People Younger than me dying really ***** me off. Not that I want to die, Not at all, It just doesn't seem fair.
With me losing untold people over the years I can look back & see absolutely no reason or order for the timing of those who died, It is completely ******** Random.
Lets ring our loved ones this weekend just in case it's one of us next.

Use of the word "oi".
It used to be used sparingly to sharply attract the attention of someone doing something they shouldnt.

The youth of today use it to start almost any statement and drop it into standard conversation, in place of "excuse me" "by the way"and other linking statements...
it REALLY bothers me - you are being listened to, there is NO reason to use "oi", which is rude however used!

The phrase 'pick your brains'. There's a bloke in work who uses it all the time. My brain is thoroughly picked, and there wasn't an awful lot for the picking in there in the first place.

I should be pleased, I love cheese, but I'm frustrated that I have to buy 2 packs!

Calling yourself a "Cloudpreneur"

Oh do grow up you silly little man. Keep your meaningless self-assigned titles among the clueless tech marketing types and leave it out of our tech mailinglists. You're not fooling anyone. It's like calling yourself a Social Media Expert just because you've managed to send two tweets. The first when you finally sussed what that tweet button means, and the second to prove to yourself the first one wasn't an accident.

I've grown to hate how the cold shower curtain wafts onto you in the shower. It's a good job the cabins on the rig are reasonably soundproof - I might have a job explaining why I regularly say out loud "Will you please keep away from my arse?" when in the shower
