Stupid little things that bug you

[halfmist]

Drivers who haven't a clue how and when to use bus lanes

Or bus drivers who pull out of the bus lane to overtake other busses. STAY in your own lane

Burning your idex finger and thumb when retrieving crumpets that have popped up from the toaster but not quite high enough for you to fish them out safely..!

Tends to wake you up with a start when you're half asleep in the mornings..!


Should have opted for the cornflakes ffs..!

Finding the dregs of milk in the carton, when I make a brew. Makes the kettle, my piss and my blood boil.

Tradesmen. Why do they never answer the phone. Why do they say I will get back to you with a price and never do. Why do they pull a face if you try paying them in anything but cash.

I mentioned "off of" on here years ago and was told that it was perfectly fine because mick jagger said " hey hey you you get off of my cloud.

Mick Jagger is a Londoner who has made a career out of singing in a terrible Tennessee accent. I wouldn’t listen to owt he said!

On the telly, instead of saying "a round of applause" they say "give it up for" it gets my bloody goat.

God yes. What exactly am I giving up? My time? I'm here anyway. My 'applause'? That makes no sense.

Wankers.

Every weekend I do the ironing and have a box full of coat hangers to put stuff on when ironed. I always end up losing my rag big style trying to get a hanger out and they are all wrapped around each other. I’ll pull on one and get about five of the bastards!

"Give it up" was brought into placate Jeremy Beadle, when he had to put up with

"Let's give a big(ger) hand to"



Sorry

I hate the ‘hanger bubble’ you get at the shoulders when you hang your tops in the wardrobe.

“Counter-terrorism”... fucking counter-terrorism!

We used to say “anti-terrorism” but somewhere along the line some **** slipped “counter” in there instead to sound more American.

We don’t use “counter” as a preposition in this country. It sounds fucking stupid.

It’s anti-clockwise, anti-aircraft gun, antidote, anti-terrorism.

But now all you hear is “counter”. I give it five years and we’ll have “counter-clockwise” being used here!

“Season”... fucking season!

We used to say “series” but somewhere along the line some **** slipped “season” in there instead to sound more American.

I’ve got older DVDs that have “Series 1” “Series 2” “Series 3” on the front.

Now almost everywhere it’s “Season”.

To be fair, "trying to finish the current PL series" doesn't sound right!

I know I’ve already posted a laundry related issue but my wife leaving surf boards stuck to her knickers when she puts them in the dirty hamper is seriously grossing me out!

Mick Jagger prancing about like a student pisses me off. Nearly 60 years in the job and he hasn’t evolved one bit.

When “colourway” is used to describe the colour of trainers. There’s no need for the “way”; “colour” fine on its own!

Rob Brydon's impression of him is brilliant. Especially the clap!
