Just because you can see them doesn't mean they can see you..

You don't have to rationalise your rant Mawee! If it annoys you, ignore the smelly boys

Although Iam agreeing with Garp and the lights in the rain scenario.

I don't see how you can't see people in the rain, when it comes to normal rain we have pretty much every day. I can completely understand with heavy rain.

The 'specific'/'pacific' thing. OMG was in a meeting yesterday. Yes its been said before, but it needs saying again!

People who don't understand the difference between an acronym and an initialism. *grumbles*

(this post is largely aimed at my manager, who renamed something 'so it is an acronym, it will be easier to remember', and actually made it an initialism and thus made it easier to forget)

I do this too and for exactly that reason.

This drives me nuts too!

Also after entering my address in correctly for deliveries (and seeing it saved correctly on my profile) someone or something decides to autocorrect it

(I work in 'eHealth' but I get deliveries to 'Ehealth'). It still gets delivered but it annoys me anyway.

EDIT: Oh and while I'm at it people who say Asterix when they mean asterisk!

When you get face moisturiser in your eye and then as a result your eye waters for hours

Stings like crazy if you do that with sunscreen.

I should have learned that the first time I did it, but oh no - I had to go and do it several times (I was usually fine until I got hot and sticky - then habit takes over and before I know it, yowch).

Annoyance - not learning from one's own mistakes.

What's worse is a tube of suncream leaking while situated in your front left trouser pocket
