Vanwa Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Buying myself a really fancy metal bookmark only to remove it from the packaging to find that there is sticky tape on the back. Having removed the tape, to my extreme frustration, the sticky part has remained. I mean really, do some people have no common sense? If I put this in my book, when I remove it a page of Odd Thomas is going to come out with it! /rant off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewell Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 We've had a spat with our neighbours about just that. And not only did their dogs do their "business" in our yard, they also tried attacking me in my own yard. Said neighbours also have no fence or wall around their front yard, which means the dogs are free to walk about as they please. I suppose what really bugs me are our neighbours. Thats awful Scarlette! I'm bugged by that for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paperplane Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Non-paying bidders on ebay. My how they make my blood boil Especially since it's my only source of income at the moment. I got the 'oh sorry I didn't bid on your item, someone else did without my permission' earlier today. So who did then? The dog did it? A ghost? They're a repeat offender from looking at their feedback, some people need a hobby rather than sitting online wasting other peoples time.

Nollaig Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Certain people bug me to no end, but I'm pretty sure I grate on their nerves too so HA. Getting rained on when I have lots left to do. Missing parcels from the postie and having to work out some way of collecting them from the business park which is situated in the middle of nowhere. Budget cuts. On the above note by Paperplane - ebay sellers who take DAYS to respond to a query, and those who don't ship tiny tiny items internationally. When I sold regularly on ebay, I had all queries sent to my email that pops up the minute I get it, so people got responses between immediately and 12 hours later. Also, I shipped to some pretty strange places at pretty much unbeatable postage rates. Grr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ned Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 People who try to sell you stuff door to door, no means no so don't act all shocked and hurt and call me rude when i tell you to clear off after telling you numerous times i don't want your product. Also Mormons, when i say i don't belive in God why not just leave it at that, don't ask me why, i don't ask you why you do and shove leaflets and booklets in your face to prove my belielfs so please don't do it to me. Those "please hold, you are number 15 in the queue, your call is very important to us" messages, hold? this is costing me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mexicola Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 People in the street or shops having no spacial awareness or consideration for others i.e walking slowly and blocking the entire pathway, people in front of you stopping suddenly, bumping into you and not apologising. People with no manners. People slamming doors or making any other loud and unnecessary noise. Littering. I detest littering. And spitting in the street.

northernnutter Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Littering. I detest littering. And spitting in the street. In total agreement with you, Mexicola! Spitting is one of my real hates! Foul and disgusting. Also, people gobbing their chewing-gum on the pavement, which usually ends up on my shoes, and lovely carpet!! Ughhh!!

Kylie Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 People in the street or shops having no spacial awareness or consideration for others i.e walking slowly and blocking the entire pathway, people in front of you stopping suddenly, bumping into you and not apologising. Ooh, all of these are among my pet hates. And people who walk straight out of a shop and straight into your path without looking as they leave the shop. And this is when I'm a couple of metres away from the shop front. It's even worse when they come out and just stop right in front of you. Go with the flow people! Or move to the side, out of everyone's way, if you need to decide where you're going next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echo Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Honestly, right now, Twilight is really bugging me. Other than that, I'm not so keen on turning 30, or doing my homework. The agricultural history of the Pacific Northwest is really boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissy Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I loved turning 30, and was even happier when I hit 40. YOU ARE WOMAN ~ Let's hear you roar! (I'm with you on the Twi!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissy Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I am not keen on turning 36 (especially when my nephew asked me if there was newspapers when I was young ) That made me laugh out loud! I work with someone who is the same age as me but looks about 30. I don't know, I just felt when I went into my 30's and then my 40's that I was arriving at the age where good things could happen, or perhaps more like that the bad stuff wouldn't bother me so much!

Mexicola Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 After a trying bus journey today I was reminded of another bugbear - people playing their music outloud on public transport. Wear headphones! I don't want to listen to that inane drivel you call music and now I can no longer hear my friend speak. Nice one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maisy Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Workmen, sorry workpeople or delivery people not turning up when you have taken the day off to wait in for them!!!!:motz: ...and people not indicating when they are turning left into the road you are turning right out of.

Weave Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Lol. How old you nephew?

Peacefield Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Awww, Weave! Silly kids . Below zero temps bug me .

Also, adding to peacefield's list: cars that don't start due to cold, apartment management shoveling all of the snow into a giant pile right by your car so you have to stradle a mound of the stuff to get near your car, and people who try to cut you off on ice making you hit your breaks and fishtail.
