Yeah. Me too. Sitting in what should be a relatively quiet area in Manchester airport and some prick came over sat down and then had the worlds loudest phone conversation, practically shouting down the phone. No one else making a sound. Idiot.

And then we'd another one last saturday morning - in a cafe for breakfast, quite a few people in and some bloke has a loud conversation on SPEAKERPHONE in the middle of the place. I mean WTF?

Not a fan of "enjoy" either in restaurants. I feel like saying "i'm capable of deciding for myself if i'm enjoying it or not without you ordering me to dipst"

I reckon ending something with 'discuss' is almost as bad as starting something with 'So'.

It's better when they put "discus" - almost like a warning that a spherical object is incoming.

I don't mind "discuss". It's "talk to me" that irritates because it's used in the wrong context.

What do you want a waiter to say when they bring you your meal? "Choke on it, you "?
