Little things that irritate you

Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

The girl in Fitness First Romford who goes on the treadmill and sets it at walking pace, but then hop, skip and dances along it? Like she's a cheerleader or something. WTF? I don't know why it bugs me, but I have to get her out of my eyeline as it annoys the hell out of me.

Me too.

The annoying thing is that all of these people believe that there are two ways of pronouncing it.

There aren't, "haytch" is not acceptable and is only used by those who were in the slow readers class at school :lol:

People who eat egg sandwiches in my general vicinity. You're asking for a clobbering, even if you don't realise it.

Dark bottomed tea mugs. How the hell are you supposed to see how strong your brew is? (Assuming you're not a pleb who puts your milk in the cup first.)

I would imagine it's because she's an attention seeking moron with an especially low intelligence level.

At a guess.

I once watched a girl get on a treadmill and after 10 minutes, she'd walked 800 metres.

Hear hear to all of those sir. :clap:

Squatski - love your tirade against McVities!

Can't help but be irked by the new TV ad for Sainsburys's car insurance, where the bloke gets hit in the head by a football, then this ghastly kid with a big ginger afro comes up to the car, picks the ball up, no word of apology, pulls a weird sickly face and then ***** off. Clearly never been told off by 'Soccer Mum' (another irritating phrase in itself) in his life. Drives me mildly nuts...

Fat white English girls doing a black-American-woman-on Jerry-Springer-style 'hand off' "what-EVER!!!" during a discussion they don't understand or cannot contribute meaningfully to. Lunch hour sucked today...

My old friends at the Halifax have launched their latest cringeworthy 'advert'. At least this one doesn't focus on one particular person 'singing'.....

Those Direct Line adverts with the couple featuring the bloke with the smoothed back grey hair who is one smug tw*t and just asking for a kicking. The Aviva ads with Paul Whitehouse equally as bad.

when you're eating a pizza and all the cheese come off on the first bite, burning the roof of your mouth in the process, rendering every subsequent bite painfully distasteful.

I f****** hate that.
