figgy Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 I find the older I get the more pet hates I get, to the point that pet hates are a pet hate I hate bad manners no need as it costs nothing and the worlds a nicer place to be with them. Hate the incompetence of our politicians and governments, they should be held accountable for any cockups they make and not make us pay for them. Sodding text typing, the butchering of our fine language. The list is long very long so ill stop now Figgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddoakley Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 No manners when driving is one of my pet hates too but not as much as tail gating!!!! It really boils my p... also littering. Why do people think its ok?!?! And those kids you see walking down the street with their hands down the front of their trousers!!! And......so many things!

Paddy Galore! Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 +1 and the monkey that pushes the button at the pedestrian crossing and then walks out into the traffic anyway before the lights change, and the monkey who can't be ***** to walk ten yards to the pedestrian crossing and just hangs about in the middle of the road twitching like a spaz as he's about to make a dash for the kerb, and the monkey that pushes the button on the pedestrian crossing then changes his mind and carries on walking... grrr brings to mind another thread, ban pedestrian crossings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingnut Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Unfortunately I do not have one pet hate, my list is as follows, it all seems to revolve around driving as I seem to spend most of my working week travelling the length and breadth of the country 1) people not using their indicators when driving, it seems they have almost become optional extras, 2) people not using headlights in bad weather 3) people in expensive cars that still insist on holding phones to their ears-even though the car has Bluetooth fitted as standard. 4) people tailgating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Kids with their trouser crutch around their knees and their pants on display. People that fly tip . Those that shoot things to dump along a roadside and the shooter who will happily shoot the only bird / animal X he has ever seen just because he can.

tonker Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 (edited) My two pet hates are people who drive down a country lane and wont go within 3ft of a hedge or ditch on their nearside, forcing you into the hedge or onto the verge your side just to pass And my real hate is how people are now not willing to wait if you are passing a row of parked cars on your side of the road, you can be half way past before they arrive their end (fair enough it may be their right of way) but they come boring in and expect you to get out of the way. On the roads down here you have nowhere to go, so traffic jam ensues. Aggresive driving makes my blood boil, so I drive straight at them in the Disco and they soon mount the pavement and get out of the way ( who's aggressive now) Edited January 3, 2014 by tonker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welsh1 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Lane discipline on the motorway,get out of the middle lane you twerp Fog lights on in the rain, the clue is in the name of the lights FOG you idiot If you are female and drive a range rover learn to reverse as i will not reverse half a mile while you have a gateway 20 yds behind you,it's your own stupid fault you reversed into the gate post On the rare occasions i am forced into a supermarket i hate the people who have a chat with their mates who they haven't seen for at least 1/2 an hour and block everyone,likewise if you must shop with 20 kids please don't let them treat the isles as their own playground. I could go on but i may pop an artery,so best to stop now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sha Bu Le Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 More or less all of the above plus people who park on the wrong side of the road at night with their headlights on. Strange how it seems to be 75% taxi drivers up here. People who park their cars/vans outside of their houses but on the pavement at a major road junction, drivers emerging can see squat. People who get on a town bus and tell you that you are sitting in their seat. Ooh many a up and downer with those muppets, usually "big Mikes" seat who turns out to be a decade or two short of 100 but has enjoyed ! some kind of notoriety in his past. Probably more if I could be bothered to think about it long enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Mongrel- Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 so I drive straight at them in the Disco and they soon mount the pavement and get out of the way ( who's aggressive now) Yup, and in particular a battered, old, Discovery moving with any real pace, seems to move traffic like Moses parting the sea. Lane discipline on the motorway,get out of the middle lane you twerp Fog lights on in the rain, the clue is in the name of the lights FOG you idiot +1000! Far from it, sticks out like a sore one. Indeed, I decided to leave it, I'm TRYING to be less picky and argumentative online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bicykillgaz Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Old people not thanking me for opening doors, moving out their way or just been generally rude. People not answering back when I say morning to them when I'm walking the dogs Pricks on push bikes riding along the footpath along the riverbank where I walk my dogs who cycle straight towards me with no intention of stopping, then when me and the dogs step into the grass they don't have the decency to say thank you, bearing in mind this is a footpath put there for dog walkers not a cycle path! Just general rudeness really as manners really don't cost a thing other than a second of your time, but say so much about you as a person IMO.
