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

[CC07 PEU]

Middle of the road food eaters e.g. "I can't eat that because it's too spicy", "I can't east this because it's too sweet", "I don't like fish because it's too fishy", blah, blah, blah... Boring fkers.

[McAndy]

Those who dismiss things without trying, at least with food. If you haven't tried it, you can't honestly tell me that you don't like it. And I struggle to tolerate liars.

[Hooli]

I don't like fish as every variety I've tried tastes rank & most has horrible little bones in.

[McAndy]

Point proven. A sweeping statement, despite your admission that you haven't tried all.

As a side note, you must have had poor fillets.

[vxr8mate]

Interviewers on TV and radio that fail miserably to get an answer worth listening to from even the most impotent of politicians.

Morrison's sandwiches variety changing on a daily basis, sometimes they have ham and cheese ploughmans sometimes not.

thankfully that is pretty much the only thing that I have to worry about at present, life is good.

radio 2, jesus what happened to it? the afternoon daily-mail-esque outrage at boring news stories, then that fanny Steve Wright still doing his same schtick from the 80s except now with a wholly imaginary 'posse'
add in traffic reports about temporary traffic lights in the highlands

it would drive you to Heart FM

I have had bones in fishcakes. I don't like bones especially when they get stuck in my tounge.

you want them to come out and chop it up into bite size chunks, like your mum did?

And last but by no means least – I work with a colleague called Stephen, who is known as Steve.
Obviously. No worries except he’s started shortening that to Ste.
Is Steve so difficult to say it is shortened to Ste ??

I'm a Stephen, but I am known by everyone as Steve, except my mum when she's having a go at me, then I'm Stephen.
Being 43 and having left home for 20yrs that is pretty rare.

Kids at school used to call me Ste. It irritated me then and does now. I always felt it was, if you're following the other thread, 'a bit council'

No that's not what I meant. I mean things like fish served with the head still on, or prawns where you have to rip the guts out yourself. That strikes me as not properly prepared. It's the equivalent of serving a burger next to an empty bun rather than assembling the dish.

[Einion Yrth]

The establishments that serve food in the fashion you dislike would, I suspect, be only too happy to live without your custom.

People who are in such a tearing hurry that they pull out into the road right in front of you........then proceed to potter along at about half the speed limit because actually they're not in a hurry, they're just arses.

I disagree.


Arses serve a function in life.

People who seem to think it's their life mission to force all the fancy items on the menu onto me. Yes, I may try it at home, but I'm not risking a perfectly good meal out on something I might not like. Just let me order what I want.

Then slam their brakes on and proceed to turn off less than 200 yards later.

Why did you not wait until I passed? You know, where that massive gap is behind me.
