/film/whatnot."

I think it's an idiotic word. That's all.

Thank you - I think! So it means everything and nothing, basically?
