Those small minded wallies who, on the outskirts of Worthing (where I work), where the road merges next to Brooklands Park, decide that even though there is a good 500 metres of two lanes left, they will deliberately sit in the MIDDLE to stop anyone using the two lanes - i.e. to stop road users using the road in the way it was intended. Everybody merges in, one by one anyway 500 metres further on, so who the heck do these small minded tosspots think they are? It happens about twice a week...

On the other side why are there markings stopping you using the 2nd lane fir 100m then a sign telling you to use both lanes. Why, why, why?

Drivers who don't signal thank you, when you have clearly pulled over to one side or similar to let them pass first.

Sorry sisters but women at cash points or paying at cash tills. Why they take twice as long to both find and put away their cash card... Only they can answer.

People who start a conversation and continue it as they leave the room expecting you to either follow them or turn the TV down.

People who say nothing all evening until there's a programme on TV that requires you to specifically listen to it to follow (Question Time for example) and then talk incessantly.

You get in the the car/tractor in my instance for the person to then attempt to talk to you from the doorstep to the house meaning that you now have to get out of said vehicle and walk back to the house to hear.

People that whisper in to your ear. Not only is it cringe worthy all I hear is a sort of swishing sound.

Children with bad table manners.

People that interrupt you constantly when you're reading and then accuse you of being rude and unsociable when you tell them to SHUT THE F**K UP.

People that complain how hard it is in the current financial situation next moment telling you where their off to on their holidays.

Apologies C-sider but THIS annoys me more than most things in life.

News.

Not the old fashioned sitting at a desk news, but the modern news when they send someone to do a story about motorways and they do a report from a motorway.

I know what a motorway looks like thanks.

Snow isn't news by the way. It's weather.

Thank God for Radio 4 news.

People who ask you what is going on in a movie, particularly those who not only ask due to not paying attention themselves but also ask when you don't know yet -pay attention and you'll find out!
The same person will then ask you who a character is. I don't know they only just appeared! "Why are they doing that?" Just watch and find out, or not, or work it out yourself, just learn how to watch a movie for fracks sake.
The main culprit is my eldest sister who I have now avoided watching anything with for 15 years. She has however inspired my new venture of "subtitles for the hard of plot following".

Also another vote for people who get to the front of a queue where paying is required, then seem to be shocked they are asked for money.

Then starts the inevitible rummaging in a handbag (sorry ladies it's usually you) whilst the rest of us people with a brain cell wait very impatiently behind.

Drives me bonkers

When you say "people" you mean women don't you.
