Stupid little things that bug you

People who eat chocolate bars with the wrapper still on and just a little bit of the bar poking out of the top, pushing the bar up after every bite making a crumpling rustling sound all while munching away.

Bloody posers. And what an inefficient tool chopsticks are.

What kind of establishment is this?

It’s usually the other round (asking for a fork) in asian cuisine restaurants.
 
People walking slowly who have the ability to walk at a normal speed. Get a fucking move on.

Short men in three quarter length shorts, it just looks really bizarre and pisses me off.

People who talk about traveling extensively and being culturally diverse who’ve never actually left the resort at the country they stayed at.

People from London saying “up North” like we live in caves with no electricity.

Most of my colleagues who moan about sales targets being too hard but never make an outbound call.

Slags with prams thinking they have a right to push in queues, take over the pavement, cross the road on red and stop traffic.

Any young male who has a long beard, wears skinny jeans and thinks they’re original.

Surely it's their way of accepting we're above them ?

Cant stand showoffs who use chopsticks. Fine if its their regular cuttlery of choice, to be politicaly corect, but anyone else who uses them are showoffs and clearly eat asian cuisine far too often.

if you go to some Chinese restaurants you have no choice. I went to some in China town in London when i worked near there who didn't actually have knives + forks. If you wanted to use a knife and fork you needed to take your own.

Its where I learned to use them. the place was a proper bargain so it was worth fighting with chopsticks for a week to get the hang of them. Bargain meaning a full meal ( sweet and sour chicken + egg fried rice ) cheaper than a sandwhich.

I have just read once again in a post (om media thread) that so-and-so has to "tow" the line.
It enrages me (I know it shouldn't). I have railed against it on here time and again but people take no notice,
It's not a mere spelling mistake - anyone can do that. It's a misunderstanding of what the person is doing. You don't "tow" (i.e. pull) a line. You TOE it. You go so far but don't go beyond the (official) line - your TOES mustn't go over the forbidden mark.

That has made me think.
Firstly; guilty as charged on occasion.

Secondly; if you are trying to lose weight then eating more slowly is supposed to help. You may have inadvertently hit upon something here. New diet fad incoming; books, dvd's, online classes, YouTube channels; the works.

I'll let you have pretty much all the money.

Fame and glory await; I merely ask for a small monthly percentage of profit as a retainer due my facilitation of your inevitable rise to power.
