This is a question Driven to Madness

Captain 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.

I work in the middle of Mordor. As such, there is a local Sainsbury's, which services all of us local dull, grey, faceless office drones for our lunch needs.
Thus come lunchtime it is packed, but us old-timers have it down to something of an art, and I regularly pass familiar strangers as I go through the same rhythms as they do of selecting that day's gobblefodder.

Now, I understand them moving everything around to increase impulse buying and stuff, but lunch? Lunch is lunch is lunch is lunch. We all go to the same bit at the same time and get the same stuff.

Why on earth change it? It's completely fucked my rhythm and now I'm going to have to waste precious seconds working out where the hell the bloody sandwiches I generally like are, which could be far better used standing around bitching about my colleagues, or going on B3ta.

Bastards. Hanging - I'd pull the lever.

Really, stop comparing London to Mordor
Mordor's got a lot more going for it than the eternal cesspit.
