Yes!! The amount of times I've nearly been run over when crossing a filter lane because no fecker was indicating left. When I come to power they'll be banned from driving for 10 years.

Anyway, other pains in the arris for me include

Self service checkouts - "please wait for assistance", "unrecognised item in bagging area". But the worst time is when women are using them and I'm in the queue. With me it's just beep, beep,beep, pay, go. Your average woman takes about half an hour to inspect something, slowly moves it to the scanner, then slowly puts it in a bag, then the next item.

"The scot" Journalists, especially at the beeb who get a real thrill from referring to Andy Murray or John Higgins as a Scot but they refer to Englishmen as Brits.

Housemates Idiots who can't clean up after themselves and who need the heating on 24/7 every time the weather dips below 15C, and then walk around the house in shorts and T-shirts. We've just had a bill for £453 for the last quarter.


Yes! Especially the last one! Southern puffs.


Now based in reading, do I class as an exile yet?

Yeah that really winds me up. Some people don't even look at you, just walk through like you're the fckin butler. I always shout you're welcome but they still ignore you.


I have held the door for people many times,but people who do not acknowledge me get a door let go on them, Also people not indicating gets on my mammary end, Sat waiting at a roundabout and they then turn left when you could of gone.  


Grimsby and proud!

People who don't thank you if you hold a door open for them.


I'd go with that as well and poor manners in general. I really hate in a busy supermarket if you wait to let somebody go past you and they stroll by without even acknowledging you. I don't want a grovelling thank you but at least smile or nod or acknowledge me. The other one is going into a shop and the person on the till continuing their personal conversation with a colleague leaving me stood around waiting. Or possibly even worse, them sort of half-serving me whilst totally ignoring me and continuing their conversation, only pausing to half turn towards me and grunt out a price.

I'm going to stop now as I can actually feel my blood pressure starting to rise just thinking about it.

Oh and one final one is people who park over the middle of a line in a car park thus taking up two spots. Not the just excrement at parking way but the deliberate 'I've got a flash car so I don't want anyone parking close to me'. The last time this happened to me, on a day when I couldn't find a parking space, I had a bit of a Larry David moment and put a note under the windscreen wiper of their shitty BMW which simply read:

Dear Sir/Madam,

You are an inconsiderate sharp object.

- People on trains who press the "press to open when illuminated" when said button is not illuminated and then look all furious.
- TXT speak like OMG, LOL.
- People who use TXT speak in actual verbal conversations.
- regionalised fake reality TV shows.
- People who make sure everyone else can hear their mobile phone conversations whilst on public transport.
- Lazy journalists who base their storys around Twitter quotes.

To go further on that, when you're waiting for an elevator with the button already pressed and somebody else comes over to wait and presses the button 3 times. Congratulations, you've entered the secret code that makes the lift come faster!

Also, the film Hancock.
