Trivial things that get on your nerves
People who don't pronounce "th" and replace it with a "f" or "v" sound instead. Like ovver instead of other. For **** sake it gets on my nerves, more so than ever.

Re: Trivial things that get on your nerves
When out running, women who veer towards you and thus breaking your stride and momentum. You feel like throwing them under a bus.

Re: Trivial things that get on your nerves
The phrase "right now" - seems to have crept into everyday conversation. It is ubiquitous and very annoying

Re: Trivial things that get on your nerves
Saying "of" instead of "have" - and even worse, writing "of" instead of "have"!

Re: Trivial things that get on your nerves
At the match last night , the announcer reading the half time scores and just reading the word Nottingham . Not followed by Forest or County. And then adding a little later saying Newport were drawing nil nil, at Southampton. So my gripe is employing announcers at our football club who don't know bugger all about football. I also feel the same about some of the sports presenters on BBC Breakfast, who are just faces who know bugger all about what they are reporting about.

Claire Summers on BBC Wales, trying to look excited, or even interested, when she's talking about anything that isn't rugby.

If they said Nottingham then you should know they're not talking about Notts County.
I get your point though.

Another Americanism picked up by the easily assimilated.
Something that does bug me a little is the use by (almost ;) ) every person under the age of 28 of the word 'like', like every, like, other, like, word, and, like, stuff.
I mean .. c'mon ..like.

You don't have a 12-year-old daughter, by any chance?

People with all the time in the world who chat away to the check out lady at lunchtime oblivious to the queue behind them.
Cyclists on pavements.
Women who clatter me with their handbags on the train in the morning.
People who stop at the top of an escalator so you pile into the back of them.
People who take their bikes on the train clogging up space so they can ride 200 yards to work.
Cyclists who barrel through pedestrian crossings on red lights.
