Blokes with beards and tattoos, such a generic and unimaginative cliché.
People who claim they are only interested in the woes of the poor and disenfranchised when in fact it's obvious they really have contempt for the working classes and are only really interested in sustaining the status quo/their profit margin.

The vast majority of things in life are “generic and unimaginative” , do you struggle with everything else as well?

What's wrong with hugging ? I always greet friends with a hug. Hugging is good. I'm so glad we got rid of the stiff and starchy handshake thing.1) Double kissing. Ridiculous and affected continental habit now in vogue here. One peck is quite sufficient. We are one short step ( and its coming...from triple kissing )
2) Man hugging When did this start? A handshake is quite sufficient. A hug should be warm and loving and special. For some people its the normal form of greeting now.
3) Waiters/waitresses...." enjoy "......let me be the judge of that.
4) Locked public toilets in the middle of the day. Either open them or knock them down.
5) Car grills with permanent ' red noses ' attached to them. You don't wear a poppy all year round. Take them off until its that time of year again.
6) Food products shrinking in size but no price change. Its happening everywhere and the manufacturers say..." We want to maintain value for money for the consumer and not increase the shelf price " What a load of tosh. A 20% reduction in size is a 20% price increase.
7) Big expensive cars refusing to get over in country lanes. If you want to take the scenic route, be prepared to tuck yourself in and accept you are going to get the odd hedge-scrape.
8) Horse riders/Cyclists. Both riding two abreast, chatting away, without a care in the world, whilst the poor motorist behind is struggling to see clearly ahead and has to move completely to the other side of the road to pass.
9) Glued down toilet paper. Very clever. You have to rip away half the roll to get started. Odd tiny bits of paper all over the loo floor.
10) Litter. Don't get me started. There is a complete lack of respect, general. Plastic and cans and fast food strewn everywhere. No where is sacred. It needs a National attitude change but I'm not holding my breath in this lazy, self-centred society.
"How are you" is a cultural thing. In South Africa, amongst both the white and black cultures, If you ask a question of someone without saying "how are you" first they are quite likely to ignore the question and either say "how are you," or "I'm very well, thankyou. How are you?" as a rebuke for your lack of social etiquette. Even the police do this.'Have a nice rest of your day'
'How are you ?' from someone you don't know in a call. I always told my team never to use that expression. It is insincere and if someone wants to tell you their life story be prepared as you have a duty to listen.
