Stupid little things that bug you

Visited my local Tesco this morning, just by the entrance there are a a few bays clearly marked "Set down and Drop off only". All bays were occupied and all cars empty & locked. A woman came out with a trolley full of shopping and unloaded into the car.
I cannot abide these self-entitled people who get away with such selfish behaviour because the car park staff are too timid to admonish them.
 
The inappropriate use of the word amazing. It’s not amazing that I’ll be in Tuesday or amazing that that my gas meter is in a cupboard outside or amazing you can park outside my house. Some fleas can jump over 200 times their own body length, that’s amazing.

Went into Morrisons yesterday and there were a whole bunch of people playing ukeleles in the lobby like demented George Formby impersonators.

A crime against humanity. I could not quite take it in, but it got right on my tits.

Quite right. I read reviews on Trip Adviser about pubs or hotels and find that "the chips wwere amazing" or "the staff were amazing", or even "the bread was amazing".
I have never been amazed by a chip or some bread in my life.
For some reason, it is used o mean "very good", which is a total misuse of the word.

Totally agree, what's wrong with just saying everything is awesome. ;)
