Irritating
- 28 February 2010 18:4041586Both on the Yahoo page when you come on the internet today, and typical. Celebrity wife pregnant, who is it? Flood warning`s issued, where? Why the hell don`t yahoo just put the facts on the page without the childish and pathetic, who?, what?, why?, and where?. Yes I know it`s to get you on there and read it all, but it has the opposite effect with me. Irritating. And what irritates all of you?Tell them that I came, and no one answered.

- 28 February 2010 18:5841589Hmmm where shall I begin...............
Standing behind a person at the cash point who only decides to start look for their card once it's their turn and then proceed to spend the next 15 minutes emptying pockets and bags until they find it - could you not have started earlier?
Certain parcel delivery companies who don't bother to actually ring the bell, then leave a 'We tried to deliver a parcel whilst you were out' card - grrrr.
The joy of waiting for the prefect top to come back into stock on line only to discover they are out of your size when you try and order it!!
Eco friendly bags (for life) that develop rips on leaving the supermarket for the first time!

28 February 2010 20:1141598Oh where to start
Plagiarism in books, blogs and journalistic output - for pete's sake just give credit where credit is due
Reporters interviewing other reporters on the news - I don't cae about them I care about the people involved directly in the story
Opinion pieces masquerading as news - I want the news not the journo or news organisations opinion
Noisy, rowdy, drunk people - how would you feel if I behaved like that outside your house at all hours of the day or night? Excatly, don't do it..."Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today." - James Dean
"Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,
While loving someone deeply gives you courage" - Laozi - 28 February 2010 20:3041601I really tried hard to resist this one, but I can't.
The thing that irritates me more than anything else is inappropriate or incorrect use of apostrophes, and there is at least one in this thread already! 
Also:
People who expect others to clean or clear up after them.
Over-sensitive bank anti-fraud systems that actually prevent you from spending your own money.
Spelling and grammar mistakes on signs.
I am sure there are lots more, I just can't think right now. I will have to come back later.
- 28 February 2010 20:5441609Oh God - so many to choose from and so little time. Cliches (see what i did there...?!), news that isn't (like when the news progs tell us that there will be a meeting "soon" to talk about something - just tell us when it has actually happened!), (invariably chav) pre-pubescent Mothers (with shouty kids) on trains expecting us all to want to hear all about their boyfriends sexual preferences and the way they wax their pubes into the shape of Johhny Depp, dog ownwers who relinquish all resposnibility for their usually aggressive dogs in public..................................
- 28 February 2010 20:5441610i suspect this may be a long thread, where do i start?
no, i will leave it to the other members, most of mine will be included i am sure. - 28 February 2010 21:0541617Johnny Depp shape eh? That must be real turn-off for the guys.
Appo strofes, I used two, both correctly I believe!
Being told by a marketing guru that I should stick to IT, and then having to tell him 'Resevations' has an 'r' in it after HIS customer signs were erected all over Lagos Domestic Airport!
