Random Irritations

people that bang on about merge in turn being faster just so they can push in at the front

I agree that it's 'not faster'! Simply the proper way to merge!

It's the guys that want to push in 'out of turn' and the guys too frightened to merge that cause the problems imo. If the guys merging were 'conservative' and queued in turn (as oppposed to 'pushing in' then it would work a lot better imo - though there'll always be the occasional 'cheater'.
 
1. People that stay sat down in their seat on the train until it has come to a complete stop before then sorting out their coat, bags, umbrellas etc and holding everyone else up

2. people who get on the tube and stop just inside the door and turn around, leaving everyone else to then try and squeeze past them....move down the damn carriage!

(you'll notice a lot of my moans are commuting related)
 
Seeing that people going to watch golf are dressed in full golf attire....just why? you're not playing.

When I've been to watch the only thing I wear that's different to playing is trainers instead of golf shoes. So I'm still in shorts & polo. Not sure what I could wear that would be different... maybe a foam letterbox or a sparkly number with all my mates dressed the same :p

Oh and I generally don't wear a glove :D
 
People that use their mobile phone on loud speaker to then hold it against their ear (holding it horizontal) to listen to what is being said. Just hold it and use it like a normal phone!
 
Sitting on the train to have a smoker sit next to me who has obviously inhaled about 1000 fags just before getting on their short journey. Then opening a bottle of red wine just to full stink me out....

Much the same thing happened to us on a 5 hour flight once. Only the guy had bad breath, smelled of sick ,poo, urine and garlic.
I quietly asked the stewardess to get moved and luckily there was spare seats.
But the guy ended up with 3 seats to himself.:mad:
