Nothing really apart from bad manners, rudeness and disrespect.

Adverts that make simple stupid mistakes

I know it's silly but if they're going to try and sell me something they should get the simple things right!

The two things that annoy me only happen at work.

People that have no spacial awareness and walk REALLY slowly, walk out right in front of you, or just stop for a chat... RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE F****** CENTRE...
As someone else said. People (normally "posh" ladies!) that are in the queue when it is really busy, then get to the till and fumble around for their purse to pay. What's even more annoying is when they realise they've left it in the car

On a forum i used to frequent years back there was a guy who would finish EVERY sentence with '...lol'. The 'lol' does bug me but i can live with it but why the '...'? I read things aloud in my head (does that make me strange?) so when i read one of his posts it would take like 10 times longer than it needed to at first as i would always read the '...lol'.

I know it's silly but every time i read one of his posts i would get more and more enraged...lol

It never made any sense and i don't know why on earth he did it...lol

Annoying isn't it...lol?

Talking about supermarkets has just reminded me of this morning (got the day off).

Went to use the "fast lane" manual self service things, because I had a reusable bag I got "unexpected item in packing area." So I removed it, then as I couldn't put the shopping into carrier bags (wanted to use my own) I had to skip bagging, after 3 of these I had to wait on an assistant.

What's the point? I'm scanning items, who gives a toss where I'm putting them? Why don't they want you to use reusable bags?

Had similar experiences before when even though I've scanned something I've to wait on assistance, which usually means someone coming up, without even acknowledging me and scanning a laminated card.

THe more he flaps, the longer I'll take. I generally have my card or cash out already, in a pocket, but whoops .... I sometimes 'forget' where it is and have to go digging.

I say "man" because I've yet to have a woman do this.

Why you....

.... Oh, wait
