Things that annoy you that shouldn't

Also seeing babies, toddlers and children with dummies in their mouths. I always thought dummies were to help babies get to sleep!

Use of the word 'guys', especially when there isn't a man in sight.

I realise I wrote loose twice. I meant, of course, muddling loose and lose. I agree with so many of these posts. Another Victoria Meldrew here. I was with my friend yesterday and we were addressed as “you guys.” We are ladies in our fifties. Surely “is everything alright?” is enough. Otherwise call us ladies. My bad and meh are real bugbears for me as they are so meaningless. I would never mention my irritation at euphemisms for death but I am always tempted to say “how careless of you” when someone mentions that they “lost Mother last year.”

Music everywhere ! Terrible street singers with loudspeakers, music in restaurant loos, music if you’re hanging on the phone , the assumption that everybody needs to listen to music if they’re out running , or doing anything in fact . Peace and quiet is good sometimes.

Shelf after shelf of expensive ready meals in supermarkets; buy one get one free - it’s not free and I don’t want two. Animal print clothing.

People on mobility scooters who think they're at Brands Hatch instead of a shopping centre.

My neighbour's wind chimes and twinkly lights.
Island instead of IRELAND

People who use their elbows to push supermarket trollies, I want to say “stand up straight, not slumped over the trolley handle” ugh!

The plastic 'sleeve' put on cucumbers. WHY????

The expression ‘for free’.......for nothing or free surely !

I can become unreasonably aggressive when I hear mischievous pronounced “mischeeveus”.

Ah, the "pointy shoed b******s", as I've heard them referred to.

I know a man who gets ridiculously angry at seeing men with their jumpers arranged around their shoulders. Tied by the arms, with the main jumper part down their backs.

Children as old as 4 or 5 still sucking soothers.

Middle aged people boasting about how 'wild' or 'rebellious' they were at school.

Men wearing tight fitting blue suits with brown pointy shoes.

People who constantly put apostrophes in plurals (or maybe I should have written plural's for those who find it all a mystery).
Those who say, "Can I get.." to a waiter
Anyone who pronounces aitch as Haitch.
"Passed" instead of died. I'll stop there or this will be a very long post.

Agressive motorists driving right up behind me because I am sticking to the speed limit

The offspring of famouse parents being given lucrative modelling contracts.

Celebrity versions of quiz shows (especially when they show how ignorant they are)

People who don't know when to use "to" or "too"

The word "amazing"

Babies in pushchairs with pierced ears and silly headbands.

(Better stop now - in case I get RSI from typing the rest)

Almost too many to mention (and many already have):

To a waitress 'Can I get a whatever?'. Yes, of course you can. I think you mean 'please may I have a whatever?'

'So' at the beginning of every sentence (so seems to be displacing 'basically'.)

Spitting on the pavement. Surely runners could find room for a tissue twixt Lycra and skin.

'Haich', although I have been told that pronunciation of this varies from both varying regions and religions.

'Should of' instead of 'should have'.

The creeping use of 'shh' where there is just an s, For example, conSHUme.

The use of young 'with it' BBC continuity announcers whose English and pronunciation is appalling (I know, I know, I sound really old-fashioned but the young man I am thinking of doesn't pronounce the ends of words and slurs. We shout at the radio and TV!)

People, all people, young,old whatever. I find I have no patience as I get older. Except my Grandaughter who is perfect!

I can’t abide people who push quite big children around sitting right inside the supermarket trolley with their filthy shoes all over the place where people have to put their food when they’ve finished with it, it just shouldn’t be allowed.
Middle aged couples who start canoodling in the supermarket queue, yuk! Wait till you get home.
People driving mobility scooters right up the middle of the road totally oblivious to the fact there is a line of cars behind them trying to get somewhere in a hurry.
I’m another who can’t abide people saying ‘can I get’ in shops/bars etc and I’m not going to lie (why would you) but I really don’t mind the term ‘passed away’ rather than ‘died’, my Grandma always said it, doesn’t bother me at all.

Oh now that really gets my goat!

Parents who fail to make eye contact with their tiny children because they are too busy on their phones.

Round here we say "I'm gaaan a shop, do ya wan anyfink?'

People who write "should of" instead of "should have". Estate Agents (mostly) who describe a house "comprising of". People who punctuate their speech with "like" about 10 times in a sentence. People at the supermarket checkout who hold you up while they fumble around for their credit card right at the end - why don't they ensure it is handy whilst waiting in the queue?
blah blah blah....................................

People who say somethink

Mollygo I just saw your post.
Phonetically I would say Edinburra.
The burgh I think would not quite be the same as borough.

ripped jeans, never ending numbers of tattoos, people wearing filthy "disposable" face masks for days on end , people that never return your telephone messages, - just to name a few
