People who say 'peeps'
People who don't indicate or don't give way
When I have to repeat myself because people don't listen
When my mother asks me for advice on things I have no idea about and then tells me I'm being 'unhelpful' just because I don't have an answer
People who take ages at cash machines and self service checkouts

People who call their children 'smallies'.
People who sit beside you on the bus reeking of stale cigarettes.
People who drive with no courtesy and have the cheek to display a 'baby on board' sticker in their rear window.

todays weather as its warm and windy..too windy infact..my hair is blown everywhere today

All of the above

Now be honest, you didn't expect Everest to be doing that today, did you?

Fair enough, I didn't realise it at first, either. I only asked because my post was originally a reply to someone who'd posted in this thread back in '08.

Looked a bit silly.

I saw a tweet the other day along the lines of 'the man next to me smells so bad I've ripped my chewing gum in half and shoved it up my nose'

Just spotted this 4 year old thread in today's postings whilst searching for 'Fly-Tipping'. One of my pet hates, not always 'trivial', is being added daily at:

Cafe's, pub meals and restaurants serving toast and baked potatoes with one or two (if you are lucky) tiny rock hard wrapped up squares of butter. It's not enough.
Then there are the mayo/tomato sauce/brown sauce/vinegar sachets.
You need about five to get enough to make a difference on your meal and by the time you have managed to open them all your meal is cold.

my brother does this all the time :sleep:

Callers such as the paperboy/girl, post person, flyer-poster and couriers who leave my gate open when leaving my property.

Men who think silence is audible over the phone.

yep. Same as people who don't press the lift button. Maybe I'm just hyper and always end up doing it first cos others are inept .

getting others people's letters in the post. when they haven't lived there in years and also when the postman can't be bothered to read the name on the door or walk down to the basement flat. It's illegal to throw away someone's post isn't it. Well, too late.

people who drive too slow. Grrrrrr.

This sudden trend on british tv shows of calling the police "the feds". Since when in the UK have we referred to the police as feds? I've heard the term used in a few soaps recently.

Tv presenters who insist on emphasising words which end in "y" by pronouncing it as "eeeee". For example the worst one is "proper-TEA" instead of "property" and there's an advert where they insist on pronouncing "pharmacy" and "pharm-a-SEE".

The tube......when people get to the barrier and start fumbling for their ticket, then everybody behind kind of canons off them and then has to wait until they find the damned thing, meanwhile they've had the whole bloody journey to sort it out!!!

Females chewing gum. Absolutely disgusting, vile habit. Very unlady-like

Looking forward to watching a DVD and finding you have to wade through pages of language options (I'm certain most of them are just made up) because instead of English our langauge is UK.

Then you get the annoying ad about piracy - I KNOW! THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT THE BLOODY THING!

So finally you get settled, movie starts and the phone rings and it's some Indian bloke called Jeremy who works for Microsoft calling to say I've got a computer virus!!!

That just sums up the last 15 minutes!

That reminds me that I find it annoying when the English language option has an American flag next to it!

Mine is the opposite . Really hate it when I buy a dvd and there are no subtitles. So you think "ok" and put it on and the sound mix is really muffled and you can hear **** all

This should would be better in a thread called 'Trivial excuses for brutal murder' , but there isn't one, so this will have have to do

People who add '.com' on to the end of words for apparent 'emphasis'.

When driving; people who don't indicate on roundabouts and people who drive ridiculously slow.

When working; customers who instead of asking you for help decide to shout out their dissatisfaction at the store not having what they're looking for to their friend.

At home; when someone leaves empty packets of food, eg a multipack of crisps in the cupboard instead of throwing it in the bin.

When out and about; when in busy spaces and people walk at snail pace or stop suddenly infront of you.

The 'trivial thing' that really annoys me is on TV at this very moment, that awful woman with the even more awful accent (whichever one she puts on for different events) - Jane Horrocks.

people who only quote part of a post you make on DS and then reply to what they've edited rather than what you said and make you look like an idiot.
