Pet hates but keep it ‘nice’

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.

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

And sidewalk spitters, the horror!

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

"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!

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

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

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

I don't think I like them much either!

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.

Mosquitoes and cockroaches. If I see a cockroach ? I scream, just can’t help it. Even looking at that little picture makes me feel nervous.

Daddy Longlegs aka Craneflies) . I can't bear to be in the same room as one of them.

Oh, they are terrifying, annodomini.

People who end sentences with "init" or start a sentence with "back in the day" all totally un-necessary.

I started to write a list and realised there were so many that I would bore myself as well as everybody reading them. Therefore I will agree with 99% of the above but would add:

Saying ‘ter’ instead of ‘to’
‘Garridge’ instead of ‘garage’
Scattering ‘Like’ throughout sentences
The word ‘Celebrity’ when the appellation is meaningless
Those in the public eye who deny that they have had plastic surgery/enhancements when they obviously have
Online newspapers who use emotive headlines as click bait.
.................regrettably I could go on, Just call me Victoria Meldrew!

Coat hangers.

More and more seemingly well educated people replacing ‘th’ with ‘v’: ‘wiv’, ‘whever’ and ‘v’ with ‘f’: ‘things with ‘fings’. There are many more. Oh and using adjectives as adverbs and past participles as verbs. I am forever shouting at the radio/tv, I need to criticise less!

Here you get paddick instead of paddock. A lot say ‘haitch’ for ‘aitch’ but I was told it was people who had been to Catholic schools who did this. Interesting if true.
One I do like is if you think someone is saying something wrong or telling furphies you say ‘Yair right’ Also I like the phrase,
‘They must have a few kangaroos loose in the top paddock’, a gentle way of saying they’re not quite right in the head.
