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

Shopping with Miss Sinc and one of the store workers decided to bend over behind the tills and you could indeed see right through them and I giggled and said "oooh butterflies" as was the lovely pattern on her knicks and she looked rather embarrassed and then realised how see through they were.

Ahahaha nice one


Another thing from me... I have been hungry for the past 48 hours. And so far I have eaten everything in sight!!!

Serious munchies!! I heart food but it's going to make me a chubba (which will make Sam a Chubba Lubba as he will lubba my chubba!) Not good!

/hope I stop feeling om nommy soon

I hate the feeling of putting my freshly washed feet in a clean pair of socks. It makes my fillings tingle.

Umbrellas annoy me generally being as they are usually at chin height for me although I'll acknowledge that there's sometimes a point to them but when you've got people who keep their umbrellas up despite being under cover... Somehow it seems to be viewed as more socially acceptable than people who wear sunglasses indoors yet when you think about it the umbrella when you're under cover is, if anything, an even dafter thing to do.

And I'm back.

Why do people get up and move to the front of the bus before it's stopped, monkey-barring down the aisle to keep their balance? It's an approach employed more often than not by the elderly and infirm, who fall about the place bashing into everyone. Just wait for the bus to stop, get up, and walk off. They're not going to drive off before you reach the door.

It's happened to me, well they tried to but I shouted at them and they stopped again.

The "rules" state that as you have said you should wait until the bus has come to a complete stop before you get up and start moving. The Fareham>Gosport busses were notorious for having **** drivers that would not be happy for you to do that and would expect you to be waiting at the door by the time bus stopped.

Remembering that you've run out of Weetabix, just as you go to make breakfast. It makes my blood boil

Haha Those leggings really are rank. I used to own several thousand pairs back in the day when horrifically patterned leggings were fashionable (coupled with Sweater Shop jumpers). I absolutely despise the things now, especially the seethrough ones Pheebs was talking about. Surely fashion can't be that desperate that it has to resort back to these monstrosities?

Old people who go to the supermarkets on weekends!
You're retired! You have all week to go there!!

Also people who take all 6 of their children with them, who then hang off/around the trolley at various angles, blocking most of the aisle!

the 2 or 3 women all with prams who go shopping together and insist on standing next to each other with baskets or sometimes trolleys so no one can get past

My Nan used to go shopping at the weekend with us because she couldn't get to the shops on her own, so after spending the week virtually housebound, we'd take her to the supermarket and let her toodle along so she could pick her own food out and chat to people, have some interaction with people. It's one of the only things she had left that she liked doing that we could let her do more or less alone (just with a watchful eye in the background). Better than holding people up on a work/schoolday, I'd have thought.

Belmit, I missed many stops because our bus drivers never stopped at a stop unless you were stood there at the front of the bus waiting to get off. Don't know what it's like where you are, but I can understand people who can't move quickly giving themselves as much time as possible to get down there. Makes them more anxious too. No less annoying for you though.
