    “insurance”.

    Actually, one of the most noble pursuits. The luck of the many benefits the lack of luck of the few. Its a brilliant concept.

    Case in point, lots of people insure their home against theft. The vast majority don’t experience burglary. I did. I paid about £200, I got back about £15,000.

    Without insurance, I’d be very much out of pocket. And so would lots of people.

    People proclaiming – where I live is the best, who have never lived anywhere else.
    People who complain about stuff but can’t come up with a better system or idea that is actually practical
    Generalisations.

    Coffee shops with only one coffee machine, for the money charged buy a second and speed the queue up, you may serve more costumers!!!!

    Drivers who don’t know how to use roundabout’s or indicators..

    The daily mail and people who quote from it as if it’s gospel.

    Probably not though. They’ll serve the same amount of people, but faster. Maybe a few turn around if there’s a long queue, but is it worth a £6k machine, and the maintenance cost, and the extra member of staff?

    I’d probably only ban the first three to be honest, the rest would probably just attract an additional “***t” tax…. it’s the only thing they understand.

    People who make themselves part of the problem. I’m not talking about business where it happens a lot. It actually happens in business an amazing amount considering people are getting paid not to cause problems.

    I’m talking about when for example, you’re cycling along and you see a family walking the other way. Now some member of the family will see you and move to the side, someone will grab the dog and that’s all great. Then the ‘problem’ person will start shrieking at everyone to get out of the way when they were already sorted. The kids get panicky, the dogs starts jumping about.

    YOU MADE THINGS WORSE!

    People who lob McDonalds wrappers out of the window of their [insert stereotypical chavmobile] after a trip to a drive-thru and think it’s acceptable behaviour.

    Actually, scrap that – it’s an excellent way to spot oxygen thieves. Just make the clubbing to death of offenders an act rewarded by some sort of public recognition of service to the community rather than a prison sentence. In fact extend that to anyone caught deliberately littering/fly tipping.

    3, People who dash to get in front of you, then move really really slowly, as if they think you lost and therefore have to suffer for it (I work with lots of Italians, Spanish and Portuguese and it just seems to be part of their culture, but one day they will push me too far and will all die horrible painful deaths).

    They do seem to be world champions at getting in the way, especially in the coffee shop / canteen.

    4. people who don’t know how email frickin’ works and do “reply all” when they’ve been accidentally included in an an email, to ask to be removed.

    5. as above, but when they were included because it was a mailing list to all staff.

    6. drivers that have been stuck in a traffic jam, then when they move forward, leave so much space that cars behind can’t proceed thru lights. YES! that jam you’ve been part of for the last 15 minutes, hasn’t disappeared because it’s behind you!!!

    1) Firework sales other than to licensed displays
    2) ‘Private’ signs on bridleways and footpaths
    3) No Turning signs outside grounds and nowhere near a house.

    1) Drivers who injure or kill others. For life. I was a bit depressed yesterday reading the CTC’s Road Justice website at how many drivers seriously injured people, but were given only short bans and tiny fines. Lifetime ban, hefty jail time if they break it.

    2) Car ornaments such as roof mounted England flags, headlight eyelashes, ‘Powered by Fairy Dust’ or ‘Piss on the Baggies’ decals.

    3) Smoking in public or around children
