Stupid little things that bug you

When advertisers speed up the end of a radio advert to a point where it is near impossible to understand the T&C's. It is even more ridiculous that the Advertising Standard Agency insist on these rules but think it's OK that no one can actually hear them.
That's always made me mad. the speed should be the same at least as the legal bollocks is what will cause you the pain when you can't pay the money.
 
'Let me give you a piece of advice'. No, fuck off. If I wanted advice I would ask for it. Can't stand know it all's. Patronising gits who think they know the lot when in reality they know sweet FA about anything.
 
The way Americans pronounce 'suggest'.
'sug jest'.
Oh, and 'aluminium'.
'aloooomminumium'.
The way Americans speak in general. They cant all have lisps, so why can they pronounce the letter S properly? Case in point, watch Christian Bale or that day walker from Homeland and Band of Brothers do an American accents. Its coached into them, because they all do it. Just say sausages properly without spraying the word out of your front teeth!
 
When people refer unironically and uncomedically to their pets as their children, and/or consider the pet to be the sibling of their actual children.
Truly hateful.
I witnessed a conversation where a couple of pretentious dog owners were discussing the breeds they were walking.
"Yes, mine's a labradoodle you know."

"Oh really. Well he's a cockapoo."

They are mongrels ffs.

I don't mind people jokingly calling the dog their kid. But when people are serious I am so mad. I hear in some places the Fire Brigade are asking their guys to double check if someone says "My baby is in there" that they mean an actual human child. A guy nearly drowned diving in to a car during severe floods to save a "baby" that turned out to be the woman's pet dog.

Seriously, I can't stand it when people say the dog is the 'brother' of the kids. It is stupid.
