Things that annoy you more than they should.. 11:44 - Nov 12 with 29886 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'. | | | | |
Things that annoy you more than they should.. on 05:36 - Nov 14 with 2053 views | Churchman | People you are in say a pub with that constantly look at their mobile phone and text. You either want to be here having a drink and talking nonsense or at home playing with your phone. If the former, put your toy away! Oh and on mobiles, people that talk into them on the train for the entire journey. Yes, I am sure you are important and want to tell the world how great you are, but I really don’t care. Shut up! | | | |

This has happened on a couple of occasions this year. I went to a gig in London at the Troxy last week and the volume and amount of people talking over the quiet segments detracted from the much of the performance. Went to the toilet and at the back were lots , and I mean lots, of people sitting on the floor in groups on their chuffin' phones. Incredible. | | | |

For example, something along the lines of this… “Home en. Hopefully I’ll get 4 hours sleep 🤣 #ITFC” *other examples are available. | |

On that note (no pun intended) new releases now just ‘drop’. Another term which has become fashionable all of a sudden. And don’t get me started on the excessive usage (mostly incorrect) of the word ‘Random’ | |

No rhyme or reason to its usage… it’s often quite random, isn’t it? | |

When someone ahead of me asks ‘can I get a coffee’, I’m always tempted to ask the same and if they say yes then vault over the counter. I haven’t plucked up the courage to do it yet. | |

..."*amount* of people" People are not quantities of topsoil, rubble, coffee or sugar that you measure in tons or teaspoons. They're individuals, and counted as the *number* of people! | |

"Can I have a BIT of cake?" ...... "No, a bit goes in a horses mouth you div, you meant a piece" I think every time. | | | |

Nice fruit scone, take knife to cut sideways in two, knife bends! Scone rock hard. Fantastic huge raisin scone, full of raisins, warmed up, some Flora margarine starting to melt out onto fingers, strawberry jam likewise, juggle huge scone two handed to mouth...whole scone disintegrates into small pieces onto table into lap and onto floor. | | | |

On that, DJs that talk over the intro or the end of a song. If you don’t like it, don’t play it. If you play it, I want to hear it through, not you droning on about what’s coming up at 11.50. Shut up!!! | | | |

Enjoy that brief moment of synchronicity with the clerk. I can guarantee you they hate having to upsell as part of a performance review metric more than the saps like us on the other side of the till | |

Just a theory but I reckon that goes back to the old days when radio-cassette players were popular. The DJ would talk over the intro or outro so that the recording would be spoilt then anybody who wanted a decent copy would have to go to the record shop and buy the single. That would stop the pirated copies and generate more income from record sales. Uppa Towen. | | | |

Piggybacking off this, wedding DJs are almost always awful. They never seem to do good transitions, BPM is all over the place and my favourite is when people are actually enjoying something and then they just switch it out for something way worse. And they'll charge insane amounts for all of this. Better off with a radio playlist! | |

Invitations at the till or checkout to donate to charities, usually that incorporate handling fee payable to - you've guessed, the retailer. If I want to donate to charity I will do so from my own inclination, and more importantly to a charity that I choose and have assessed as suitable. | |

Things that annoy you more than they should.. on 10:25 - Nov 14 with 1657 views | quad | People who use the word 'actually' to try to win an argument. As if adding that word suddenly makes something a fact, and that makes them right and you wrong. Boolarks. Similarly people who say 'end of'. Who are they to decide it's the end of the argument? If I completely disagree then I'm gonna carry on disagreeing whether you try to tell me I can or not. Who made you the boss of everything all of a sudden? You're 'a melt'. What sort of sad word is that and what does it even mean??!! | | | |
