little things that annoy the shit out of you

[cloggypop]

A bike and good public transport does me.

[Jairzinho]

Fucking hell mate, what traffic jams do you get down there?

 

Plenty. It can take 20 minutes to drive the mile through town at the wrong time of the day. Especially since they built a bus stop in the middle of the fucking road.

[Chris]

Speaking of cars; how fucking lazy are women when it comes to driving?

 

My sister will drive from her house to our mum's. It's a 4 minute walk.

 

At school time you can barely walk up and down my mum's street or access our driveway for all of the mums who LIVE IN THE VILLAGE picking their kids up from school. Lazy, lazy bastards.

 

Until very recently I didn't drive in the U.S. because I like to ride my bike and as I'm self-employed I can pretty much exist within a 3-4 mile radius of our house. They looked at me like I was some sort of retard for not driving everywhere. I'd constantly be offered lifts everywhere. Somehow it just didn't compute that I just like to ride my bike and it wasn't a hindrance to me. (And, as Mook pointed out, it allowed me to be constantly drunk)

 

Now I have a license because the insurance companies wouldn't insure my wife unless I was qualified and on the policy too!

[Trumo]

Insurance company knows.

[Hooch]

Where do all of you's live? Genuine question just wondering how many gf folk are still living in Liverpool.

Military types referring to everyone else as "civvies"

Civvies referring to people in the forces as 'Military types'

The public transport network is pretty shite in rural areas. I'd have to get 2/3 buses to pick my daughter up and 2/3 to get back to ours with her. If it was just commuting from home to work, I could do without a car easily as its on a main route.

Rural Australia.

What's public transport?

[Stouffer]

Military types that don't recognise and therefore pay due respect to my rank; which just so happens to be the highest rank of all, Mr.

[Bjornebye]

Military types referring to everyone else as "civvies"

Same for clothes.

 

"Just gonna change into my civvies, ill meet you in the naffi bar."

 

"Sound, im just gonna change into jeans and a t-shirt, see you in the bar in a bit"

[Champ]

I quite often refer to changing out of my work clothes into my civvies

[Jairzinho]

It's one step away from saying the word mufti.

[Champ]

It's one step away from saying the word mufti.

I thought that was something else altogether

[Rico1304]

Same for clothes.

 

"Just gonna change into my civvies, ill meet you in the naffi bar."

 

"Sound, im just gonna change into jeans and a t-shirt, see you in the bar in a bit"

I still refer to my work clothes as (school) uniform, my running gear as PE kit and dress down day as non-uniform day. I liked school.

[Total Longo]

Military types, generally.

 

 

No pun intended.

I think we all know that Mrs outranks Mr every day of the week.

Eh, that'd be no, again.

[Harry Squatter]

People who display no interest in anyone or anyone else's life yet as soon as they get asked a question about themselves you can't stop the cunt wittering on about themselves.

[Champ]

People who conduct their business over the phone in public places. Usually in a very loud voice. I don't want to know about your very important contract/deadline/whatever

[Bobby Hundreds]

People who say "can I ask you a question?" you just did you presumptuous fuck. 

[Hooch]

People who leave massive spastic gaps when parking.

In accumulation once a few mongs have come along after and also left chasms between them and the next car, means there's about 7 extra cars worth that can't park in the road now.

[Liverpool lad]

People with fake accents

 

Some fucking flump my Mrs used to work with needs somebody to give her head a wobble.  We had the misfortune to bump into this woman recently, par for the course of bumping into her involves a detailed breakdown of how well she is doing and how the world is her oyster. Despite being born and growing up on Merseyside, then spending her twenty odd years of life here, she almost sounds American.

 

It was that bad, that we had driven home and I was sitting there nearly an hour later before I realised what I had witnessed and asked my Mrs how long she had known this American girl

 

The phrase 'that is so you guys' was what threw me. It hit me later like PTSD

The flip side to that is those twats who try to park in a space that clearly isn't big enough for their car. They'll hold everybody up as they make several failed attempts before finally aborting the whole futile exercise.

[Liverpool lad]

I have said this before but lads who are not much to look at who think they have a right to give a list of reasons why they wouldn't fuck a girl who they have zero chance with.

 

She has put a bit of weight on, don't like her tits, etc. These people need to listen to themselves because I sure the girl in question has fuck all intention of getting with them.
