Really minor annoyances


When you are just finishing off at a petrol station and because the other side is clear, some inpatient fucker nips through and pulls in front of you. Almost every time that happens, two cars arrive at the other side. Now instead of them waiting 10 more seconds for you, you have to wait 10 minutes for them.
They are always the type who don’t pay at pump and pick up a few bits at the shop.
 
People who get on a bus, wait for the driver to ask "where to" before rummaging about in the bottom of their bag or going through their pockets for money, card, phone. Why not have them at the ready?

that happened to me at asda boldon last week. i had to reverse out then drove in front of him and made him wait for about the same time as it would've took him if he hadn't been an impatient tosser.
most annoyances on this thread are triggered by impatience.

Greggs pasties. Absolutely shite when compared to actual pasties from Milligan's or Cooplands.

Greggs cheese pasties are an absolute abomination

Had one from Cooplands recently and it was shite. Only went because Greggs had just closed and Cooplands hadn’t got round to closing up. Never had the cheese ones because they sound bland as fuck, much as I like cheese. Always corned beef or sausage bean melt for me and they’re class.

Only going off my own experience, which was that the Cooplands one was shite and Greggs ones are always class. Next time I pass a Cooplands one and am hungry I’ll give another one a go.

The innards of a Greggs cheese pasty is just pure white mush. Doesn't resemble cheese on any way . Doesn't even resemble food. It's awful. The pastry is alright

At least with Cooplands the filling tastes and looks like actual cheese

Like I said in me other post I’ve never had or get cheese pasties so I wouldn’t know, even what Greggs ones are like. I’m presuming Cooplands will do corned beef so I’ll try one of those for a like for like Greggs comparison. Think me nearest Cooplands is the Galleries.
 
When people try to sound educated by saying 'yourself' instead of just saying 'you' like a normal person. E.g. "that's completely up to yourself", etc.

Although it's a good way of outing people who are thick, which is never a bad thing.

Impatience or lack of awareness and consideration. Like people who stop and chat in supermarket doorways. They blank you when you politely say excuse me, but look really pissed when you loudly tell them you would like to leave the shop.

Usually by that time there are a dozen others wanting to get out too. They had not noticed those either.

There's a Cooplands in Chester le Street. It's half way up Front Street, opposite Lloyds Bank.
 
When people say "hope you have the best day" when it's someone's birthday.

"At this moment in time". Just say at the moment or even just right now.

Years of age instead of years old annoys me as well for some reason.

“Right now” you say? What’s wrong with “now”? What does the “right” add?

“Right now” annoys me. It’s “now”!
