    -I hate it when people don't return equipment that they "borrowed" too.
    -People who play music out loud on the bus
    -When you let someone go on the bus before you & they don't show a slight bit of appreciation
    -When my wifi disconnects
    -When people ask me stupid questions...

    -Two-faced people
    -People eating with their mouth open and loudly
    -Loud noises going on while you're trying to sleep
    -When people don't show appreciation for something you did for them

    & Loads of other things which I can't think of right now.

    - Obsessive vegans.
    - Hipsters, especially those who try too hard to be "alternative" and different.
    - Old people in bus queues that push past you and insist they were there before you and you should get to the back of the line, gaining support from the other old people in the queue just because you're a teenager and they think you're a disruptive vandal.
    - People that don't wash often, especially when you stand/sit near them. I understand if they're homeless, but to anyone else who's like that: FOR GOD'S SAKE! TAKE A SHOWER!
    - That one kid in the class who thinks they have the answer to every question, even when they don't.
    - People who keep posting depressing statuses on Facebook months after they split up with their boyfriend, hoping to get sympathy.

    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) Any LAD comments; i.e. shoppingcartLAD
    3) Cheryl Cole
    :eek: Same here!

    Regarding number 1, I had a similar situation with this girl I know from school and college. She is basically loaded (even though she doesn't like to admit it) and goes on countless holidays a year with her family to exotic places. Last year for AS History, she said she didn't take her textbooks with her on her Christmas holiday, did no revision at all and yet she still got an A in the January exam! :confused: Whereas I studied, but I ended up with a much, much lower grade

    Re: What annoys you?
    - People who swear (loudly), every second word on the bus. There's a time and a place for language like that, and I can understand provocation... but a general conversation with your friend?

    - People who allow Facebook to take precedence over real life. If I go out to lunch with you, or meet up for any reason, I'd personally hope to receive more attention from you than if I just stayed home and logged on to Facebook.
    It's just rude.

    - Another Facebook one. People who post constant whining, depressing statuses. A bad day, I can understand. But EVERY day?
    Or, people who spend their lives on Facebook, then moan about not wanting to be updated about the weather/Jubilee/whatever. :rolleyes: Seriously? You spend all your time on the site, and you've not figured out how to unsubscribe from/hide peoples' updates that you don't want to see?

    - Rudeness. The words "please" and "thank you" do not cost anything.

    - People who cheat on their boyfriend/girlfriend. :mad:
    I don't mind people wanting "experiences", or shagging around. I just hate it when they hurt their partner in order to do so.

    - People who think that the ONLY way to have a good time, is to get drunk every weekend. Nothing wrong with clubbing etc, I do it myself. But it's not the only way to have fun.

    - Spoilt people. (Yes, I know parents are to blame, not the child.)
    Yesterday my aunt and cousins came to visit. My 12 year old cousin is on her second iPhone since the start of the school year, because she LOST the first one. :rolleyes:
    Instead of replacing it with a £10 basic cheapie, my aunt and uncle got another iPhone for her on the insurance. :confused: Aargh. Plus the fact that she acts like it's her right to have a smartphone. :rolleyes: You're TWELVE! You use it to take photos of the cat, JLS in concert, and play Temple Run. Plus you've not been in our house five minutes, and you take out your phone to scroll through it because you're "bored." :mad:

    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!
    More or less everything you typed also annoys me to the bitter moment where I feel like exploding! I feel your pain!

    People who make kitchen jokes about women.

    Apart from them not being funny at all they are predictable.

    Completely forgot spoilt people, probably ones who annoy me the most! Giving a child anything they want will make them believe they are more worthy than anyone else, and deserve to be treated better than others. A friend I used to have was obsessed over me, and would get into massive strops if I didn't want to do something he did. I guess strict parenting exists for a reason, it prevents the ***holes

    People who make ignorant assumptions about me.
    People who repeatedly snap at you and think that saying sorry wil make everything better.
    Lack of basic manners and people who aren't polite how hard is it to hold the door for someone? Or to say thank you and sorry?
    People that cannot except that everyone is different and are naturally going to have different views and opinions but insist their opinion is right.
    The fact that big brother is back.
