Room 101

2 year olds.

Especially when they scream all the way to the mall, all around the mall, every store you go into, and all the way home...and then scream the house down before passing out.

GAAAAAHHHHH!

Boys who wear their jeans at half-mast, i.e; around their hips. :ban: They look like they're wearing nappies, some of them! It was only in fashion for a very short time because blokes soon realised that they looked like pratts! I see boys wearing their jeans like this, and they have to walk like cowboys, all bandy-legged, to stop their jeans from falling down! Pull them up, you idiots!

omg could not agree more!
 
People who swim along in long lines in the swimming pool really slowly, even when you are trying to train for races!:hb:
 
People on trains who get drunk before watching the races :hb:. Hate trying to get the train home for the same reason but by then they are even more drunk :rant:
 
people who don't have their dogs on the lead when they are aggressive and then have a go at you because our dog reacts to theirs
 
Tea in railway station cafes .

I thought we were a nation of tea drinkers ?



... " would you like milk in that ? "

... " yes - but can the milk go in AFTER the tea has infused ? "
 
Christmas gift wrap. I've been struggling with the wretched stuff all weekend. It's either so thick you can't wrap with it properly, or so thin it tears on the corners. Or it's so shiny the tape won't stick. I'm aware I'm turning into a Christmas grinch but I am seriously looking at alternative wrapping next year. This year it's done my head in.

I've used brown paper this year. I'm really pleased! Tied up with the red and white butchers string and luggage label type tags.
 
@Tigermoth love brown paper!

@Teddybear22 sorry that's probably me you're putting in room 101 :))

People who park in bus stops for NO REASON while you're trying to wait for a bus, and it drives past you :doh:
 
Similar to @Tiamolly123, people who decide to have a chat and block the pavement. Fair enough, you're walking your dog, you see a chum, you want to catch up. Move somewhere that's not blocking other people's way or be aware that others might want to use the path and move aside when they want to pass!

I live in an old area of a small town where the pavements are quite skinny and the roads are twisty and get annoyed when forced to walk in the road because someone's so caught up in their chat that they can't see someone wants to walk by. I don't get road rage as I don't have a car, but believe me, there are as many inconsiderate pedestrians as there are drivers :))

LOL, sorry. I'm more sensible than the usual to it because I stopped smoking a few years back, so it bothers me quite a bit!

Haha no need to apologise! I don't stand near people if I can help it XD

But the people I do wanna put in the room is the ones who stand next to you (or are nowhere near you) when you're smoking outside and then complain about it and cough super loudly :))

That's me :)) But ONLY if it's a bona fide non-smoking place (I'm too timid to tell people to stop, but passive-aggressive enough to be a coughing nuisance!). Bus stop shelters and train stations are non-smoking, and I use them often. I don't mind if I can't smell/taste it, i.e. they're far enough away, but it's generally a personal space issue - I don't want to be near enough to an actual person to taste the inside of their mouth (I find vape trails even worse). The other day a guy was smoking at the station and a train man asked him to stop or leave. The guy was like 'You can't tell me what to do!' and the train man was all 'Yes I can', called for backup(!) and him and THREE other platform men escorted the guy out of the station! I love the fact I live in such an unremarkable area that this 'crime' was dealt with with appropriate severity :))
 
People who see you waiting patiently for a car to reverse out of a parking space and then drive at full speed the wrong way round the car park to drive into that very space while you watch in disbelief. And no - I did not take to swearing at full volume, hitting the horn or throwing my hands up in dramatic disbelief - that would have been just childish :whistle::inn::whistle:
 
People who leave a shop and stop dead just outside the doors, usually to look around or to fuss with bags. And because I'm behind them, I bump in to them.

I also cannot stand any form of unnessessary fussing for no reason...

I'm like that. My OH's mum is a fusser, a huge fusser. Everytime she visits... without fail... she will grab my hair! I hate it and last time she did it I had just got out the shower and she felt the need to complain that it was all wet... well I have just had a shower duh!

Haha that's hilarious, and completely fair game XD
 
Let me see...I didn't look through all the pages so I hope I don't repost. I would put...the "not my problem" people. Y'know, they think they can stop caring about the environment because everyone else does it too. Also, people who find out you're vegetarian and are like "but meat is delicious! How can you live without bacon?!" I don't wish to eat a dead pig, guys. And also people who force opinions on others- you know when someone is certain that they're right and everyone else is wrong? Awful.
I can't pick just one thing:(
