joe Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 What really bugged me today was the fact that when I went to the library with my 3 year old and 20 month old instead of being able to talk to a friendly librarian while taking out my books i was told to use the self service machine, not easy with 2 little ones. Whatever happened to being able to talk to people? I usually like having a chat with the librarians but they now want us to issue our own books and to drop them back in the drop in box, this really annoys me. Soon we wont need librarians any more, as it will all be self service,very sad. Quote
Rawr Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Having nowhere to store my books. Big problem. Quote
lexiepiper Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Having nowhere to store my books. Big problem. I'm having the same problem, my bookcase is overflowing Quote
ned Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Having nowhere to store my books. Big problem. Arrange them into the shapes of furniture and then you can throw the real stuff out Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 There might be a flaw to that if you try to sit on the books Quote
ned Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 A minor flaw i agree, ok, keep one chair and never invite anyone to your house Quote
aquarius91 Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 This list could be long! Here goes: - When driving and other drivers don't indicate. - Long queues - Nosy people who get involved in other peoples business, e.g. when a complete stranger comments that your hanging over the line by a centimetre when parking - When stood waiting to cross at a zebra crossing or lift etc and someone else comes along and presses the button as if you've just been stood there the whole time not knowing how to work it. - When someone keeps not hearing what Ive said and they say what, pardon, what, i cant hear you. After repeating it 4 or 5 times I usually chuck something at them. I could go on but I really must go to work now! May come back to this thread later! Quote

After repeating it 4 or 5 times I usually chuck something at them. I agree, very annoying! Oh and when complete strangers tell you to 'smile' or 'cheer up'. That makes me mad. Quote

After repeating it 4 or 5 times I usually chuck something at them. Well I wear hearing aids and I hate having to ask people to repeat themselves, or just not being able to hear people, sometimes I just pretend I can hear. It's worse when people get annoyed at me for asking though, it's not as if I do it on purpose. Quote

AbielleRose Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 The fact that after hours of watching it and several Google attempts, I'm still no closer to understanding curling. Quote
Univerze Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Browsing an online book shop site, or just websites about books, and realizing it will take me forever to read them all, and that I just don't have the money to buy em all. Seriously, my wish list is getting longer and longer, and if I'd read all the books that sound interesting to me, I'd have enough to read for like, a decade. If not more. Too many books, too little time. So depressing. Quote
Nicola Booth Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 People who sit in the cinema with their mobile phones on and text. Can you not do without your mobile for 2 hours? Grrr Quote
Johnny Carson Whit Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) Gossips and gaggles of ****** women! Have I already said that? I think I have...oh well they do REALLY ANNOY ME! The fact that it's edited out the word I wrote gives the impression I used a far worse word, that I would like to clarify I didnt. Edited February 22, 2010 by Johnny Carson Whit Quote
Dimitra Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 People who sit in the cinema with their mobile phones on and text. Can you not do without your mobile for 2 hours? Grrr May I add people (women especially) who make their hair in a way that bothers your view and of course people who talk or laugh at inappropriate times. Quote
StephenKingman Posted February 23, 2010 Posted February 23, 2010 Just noticed this thread now. Lots of things annoy me but up in the front would be people who literally stand right next to you in queues, they are so close you want to push them away whilst shouting 'get away from my space!". Some people are so close to you and then they edge you forward the second the queue moves a mere inch as if they are going to get to the top any faster! Quote
Nollaig Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 May I add people (women especially) who make their hair in a way that bothers your view and of course people who talk or laugh at inappropriate times. That's me I'm ALWAYS laughing at the worst time. Someone dies in a movie, I crack up laughing. Two minutes silence for something, I start giggling. Someone tells a really awful and offensive joke, I'm gone Quote
Cookie Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 Oh and when complete strangers tell you to 'smile' or 'cheer up'. That makes me mad. Yep! This really gets my goat! Quote
Nollaig Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 Mexicola & Cookie: agreed! The worst is when they say, 'it can't be all that bad' and I feel like listing the reasons why you don't have to be living on the street to be having a particularly hard time of it. Quote

Some people are so close to you and then they edge you forward the second the queue moves a mere inch as if they are going to get to the top any faster! I hate that! It's annoying if you're in the supermarket and trying to pay, particularly if you're using a card, and someone will stand right behind you. Or if you're at the cash point. It's the same as when people sit next to you on the bus when there's other completely empty seats. Quote
Rawr Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 Negative people Inconsiderate neighbours Self-centredness, what irritates me more is people who are so hilariously blind to it Politics Food that goes off when you open the fridge thinking it is still okay Quote
ned Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 when people sit next to you on the bus when there's other completely empty seats. but if they don't you wonder if you smell or look like a nutter Quote
