Forum Miss Bimbo, fashion community / What drives you nuts? - TOP Irritations

Oooh, annoying kids who play their ringtones when they're walking around or on the bus. Not everybody wants to listen to your tinny and naff music kids... turn it off!!

And the parents that take their kids to supermarkets. Especially when their kids are wearing those god awful roller skate shoes. If I had a pound for every time I've been knocked into by one of those screaming brats, I'd be rich... or at least a little better off than I am now

I can honestly say that when I have children, they will never be allowed anything that can be considered as an annoying fad.

Yes, Cally, hopefully that kid did learn a lesson. I hope his parents offered to pay for the door.

I can't remember.  It was really an "OMFG" moment.

Irritation number 3 :  My mother-in-law buying too many gifts for my children, especially after she's been explicitly told that we have no more room!  GRR

People who leave things lying around after them. For example taking dirty clothes off and just leaving them on the floor instead of putting them in the washing basket, leaving dinner plates on the table and not scraping left overs in the bin, when people dont make their bed lol i could name a million things that irritate me

Oh.  Do you know my husband?

Hmmm... can't tell, do you have messy flatmates, children, or a man who can't clean up after himself?

Another thing that drives me nuts, which is not included, is when you have dry feet and the skin catches on clothing, blankets, etc.  Drives me absolutely crazy!!!!!!  I guess I could always just pumice, but you know, I'm busy.

Oh i really hate people who cough and sneeze and dont cover their mouth/nose. Its grose!!!! I usualy always end up sat next to those people on the bus then they turn and smile at me as if sneezing all over the place is something to be proud of erghhh yuck!

But I think what I find worse than all of that is when I see young girls and guys looking for boyfriends and girlfriends online. The young girl one's I find the worst because they don't seem to realise the dangers out there! When they do that, it just makes me so angry that I feel they deserve what's coming to them!

I found the love of my life online, and I absoloutly love what come to me when I met him! Im not being funny but I dont think you can comment on things you have no knowledge of. Fair enough if you are under 18 and posting half naked pics of yourself all over the internet but I was 18 at the time and wasnt exactly looking for a boyfriend. Just happened. So I agree with you if you mean little girls giving it away but not if you mean everybody who dates online in general.

Considering I said young girls and guys, I thought I was making it clear enough that I meant the under 16's. Those crazy teens that pop onto miss bimbo and other sites asking if people want to see their pic's or looking for boyfriends and girlfriends.
At 18 you're an adult not a young girl.

Another pet peeve I hate it when someone misinterprets what I say, because it only means wasting time explaining myself. Not a dig at you Ella but you kind of reminded me.

people on the freeway who are in the fast lane that don't belong there! and the ones that won't get out of the way for the faster moving cars coming behdin them. It irritates me every time!

right, many MANY things, some of which have already been mentioned, i think i agree with pretty much everyone!!!

- slow walking people who take up the whole path/road/corridor so you can't get past - you must know you're holding people up, so why do it!!! once a person realised they were in my way but instead of moving out of the way when they could they just smiled smugly at me - arrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!!!

-people who cough/sneeze without covering their mouths, especially all over me on the train/tube sounding like they have emphysema (sp?) - if you're THAT sick, stay at home

- the noise plastic wrapping makes, especially people eating something that comes in plastic wrapping in a quiet place, like nails down i blackboard for me

- people who don't say thank you when you e.g. hold a door open for them, or appologise when they bash into you in the street

- people who talk on mobiles in restaurants - it's just rude

- poor grammar (tho i expect there will be some poor grammar in this just to spite me!)

- kids who play music loudly on their mobiles - i just don't get it, the walkman was such a huge success cos it meant you DIDN'T have to inflict your music on everyone else! headphones were invented for a reason!!

- people acting awfully/neglecting with their kids, such as the story earlier in the thread about the young mum in mcdonalds, i just can't stand it, take care of your children!!!! i don't mean the odd incident where a mum looses her rag and shouts at her kid who is playing up in the supermarket or whatever, i can totally understand that, i mean people who clearly just have no regard for the well-being of their children

- just generally, people who are rude, there's no need, it's not going to get you anywhere.  i get unbelievably irritated all the time (can you tell?!?!) but i don't tend to explode with rage until the person is out of range

- incompetence (don't get me started) and general stupidity - i don't believe you don't get it, you're just doing it deliberately either to annoy everyone or to abdicate responsibilty

- people who stop in front of the ticket barriers on the underground, blocking the way for 5 mins while they find their ticket/oyster card - FIND IT BEFOREHAND OR AT LEAST MOVE OUT OF THE WAY!!!

- people who put things that are clearly non-recyclable in my recycling bag - the bin is right next to it, all you have to do is open the lid, its not THAT difficult

- when whole class fulls of people at uni just won't participate at all - waste of everyone's time - apparently they're scared...well, in my opinion, you want a degree, get a backbone, or else get out of my class.

i'll stop now, i'm sorry, i guess i'm really not very tolerant!!!

oh i also hate people who dont thank you when you let them go whilst driving!!! these people have NO COMMON COURTESY!!!! many taxi drivers do this and as a result i no longer let taxi drivers go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
x x x

I hate people who don't give up their seats for the elderly disabled or pregnant on buses reains and other public places! It's so freaking rude!
