Things that annoy you beyond reason...? [Vol 2]

[Lets Torque]

I don't know if it is just me but I find this annoying.



People that don't button up their suits. It looks like you don't take pride in the way you look IMO. Of course unbutton it when you sit down though...

This on the other hand looks soo much better.



This just looks better and better finished off. It doesn't matter if you got your suit from Primark or Armani. Just button it up.

Pictures are pretty bad but all I could find on Google.


Rant Over!

[small]I know it is small point but it annoys me![.small]

Of the 3 recent items I have purchased for the Elise, none of them fit.

The induction kit is obviously for an S2, the speakers are too deep (despite being told they would be fine) and the window winders are nothing like the right item.

Grr.. Pedant.

Ok. I dislike the use of the term App when referring to an Application.

The current, low-budget Haribo advert (family with the Mini Countryman). Surely the company is making enough money to be able to fund a decent advert?

Oh, and 'your' being used instead of 'you're' really grates me despite being all to common.

Asking how far away something is and being given a time.

Yes it might be an hour away, but at what bloody speed? At least THEN I could work out the distance, which is what I asked for in the first place.


Oh, and people stating "something times less".

It's times as much, or a bloody fraction of. Not times bloody less. muppets

Write to the DVLA for the address of the bloke who has that plate, then write to him asking if he wants to buy them from you. Problem solved.
