The fact that none of the 3 keyboards on my desk have either a £ or € key, so I have to try to remember the alt codes* . The lack of a £ is fair enough as I'm in the Netherlands, but why the hell is there no € key? fortunately there is a $ key as not having one of them would make Excel a nightmare.
* Alt-156 is easy enough to remember when posting on a car forum, but Alt-0128 is trickier as they're a bit before my time
On a UK keyboard alt-gr and the $ sign make a € - not sure if the same for a dutch setup.* Alt-156 is easy enough to remember when posting on a car forum, but Alt-0128 is trickier as they're a bit before my time
I wish I had a keyboard with 1 shift, 1 enter, and no tab, caps lock, alt etc. I am not a super-user.

People on a car forum referring to "Duel carriageways", no wonder there's so much aggressive driving around if that's what people think the roads are for :-D
Indeed. 
Also, people who think that dual carriageways have two lanes. The 'dual' refers to the fact that the carriageways are separated by a permanent central reservation and can have any number of lanes, including one.
This lack of misconception by some people annoys me beyond reason.

There's a single lane stretch of a national speed limit dual carriageway on the A31 and the amount of people who slow down for it is bloody annoying.

Dubya? That you? Where you been, buddy?
Oops sorry. Proof reading fail on my part. I started out writing "lack of knowledge", changed it to "misconception", and forgot to remove the "lack of". In other news, people who don't proof read their posts before posting annoys me beyond reason.

And "manuel" gearboxes also...Elf on a f
king shelf.
Daughter has taken a shine to it. She writes the busy little a note every evening, which means that I've not only got to come up with "mischief" every morning before she gets up, but I've also got to reply to the note, in retarded left handed writing so she won't recognise it.
December 26th, that sodding elf is getting a 6 inch nail through the head and chucking on the Rayburn. Elf-magic your way out of that, you little freak.

A bloke at work. Complete cock socket. Despise his very being.
He annoyed me so much at work yesterday so I picked up a chair & threw it at him.
Sadly it missed.
I got suspended yesterday afternoon pending an investigation.

Thread winner...
(I assume you missed with the chair?)
