Right, people who should be executed without trial, for the general good of humanity.

Those who:

Say that they 'speak as they find' and somehow expect a prize for it.

Non disabled people who park in disabled parking bays.

Play music in public on mobile phones.

Put their feet on seats whilst using public transport.

Use the phrase 'I'm not racist, but'.

Like Frankie Boyle.

Don't indicate at roundabouts or junctions.

Play with phones when you're trying to talk to them.

Say that Margaret Thatcher was ok because she was a 'Strong woman'.

Working class Tories.

Joey Barton.

Ask 'what colour bike parts should I buy?'

Are proud that they haven't read a book since they left school.

Speak to the person pushing a wheelchair, rather than the person in it.

Hang bags full of dog eggs from trees or railings.

Don't join a union but happily accept the associated pay rises and benefits.

Call themselves vegetarians but still eat fish.

Any more?

Say "like" when they don't mean "similar to" or aren't expressing satisfaction

Say or write "either" when they actually mean "both"

Totally agree with all yours, Rusty Spanner!
- people who say somethink ( except my wife, i blame it on the kids she teaches)
- people who overtake cyclists then turn right or whack on the brakes because theres a queue of cars righht in front of them that they failed to see ( or did see but were too much of a bellend to wait)
- people who try to overtake every last effing car so they can squeeze onto a motorway exit at the last moment

Agree with all apart from the fish eating veggies (just don't care!). And especially with those who, "speak as they find". On a par with those who say, of themselves, that they "don't suffer fools gladly". Almost without exception, anyone who has ever said this to me has been a massive fool.

RS - I've hit four on that list. Sorry. Having said that I've gone off Frankie Boyle after his dismal TV show.

Anyone who talks about how pissed they were as if it was a boast or somehow amusing to the listener. B.E.L.L.E.N.D.

tthew, but just think of the benefit to society!

*sharpens sword, stalks 'deluded'.*

I forgot to include people who tuck trackie bottoms into socks and those who don't know the difference beetween 'lend' and 'borrow'.

Sorry.

and those who don't know the difference between 'lend' and 'borrow'.

And those that don't know the difference between bring and take......

EDIT and the difference between lay and lie

Today I heard "can I get 20 B&H silver" FFS.

Those who indulge in the new national sport of red light ignoring. Not jumping. IGNORING.

Folk who don't say thank you when you hold a door open for them. And pretty much everyone else actually.

Derek, that's disgusting.
B&H silver taste awful.

My 30 & 28 year old step daughters both say 'can I get?'

Sadly slapping adults in public isn't allowed these days.

People who say something is a "no brainer", when what they mean is they are too stupid to consider any other opinion themselves.

Anyone who pronounces the plural of text as "texes"

People who talk in cinemas.

People who want to talk work at you when you've just managed to steal ten minutes to throw something resembling lunch down your throat.

People who are unable to change lanes as soon as it starts raining.

People who say "have you go a minute?" when they mean "have you got an afternoon?"

People who ring my doorbell at first light on Sunday to talk to me about god.

People who think their race / salary/ disability / diet / skin colour / religion / weight / age / job title / political allegiance / preferred mode of transport gives them carte blanche to do what the hell they want without question or regard for anyone else.

Actually, people.

But you also like cats Houns, which gives you a free pass on your Boyle based ignorance.

For now.

Also,

People who wear ignorance as a badge of honour, especially regarding IT. Eg, "oh, I don't know anything about computers" when their job is a bloody Accountant. It's like a gardener going "oh, I don't know how to use a shovel".

People who pronounce URLs with the dots at the end of each level rather than the beginning. Eg, "find us at doubleyou-doubleyou-doubleyou-dot, bbc-dot, co-dot, uk". I appreciate that this probably features on no-one else's radar, but it's pissed me off mightily for a very long time.

Intolerant people. Er, oops.

People who confuse "affect" and "effect". I've never in my life had a problem with this until everyone else started misusing it, it never even occurred to me that they'd be confusable words; now, I've got to check every time I write it because I've read it used wrongly so often that I've actually caught the stupid.

Bastards.

I quite like the term 'vitriolic'.

It's what my grandad would have termed "full of piss and wind."

People who think it's ok to sell electronic equipment with no user manual whatsoever (because it's available in electronic form), but a health and safety book an inch think that basically tells you in 47 different languages not to eat it, set it on fire, or stick it up your arse.

... less... no, you've lost me, sorry.

don't get me started on fog lights

You know, it's not the 'there's a light mist, quick, put the fog lights on for the next two days' effect that captivates my caprine, but the same people who will then drive in torrential rain with visibility of about a foot and -not- put them on.

Recently I've stopped caring about what other people do unless it directly affects my health/wealth etc. Oddly liberating not to get troubled by how annoying most people are.
