Example:
- Drivers who turn without indicating - Because Its just lazy and dangerous
- Mobile Phones - The stupid ring tones just bug me!

I soooooo agree with the point about non-indicating drivers - as a pedestrian it makes my life a whole lot more dangerous!

Another gripe of mine is technology - when it doesn't work that is, and you can't figure out what the problem is.

Oh, and people being untidy and treating their entire office space as one big bin ...

.... there are so many other things that the forum just isn't big enough

What annoys me?

Users who dont post!

We spend hours, even days running and administering this site. Then all some people do is download the quiz answers without even saying "Hello and Thanks...."

Its rude and ignorant

That annoys me too vinyl junky!!!

The other thing that really annoys me is people who believe the world owes them a favour just for being born.

I hate people that are always late. There's nothing worse than waiting around for someone to turn up when you're on a tight schedule!

Oh yes I agree with that one!

It annoys me even more when you have a hopital appointment and the consultant is late

That's bad.. it reminds me of when I lived in a shared house.. food was always going missing. I blame the beer myself!!! Not good at work though as you tend to trust your colleagues!

I'll have to agree with the non-indicating driver gripe. Our city has a bit of a bad reputation as having the worst drivers in Australia, and a lot of the time that is justified. Not many fatal smashes at all amazingly, but just lots and lots of little dingles and crashes. I coined the phrase "indicator tax" to try to explain why noone indicates. Obviously it costs money to use your indicators, so thats why people avoid it at all costs, except after 7pm when it's off peak rates.

Although strangely enough, the same people who don't indicate and change lanes straight in front of you are also the same people who will sit at a green light and wait for a personal invitation almost before moving off.

Yeah, you lot are pretty bad.

Further to the "lateness" discussion my wife used to be the absolute worst for being late. I hated it, but solved it by leaving her at home & going without her to parties/movies/dinner a few times. Sure, it caused fights and arguments but now she's always on time.

Funny, those who are late are usually happier than those who are waiting for them....
