    People who refuse to indicate (i don't even drive, but this still gets me), people who for some reason have no idea how to eat with a knife and fork, and think that i want to see the half-chewed contents of their mouth. Old people who shout at you "I am not yet so dependant that i need YOU to help me" when you hold a door open for them. Computers that tell you your disk space is full, when you have nothing saved on there. School, in general. Work, in general. Chavs who stand outside my house all night shouting about who has the largest hoop earings, and those mean, mean people who open their newspapers and hide behind them the moment you get onto the train, as if to say "No, i am not budging up a bit so you can sit down, i haven't seen you, i'm reading.". Ohh, and people who don't use grammar correctly, so you have no idea what they have written.

    So not much, really.

    Lack of manners. People standing in shop doorways or other entrances. Those who never look before they do something such as cutting straight across in front of you. Clumsy people who bash you with rucksacks and bags when they get on public transport. TV programmes that never start when they're supposed to, the BBC is the worse culprit.

    The list is endless, but I'll give you my top ten:

    1. People who stop right in front of you when you are walking

    2. Ignorant shop assistants (Am I invisible?)

    3. Lack of manners

    4. Men who leave the toilet seat up

    5. People who take children clothes shopping with them and expect them to enjoy it (they don't like it and they scream which annoys other shoppers)

    6. Instructions/diagrams/maps which don't make any sense - usually in pigeon English

    7. People who are racist and have never set foot in another country

    8. The kind of rain which gets you wet without you realising it

    9. GMTVs Fiona Phillips (she look down her nose at me)

    10. Pushy sales people in shops - if I want it, I will buy it

    mine have to do with driving too....when you keep climbing over the speed limit just to get the jerk off your tail and he still is on your *** no matter how fast you go! I have been known to slam on the brakes too...I did that one day and the guy behind me almost hit the back end of me, then he got really mad and passed me, while he was trying to get in front of me, he almost sideswiped me so i had to slow down, and then he slammed on his brakes! I was so mad! I also hate people that drive 5-10 miles UNDER the speed limit...unless the weather is bad. I also really hate gossip at the work place.....makes me wanna scream!

  • 1 decade ago

    Mine are driving related too..when I let someone go first or let them thru a narrow street and they don't even have the common courtesy to wave a hand in thank you. Rudeness and ignorance of people in all areas of life really annoys me too.

    People who get in the elevator before the people get out. People on Yahoo answers who are trying to lose insane amounts of weight in practically no time, and in general, people looking for short cuts instead of facing reality - that if you want something good, you've got to work hard for it.

    Lack of manners -- common courtesy is easy and cheap, but underused.

    Ignorance and/or stupidity -- playing stupid might work for a short time, but in the end, you're only cheating yourself by acting like an idiot.

    Selfishness and selfcenteredness -- people who are out to better themselves, with little or no regard for the people around them.

    Lack of respect for yourself and others -- lack of self-respect and lack of self-esteem, plus the lack of respect for others.

    Lack of respect for other people's property -- stealing and vandalism.

    Lack of personal responsiblity and accountability -- owning up to your mistakes and taking responsibility for the outcome of your choices.

    Dishonesty -- making up stories to "CYA", cheating on tests, buying term papers rather than writing it yourself, ect.

    Witnessing anyone with a lack of common courtsey along with certain politeness & bit of respect & displaying some acceptable manners, often drives me nuts.

    All of these are CORE qualities of true Britons.

    So, generally speaking, lack of it is rather un-British & anything that's un-British is purely unacceptable.

    people standing on one side of the aisle in a supermarket when they're looking at something on the opposite side of the aisle.

    People who stand in the middle of a busy sidewalk instead of moving to the side.

    People who wear those slipper things then drag their feet coz they can't lift the heel properly.

    Guys who think that they can get girls by grabbing their **** or winking or saying something daft like 'hey baby'
