For me it's the Horror channel - dreadful music lots of screaming + shouting + mostly z list films arghhh!

Literers especially fly tippers. Scammers of any sort. Tomato ketchup and brown sauce. Noisy neighbours.

NotAGran55 I agree with you so much re dogs not on a lead.
I very nearly had a very nasty accident when an out of control dog ran straight in front of my bike, I managed to turn into a bush at the side of the path and got badly scratched but it could have been a lot worse.

Hare coursers.
The whole flaming Kardashian clan.
Kate Humble
Peloton bikes and the people who use them.

I’ve RTWT and I’d put in most things people have already posted, so I won’t repeat the list.
I’ll add my name to the AITCH not HAITCH group though.
When you’ve written “Aitch does not begin with H” as lines, it tends to stick with you.

Drama queens - especially the wooden spoon variety who like to stir up trouble and then fan the flames

Litter louts, unkind people and other peoples music in the garden when your trying to relax.

You'll probably hate me for this - but it has to be the use of acronyms!

What a wonderful thread for the Pearl Clutchers. ?

Millie22 Tue 04-May-21 16:45:40

Possibly people who start a thread with the sole intention of inciting an argument. Sad really.

Women, mainly celebs, who are over 50 and dress tarty

grandmajet Tue 04-May-21 16:47:26

I’m quickly looking to see if I’m dressed tarty, Jodieb!

One woman’s tarty is another woman’s haute couture ?

?I just heard a teacher on The Chase say “I love draw-ring” ....
there’s no R in “drawing”.....I’ve heard many people say this. It’s my pet hate....

Interesting thought...for me it's

Moths
Garden water features that sound like toilets
My ex husband

earnshaw Tue 04-May-21 17:17:24

dogs off leads
dogs barking
litter louts
wokers

Paperbackwriter Tue 04-May-21 17:21:24

People who say 'hubby' and/or 'holibobs'! (But we've discussed that one before..!)

But why would you even switch on such a channel ?!

dinks13 Tue 04-May-21 18:26:35

Snakes
Anyone who is cruel to any animal
Lorraine Kelly
Rylan Clarke-Neal

Growing0ldDisgracefully Tue 04-May-21 18:44:54

Covid and everything connected with it.
The Mayor of our city.
Those who abuse children, animals, the elderly and the vulnerable.
Slugs.
The nastiness left behind in the food recycling bin.

DanniRae Bells are useless if you are hearing impaired, a little tinkle behind cannot be heard. I agree on cyclists- they should not be allowed on pedestrian footways - anywhere.

LucyW Tue 04-May-21 18:53:47

Jane judge please phone the RSPCA. Anyone kicking a defenceless creature needs to be punished. The next step is physically attacking a human.
I would put Carol Vorderman in room 101. Yes, she has an amazing figure but surely promoting her maths skills would make her a better role model for young girls?
Would also like to put litter louts in too please.

hollysteers Tue 04-May-21 19:18:03

Jeremy Paxman (miserable) and the other Jeremy on Who wants to be a millionaire?
People who automatically put ice in my drinks without asking
Soap operas
Would of, could of,
Joanna Lumley, Nicole Kidman and the Paltrow
4x4 cars in cities and towns (any massive car if not needed)

JaneJudge Tue 04-May-21 20:07:46

I promise I will tell the RSPCA sad I know lots of you asked me to so I will. it IS upsetting

Sadgrandma Tue 04-May-21 20:20:58

Agree with fly tippers, child abusers and most other things mentioned here but for me it’s also tattoos. I know they’re fashionable but I do hate seeing young people complexly covered. I can’t help wondering if they will regret them when they get to my age!
