Said this before, but being on hold, constantly being urged to go on their website instead, when the reason you're ringing in the first place is their website is f***ing shite.

Another one, clatter who think you close doors by braying them like fuck against the door frame.
There's a mini roundabout at a Morrisons I go to that is big enough that you can turn right and miss the roundabout completely. This is not good when there's cars coming from the right and the knackers are breifly facing oncoming traffic.
I never know why so many women try to put the passenger door through the driver side door when closing it.

People that don’t acknowledge you on the roads when you’ve shown a courtesy gesture like letting them turn in the road.

This should be probably be a separate thread but people on telly programmes who appear to have very little general knowledge simultaneously amuse, entertain… and annoy me in a minor way.
I’m speaking generally about quiz show contestants who don’t seem to know stuff that I thought was common knowledge. But the missus reckons I’m being a twat coz maybe it’s just they don’t know something that I do. Doesn’t make them daft.
But then, on last weeks Gogglebox; the one where they talked about the northern lights and the two lasses from Durham had a chat about it.
“How can it be anything to do with the Sun? It was dark. The Sun wasn’t there”
“The Sun’s always there. It doesn’t disappear”
“Aye. But the Sun rotates around the Earth so it wasn’t there when it was dark”
The ‘fact’ that the Sun rotated around the Earth was repeated by both lasses about 3 times each.
It amused me. It entertained me. But it also annoyed me. In a minor fashion.

when you're driving the wagon and go into the fridge for a nice cold can of orange, take a taste and only then realise that for some sackless reason tesco put their own brand ginger beer in an orange coloured can. bastards 
This boils my piss. Also makes you spend longer in the shop

While talking on the phone to the husband/wife at home asking what they want for their dinner and reciting every single item on the shelf.

There's only one hand drier in the gents at work and you always get someone taking an age to dry their hands causing a queue to build up behind them. Just needs a quick rub and a shake. Get on with it!
People not being ready to order and pay immediately after spending an age waiting in a queue. Why wait until you've got to the front before starting to think about what you want and having your payment method ready in your hand and not starting digging around in your handbag.
Can't stand people dawdling when others are waiting.
