My neighbours
Car drivers not indicating when turning while I'm waiting to cross - I'm not flipping psychic you know
Snooty unhelpful receptionists (yes you at the doctors)
Jobsworths
The anti Arsenal bias of the media
The toilet roll thing
Camomile tea
Going to the supermarket and then discovering I don't have a pound for the trolley
And hundreds more
*goes to make a nice calming camomile tea* Wait, I forgot I hate that

The dropped h's and haitch thing still drives me mad, after nearly 29 years of marriage to a man who does both. Add "was we/we was" to the list.
People who use the last of the toilet roll and don't replace it.
Shop assistants who sigh and roll their eyes when you ask for help. The clue is in your job title, you unhelpful git!!
People who never say please or thank you.
Next doors teenager, who constantly plays basketball and is forever putting the ball into my garden. If he breaks my new greenhouse, I might have to keeeeel him.
I could go on.....and on.

What's your preferred weapon of choice, Veggie?
whistlers
the people on the tills that keep pressing the converyor belt whilst you have your basket on there so you cant grab it to empty it
spitters
old folk that tell you off for nothing and won't let it go
people that leave empty cartons in the fridge/cupboard
people that leave the pegs on the line

Something slow and incredibly painful please Reference:
I hate the phrase "Almost exactly" Eg. "It is almost exactly a year since blah blah" FFS it's either one or the other. Either say "almost a year since" or (if historically accurate) "Exactly a year since".
Oh yes. And 'literally'.
"Omigod, I literally, like, exploded when he said that, and.."
Really? Well clear the bliddy mess up, then.
I also have a pathological hatred of those all-in-one tops that pretend to be a tank top with a blouse underneath. Tackaaaayy
Reference:
Drivers doing 70 in the fast lane. Feck off and get in the middle ffs this aint a bleedin funeral procession.
Is the max speed limit in England not 70mph?
I can't abide Cheryl Cole either, she is a talentless little airhead who wouldn't have gotten half the amount of promotion work had Cashley not cheated on her!! The reports on the news that she has been in ICU for a week as well are rubbish, gawd I can't stand her.

Yes, it is.
Why did Karma say that people who do 70mph shouldn't be in the fast lane?I'm confused!!

'Cos she wants to go faster?
There's no such thing as 'the fast lane' anyway. They're all meant to be used for overtaking and manoeuvring, not hogging or breaking the land speed record.
Ah I see. One of my pet hates is when you are doing the max speed limit and people drive right up your arse as if you shouldn't be on the road.

Because nobody drives on the motorway at 70mph...you'd be in a permanent lorry sandwich if you didReference:

Now what gets my goat?
The toilet roll thing
Men who leave the seat up
Bank station between 5 and 7pm
Expensive car parks
Messy sinks
Christine Bleakley
there must be loads of other things,

people who hover next to me in the supermarket squeezing a crinkly cellophane package
Women who walk behind me in noisy clacky high heels.
People who walk and talk on mobile phones, and NEVER look where they're going.
Cyclists who think red lights at crossings don't apply to them.
People who drive at 65mph in the middle lane of the motorway, and stay there!
Forcing those of us who don't want to go over 70, to have to brave the outside lane and have Karma on our arse!

People who don't cover their mouth when they cough
People who don't use tissues when they sneeze - didn't your mammy ever tuck one in your sleeve cuff as a child?
People who say "You guys" I'm a laydeee innit
Cars that run red lights when I'm crossing
I'm sure there's more

Not understanding what the heck drivers are talking about
A recent phenomenon - groups of teenage girls who walk around town screaming. They need birching - that'd give 'em something to scream about.

my biggest one at the moment is people *they mainly happen to be youngsters* who walk down a narrow pavement chatting and expect me to walk in the road if I'm coming the other way as they've never heard of single file
I hate it when people say "You have two choices"...you have 'A choice' (2 options), surely two choices means you have 4 options????
I forgot about the two-wheeled lycra louts
My biggest pet hate/ annoyance is by far whistling!!
Not a quick wolf whistle but the tuneless trilling nonsense tunes that folks do whilst stood behind you or sat on the bus etc...why would anybody think I want to listen to it???? It grates on my nerves so much that I honestly want to cry sometimes, lol...
...after I re-met the OH again after I hadn't seen him for 10 years, the first thing he asked me was "Do you still hate whistling"...lol....

Ooh how could I have forgotten people with no spacial awareness. It's one of my mantras (as my sons will tell you) Not just on pavements but in supermarkets etc.I rant about them then usually finish with the phrase; "Can you imagine what they're like when they're driving"
People who say 'Oction' instead of 'Auction@...mainly David Dickinson
Him indoors leaving one sheet of toilet roll on the roll and pretending he's not noticed because he's too bone-idle to change it
Drivers who do not seem to have indicators in their fecking cars
The Man in the Office upstairs, he's a right pillock
When you get a missed call and ring back within seconds & the other person doesn't pick up! They wanted you for something in the first place, how far can they have got from their phone in such a short space of time????
There are many more but my blood pressure is rising already

I sympathise Amythist I used to work in a Supermarket many years ago. There was this fella (looked like Gipetto from Pinnichio)....he was proud as punch of his stupid, annoying whistle, he'd won stupid competitions for whistling classic music or something and he used to come right up behind me and trill really loud in my fecking ear, thinking he was amusing...his cheeks would puff in and out while he did it as well Even thinking about the old fool grates on my nerves
He was the Landlord of one of the Pubs up over the tops (Moors), I walked in one day, saw him and walked straight back out...irritating and ignorant man he was....

So everytime some fool starts whistling it just brings it all back! Dont think I know Belmont.....and Im not going there now I know he might pop up whistling some concerto
