Things that 'Do yer ed in'
I'm at college at the moment and i'm in a reasonable state of boredom. This got me thinking, "What annoys me most about this world that we live in." Heres what I came up with.
1.Loud People
2. People who talk loudly on mobiles
3. When something smells really nice in the fridge and you think "I'm going to eat that." but you can't work out what it is.
4. When the thing that smells nice in the fridge is right at the back and you have to move loads of stuff out of the way to get to it.
5. Sitting in college and RIGHT AT THE START of a lecture, your stomach starts to really rumble and begins to eat itself, and you realise that you've got to sit through the rest of an hour and a half lecture before you can eat something.
What annoys the rest of you?
lots
People who feel the need to commentate on their every thought and movement.
People who talk with their mouths full, often commentating.
Mobile phones in general.
The shops being full of stupid sleeveless backless crochet lacey cardigans when I just want a normal jumper.
A backless cardigan?
What's the point in that?!
exactly my point
They kind of hang together by a bit of wooly lace or a sequin or something. Revolting garments.
hang on
sleaveless *and* backless ... so what, they sell invisible clothes in topshop now ?
Pay attention!
Come on Man! It's got a front, clearly. It's like balancing a tea-towl on your chest. But with buttons.
Slicky
do you mean those silly round cardigans, which are kind of like a knitted circle? They're pissing me off too.
I, however, bought a proper sensible cardigan yesterday from Primark. And lots of cheap underwear. I like Primark.
yep yep
I think they are supposed to be butterfly like or something...they're decorative more than functional which is normally something I go for hence about 20 utterly inpractical handbags littering my hallway. Primark is good yes, as is Peacocks mainly as it's the only clothes shop in the town where I live.
I have no idea
what a backless cardigan is - do they exist??!! I've never seen one EVER and I went to Debenhams this week (not shopping for myslef it's crap there)
There were however loads of sparkling things because as we know all women love glitter. In fact women turn into magpies at christmas time collecting a million shiny things then wearing them all to the shit-bit office party.
I like sparkly things
all year round. Magpie magpie.
yes, lots
I remember making this list before, actually...
People who drive dangerously, or worse, drink drive
People who dismiss contemporary art by saying 'I could have done that' - YES BUT YOU DIDN'T, DID YOU!
People who hear the word 'Birmingham' and feel compelled to repeat it in a stupid Black Country accent.
People who are bad tempered and unfriendly for no reason, when their day would be a lot more pleasant if they just cheered the fuck up.
My very cheap Freeview box randomly turning itself off.
That I STILL don't have internet at home.
Oh, lots lots more...
shut it, you
*throws avocados*
Some bint
did that to me in Waitrose the other night. I only wanted to get some milk, and went to what I thought was an empty checkout. OH NO! It wasn't empty, it had some dithering tart at the end, with a bag the size of Darlington in which she was rooting around for her credit card, despite having waited for the food to be put through the checkout, which would have provided her with ample time to find it. Oh no love, don't plan ahead, that'd be stupid! Why not hold everyone up you STUPID IRRITITING BITCH.
Work.
Yes, work. And most television. And Daytime FM radio. And the fact we are all sleepwalking into a paranoid police state. And those stupid milk cartons you can't open properly and just slop milk all over the counter when all you want is a cup of tea and you've wasted half a pint and the tea's too milky now and the goblins in the cupboard are laughing at you in their squeeky little voices and you know they've just wiped their arses on the tea bags. Bastards.
thought I better defend libraries
"misplaces" or lost generally means someone has nicked it, or not brought it back for 6 months (past due date like)...
no
the books are in the library this much they do know...they're just not sure where
theres nearly an entire shelf mark (includin multiple copies of some books) missing
Primark
irritates the hell out of me. While at uni I worked there in the changing room. Everyone wearing the same damn thing from Primark is irritating - does no one have a mind of their own or indeed a wardrobe?
I can't be bothered to add a list but I also hate cliques
hmm
well they have cheap underwear that fits. And no-one can really notice that I'm wearing the same underwear as everyone else, so that's ok!
Primark has
good socks/hats/pyjamas fleece ones only and underwear. BUT THE CLOTHES!!!!!!!!! If I wanted to walk down the street looking like the rest of my friends I'd consider therapy.
i hate lists of things i hate
and the tops of butter containers. could they bit a little harder to open, please? and what's with the skinny wrapper plonked atop the butter? are we meant to remove it all edge it back slowly? DUDE THERE'S NO FUCKIN RULES!
"People who feel the need to commentate on their every thought and movement"
i totally agree, this is one of the worst things ever.
there's someone who does it at work. things like: "my toe just hurt a bit" or "i'm going to the kitchen now"
i'm actually getting angry thinking about it...
Hehe
me mam does that, and I've started doing it a little bit. On Saturdays, she used to wander round the house muttering her plans for the day. 'So, I'll go shopping, then tidy the bathroom, the have some lunch, then the bedroom and the washing and the ironing and hang out the next load of washing and fix the lino and reprogramme the computer and phone NASA and practice my triple salko and stuff...'
I used to follow her round listening to her muttering to herself. It was like a talking book, albeit a pretty shit one. It had the same plot every Saturday.
actually
i do that when i'm doing the kakuro in the guardian
"that can't be 5, i've already got one on that column"
"4+2=6! YES!!"
"i hate kakuro, it's stupid"
last night i got told to shut up so my housemates could watch a programme about eagle owls.
there's been a man next to me
in the internet cafe this morning, muttering things like
'oh for fucks sake'
and
'ah, yes'.
I wonder what he's looking at?
it's because
girls are stupid
and
girls are very often insecure and easily jealous
yes
and the ones who watch Disney cartoons, especially fucking Winnie the Pooh, and have soft toys of them everywhere.
agreed
I hate silly shoes too - especially those ones that have a cleft in them, like hooves. Horrible.
They've been brainwashed
My mate who I believe is nicely dressed got that treatment from some Morgan/Pilot fans. I said they'd all be pregnant within a week so why worry. It's better to be disliked by a few than liked by everyone because you're so so peachy nice. I wish I liked ultra nice people a bit more.
That's
not an advert. It's a documentary. It actually happened.
bamos
was that girl
(and, scarily enough, the man who invents the internet, too)
Worse than commentary
people who feel the need to overshare stomach churning details of their life and medical history i.e
The cab driver who told me and my friend he'd had a vasectomy and wouldn't be having any more children. He was called Micheal Jackson seriously!
The woman who handed a pair of jeans back to me in Primark saying they wouldn't fit around her post hysterectomy stomach.
what planet do people like this come from?
i hate
indie kid scenesters with ridiculous haircuts who don't appear to actually like music at all and are far too interested in their own stupid LOOK. ie nearly everyone who was at that nastyfest thing in leeds (commandercool will back me up) it looked like an explosion in a hairdressers. Its all about the music maaaaaan. stop pouting and go and dance you shits!
yes!!
and everyone was "too cool" to stand near the front and dance so me and my friend will had our own personal dancefloor to envelopes (which was a good thing to come of this).
I hate that advert
for some cold remedy, where that woman has a tantrum. It makes me feel sick.
Also, that broadband advert that's supposed to be like a documentary and be sweet and nice, but it's obvioulsy SO not true because the people in it are Nick from My Family and Felix from Waking the Dead.
the ad
for Barclays with the plugged in robot is pretty good. can't stand Phones For You or the bingo one.
A few people seem to hate the Zafira one with the kids who act like adults.
the one where
the little kid headbutts the guy's nads is awesome though.
I love
that jingle. It's my ringtone.
RIngtones fucking annoy me. My phone is on silent all the time, purely so I don't annoy people. I have consideration. Why don't you do the fucking same? I came to the pub to sit and have a conversation and a beer, not listen to your bleepy version of Eye Of The fuckgin Tiger, you cunt.
yes,
mine's on silent for the same reason.
also, when people have it so when they press a key, their phone beeps so when they write a message, it loudly proclaims every pressing of every button.
I hate that my phone
doesn't have a normal ringing noise, so I have to have some stupid pointless tune, which goes on for ages as I have to dig it out from the bottom of my bag.
i have mine
on vibrate so i can feel it in my pocket when it's ringing.
though when i'm at home i have a gitaroo man song as my ringtone :D
Don't
you have it on vibrate? Or sit it on the table in front of you in the pub or at home? So you can at least see the light come on if you get a message? Just don't keep it in a bag, maybe?
And if you miss a call, then so be it. I'd rather do that than have the world turn round and look accuasingly at me because my phone has just started playing Come On Eileen at an ear-splitting volume.
the cow at the train ticket office
who is sooooooooooooooooooo slllllllllloooooooowwwwwwww that there is allways a massive queue for tickets, even at the most unpopular of times, and who is so slow that i either miss my train or have to go fare dodging. I HATE HER!!!
Sign Of The Times
it used to be a sea of lighters at gigs now it's a sea of camera phones taking pics that will inevitably look crap.
these threads
are the best.
I shall make a long ranty list in a mo.
BUT where's the obligatory "stuff wot you like" thread that someone always makes in a vain attempt to encourage positivity?
yeah
I really hate those, infact they come top of my 'things that do yer ed in' list.
Being positive is crap and I hate kris akabusi.
I made a positive one yesterday
but these seem to get more replies...!
yeah that one
was ok though.
but it's true, being negative is more fun.
Do you know what really fucks me off?
Microsoft Excel and Word when they just assume you want to change the tabs or put in a formula or format the cells with no decimal places and a Euro symbol.
And don't get me started about that bloody paperclip. 'It looks like you're writing a letter', I think I'll be the judge of that thank you.
oh god
that paperclip. I want it to die so much.
deja vu
sure i've seen this thread before...
only one thing really makes the red mist rise...
Having double doors, and then locking one of them. What is the fucking point? Surely when architects plan a building, they look at said entryway and say 'ah, there will be more flow of people through this passage than a single door will comfortably allow. We shall install a double door to prevent congestion/bottlenecking, which leads to frustration and eventually rage murder'.
Then some jumped up little shit, who is too lazy to open both doors, renders the entire point of the double door redundant by locking one - reducing it to what is, effectively, the single door which leads to congestion/bottlenecking, frustration and rage murder. This is only compounded because when double doors are closed, YOU ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS pick the wrong, door, adding embarassment to the aforementioned congestion/bottlenecking, frustration and rage murder.
It makes me furious.
However, what makes me even more furious is when you have double doors which are BOTH OPEN. Mecca, you think. They are serving their purpose. No bottlenecking etc here.
However, even though both doors are openable, the mindless sheep that infest this planet have become so used to only one door being open that they'll create their own bottleneck. In fact, once I opened the second door, and walked through that instead of queuing. Vacant faces watched me walk through it. They then followed me and let the original door close!!!
I swear. If that's not some kind of comment on the human condition I don't know what is.
Rant over.
annoyances
'people' chopping onions in the wrong direction and generally chopping all vegetables the wrong size, shape for what I'm cooking and then shouting at me when I rechop it so its actually usable. and YES it does make a fucking difference.
'people' who don't wash up properly - either do it or dont. Dont fucking pretend youre doing me a favour by liberally running cold water over the plates and leave little pieces of last wednesdays dinner for me to find next time I go to use a supposedly clean plate.
People who are incapable or unwilling to change the fucking toilet roll holder. its really not very fucking difficult is it? cunt.
People who dont put back your CD's in their cases and leave them around to get scratched to fuck so when i am going through a particulary skint phase then i cant even sell a few cd's to fund a night on the piss.
people who put cd's back in the cases, but the wrong fucking case and make my life a constant tragedy of never being able to find the album I want.
Forgetting peoples names, do it all the time, probably stops me from making so many friends, because I get annoyed when people call me 'mate' and clearly forget mine.
Bank charges - charge me for being poor - you cunts.
Offshoring callcentres. as much as I almost applaud getting call centre jobs out of this country as i NEVER want to have to do one again in my entire life. Its a right cunt having to speak to someone who although im sure intelligence wise is a cut above their english counterparts either cannot speak sufficient english, or clearly couldnt give a flying fuck about the fact your mobile phone Direct debit has come out your account 3 times this month leaving you poorer than.....well just poor.
actually, just make that call centres and call waiting systems - bunch of fucks.
That'll do for now.
feel the hate
people who always complain about being bored
people pretending to like something because they think it's morally right. Lying to yourself is the silliest kind of lying.
People who complain about very common place things for what can only be selfish reasons eg traffic jams, traffic wardens and crying children
People who decide they are against something and THEN go around finding reasons to back up that irrational view rather than looking at the possibilty they were wrong.
Jeremy fucking Kyle
I LOVE
Jeremy Kyle.
Satan face
why?
as someone pointed out the other day
he's like Chris Morris in the 'bad AIDS' episode of Brass Eye.
just look....
at my bloody myspace I've got a whole fricken list of things that do my head in
people who let their dogs shit all over the pavement without any consideration for others.
people who constantly follow the crowd and have no real thoughts or opinions of their own.
pissed up stereotypical oasis-fans.
rude/ignorant/bigoted people.
when the library "misplaces" (aka has lost) books i need for my dissertation.
deadlines forcing me to concentrate on stuff i don't want to.
