Really minor annoyances

However...

...the absolute bells that continue overtaking at a 0.1mph speed difference when it's clear the vehicle inside them may have to allow others to join the main carriageway. They are invariably the "straight ahead starers" with no concept of road/traffic conditions.
Then you have to drop to 55 because you have reached a lorry, and as your speed drops, so does the overtaker, so it still takes a while for them to get past. You stick your signal on to turn right to overtake and not one of the next 30 cars stacked up behind the slow overtaker lets you out. You end up pinned there for ages, get passed the lorry and find that you overtake at least two thirds of the people who would not let you out, within minutes.
 

Or maybe start a 'when did you first realise you're education was shite' thread
:lol:
I dunno. Maybe they thought if they slightly annoyed a few oldies who asked themselves ‘when did that Rick Wakeman, join Slade, dress in glam-rock gear, change his hair colour and appearance and play silent keyboards on “Come On Feel The Noize” then?’ they’d get more donations.
I'm not sure people put off by that were every serious about making a donation, surely?

I don’t think they’d be put off from making a donation no. I was just sharing my own cantankerous old git mild annoyance about an advert. And I like to believe that I’m not the only one because it makes the universe a less frightening place for me.
 
Put brakes on, put handbrake on, check glove compartment, check hair in mirror. Start turning at 5mph, still encroach other lane or mount pavement.
Oh they always take it well wide as well as if they expect a couple of rhino's to be stood chatting on the edge of the path around the corner or something "woah, best give a wide berth here"
 
drivers who dawdle doing 45 on the single carriageway bits between berwick and alnwick on a clear, sunny day.
drivers who speed up on the dual carriageway bits when they realise a wagon is overtaking them.
drivers who come to a stop on the a1 to let someone out of a side road bringing the main road from edinburgh to london to a stop.
drivers who can't keep their car within the lane markings on roundabouts.
drivers who struggle to know which lane they need to be in on said roundabouts despite it being on signs and in painted git big arrows and letters on the road.
drivers who chop and change lanes when it's chocka.
drivers who do 30 through the tyne tunnel southbound.
the bellend who thought it would be a good idea to put traffic lights on the hartlepool turn off junction resulting in standing traffic on the a19 every day.
:D

The thread title is "minor..."
 
When I'm trying to use phone contactless to pass through public transport ticket barriers in rush hour and Google Pay does that f***ing moronic "verify that it's you" thing while a queue develops behind me and and I've no idea how much I'll be charged now that I've placed my payment method on the reader 12 f***ing times
Doesn't it have a setting for public transport so you can go through without even unlocking your phone?
 
The thread title is "minor..."
they are minor. no good getting irate behind the wheel of a juggernaut. just plod on and enjoy the view. the sunrise over bamburgh this morning was spectacular.

i'll admit the last one really gets me irate. there'll be some unaccountable bellend fresh out of college sitting in an office playing with toy cars on a desk who probably only rides a pedal bike who's caused havoc with numerous amount of accidents since it was implemented. i'm really surprised there hasn't been a fatality.
 
When pubes get stuck between my teeth
Ask your other half to trim down his nuts then?

(Aside from the lame attempt at humour I’m slightly serious here as it’s been a long time since I’ve known a bewer to have a Terry Waite’s allotment😆)
 
No such setting on my Samsung android app

In any event the stupid f***ing cunty shitbag keeps making me verify almost every day for various things. The ****

Mine has started doing that too. I verified it in H&M, then immediately walked to the car park and had to verify myself again to pay for my parking. Not sure what it thinks I got up to in the two minute walk from the shop to the car park 🤷‍♀️
