Stupid little things that bug you

News channels that have tickers or banner headlines with factual, grammatical or spelling errors.

All of them do it and the latest was Sky News this morning informing us that Istanbul is the capital of Turkey.

The BBC used to have a two strikes and you're out policy with this sort of stuff but that's gone by the board long ago.

Lazy arses who park on double yellow lines rather than park legally and make use of their legs

Must be good drivers to park on two lines.

That people are allowed to vape in the office at work.

Parents who post pics on social media of their kids in uniform holding up signs showing "Year x". Nobody cares! And for that reason, I'm going nowhere near Arsebook tomorrow.

And like clockwork, my younger sister has done this today with my nephew & niece. AAAAGH!

Why do people with disabled parking get to park for free? Offering them the most convenient places to park is fine, but why free? I'm quite sure a lot of them receive or earn more than my miserable pension.

Whenever we have a bit of hot weather the media’s obsession with telling us which parts of the world we are going to be hotter than

I agree, but then I go and tell all those who go to Egypt and Turkey in the Spring and Autumn and tell me that it was 40 degrees when it’s been 14 or so here, so really I don’t give a monkey’s;)

You begrudge disabled people being able to park for free now ? Disabled is the clue so most not able to work and benefits are not as great as the daily fail would have you believe, christ sake

My drive to and from work takes twice as long now the kids are back at school

Not surprised it annoys you - surprised its allowed as well

Why is that I’m no expert but I’m pretty sure that there is toxic chemicals in that cloud ?

It's not illegal in UK. You to the company to decide policy.

All over LinkedIn, usually a picture of two kids holding hands walking into the distance or a kid up against the wall like a police mugshot.

Car ads on the telly that proclaim "car shown not to UK spec". Are you seriously telling me that car companies couldn't afford to film different ads for specific markets?

I've seen the same car ads here and overseas with the image reversed so the car is being driven on the left side of the road here and the right side abroad. A giveaway is often the generic number plate that has only letters and numbers that read the same whichever version of the film is used. (e.g. ATH 108/801 HTA).

Bus lanes
Thinking more the fact that black cabs are allowed in them but not private hire , both are doing the same job !

Famous people who act like they want you to believe they lead normal lives like the rest of us, then you see them at Events on TV in the Royal Box or VIP lounge.

Ignoramuses on TV and in the press, who should know better, stating the Bahamas are in the Caribbean. No they're not. No part of their coastline is on the Caribbean. They're entirely in the Atlantic. It's as daft as saying the Canary Islands or Portugal are in the Medterranean.
