99% of adverts. They have got more irritating recently. I'll never ever ever ever give any money to T-Mobile. Oh, and any advert with 'real people' giving me their opinion on something - we know they are actors mr advertiser, drop the facade.
On decimatedgate, the OED says:
a. To kill, destroy, or remove one in every ten of. b. rhetorically or loosely. To destroy or remove a large proportion of; to subject to severe loss, slaughter, or mortality.

Those seam welded clear plastic packaging you get on some smaller items from shops to avoid anything coming out of them.
Usually it takes a hacksaw and chisel to cut the 3mm thick plastic and will result in injury in the process.Oh and whinging/pedantic bastids.

People who blame things on health and safety or political correctness when its nothing to do with either.

Lots of things on here, but one that happened the other evening: following a car out to the pub, gets to the twisty downhill bit to the village where the pub is, and the driver, who's only doing 30mph where I used to do 50 in a C-reg Nova, starts hitting the brakes at every slight deviation from a straight road! Grrrrrrr. Learn to **** drive, you pussy. I've followed drivers in Mercedes sports cars who do the same: crawl along at 35 in a 50/60 limit and touch the brakes at every slight bend. Fer Christ's sake, buy a Micra if you're that scared to drive. Morons.

Showing my age with this one:
Hair!
That suddenly seems to want to grow out of your ears, eyebrows and nose but for some reason decides not to, on your head, where you actually want the darn stuff!
One for parents - those plastic ties used to hold a plastic toy to its packaging!
Movie trailers that make a crap film look good!
A good cup of Tea that goes cold.
Last one, with some relevance - Cyclist who cycle towards you on the wrong side and force you to move to the right to pass them?
