Stupid little things that bug you

[Bri1975]

People who litter. You're a scruffy **** and I often send my dashcam videos to the police when cars in front do it. Nearly got a windscreen full of empty McDonalds yesterday

Do they follow up and fine them ?

Apparently they do. Whether that's true or not, who knows. Makes me feel like I'm doing my bit. Absolutely disgusts me. The amount of wildlife litter kills is abysmal.

Vernon Kay is too much of a pretty boy for me. Give me Paddy McGuiness any day of the week.

Oh heavens, no;)

He’s one of the ‘ smashy and nicey ‘era type DJ /presenter. Never shuts up and is clearly a self obsessed tosser . Truly irritating . Surprised he can drag himself away from the mirror to make it to the studio.

I don't mind them having leaf blowers, it's when they blow them into the street instead of picking them up.
Do they think the leaves have learnt their lesson and won't come back in a hurry, not into that nasty garden anyway ?

Sorry, Kay of course.

Market stalls holders.

We have a Market in the towns pedestrian area from 10am till 3pm.

The stall holders block the roads from 7am causing gridlock in the town. These trades think they have the right to block the roads to unload and load their vans. They dont its still a public highway till 10am.

The holders are very aggressive to car drivers lol. Yet its a public roads till 10am when the 10am closure comes into effect and the roads are closed off.

Had an argument today with a holder telling me its a 5mph road and I should have my hazards on because the market is setting up !.
It's a 30mph road and the market stalls holders can not block the roads and should park at the side of the road.

As someone who works for the council i know the 'rules'. It's a public 30mph highway till 10am. Now if the market wants to apply for a road closure from 7am till 6pm there's nothing stopping them. But they haven't, even after 10am delivery vehicles are still allowed into the pedestrian area !

Plus who buys knock off Fred perry polo shirts for 30quid ! Or any other tatt they sell ?

In the picture one van is blocking the road and the pick up is going the wrong way down a one way street !

Send them to the council where the littering happened. They can issue a fixed penalty to registered keeper, but some may want a statement from you. Don’t think the police will do anything, unless they pass on to the council.

My Cats table manners.

Little fucker brought a Rat the size of a Xmas Turkey in through the window and dumped it in the hallway as proud as punch.

I wish he wouldn't bring his work home with him, I don't want your shit in my house mate.

These are my at-work bugs:

- People commenting on what I'm eating for my lunch.

"What you got there?"
"Tuna Salad."
"Urgh, I don't like Tuna!"
"I didn't ask, or offer you any. Why are you telling me?"

- People not know when to end a 'joke'. Someone once offered me some crisps and I said "No thanks, trying to be a bit healthier!"

Now, every time I treat myself to a bar of chocolate or a doughnut they're like, "Oh, well THAT isn't very healthy! Is your health kick over now?" It was like 6 months ago they offered me those crisps.

- People telling me the weather first thing every morning. I cycle to work FFS - I know better than anybody that it's "cold out there".

We have a cat named Bessie. Female, obviously. Got an e-mail today from "Chewy" (the pet food supplier we use) saying "we wish Bessie a great day on their birthday" THEIR birthday, FFS? We're using gender neutral pronouns for cats now? Madness.

Just easier from a programming perspective. You just know if someone’s entered the sex wrong on their database and they send an email to a male cat saying “her” someone will kick up a fuss.

The thing is though, using “their” has always been acceptable English in this context. I bet you use the phrase “they should have known better” when referring to an individual all the time but it’s the same concept and isn’t something related to gender identity at all.

These are the same people who moan that the council don't do enough to clean up.
