I'm not talking about the big stuff like global fascism or being energy farmed from an other dimension - I'm talking about the little things that niggle you.

I'm a pedant when it comes to the english language, so here goes...

People who say "PIN number" - even the banks now say this! Grrrr! what do you think the N in PIN stands for?

People who say "Quad Bike". I beg your pardon? Quad implies 4 and bike is short for bicycle - meaning two wheeled. It's a Quad Cycle!

The UK media referring to a young lady romantically linked with a player as a WAG. WAGS is a plural term - "Wives And Girlfriends". One cannot be both.

People saying "So she turned around and said to me..." Did she really? A lot of conversations must begin from behind these days.

People who say "And he was, like, oh no!" - what's wrong with "And he said oh no!"?

Since we're on the subject of the English language--:p:D

If the past tense of goose is geese, why isn't the past tense of moose, meese?


This bugs me, and there are more examples of total inconsistencies in the language--lol

Just a thought. :D

That's bad news alright.. How can some lads have such poor aim is anyone's guess. I've had my fair share of wiping up after randoms too.. It gets really annoying after a while.

Some inner bowls are on funny angles & there's danger of the splash back effect. But if ya aim on the right spot - like me, cos I got laser-targeting - you can hit the no splash back zone.

lol@ laser-targeting!! :D

Yeah I can accept the splash-back effect, and I'm told that some shake WAY to vigorously at the end - accidents happen - no big deal!

But what I object to is the thoughtlessness of leaving it there to greet the next visitor to the little room. Now you can't tell me they can't see it going everywhere....for gawd sake, they're staring right at it! Its just plain rude for visitors to pee on your floor, then just walk out and leave it there when a little dab with a bit of the toilet paper provided would make a world of difference! :cool:

* People playing songs out loud on the train via their mobile phone. Wouldn't mind if ANY of them had decent taste in music, like I do, great taste I've got actually, you would not believe just how incredible my taste in music is!

Language would never develop if rules were stringently adhered to.

A lot of things bother me when reading on message boards, number one has to be people saying 'of' instead of 'have'... eg "he could of said it like this", ggrrr.

Another, which is much more worrying is people substituting an apostrophe with a comma. What,s that all about?

And the usual mix ups like their, there, they're. Your, you're. To, too.

These annoy me more than they should, I'm learning to deal with it! :D

James, while John had had 'had', had had 'had had'; 'had had' had had a better effect on the teacher.

Ahhh--the power of punctuation.

An English teacher wrote a sentence on the board and asked the class to punctuate it.

A woman without her man is nothing.

All the males in the class punctuated the sentence like this:

A woman, without her man, is nothing.

All the females in the class punctuated it thusly:

A woman: without her, man is nothing.

I take the train from Sweden to Denmark to work & it takes about half an hour, there was a guy a few weeks ago, on the other side of the carriage & a seat or 2 in front of me & he was clipping his fingernails! They were flying everywhere! At first I was just irritated, but he made it last the whole journey! I was thinking "How many fingers does this guy have? is he doing his feet now or what?!?"

Another train irk: I usually close my eyes & wander off on the way to work, a guy a few weeks ago sat next to me with a cup of steaming coffee & he threw the plastic lid thing on the floor placed the coffee on that little circular indentation in the pull down table then proceeded to play with his telephone...So every time the train hit a bend or slowed suddenly I was putting my hands up to stop his coffee scalding me! he kept taking a sip & putting it back to play with his phone! :rolleyes:

Brilliant Nessa! Women; without them, men are indeed nothing. :D

Since it's pretty safe to say everyone hates cleaning up other peoples shite, or piss in this case. I wana share a joke this thread reminded me of.. Not meaning to drift off-course & be in direct contradiction.. But I'm going to anyway.

First heard this in a Rodriguez/Tarantino movie - Desperado I think.. Big Tarantino fan & thought the joke was hilarious - you've prolly all heard it. Here it is :-

"A man walks up to the bar, and speaks to the bartender. "I bet you $500 that I can piss in this cup from across the room." The bartender looks at the man like he was nuts and says with a laugh, "Ooook buddy. You got a deal." So the man walks over to the other side of the room, pulls down his zipper and just lets it fly. Piss goes everywhere; on the bar, on customers, all over the bartender, but not a drop lands in the cup. The man walks back over to the bartender. The bartender says, "Ha ha ha. Well pay up." So the man pays him, turns around and begins to laugh hysterically. The bartender asks, "You just lost $500, why are you laughing?" The man turns around and says to the bartender, "Well you see that man over there." The bartender says, "Yeah." He replies, "Well, I bet him $10,000 that I could piss all over your bar and you, and that you would be happy and laugh about it!"

LOL! :D :D

Back on topic.. :(

I can relate with some views here. Although, a lot of the petty stuff doesn't bother me that much. Yet, there is one thing that I find particularly frustrating, & @ times quite taxing; which is dealing with thick people. I know it's not their fault & I do have patience for general un-intelligence, it's just the truly stupid - need ever little thing explained - kind of naiveté that really annoys me.

It's probably being a bit hypocritical, I'm far from the 'sharpest tool in the shed' as-well.. But, ya know the kind of practical stupidity that requires an instruction manual for day-to-day living? That type of stuff, I find immensely draining.

It's my one true 'kryptonite'. :mad:

People that use umbarellas when it rains - it is just rain ffs. People that purchase coffee but call it a latte expresso double mocachino bullshit I think I am great instead of just coffee. People who drop litter and more so when they do it in a town centre when right next to a bin. People who wear fake tan - you're not fooling anyone you dicks. When a bus is due at a certain time and doesn't bother showing up. People who talk on their mobile phones on buses, trains and in public in general - Have some fucking decorum you "everyone else must listen to your inane rubbish" wanker!

For me, people who incorrectly use the word "your" when they should use "you're". I know it's splitting hairs, but it still damn annoys me.

Another big irritant for me is people who have no manners. It doesn't take much to greet someone or say please or thank you. People can be so rude.

Incorrect use of (or just total absence of) apostrophes is another niggle...

Cor, I'm with you on all of the above there. :)

Another gripe for me is the people who just simply have to speak on their mobiles while they're travelling on public transport. They can't just sit there in silence, they always have to phone a whole bunch of people and talk absolute drivel until they arrive at their destination. For God's sake, read a book or something. What the hell did they do before the invention of the mobile phone?

And on that note, that leads me on to mobile phones in general. They really annoy me.

I'm sure I could find stuff to rant about all day :mad:

Exactly--why must they be on the phone while they're (notice the correct usage) shopping or standing in line. And especially the blue tooth headsets--these people just start talking out of the blue; very unnerving when you are standing next to them :D

What is it with you guys and calling everybody "cunts"? :p;):D:D
I'm with ya on that :mad:
Perhaps it's a guy thing that we girls just don't get? ;):D

This is turning into quite a humorous thread, so I'll try & keep the trend going. Leme try n comically clear up any stigma surrounding this one..

I'll give ya chicks a hint - It usually has NOTHING to do with the Female sexual organ. Unless of-course it's followed by the words :- lips, hole, face, licker, eater or features. Like-wise, but not always (discernment required) if it's preceded by the words :- lick my, suck my, fucking, stupid or real. :D

To me & most likely quite a few other lads; a good bunch of people - usually a group of lads - aren't 'good people' but accurately described as 'good cunts'. Further-more, just one awesome dude - isn't 'good peoples' but affectionately referred to as a 'good cunt'. :D

As for the rest, I whole-heartedly agree ladies have the right to take offence, if they so choose. :)

That's such a good point. I was in the hairdressers a few months back, sitting in the chair waiting to get my hair chopped and my feet were resting on the foot stool. The little old lady who was in the chair next to me sans foot stool just pointed at mine and said "I need that!". No "please" or "would you mind..", just a straight demand. I was so gobsmacked I just gave her my footstool. She never even bothered saying thanks.

garbage on the back porch because of other peoples dogs.

Exotic fruit is never ripe when you buy it... you gotta wait more than three days, and there is a risk of rotting.

People who blame you on something, but on no evidence, when they're probably the guilty ones.

That the friends who say the loudest, "we got to keep in touch", are the least likely to care about you when you're gone.

That girls who I knew when I wanted them, admit that they wanted me also, and then it's too late unless you can go back and live it all again.

That I don't just say whatever is on my mind... Missed about 1000 predictions this way.

That people who love you tend yo stifle you from your potential.

That jesus is secretly written into the bible as lucifer, and the people who did it plan on killing anyone

I agree with everyone who's sighted lies. Liars really get to me in the worst way.. If ya snap someone (undoubtedly telling porkys) everything is suddenly dwarfed by their lie (ie. Wot they're covering, who they're hurting etc) This is one area where I've felt myself losing control in the face of deceitful lairs - I have to fight to not break necks.

People are capably of worse atrocities.. But, a persons/group going out of their way to deceive a persons/group really fucks me right off - just as much as someone telling a lie for personal gain &/or to make themselves look better or to cover their own mistakes. :mad:

In the end the truth always comes out.

I thought this quote from my Asbestos Head book would be appropriate for this thread:

"I hate how beautiful girls tend to be stupid. I hate how so many people live their lives like this ostentatious display for some unforgiving audience. I hate it when my leg cramps during an orgasm. I hate it when people say, it’s always the last place you’d look. Of course it is, why would you keep looking once you’d found it? I hate the word luncheon. I hate when rich people dicker. I hate Bill Gates for the same reason I hate the Sultan of Brunei, and it’s got nothing to do with money. I hate money. And I hate the concept of ownership. The very notion should seem childish, but powerful children in history have taught Us to strive for personal ownership, not communion. I hate religious fanatics, missionaries, and anyone discontent in keeping their faith to themselves. I hate radically uneven distributions of power among people and species. We’re the only animals that breed and cultivate others for consumption. We’ve even chained down and genetically mutated species for meatier meat to eat. I hate it when the underdog loses. I hate that the winners write history. I hate that scores are more important than plays of the week. I hate sports fans, patriots, and all rally mentality among people united by coincidence. I hate all forms of government, but think anarchy is limiting - I hate that. I hate that inspiring, perplexing philosophical mysteries remain unexplored while human-created mini-mysteries make best-seller lists. I hate it when writers write about writing or that they’re writing and how difficult or transcendental that is. I hate watching obese people eat sweets; I mean you know a lifetime of laziness and conviviality culminated to form this waste space shoveling sugar down its gullet by the bucketful. I hate people that lie to make their lives easier. I hate saying goodbye to people I’ll never see again. I hate saying hello to people I see everyday. I hate how technology perfectly coincides with warranty expirations. I hate that We need visas, permits, passports, and other people’s permission to travel or live somewhere else. I hate the persuasive power of logical fallacies. I hate the gradual disappearance of the word thrice. I hate when people forget the pleasure of the pursuit and settle for mediocrity. And I hate all people who make generalizations."
