Trivial Things That Annoy You Thread

People that start a sentence with 'so'.

e.g.

'Where are you from?'

'So .. I'm originally from..'

Who started this?

Arseholes

 

Referees who count the yards out for the wall at a free kick then push the players back to draw the line ... Just draw the line and tell them to get behind it

 

Tesco self service machine needing assistance and the two employees needed for the area stand about having a conversation totally oblivious

 

Done this in Morrisons a couple of months back, done the self service machine and my bill was something like 60 quid, so when I tried to pay it wouldn’t work so shouted for the wee lassie to stop talking to her pal and come and fix it, but she couldn’t get it to work, so she told me she would get her manager to sort it and not to touch it, so after about 5secs I started to press buttons and shake the thing only to see every till in the stores wee light go red, the manager came running over scanned a wee card pressed a few buttons and all the tills went back on. But said I had to scan all my stuff again. Aaagh !!!! * !!!!
But the funny thing was, when I scanned all my * again, the bill only came to 40 odd quid,
Never used a self scan since.

 

The amount of * spiders this year. They are definitely getting bigger and there is definitely more of them. The end of the summer has always been spider season but there has not been one day that has passed without my screaming daughter demanding that i catch one of these things.

I did see one the other day and it was the biggest ever spider I have saw in Scotland. It was literally gigantic. I was even a bit scared of the *. It was pure squaring up to me and everything. It was so big that when I pint glassed it, the legs were still sticking out the side of the rim of the pint glass. That was an epic battle that lasted a good 10 minutes. I do not like the * things. * off.

 

They are some size of beasts these days!
Stood sweating over one last night with a pint glass that didn't cover it either. Nearly just moved out and left it to it.

 

Why do footballers in England say ‘today’ when it’s evidently a midweek game and they are giving the interview about 11 at night?

‘Great performance today’ ‘He was the man of the match today’

Very trivial but * annoying.

 

That Peter (McGuire) Martin's stupid * laugh when he's telling a story..

 

The state of driving these days and barely anyone pays attention behind the wheel. It’s either people driving way too fast or too slow and the amount of people who just double park everywhere like the road is their own personal property. It’s actually ridiculous how bad people become at driving after passing their test.

 

Fixed that for you @The Prof

 

As daft as it sounds it’s the reason I don’t drive yet at 31, my road rage is bad enough as a passenger

 

People who think just because we work for same company I will help you.

 

So true

 

Not that trivial to me when you are late for a connection…

… but old and doddery folk on planes… firstly they take forever just to get on, put a bag in a locker and sit down.. yet they always manage to get to the front of the queue to get on..

… then once landed… they are on their feet like an explosive went off under them … yet proceed to take forever to get their bag back down and shuffle off the fkkn plane.

 

big * spiders..

 

Seeing the stupid * in Edinburgh going up to full and overflowing bins and balancing their Starbucks cup/coke can/McDonald’s box etc… on the top like they are being sensible and considerate and like it’s going to stay put there until the strike is over rather than end up on the fkkn street 5 minutes later with all the other cups and cans put there or around the bin by a thousand other stupid numpties … like the creation of some sort of trash memorial to a dead bin man…

fkkn idiots

 

Waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting to see who we get in our Champions League Group ffs!!

 

What the F is going on with the traffic in the morning on the M74 northbound? Even looping round the M73 to tge M8 is a non starter as that’s worse!

Where have all the cars come from in the last week?

I know the schools are back, but if I head out anytime after 7.30 I’m stuck for an hour trying to get beyond the Kingston bridge from any route.

Equally, why on earth does the fast/over taking lane always stop? That lane should always move, unless it’s a collection of fandans in their Audis weaving in and out of lanes!
