Little things that annoy you....

Blokes who pay attention to what young females say on a train.

As ant said, it's hard to avoid when you're stuck like a sardine in the morning train. Again, I heard about 6 'likes' in one sentence this morning.
 
'Like' came up in a spelling bee once. The contestant asked for it to be used in a sentence. :hihi

But who's listening enough to count and keep track of sentences :hihi
 
When I am driving in a line of cars in the left lane waiting for my turn to get past a tram and cars come screaming up on my right hand side and put their indicators on expecting everyone to let them in.

Grinds my gears

Oh and when I am in a 40 km zone in the evenings and a tram passes me. Don't trams have to abide by speed limits?

It's an expected annoyance now, so I'm more aware everytime I hear a 'girly' conversation....something to break the boredom on these tedious train rides every morning.....better than playing Solitaire on my phone. ;D

I thought the maximum speed for those turtle boxes was less than 40km/h.

That prett much goes for anyone who seems to struggle with the concept of queuing!

PRE posters who never, ever admit they are wrong, even temporarily

they just disappear when what they reckon isnt happening, and then reappear when evidence supports what they said.

sometimes it can take more than an entire season for them to be right for one or two weeks, sometimes only one or two quarters, but sure enough, they reappear.

do they have some kind of alerts, or reminders?
It's one of my biggest dislikes in people, shows poor character in my eyes.....The great KB is certainly one who can never admit been wrong.
 
Both driving.

Driving with fog lights on when its a clear night. Sure it might make your car look cool, but it makes your lights way way too bright.

People who can't get the pretty basic, stay left UNLESS overtaking. Eastlink is full of people that have no idea how to deal with that and generally most drive at less than 90km/hr.

Yep, add to that people who are waiting at a set of traffic lights on a long cycle and seem to be surprised when the lights turn green and take an age to move

Yeah, particularly those on a green right turn arrow who delay for 20 seconds and then go through on the orange so no-one else gets through :police:

Yep, *smile* me at every green arrow turn. We know it's only green for what, 10 seconds?, but the selfish tricks who slowly amble around and take their time turning....Arrgghh! If everyone briskly took off and turned another 3 cars can make the turn each time.

I do that on purpose
