Driven to MadnessCaptain Placid asks: What annoying things do significant others, workmates and other people in general do that drive you up the wall? Do you want to kill your other half over their obsessive fridge magnet collection? Driven to distraction over your manager's continued use of Comic Sans (The Font of Champions)? Tell us.

A pearoastPeople that advertise stuff they own and SPELL IT WRONG!
FFS, you have the thing in your posession, you've even photographed it WITH THE FUCKING LABEL and you still can't spell the name of the manufacturer/appliance. I've seen 'Pannasonuc' (Panasonic), 'Martyn' (Martin - on a guitar ad showing not only the headstock logo but also the inner label - both clearly showing MARTIN) and 'Ovartiun' (Ovation - another guitar ad) all in the last week!
It's simple to get it right, just copy out the label.
Drives me (even more ) insane.

Before their search function got better at predictingI used to get ebay bargains by spelling what I was looking for wrong and finding the auctions that literate people missed

Still worksI got something worth about fifty quid on eBay for 99p the other week because the seller couldn't spell "Memphis".
