Stupid little things that bug you

Chewing gum.

Serves no real purpose.

Tends to be found all over the pavements of the United Kingdom because people just spit it on the floor and walk away.

Seems to have become acceptable that chewing gum can be chewed with your mouth open at all times so you can see and hear everything about the whole chewing process.

Dundee is the chewing gum spattered capital of the UK. We went there some years ago and couldn't believe the amount of chewing gum on the pavements. In several places there was more chewing gum visible than there was pavement.

Strange phenomenon, never seen it in Australia come to think of it.
 
Driving my nephew home these past few nights, so many people out in the dark on these electric scooters without lights. Riding the scooter on the road, dressed in dark clothing, how the hell am I supposed to see you? Likewise cyclists without lights. I am a cyclist too, so I know all about riding about in the dark, yet I’m lit up like a Christmas tree. One night, someone is going to get seriously hurt or killed and I pity the poor car driver who will no doubt be on the receiving end of many a sleepless night, not to mention heaven knows what else. I just hope the driver isn’t me.

Get a dashcam. They bring a lot of peace of mind knowing youre being filmed being sensible around the madness.

‘What have you listened to at some point in the last 6 months’

Something about it just doesn’t quite work
 
Things like this. 100's of teenagers have this type of haircut but some headmaster decides you can't have it at his school.
It's neat and tidy haircut how the hell does it affect his education ?

Every young fella dresses and looks the exact same these days it's fucking ridiculous.

You see a group of lads all with the exact same hair cuts, same trainers, same tracksuit...Fucking twats.

Near me there is a spot with very poor visibility at dusk. A local quirk due to trees and poor street lighting which has no effect at dusk.Last year a teenager was killed crossing the road at that point. She was dressed in all black; I know because I came upon her lying in the road, just as the shaken driver was getting out of his car. A terrible scene. All black, not a point of lighter stuff on her.

The thread title is 'Stupid little things...' i.e. trivial everyday stuff that perhaps irritates you but not others. While your point is no less valid, how on earth is the potential for death and injury on the roads as a consequence of people's moronic behaviour a 'stupid little thing'?
My contribution to this thread is posters on BM who have missed the point of the thread title. Another might be annoying, pendantic twats like me who insist on posters taking to time to understand the meaning of a thread title!

Bus drivers , waiting for match bus yesterday normal bus pulls in as there is a few of us at the bus stop , driver opens his doors and is told there’s a young lady walking at pace about 30 yards away that’s wants to get on ,“she can get the next one” and drives off, miserably c**t.

There is nothing annoying about pedantic twats as we provide an educational service to forum members.
OK, perhaps we are a tad annoying, but we do provide that service.
