Why?
Do you hate me that much?Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.
Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.

my wee bugbear is those people who say they never win anything when it turns out they don't actually really enter anything anyway xYou never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

My pet hate is Rafflecopter competitions where you have been entering for 3 months or so, coming back every day and then they dont even let you know the winner, just the first name and surname initial would do, but nothing! I really think the Rafflecopter should be set to announce the winner.2008£3002009£13002010£15002011£41952012£21942013£1494

Mine are the ones who grumble how they are having such a poor month "I've only won ten prizes this month" or whateverI Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole

This is a twofold one...
1) Putting your name / phone no / email on a thread, thinking that's how you enter a competition (despite the links in the OP)...
Bad enough.... So I always send a friendly PM explaining how to enter the comps...
2) Not getting a 'thanks' for my PM that alerts them to the fact that they've not entered the competition by responding to the thread / have just put their personal details on a public forum.
So, yes, 1 annoys me but is understandable, 2 is just plain rude.0 -
