Irrational things that annoy you (and non irrational things too come to think of it)

^also, and sorry but it is usually women, people who sit hunched over the steering wheel, so close they can't turn the wheel properly without leaning away from it. So dangerous &.unnecessary! RELAX!

Cats that come up to you, stretch, and then sit just too far away to stroke... why walk all the way across the room to plonk yourself out of reach?! Stupid ****ing creature.

Similarly, those who don't understand that they're not in the middle of the car but drive as if they are, with the left side of the car dragging through gutters, hedges, the wing mirrors of parked cars... Position yourself bodily to the right of the centre of the lane!

How can an automated announcement be sorry?

Are the machines becoming self-aware?

Aaarrrggghh, Judgement Day is coming!

Like buses that say "sorry im not in service"

Why is the bus sorry? Does it have emotions suddenly?

Further to my "Mum to Be on board" signs in cars...

"Westie on Board"

Are you ****ing kidding me?!?! Why would I give a **** that you have a dog in your car, let alone a ****ing Westie!!!!

I blame my hormones.

Not irrational but the rant will do me good!

Being let down by a good friend. She's always been hideously unreliable (been friends 20 odd years) but she's really done it this time.

Meant to meet up for the day on Saturday for a late Birthday type thing. Just got a text saying:
'Is it ok if we meet up another day? My friends are going to x (event nearby) on Saturday and I quite fancy going!''

So basically she's had a better offer and didn't have the decency to apologise or even call me instead of text :/
She's a junior doctor so I did well enough to pin her down to that date. Who knows when we'll manage to meet up next (not seen her since May!). Meh.

Some people suck!

It's revenge for all those times you've toyed with the cat by dangling a bit of string just out of reach to try and get them to chase after it... It's not just elephants that never forget.

The technologically inept.

Mum got a new phone (she had a brick from like a decade ago so it's a fairly big leap for her) and now I get a string of "how do I do this" "why isn't it working" "*insert strange cat like noise* what have I done now?" sentences.

I don't know Mum, I've never had that phone, why don't you you try and figure it out the same as I will have to.

Oh and repeated "the screens filthy" comments. Yes Mum, that's cos your previous screen was three times smaller, and was so pixilated (sp?) that you wouldn't be able to see a spec of dust on it if you tried.


"Just rub it on your leg"
"No the fibres in my clothes will scratch it"

"I've just put a screen protector on it!!!"
"but then that will get scratched?"
"Mum it cost like 20p, I can get you a new one when it does"

"I'm frightened of dropping it"
"Mum I bought you this rubber thing for that very reason"
"But I might break it"
"Mum it's insured"
"I'm going to keep it in this old camera case as well just to be on the safe side!"

"The screens gone black"
"Yes Mum, it's to save the battery"
Aaaarrgh!
