Stupid little things that bug you

People who constantly use hazard lights to stop wherever they want for any insignificant reason.
They're 'park anywhere you like' lights even if it's on double yellows, a pedestrian crossing, across some poor sod's driveway or garage access or at the entrance to a hospital. Alternatively they're 'I'll cause an obstruction and block traffic so I can stop right outside Greggs and pick up a pasty' lights. At least that's what all those selfish gets must think.
 
A mate of mine is from Bristol, and he never understood the Manchester use of words in sentences and used to laugh at me all the time for me adding words in when they’re not needed:
“These ones” and “those ones”
“I love that me” and “I don’t like that me”

And for omitting words when they should be there:
“I’m going shop” and “I’m going pub”
Ask him why Bristolians add a stupid 'L' on words that don't have them. Examples: he lives in a nice areal, and from older times, I've bought a new Ford Sierral
 
When you go on a website and click on the bit you want only for the page to move as more content loads, and you end up opening an advert or something else. I'm sure they are programmed to do this on purpose.
Damned annoying, especially when you are trying to watch a City match on a foreign TV stream.
 
Americanisms…
The worst is people who say “From the get go”
Uptick is another that grinds my gears. It won't be long before the next Americanism buzzword reaches us. On discussion programmes from the US someone often says "There's a lot to unpack here" meaning there's a lot of aspects of the subject to discuss. You've all been warned.

People who use the phrase “grinds my gears” before telling everyone else what they shouldn’t be saying.
 
People who abuse Helen Worth (Gail Platt) off Coronation Street On here.
I don’t know why you do it, although I accept she wasn’t everybody cup of tea, she was still attractive.

The abuse that Luke Shaw gets on here for being overweight. Mention his name and it is also followed with Greggs or pies. He is not overweight, he plays for an odious club I grant you but their must be some serious alpha male bodies on here to slate him about his physique.

Give him grief for being a rag by all means but for his weight, nah.
Rag.
