    What annoys you?
    Give a few examples on everyday things which annoy you!

    Mine are;

    1. People who eat food chomping without their mouth closed
    2. People who break the principles of 'Can I borrow this?' and never seem to return the item or ASK YOU TO COME COLLECT IT OFF THEM! Seriously; wtf?

    What are yours?

    People who walk to slowly in front of me. I'm on crutches...

    People who post pictures on facebook claiming they're ugly. I always have the urge to write 'I agree' and leave it at that.

    People who don't use the search function before making threads.

    Re: What annoys you?
    My biggest hate is number one, it just really annoys me!

    1) People who write their names without using capitals.

    john smith instead of John Smith, it just looks so ergh!

    2) People who don't have any manners what so ever!

    3) Anything the colour red.

    4) People who ask me to give a few examples of what annoys me....

    People who fear technology. I work at a supermarket, and the woman using the self-scan machine wanted to pay for it using a shopping card. I very politely told her that 'all you have to is swipe it down the side of the monitor, like this" and then I did it for her. Her serious reply was 'oh that's too complicated for me'. My face = :lolwut:

    Re: What annoys you?
    My inconsistent self-motivation (the majority of the time rather lacking!)

    when someone says "No offense but..." yet the following comment is offensive

    People who beat around the bush, for example pretending to be your friend, and pulling occassional let-downs instead of just being upfront and admitting they don't like you.

    I hate indirectness. A friend of mine would often exclude me from hang-outs he organised, due to the fact he wouldn't admit that I was percieved as 'uncool'.

    On a similar note, people who talk about you behind your back. No need for an explanation lol

    -Another one- If there is something that deserves criticism, such as my school which is in a right mess, the effective way to pinpoint the faults of the school is to present a strong,well-thought argument. Yet the majority of people will literally just come out with useless rubbish that requires little to no thought, and does not highlight the true wrongs of the school! The classic "oh the school is so sh*t because the teachers are effing awful". it's comments like these that desperatly need elaboration and evidence to be allocated any credibility and consideration by people in charge!

    Oh my, there's so many!

    Just to name a few;
    1) At the moment, I'm hating people who "haven't done any revision at all!!" and yet come out with far better grades than me.
    2) Girls in my lectures who go for the 'messy, relaxed, just out of bed' look, when they have clearly spent ages perfecting their bed-head 'messy' bun thing and fixing their orange make-up.
    2) Any LAD comments; i.e. shoppingcartLAD
    3) Cheryl Cole
