I think most men would be following the girls! I had a swan sit outside my tent once, and from that day onwards I've bought tents with 2 exit routes.

IMDB has recently started doing this which is rather frustrating when you're looking at biography details of someone and want to go back to the film you were originally looking at.

A double click often defeats them.

On a similar note, webpages who disable the right click menu and give you a smarmy copyright notice instead, thinking that they've successfully stopped me from stealing their valuable content.

1) I only want to force a link to open in a new tab. It's damned rude to disable the whole menu just to stop me using view source.

2) If I want to view the source of your webpage and copy whatever I want from it I can do that without using the right-click menu so it's not as if you've even achieved anything.

People who have the title of "manager" who couldn't manage their way out of a paper bag.

At the moment it's like sweeping water up hill.

But in their little minds they have

Today I was more irrationally bemused than irrationally annoyed, and it was by a CCTV van that was still running on VCRs

This will mean nothing to most but

Fishponds Road. It is one of THE most annoying roads in the area of Bristol I work in, I have to use it to get most places, but it really frigging annoys me.

Oh and lorries who take bends too fast, and then cause chaos for what will be days. This http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-13885753

happened on my route into/out of work this morning, and apparently it will be closed until the weekend. Its a big long bend, and on a flyover so could have been very dangerous.
