Random and pointless things which still annoy you. 19:30 - Feb 25 with 37077 viewsMattinLondon

Just been to Sainsburys where a man grabbed a sandwich and a can of coke and devoured both before going to the tills and paying for both.

For some reason this annoys me despite it having absolutely no relevance to me at all.

Just wondered if anything else pointlessly annoys other posters?

Whistling.
Out of date adverts, usually in pubs or convenience stores. It was Halloween months ago, take down the poster. One shop here had their beer promotion banner for Rugby WC 2015 up for 18 months.
Cling film.

Canned music in shops/supermarkets. Esp *canned Christmas music on a ****ing loop from 30th November onwards* Not just for shoppers, how on earth do shop staff stand it without going insane?

Random and pointless things which still annoy you. on 12:04 - Feb 27 by Lord_Lucan

Lady Lucan once couldn't face a long trek up the stairs to the loo in a pub and went to the bar to ask for the disabled key as it was downstairs. She told the barwoman she had MS. As it happens the barwomens sister had MS and started to chit chat about the condition and asking how Lady Lucan was coping etc.

That'll teach her I thought!


That's brilliant!

Poor old Lady Lucan!! HA!

Yes I do care. It's a thread about things that annoy you. This annoys me.

It's not a space for her to use. You don't get to exercise common sense badly.

Common sense dictates it's 3pm on a Wednesday and there are spaces everywhere so you're even more of a lazy, selfish idiot if you park in a parent and child space. Absolutely no need for it.

You're analogy makes no sense. If the men's toilet is not in use then you cannot use it. She's not failing to use a normal space because they are all taken. She's deciding not too because she can't be bothered. Massive difference.

Posters suggesting a truce to an online ding dong which I'd been finding quite amusing.

Number 5 - see also people who hang around outside court rooms protesting the innocence of [insert celebrity here] despite them almost certainly never having actually met them and having no idea on the finer points of the case and evidence


Did you see the White House Farm (Jeremy Bamber) drama recently on ITV?

He still has a whole fan club on social media still protesting his innocence, who appear unable or unwilling to scrutinise the huge weight of evidence against him, preferring instead to incessantly point up a detail here or there which appeal court & CCRC have already rejected.

Great show.

My missus' old house was used as the family's terraced home. She used to have the kids' bunk bed room.

Yes, the one used for filming. They booked it out for a month last year and kicked the tenants out to a hotel. It was a really quirky house in East London so I can see why they chose it.

Looked nice inside actually.

The recent BBC1 drama on Profumo featured a house I'd once stayed in for a few weeks when the ex & myself were renovating our London flat. It belonged to ex's friends, was used as Stephen Ward's mews house (the one with the black garage doors) for the filming.

Is that the Trial of Christine Keeler? The lead, Sophie Cookson, grew up in Woodbridge.

Yes, sorry had forgotten title.

Oh right, didn't know that. She was superb, as were James Norton (Ward) and Ben Miles (Profumo).

"Should've" becoming "should of" does me in.

Nobody corrects it either. Nobody.

I have a problem with the word 'rather' as in 'that was rather nice'.

It sounds like a vicar praising a cake at a village tea party.

I am not too keen on the word 'participants'-I can't remember why.

Traffic lights not applying to cyclists. Zebra crossings not applying to cyclists.

People who don't put one of those shopping divider things behind their shop at the checkout, despite the fact the nearest one is next to the checkout and I have to lean across all the cr4p they're buying to get it myself.

Actually, just other people in supermarkets.
