Things that annoy you more than they should.. 11:44 - Nov 12 with 29868 views_clive_baker_

The guy in the row behind me at PR who calls Harness Harkness. Grinds my gears.

Non football related but people who overuse the word 'genuinely'. The only thing worse is when people say 'generally' when they really mean 'genuinely'.

1. People who don't have any consideration or spatial awareness when parallel parking (so taking up 2 spaces or parking at the end of the row and leaving half a car's length to the line). Absolute b@rstewards of the highest order.

2. Pedestrian crossings where the green/red man lights are down at hip height on your own
side (invariably hidden behind other people) rather than on the opposite side in the direction you want to go and higher up so they're easier to see. This one really metaphorically grinds my gears

‘Norwich City, were coming for you’

Only our fcukwit of a fan base could sing that, when we’re above them in the league. Absolute dullards.


Clearly means in the derby though.

Truly impaired.

When presenters/reporters say that they're "reaching out" to people/organisations. Why not just say that they're contacting them.

Absolutely instead of yes a bit tedious...
Group instead of team or squad...

Think you're incorrectly conflating the two words there.

You'd think it's become a criminal offence to answer 'yes'' in an interview, instead the now apparently mandatory faux-enthusuastic "abso-LUTEly".

Fanbase instead of fans.
Second guess instead of guess.
Front-foot/back-foot.
The use of "I" when "me" is correct.
"Absolutely"
Machestunite instead of Manchester United.
Weather forecasters who say the temperature is colder/hotter "than it should be."
The price of Adnams in The Greyhound.
Roadworks traffic lights when the hole is in the pavement.

But mostly I'm quite chilled..........

Or if the question is being asked of a footballer, they can't just answer 'Yes' - it has to be "100%", thus also showing their mathematical prowess.

Week in, week out.

Day in, day out.

So you mean "every week," or "every day." Both of which are easier to say.

People who say:-

Matalands instead of Matalan

And brought instead of bought - I.e "I brought this is Matalands the other day"

Slow walkers. Even worse, a group of slow walkers taking up the entire pavement.

Even worse still, a group of slow walkers all having a chit chat and a laugh taking up the entire pavement.

Chutneys.

I mean I like bhangra and I like reggae but it is difficult to mix the two.

There again if someone had told me that circus music and hip hop could go together I would have shook my head. My son played me a tape by someone who had done just that and it was hilarious. Clowncore rules.
