Things that annoy you beyond reason...? [Vol 3]

[DaveGoddard]

Thinking about it, these days absolutely everything annoys or irritates me in some way for no apparent reason. Is my mind just giving up on life?

I'm not sure what annoys me the most with this one. Overpriced gift tat, the idiots that buy them or the local, massively overpriced, garden centre...

So you didn't buy them? They look confy sat on your sofa!

Totally agree.

Today's piss boiler, I was given a target, I achieved the target. They are not happy because they think I should have failed like everyone else. Im not alowed to perfect. I really don't want to have to make small errors on purpose just to make them happy.

I can when I want to, most of the time I can't be bothered. Sometimes ill read something, notice a spelling mistake and hit send anyway, I really don't care.

So not perfect then. ;D

[Cotty]

Spelling accuracy wasn't the target. I did hit 100% on the task I was given but apparently that was deemed too good.

[boobles]

Just as well then!

The "Good films I watched this weekend" thread.

It should be renamed the "Good films we're going to ruin for you with spoilers" thread.

Opening a work email and seeing phrases like "itch scratching session" and "Italian flag technique"....

[Feirny]

People that stand at pedestrian crossings press the button then cross in a gap in traffic. 30 seconds later the lights go red and there's no one crossing.

thought I knew most of these inane phrases, but Italian Flag Technique is a new one. Care to explain?

When you're watching something on your Sky box, and it's the adverts and you suddenly remember that it's recorded and you can fast forward the rest of them. That's annoying.

Walking the dog and getting dazzled by someone flashing their headlights. Then flash again. Why?
Because there are some roadworks and people STILL believe that if you flash the traffic lights they will go green.
THEY WILL NOT!

A rough count of about 4 out of 10 do it.
