Yes, irony, I'm afraid.
If I have a snack tonight, it'll be 'all natural' lemon jelly and cream. Very virtuous.:(

I almost want to send Brunneria in for that. I thought I had been missing out on a tasty snack.. Think I will go make some popcorn for the hell of it!
 
I want to put in dark nights that signal the end of summer.
 
Ooh Had to post in this thread :)

1) People who stop in doorways or stand at the top/bottom of an escalator in public
2) Shop Assistants who when handing you their change put the note first then the coins balanced on top all sliding about
3) Goat's Cheese..... I hate it.... and I hate it when people I love eat it and their breathe smells of sweaty feet for the next few hours
4) Anyone who mispronounces common words.... my mother-in-law pronounces the word logo "log-oh"
5) That moment when a plane lands but the doors are not open and everyone stands up with bent necks doing nothing... just sit down and wait until we can leave you will not get out any quicker.

I could go on :p

At 29 my wife likes to call me a grumpy old man

Great stuff

Similar to the doorway blockers, people who get into the swimming pool, then stand in a line by the wall at the shallow end talking to their mates and stopping me doing flip turns on the pool wall. Then if they do decide to swim, swim in a line three or four abreast, very very slowly, taking up all the space, still chatting. Can't get round them. If they want to chat what the heck are they doing in the pool? Then the buggers get out and use their cheap, nasty toiletries that stink to high heaven. Usually don't shower BEFORE getting in the pool either.
 
Great stuff, and welcome Bailey!

Yes to the door hovverers (well kick them in through THIS doorway, eh?
And all the other suggestions.

Re swimming, I would like to nominate everyone who swims at a different speed from me.

I mean, how unreasonable! If they just settled down (or bucked up), things would go sooooo much more smoothly.

Ok, Brunneria and Pipp need to start synchronised swimming lessons.
 
Synchronised swimming should be put in!


And snobs!

The hyacyhth bouquet type and the posh ones who are really insufferable.

Harry Enfield had a snob down pat on his TV show!

Totally agree

Usually a specific type of middle aged woman

My dad used to know a few.

The type who would look down their noses at me for not doing much during the summer months for being a student when in reality they have been looked after by their rich husband all their lives.

Yes, but now nosher has defined snobs.
Could think of a few snobby blokes to chuck in too.

Oh and anyone objecting to synchronised swimming. I just booked to have my make up tattooed on and sequins sewn onto my swimsuit.

GPS that sounds like Margot from The Good Life . (I can't believe I drove along answering back and swearing like I did. Patronising bi*ch . In the end I was turning left instead of right out of sheer cussedness. ) All this with a crate of pi**ed off ducks making a racket in the back:banghead:

"Diabetic" cookbooks! Heave 'em in, say I ! Especially the one I was looking through today that ends each recipe with "Mindful Morsels"

"Use Lo Salt . Sodium is bad for you."
(In Breakfasts) Control the amount of caffeine you consume, caffeine is (yes, you guessed it ) bad for you.

Am I the only person in the world to be apparently driving around swearing at no one, a crate of ASBO ducks racketing around and a salt lick and bulletproof coffee clutched in a death grip ?

Oh and those ducking noisy little sods can go in too...

No you are not! Mr Scandi has banned me from watching Wallander if it's the English one with Kenneth Brannaugh. As I type this, I can feel my bs rising. For crying out loud they even mispronounce his name. W is pronounced as a v in Swedish! It's not hard! There are loads of pronunciation errors, despite it being filmed in Sweden and they pronounce the town where the character lives as if it were a town in Germany. Then they change parts of the story! Grrrr! And it's so mind numbingly boring! So I vote for Kenneth and his proxy badly acted, boring tv series. Not the Swedish version. Especially the one with Krister Henriksson who is the best Wallander ever!
 
...I'd love to chuck in Russell Brand, eeks, even typing his name makes me grrrrrrrrrr.....would probably have to throw him in more than once as his brains are made of rubber and he'd bounce back out....:mad:
 
All computer manufacturers who issue the driver disc with just a pretty picture on it. If you have assembled lots of computers then finding out which disc is the correct one can be quite damaging to the machine. While I am here, and I have mentioned it before, the anonymous mains adapter is equally annoying. I don't know what some of them are for.
 
If we could please let me apparently errant eBay buyer our of the room please? His 24 incarcerated with all those dogs, yoof and the snobs inspired him to pay. My only concern is he could pay, when there's no internet in there?

Best get to the Post Office today.
