People who say 'I agree 150%' or 'I give 110%...' no you don't! You can't do anything over 100%!

I agree with that 100%. I always shout it to the tv when X factor is on.

Use of the word 'awesome', because things very rarely are awesome.

Lateness, it's disrespectful.

Men who say "we're pregnant". It's sweet that they are so involved but only the one carrying the baby is pregnant, dads-to-be are expectant.

Indian Ink tattoos. I don't get why, if your partner/child/football club is so important to you that you want it on your body forever, you wouldn't do what it took to save the money to have a decent piece of professional tattoo work done?

• people stopping suddenly in front of me x x

Don't ever go to Alnwick, it seems to be a obligatory there!

Strangely my list seem all to do with OH;)
crunching
sniffing rather than blowing
popping after drinking from beer bottle
talking too loudly
not putting things away then getting stressed next time he needs it

People walking in front of or standing in front of my daughters wheelchair..grrr. A few weeks ago I was at a NT property in the sleeting rain, wailing toddler on my shoulders, pushing daughter's heavy electric wheelchair( which had run out of charge) with one hand, holding dog on lead in other. Ditzy mare coming towards me walks into my path, and keeps walking leaving me to try and manouvre round her. 'oh sorry, didn't see you there'.

There doesn't appear to be any smileys of hitting someone with a wet fish, but if there was, it would be here #:D

Same, it seems obligatory for all the females in my work place to call each other that.

Following on from Mimi's post, I'm regularly irritated by people in wheelchairs/mobility scooters (especially scooters, I'm sure 3/4 of people on those are just lazy b******s) travelling too fast along the pavement and expecting everyone else (even those walking ahead of them with their backs to them) to get out of their way.

If they want the priviledges of able-bodied people they should show the manners too. Someone on foot wouldn't run along the pavement and straight into other (often unsuspecting) people.

I agree with so many of these!

1. People who do not indicate when driving.

2. People who indicate right when coming off a roundabout.

3. Cyclists who ignore red lights.

4. People who break, start turning off and THEN indicate! Eugh, it's not too hard to remember mirror, signal, manouver.

5. People who try clothes on and do not put them back on the hangers! Yes it is my job to sort the clothes out, but tangling up 5 items in a ball with the hangers and throwing them at me is not helping anyone. The people who do this also go round dropping stock on the floor, then want a discount because it is dirty.

6. General rudeness because I work in a shop.

7. People who put their bag on the seat next to them when they are on public transport to prevent someone sitting next to them.

Agree with a lot of these!

My pet peeves:
- people cracking their knuckles or other joints, ugh _pale_
- people who have children and smoke
- people who post on FB about their lovey-dovey relationships and other sickening statuses regarding GF/BF/children. My brother posts "<3 my (his GF name)" after every single thing! :mad: - if you have something meaningful to say to them, say it to their face or at least in a more private manner!

I'm guilty of this. But in my case it is moving my wrist back into place because otherwise it hurts and I get pins and needles.
