Pet hates but keep it ‘nice’

People who talk over me.
I hate being late. Difficult to cope with as I'm married to someone who's renowned for being late.
Women who tuck their hair behind their ears, then a few minutes later flick it out again.
People who take ages to order food
Horseflies and ticks.
Blouses or tops with patterned front but plain back.

People who run up our very steep hill without stopping to gasp at the top!

I don't think I like them much either!

"Yous" as the plural of "You"!!! Drives me mad......

Should of, instead of should have I see this a lot and I don't like it

"Poor me" people! They are the ones who think they are medically worse off than everyone else, should have all the attention, special benefits and the rest of us should jump through hoops to pander their every whim!

Women on tv who constantly tuck their hair behind their ears should invest in a packet of hairgrips.

I read that just as I was tucking my hair behind my ears!?

In mitigation, it's not been long enough to tuck for years and I am not on TV at the moment

People who can't talk proper!! In the morning i frequently have a shower, others have a shaa. I like drawing others like drarwring. Probably because I am deaf I have a problem with strong accents.

People saying/writing e.g. mince beef, mash potato, ice coffee, skim milk, etc. Grrrr! It’s mincED, mashED, icED and skimmED!

Ooh yes Ailidh! Why do people pick up the poo then leave the plastic bag hanging on a tree? Even worse than leaving it on the ground where at least it will eventually biodegrade.

Awful aren't they Nell? He a self important big mouth who asks a question then won't allow the unfortunate interviewee to answer, she just sits there simpering and looking apologetic. I can't watch, too irritating for words

JuneRose "Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid".....Don't get me started!

Poor spelling and grammar.

People who pronounce " February" without the first"r".
People who pronounce "deteriorate" without the middle "or".

People in craft Facebook groups who merely type "Pattern?" under someone's post rather than asking politely.

The hanging poop bags.
The non-use of poop bags.

All of the above

People who make obscene gestures when driving particularly when they're at fault in the first place

People who don't feel obliged pick up their dog's poo leaving it for some unsuspecting soul to step right in

The Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid pairing

Emails without salutation, especially at work. Keep it professional, people!

And sidewalk spitters, the horror!

I guess with Michael Parkinson we only got to see the good interviews here and not recent ones. They pick and choose what they show of uk tv. Shame because the ones they had here were good. He was one of my aunt’s neighbours so she always liked him.
Anyway, another pet hate for me is whingers who whinge but don’t assist in any way to help, just are negative. Positive whingers with good suggestions are fine.

Ludicrous warnings on labels. One on a top I bought told me 'not to iron while wearing'. On my pack of almonds 'contains nuts'.

I love those ! Gave me a laugh,thanks

Being told how to comment on a thread.

Sorry, not very 'nice' but then I'm not five.

Feel free to ignore it if you are not interested.

People who block the supermarket isles with their Trollies whilst gossiping and take no notice when you stand saying 'Excuse Me, can I get to the Yogurts, Butter, Biscuits, or whatever else you need to buy! It gets even worse during the school.holidays, The Gossip still continues, but their children are allowed to treat the Isles as a race track, or worse still a football pitch, using a brightly coloured ball they have just removed from the shelf in the Toys section! Then there are those people who think.it's ok to 'Try before you buy' and open several packets of snacks, sweets, or a cake off the home bakery and eat it before they get to the till, often depositing the wrapper on any old shelf along the way!
Then there are those who believe it's ok to make Sandwiches and take Fruit and Cakes from a Hotel Breakfast buffet, maybe a couple of Yoghurts and a few portion packs of Butter and Jam, slip them into their Big Beach bag, and head off with the ingredients for their free lunch safely stashed away! We have even seen Childen get dragged into the act, fetching whatever the Adult who is with them asks for!

nanna8 It's down to personal taste really isn't it. I very much enjoyed Michael Parkinson's interviews when he first did them. However, as the years went on and he became somewhat of a "celebrity" in his own right, I think his chummy chats with his interviewees became a bit too self-referential and annoying.

The widespread misuse of the word 'literally'; as in: "OMG, I literally died of fright!" And illiterates who don't know the difference between "imply" and "infer". And those who pronounce "February" as "Febuary". And people who profess themselves as being proud of their total inability to understand mathematics.
And...that's probably enough for tonight.

Middle lane hoggers on the motorway. Why do they do it ? Arggghhhh

Pet owners who don't research, train, or look after them properly.
(Particularly dog ownwers)

Bad manners, Snobbery, Smugness,
