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

Lazyness in emails. I just got an email from BT (who are trying to sell me a fully managed MPLS network, so an order for a potential £1m over 3 years) and the closing line is:

Rgds

Followed by the chaps email signature.

Is it so hard to write to extra 3 characters to make that an actual word? Heck, as it isn't a dictionary word the spell checker would have had to be told at some point in the past to not automatically correct it, but to accept it.

Hotel California

It's one of the top ten most popular songs of all time, and I can't figure out why. Hate it.

Do you ignore the instructors moves, and basically make up your own moves as well?

I actually do with the stretch down or the situps - I hate doing plank so the way I see it, by doing more situps at 100% it is better than doing plank at 50%.

Hate plank!

One of our directors does this, abbreviates the same words in every single email :/ Brgds is the current one. You aren't sending a text you aren't restricted on characters

Getting home when you are soaking wet and cold from being outside all day, to find that the house is FREEZING! Every single day of the week this happens to me, which normally results in me wrapping myself in my duvet. Bah!

The music on the channel 4 news. It's just so blaring and self righteous.
