Doesn't appear to work in this case:

[Houdini]

The British weather.

Fuck off!

[DaveC]

I am quite staggered that nobody has got around to mentioning Coldplay on this thread!

[Houdini]

Rough ...

Fuckin' gorgon.

I've commissioned the ghost of Dante to create an entirely new level of Hell, just for coldplay.

[DaveC]

Would there be room for Maroon 5 on that new level?

[BenF]

In the morgue drawer next to Snow Patrol.

..... and Scouting for Girls and The Feeling please.

Utter shite.

Have got a few new nominations:

• apples which have gone wooly inside
• people who speak loudly in restaurants
• faux-chocolate bars or crisps that boast "only 0.3 calories" - that isn't a selling point.
• people who repeatedly press the button at pedestrian crossings
• colleagues who don't take the mandatory legally-obliged lunchbreak then moan/boast about how busy they are
• people who sit in the aisle seat on busy busses despite the window seat being vacant
• products marketed as "containing 10% real fruit!", as if we've all forgotten that fruit contains 100% real fruit

[GCW]

On a similar note, packets with stupid warnings.  Peanut packets that proudly proclaim "May contain nuts" etc.  What happened to common sense.

[dave]

What happened to common sense.

probably learning his lines for Terminator4.

[Jim]

can I nominate burning the roof of your mouth when eating food that is far too hot when you are starving eg pizza or in my case beans on toast.
Its gonna hurt for days

[SA Chris]

I hear you. I have blistered the roof of my mouth doing that.

[BenF]

• faux-chocolate bars or crisps that boast "only 0.3 calories" - that isn't a selling point.

Alongside people who ask for "low fat Coke" or "fat free Coke".  Or try to cut out all the carbs in their diet to lose weight and think that eating just fat and protein is a sensible and healthy way forward.  Or people that moan about being fat, so won't eat a sensible, balanced lunch and instead eat a packet of crisps or a "diet" chocolate/snack bar.  And take the fuckin' lift when they could instead use the ten steps to get to the next floor.  Heaven forbid these people actually use their legs. 

And people that park on double yellows so they can get that extra twenty metres closer to their destination rather than park in the empty space a whole other side of the road away.  And stupid Cheshire twats in their huge 4wd vehicles who park as close as they can to the primary school next to where I work.  This often means using their "off road" capability to stick their behemoth on the nice, round, grassy parking space roundabout.  Or even to park across the side entrance to our school (quote from stupid twat: "I left my car there because no one was using that entrance and I was only going to be a few minutes").  Or walk a few extra metres maybe?

[SA Chris]

On the back of that, fucksticks who park illegally or use disabled spots at sports centres / climbing walls so they don't have to walk too far to go and do their exercise.

[BenF]

People who park in mother and baby parking spaces when their offspring ain't with them.  The spaces are for parents AND children together, not for people who happen to be parents.  I've heard this justified by a woman who said when asked why she'd parked in one of these spaces, "I do have a young child you know".  So fuckin' what, they're somewhere else.

Never saw the need for them in the first place, there's always lots of empty space on the far side of the car-park 

[dave]

I always wonder if i could get away with using those spaces if I go anywhere with my dad.

[saltbeef]

The British weather.

after yet another week of english holiday weather my carbon  footprint will be growing in the future. fucking rubbish.

Yes yes fucking yes.
I hate that...

Dave I have to admit I do press the pedestrian crossing buttons a lot when waiting. But its more an OCD-must-touch-the-button-a-certain-number-of-times-lest-the-universe-be-destroyed-kinda-vibe.
Please forgive me.

Sorry, i totally disagree with this one

I don't park in disabled places but I don't see why I should be discriminated against just because some fucker has decided to breed. If you decide to have kids then you can fucking walk across the car park with them like everyone else has to

[Drew]

just because some fucker has decided to breed.

That's beautiful. Really... beautiful.

I think it may have been mentioned already, but people who drive with Fog Lights on, or people who drive in the gloom, with no fucking lights on at all!!!, And people who don't know that they don't have right of way when the cars are parked on their side of the road, and then come steaming down the centre of the road directly for you. And people who drive at 40mph in a National speed limit area, and in a 30 zone! And people who pull out in front of you, and then very  v e r y  slowly speed up to 50 mph, even though you had to slam on the anchors from 60mph (ish) not to rear end them! And people who drive on the line (either the inside line, or the central lines). And people who don't understand what a dual carriageway is!

I love driving me. I just hate drivers!

OCD i can handle, but i have a nasty suspicion that most people doing this think it will make the crossing cycle come around quicker. same goes for people who do it when waiting for a lift.
