OllieNLucy Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Do you ever find little things annoy you? ill start..... It annoys me when i am standing at a traffic light waiting to cross and then somebody else comes up and presses the button! What do they think i was doing there lol, trying to turn the little man green with my eyes?! Also when i was at boarding school in the evenings when i had to help cook the staff used to say can you get that out the freezer and unthaw it please, surely unthawing something would be leaving it in the freezer?? What little things annoy you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 People finish your sentences and get it completely wrong! If they just finished listening they would have found out what I was planning to say. I have my mother in law and one friend that do this constantly!!!

Redwing Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 It annoys me when you are walking across a car park and someone wants to park in the exact space you are walking over even though the place is half empty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I try not to let things annoy me but it's only human nature to have niggles sometimes I s'pose okay, here's one of my bug bears... 'doom mongers' (as my DH puts it) annoy me. People who make negative comments ALL the time. You dread telling them things because you know they'll put a negative spin on it. They must be such unhappy people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 People who won't wait in a queue of traffic and either drive down the inside or outside lane and expect to be allowed in near the front . just go to the TPS web site, take seconds to fill in your details. Doesn't stop all calls but will stop most of them. If someone does cold call, immediately say "I'm registered with the TPS" and they'll get off the phone sharpish .

Egg Lou Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 People who won't wait in a queue of traffic and either drive down the inside or outside lane and expect to be allowed in near the front . Oh yes... hate this one!! Especially when its a truck or 4x4 that just barges in as they know you'll back down as smaller Delivery companies that always mess up the dates/times..and then blame it on a misunderstanding! Cold callers who make out you are already using their service. ie gas to get you to discuss further... Neighbours cats who just won't leave my garden alone.. either as a litter tray, lying on the cube run and making the hens shout loudly early in the morning or lying on my cars warm bonnet or soft top as nice and warm.. only to scratch the paint as they slide off! People in resturants, trains or office talking VERY loudly on their mobiles.. or leaving a loud any annoying ring tone going when they can't answer...

Chucky Mama Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 when... I am stupid enough to use one of those DIY checkout things at the supermarket. They never work and the member of staff that has to come over and help could have served everyone on a normal checkout in half the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
