Slow drivers, i mean if you're that hesitant about driving a car get a bus pass or something and leave our 'A' roads to people who know how to drive. they make me swear alot.

People who say Rock On. That went away in the seventies.

Forums (fora?) are pretty annoying.

Slow walking people, especially in groups.

People who chat in doorways.

Symmetrical chess openings.

People who show off engagement rings. Someone always ends up sad.

Checkout people who like to chat even when there's a long queue.

Flipflops.

Tattoos, except mis-spelt ones which are funny.

Mashup songs that always sound worse than the originals and never get to the good bit.

That predictable ratatatatat drum bit leading into the chorus of every dance record ever.

Jordan (the person - the country is probably fine).

Michael Gove.

People who don't vote because they say politicians are all the same because they can't be bothered to find out anything about it.

Disconnectors.

I'm just a moany old goat.  I know it.

Men with purses.

Recorded messages that say 'your call is important to us'.  It clearly isn't.

People who tell you in grinding detail the plot of a book or film.

Those stupid tall glasses they put coffee in so you can knock it over.

Cardigans on the backs of chairs in deserted offices.

People voting for war-parties because they agree with their candidate on health care and education.

What if someone has spent over $200,000 out of pocket on doctors' bills because of shitty health care, and there are only two viable political parties to vote for?

A slippery slope, for sure. US politics can be maddening.

Those that drive well below the posted limit are likely to cause crashes.

But, the knife cuts both ways. I routinely drive 70 mph on my way to work, and have various idiots that appear in my rearview like they're in my trunk.

I get irritated when some jerk wad times out on a 5 day tournament when he is going to get mated on my next move. Yeah I have the conditional move made but it is still a cowards way of flipping you off for winning.

If somebody canNOT stop talking about just one thing for an entire day. Like my bro Jace_lecraefan CANNOT stop talking about hockey, and my friend from church Kev will talk all day about one of these things:

1) Halo 3

2) Assasin's Creed

3) Mortal Combat X

4) Batman

 

It's annoying.

Don't you see how wrong it is to vote for aggressive wars? That's what you vote for when you vote democrat or republican. Jill Stein is an anti-war candidate. Will she be a viable option? Does voting change anything in this country?

Avatar of Bonny-Rotten

they think they think .... subtle!

people who think they think can be very annoying especially if you're stuck in a conversation with them.

At dinner: the whole table is having an interesting discussion and you are stuck with the idiot that sits opposite you and that is convinced he/she has to tell you his/her life story 'because you'll understand'...
