In My Name Is Earl, Earl has a list of people he has wronged and it committed to righting these wrongs, assisted by his big dumb brother Randy....Now, I am compiling a list of things that really annoy me that need to be stopped. I am assisted by Ellie my dappy daughter. So...My Name is Rach starts here. Please feel free to add to my list!

 

The List So Far (things that need to stop)

 

Children that are old enough to walk being pushed around in pushchairs - (I have seen parents pushing their school age children to school in puschairs!! )

 

People using the word generally instead of genuinely

 

People driving straight over mini roundabouts (OH made me put this one in but is actually doesn't bother me )

 

Texting whilst driving

 

Shopping trollies that don't steer

 

Volume going up during TV adverts

 

Being offered store cards when shopping and then assitants being rude to you when you decline

 

People that say pacific instead of specific

 

Parent who let little children scream all the way through the school play or church service

 

Plastic on cucumbers

 

TV newsreaders that say hyperthermia instead of HYPOTHERMIA (hyperthermia =hot, hypo=cold) during reports of things like sea rescues

people who don't say thank you when you open a door for them, step aside to let them through or when you're in the car and let an oncoming car come through

 

cold callers at the door or on the phone who take offence when you aren't interested in what they are selling.....I didn't invite them to call......so don't call

[Space Chick]

People who say "Should of" instead of "Should HAVE".

 

People who use "Absolutely" as a solo word at every opportunity.

 

That's my start...

[Redwing]

People who say 'basically' before they tell a fib or admit they don't know the answer to what you are asking

 

I drive straight over mini roundabouts I count myself as told and will cease immediately

[Chucky Mama]

Cold callers who ask you to verify who you are. "It's my phone and you phoned me so why do I need to prove who I am?"

[Rona]

Arrogant drivers in general, especially those who just have to overtake when it isn't safe to do so even although there are about another 20 cars in front of me.

Cold callers who ask you to verify who you are. "It's my phone and you phoned me so why do I need to prove who I am?"

[theherd123]

Folks who use their mobile whilst driving - i just keep my hand on the horn until i get their attention!

 

People who push their babies around the shops in car seats - they were designed for the CAR!! (I wouldnt want their childs back problems in years to come!)

 

Weeds. I hate weeding so weeds just need to stop growing in my garden - NOW!

 

That will do for now, im sure i'll be back later

[Chucky Mama]

..the big fat wood pigeons who steal my chicken food and have had the audacity to hatch 2 squeakers in my honeysuckle ..MORE fat wood pigeons!

 

...packaging that states no artificial colouring or flavouring but is packed full of artificial sweeteners instead!

 

..only having a medium and large as a size option when all you need is a small

 

...whatever size school trousers you need in M & S they have every size BUT them.

 

...people who get up to get food and drink as soon as the movie starts at the cinema

I drive over mini roundabouts and don't care. Hope I annoy the people who never give way and are totally selfish and ungrateful.

...the plastic on dishwasher tablets

 

 

On some Finish dishwasher tablets that are shrink wrapped in clear plastic you can put the whole thing into the dishwasher and the covering disolves too

[chickencam]

On the subject of parking I hate people who park around the edges of car parks blocking them up. If there are no spaces that means there are no spaces

[Chucky Mama]

On some Finish dishwasher tablets that are shrink wrapped in clear plastic you can put the whole thing into the dishwasher and the covering disolves too
