Pet Hates

[GrumpyUK]

No I’m not talking about things that particularly irk your hamster (though that could be an interesting thread):

Doncha hate…

• Mobile phones with speakers on them that allow teenagers to play TERRIBLE music loudly on buses.
• Teenagers
• Buses
• James Blunt
• People who know more about Disboards than I do (they’re pretentious)
• People who know less about Disboards than I do (they’re fools)
• People who know as much about Disboards as I do (they’re too competitive)
• People who think that “alot” is a word
• People who are thinner than I am (it’s not fair)
• People who have more hair than I do (that’s REALLY not fair)
• Dido
• Not being able to fly Premium Economy or Upper Class every time I fly - at vastly reduced rates
• Not being able to stay in a lagoon view room at the Polynesian for under £100 (total) for 2 weeks
• Not having won a supertastic prize in the Year of a Million Dreams (that DVC points allocation is mine you hear, mine)
• People who say “aks” instead of ask
• People who are funnier than I am
• Su from the Sooty and Sweep Show (she’s WAY too smug - I don’t know why they hang out with her)
• Stoopid lists?………

Teenagers

After the lesson I had today with a couple of my students I completely agree with that!

 

[wilma-bride]

People who drive at 57 mph because someone once told them that they would get the most economical fuel consumption at that speed

and they always have hats on - why is this ?

 

[florida sun]

and they always have hats on - why is this ?

Because I get chilly with my air con on

Cant agree with the teenagers one, I was one once and I thought I was great

Ok here are mine:

People who overtake me, only to get no further than to stop at the next set of traffic lights!!

Buying a cheese and onion roll, only to find one slice of onion in it.

Ladies that wear White shoes with black tights.

People that put their bin bags out too early.

Drivers that stop in the middle of the road to have a chat with thier mates they see walking down the street, while Im driving behind them and cant pass.(Of course I have all day to wait)

Im sure there is more, I will have a think

 

[wilma-bride]

People who stop dead in the middle of the street right in front of you.

People who don't clean up after their dogs

The cheeky girls - why, why, why

 

[natalielongstaff]

people who eat loads and don't put on weight !! how fair is that

 

[BRobson]

Men that go shopping with us then spend the day standing outside the shops or 2 inches from your heels

 

[Lisash]

People who drive really slowly in front of you until they approach traffic lights then they put their foot down & run the lights leaving you to stop

 

[tony64]

Driver who sit in the middle lane of a motorway at 70 when the nearside lane is empty.

 

[mandymouse]

I'll tell you what drives me bonkers - people who call Walt Disney World, Disneyland - aaarrrggghhh !!!

 

[Minniespal]

Here are mine:-

Ladies that wear white shoes with black tights and denim skirts.

People that arrange a meeting, then turn up late and ask did I keep you waiting.

Disneyland instead of Wlat Disney World.

Drivers who sit at a roundabout for ages and decide to move just as you do.

People who decide to chat in supermarket isles and look at you as though you are dirt when you ask to move past them.

People who are still talking on mobile telephone despite the ban.

Yummy looking new KFC just as you start your diet.

 

[jen_uk]

I'll tell you what drives me bonkers - people who call Walt Disney World, Disneyland - aaarrrggghhh !!!

Especially on TV or in the press when they should really do their research and know better!

People who answer their phones in the cinema and then have a loud chat!

People who get to the front of the queue at the supermarket and then looked stunned that they have to pay and spend 10 mins looking for their money.

Shop assistants who start scanning the next persons shopping whilst you are still trying to pack away yours.

 

[mark&sue]

I agree to all of these apart from the hair one as I am an 80s throwback with big hair!!!

Funny though I was looking for white boots to go with my black Jeans this week. Perhaps I was lucky that boots are out of the shops and bikinis are in as these are your pet hates.

Keep them coming.

[carolfoy]

the fact that waxing your bikini line really hurts and men don't bother!

people who say Pacific instead of Specific!

people who tell you 'you really should dothat/go there you'd love it' when they barely know you!

people who whinge their train was late when they only book 2 sodding train tickets a year and the poor guy with the completely rescheduled round the world doesn't even grumble!

people who think travel agents get their holidays for nothing and get pissed at you because you haven't stayed at every hotel in the costa del wherever!

[jillrobinson]

Easter and the fact that it never arrives on time
I spend my day making appointments and at this time of year all I get is "Easter's early this year" or "Easter's late this year"

Dentist's who say "There's no such thing as teething!"

Mobile phones - full stop! Don't even get me started.

People who say "Do you ski" and then proceed to tell you why you should, I don't want to try it, I've never wanted to try it and I never will want to try it, honest.

 

[JohnnySharp2]

Bad drivers, whether on motorway or general roads, especially people who get too close to your back bumper.

Cyclists who don't have lights on their bikes in the dark

Kid's who play football in the street when there is a playing field nearby

Parent's of kids who let them run wild, it's like they ain't under my feet so they can bother someone else!

Certain Reality shows, just too many of them now it's getting silly and really don't like Big Brother at all.

Unreliable tradesman ( I know there are many good one's too), it's like they either don't want the business or it's too small a job - I have rung a Landscape Gardener up 3 times recently, spoke to his wife twice and still never got a call back, wouldn't mind but they put an advert through my door!

CMs (a minority) who don't understand that you have a disabled child and make stupid comments like "he is a bit too big for that wheelchair", or "why is he asleep" or "he shouldn't use a stroller he should be walking".....

People who eat Garlic and then smell of it the next morning.

Patrick Kielty/Russell Brand - can't stand them

and finally the controversial one (come on I have to mention it), smiley's, now I do not actually hate smiley's (although many people think I do) but it's the post's where there are one's whether dancing or not every few words or after every sentence I don't get...just makes the post unreadable.
cue some dancing bananas?

Feel much better now!

 

[Laurafoster]

People who sit in the middle lane of a motorway when there is no traffic and then look angrily at you when you over take!!

When men take women shopping and say things like "do you really need another pair of shoes" - of course i do!

People (mainly celebs) who have blatently had some cosmetic surgery and then spend the next few years denying it! Come on if there really was some miracle bra and miracle face cream wouldnt we all be buying it!

People that say to me - Oh your going to Disneyland again are you? why dont you go somewhere else for a change? - Firstly its Walt Disney World not Disneyland and second 99% of the people that say that - have never been there!!

 

[saratogagirl]

people at work who use the last of the milk and then leave the dirty bottle on the work surface
people at work who are too stressed or busy to wash their coffee cup so leave it dirty in the sink
people at work who are too tired to put the door stop under the door in the mornings, perhaps they have a bad back and cant bend
people at work who tell me I have no social life
people at work who wear overpowering perfume that gives me a headache
people at work who sniff - get a tissue
people at work who chomp on their cereal and slurp at their coffee

Can you tell I'm having a bad day and its only 8.50, oh the joys of life in car care
