"Guys". Hi guys. I'll be over in a few minutes to take your order guys. Everything alright with your food guys? I wasn't even eating at a budget restaurant.

Mentioned it before on here, but people who start their answers to a question with the word "so" do my head in.

I.d forgotten the sponsors substitute announcements. How bloody annoying were they on Tuesday. Can't say I.ve noticed them to that extent from my usual seat in the Ninian Stand before. I hope Warnock regularly gets the starting xi correct, to limit the number of those bloody announcements we have to listen to.
Fridge doors that hinge on the left- a terrible blight on society that needs to be outlawed at once.
What about when you're in a rush in the shop and as you finishing paying to join the exit walk there's about 3 people in front walking snail speed side by side to block the whole aisle... and then stop because they want to get fags.
You obviously don't get the psyche of Pompey mushes who have existed for centuries, winning innumerable naval battles, on the basis that they are down-trodden, worthless under-dogs who should be underestimated at your peril. We are scum - famous for not being famous - until the nation depends on us, and then we rise up with a fury that is terrible to see and give entire continents a bloody nose. We come from an island off an island and have the smallest-minded insular mentality psychologists looking down their hoity-toity noses have ever examined - until they wake up from a right battering. Portsmouth boys revel in being put-down, for then we delight in smashing all the odds to vanquish the mightiest of mighty foes.
Oh, and can we have our clock back, please?
(from a 'son of Trafalgar' - and proud of it!)
Woman that push the pushchair out onto the road thinking they have to stop when they put they're own toes next to the kerb and push the pram slightly onto the road without even looking.
People that are stood on the bus stop and as I approach in my taxi put they're arm out, as though they are about to flag me down, then just look at the time on they're watch as I pull over.
Those deliveroo bike riders on the road. Absolute pain in the backside the way they swerve and hog the whole road
Oh Lord, where do I start ?? Probably my age but there seems to be a constant flow of annoying debris that comes my way each day.
How about staff in restaurants who say 'ENJOY' when serving you, as if it's an order. Another crappy Americanism.
Oh, the best [or worst one], football related. People like Hoddle and now others who refer to 'OFFENSIVE' players/tactics, instead of attacking. A perfectly good word used for 150yrs, replaced by one that has a totally irrelevant and confusing one -another Americanism !!
Using the word 'ordinary' to describe a poor performance.
It has been adopted from Australian cricketers (or cricket commentators) and - I think - is supposed to give the message that anything less than exceptional is not acceptable. It is OK when used by Australians to promote their winning mentality (alongside 'drongos', 'bush tucker' and 'poms') but sounds totally false and fawning when used by the English. Very ordinary!
Taxi drivers who think they own the road especially in cardiff
People who reinvent themselves on facebook and have changed from being Wayne Sleep to Lenny Mclean
People who use the term "that awkward moment when....."
People who take the trouble to pick up and bag their dogs shit and then chuck it into a tree or hedge.Some even carefully hang it on a branch.
What's that all about?
People who throw fag nips out of their car window, especially when I am driving behind them.
Next door neighbours who have never worked a day in their lives driving around in a brand new 2017 Audi Q3 paid for by the tax payer.
The look on the bloke next door's face as I drive past in my fancy Audi (paid for by my disability benefits)
Miserable old git.
People who wear huge rucksacks to work and bash them into you on trains , lifts and crowded
places. Wannabee Quasimodos the lot of them.
People who don't give you a thank you wave when you let them in a queue of traffic.
The Americanisation of English especially the use of Impact.
Where and when did the term Brit enter the English language?
Try explaining to our colonial cousins over the pond that if we are Brits they must be Amers.
When it comes to correcting them that what in fact they should be saying is Britons they look at you perplexed, as if the addition of o-n-s at the end of Brit was just to much to comprehend
