This might annoy Del Lardo as I think it is a perfectly rational annoyance but mandarins are the thing to irritate me most recently. I tend to buy a bag worth of orange citrus fruit a week but I never look at exactly which variant it is so I might pick up satsumas, tangerines, mandarins or whatever, this week it was Spanish mandarins - I've discovered that apparantly "mandarin" is Spanish for "pippy little bastard that you can't peel without losing your fingernails in the process and you'll get covered in juice" - who knew?

My question is why when we can grow whatever all year round, we can breed in or out selected traits, hell we can even clone sheep, why did someone think there was still a market for mandarins except for being purchased by the unwary? They aren't any tastier than any of the aforementioned fruits, they've got more pips than the Talking Clock, they're harder to peel so what benefit are they?

people that moan about facebook all the time, if it bothers you don't go on it.
Sorry if it offends anyone :/ but people who moan about their friends baby comments and how happy they are with their bf/gf. they want to share it with their friends whats wrong with that?
when you have kids you want to tell the world about every little thing they do, its natural.

people that push past you when they can clearly see you have a small child walking and a buggy.
People that don't say thanks when you open the door for them and then they dont hold it open so you can get through with a buggy arghhh. I held door open for you and your buggy so would it not be nice for you to do the same? its not difficult it really bugs me lol.

Umm penski leaving rude comments on my facebook status (only kidding) lol

Talking of mothers, one thing that really annoys me is mothers who push their child into a blind corner first across the road and wait in the middle of the lane they are crossing for cars to clear on the other side of the road.

Parents who scream at their kids to 'shut the **** up' when it's crying... Yeah, nice one. Shouting has been proven to be the best method to make your kid not get upset.

Mothers who take their clearly over weight baby/child to McDonalds for dinner all the time because they are too bloody lazy to cook. The amount of times McDonalds is packed out at 3.30pm from the moms on school run is embarassing.

Or those who think they have right of way on the pavement just cos they have a large pushchair. No, I have a gammy leg and I'm not going to leap out of your way, love. It's gonna hurt your kid more if my fat bum lands on it because you have knocked me over so learn to flipping steer.

Actually, large prams and pushchairs do annoy me. Our neighbours family have a really old fashioned pram, probably very expensive, but it's so heavy that the grandma can't lift it onto kerbs so they spend most of their time walking with it on the road :/ I have lost count of the amount of times I have nearly hit them coming round a blind corner, and I'm one of the people who drive slow round here because of the ridiculous speed bumps. I'm really surprised one of the 4x4s that tear around here hasn't taken them out yet :/ If I was going to have kids, I'd have the lightest pushchair I could so I could shove it out of the way when I needed to!
