I second that one. It's a craze at the moment, I don't think the people buying the coffee realise they don't need it. It used to be bottles of water, now you don't see that so much. What the heck is wrong with tap water? And why do they all suddenly think they need to drink 2 litres a day when they never needed to do so in the past?
It never ceases to amze me how so many people are sheep - just following the lead set by someone else they saw do something. Halfwits.
I watched one of these "expert sorts out someone's finances" programs years ago, with a woman who was living beyond her means with maxed out credit cards and struggling to make debt repayments...and spending £3.5k in Starbucks every year!

I pointed this out to an old work colleague a few years back. He had no defence, so he just pottered off grumbling. Minutes later her had consoled himself by buying another cup![quote=Wiltshireman]Motorway service stations....gateways to hell
Chavs everywhere
Wallet emptying petrol prices
Shops with eye watering prices that require a line of credit to Ocean Finance, not to mention a full fry up costing almost a tenner
Pointless stuff for sale..since when did a long car journey require a stop to purchase a novelty thimble set or porcelain figurine of a tramp fishing next to a dog..??
Predictable sights...
RAC bloke flogging cover
Toilets where you need a canoe to paddle across the lake of piss everywhere
Only place I ever see 'Grab Bag' bags of crisps for sale... Since when did the world need the greedy sized ??
Impotence / car tracker adverts everywhere in the gents
Is that the 'man with hat' impotence ad? I always chuckle at that. Envy I guess.

People who can't go for fifteen minutes without buying a fking coffee.
People who can't make it all the way to work in the monrnig without stopping to buy a fking coffee.
People who can't make it round Waitrsoe without a fking coffee in their hand.
How the fk did these sheep manage to get through a day before they could buy a fking coffee in every other fking shop?
That's me. Coffee is my weakness/downfall. Always have about ten cups a day starting with three big mugs first thing.People who can't make it all the way to work in the monrnig without stopping to buy a fking coffee.

But no problem really. Coffee is now officially good for you. It helps prevent all sorts of conditions of the heart, brain, bowel, lung and liver, not forgetting hemorroids.
Until, that is, the experts announce that coffee is the devils drink and should under no circumstances be touched.

Please don't get distracted by Anna Paquin, I did once and I got a slap.
Use of tinfoil or tinfoil hats or similar foil reference, mainly in NPE.
Yes, I know what it means, but there's barely an EU thread that doesn't have it mentioned on every bloody page, it's like people are desperate to call out other posters with its continued use. It's annoying me beyond reason.

Announcements on public transport or flights reminding us to take our personal belongings with us when leaving the train or aircraft.
I arrived at the airport with a rucksack. I carried my rucksack onto the plane and stowed it in the locker. What makes them think that in the space of a couple of hours I am going to need reminding to take it with me when I get off?

Well, yay you for being more intelligent than the majority of your fellow travellers. Perhaps some of those poor inferior souls need reminding even if you do not.

Woman in the car park.
Or specifically, the dozy mare sitting in her Galaxy with the diesel chugging away while she waits for her trainer to arrive. It's a beautiful morning, not humid, about 18deg and she's in there with all the windaz closed and the engine running.
For more than ten minutes. chug chug chug...
