Irrational Hatred
People who say "less" when they mean "fewer" ought to be turned into soup, the soup fed to baboons and the baboons fired into an active volcano. What has you grinding your teeth with rage, and why?

This question is now closed.
Fucking Marks and Spencers changing the food all around every five fucking minutes so I go in quickly at lunch and I have to search for everything again while dodging fucking zombie 90 year olds with their shopping trolleys.
I am so going to write to their customer complaints dept this weekend.

I have an utter irrational hatred of the fact that
the things that my parents have an irrational hatred of, have now become things that I have an irrational hatred of. One such thing is the phrase "off of", such as "Hi i'm John, off of London". No you're not, you are John FROM London. I guess I am just a chip off of the old block

Okay, this is totally irrational
There's a guy who I've been doing some work for. He's higher up in the organisation than I am, and also older than I am, yet he insists that everyone calls him "B". That's it, just "B". He's a grown man who still goes by a nickname.
The smug, irritating, motherfucking cunt.

Speling and gramer
For using "it's" instead of "its", "must of" instead of "must have" and sticking a bloody apostrophe before every "s" at the end of a word, professional signwriters, authors and even some journalists should be sent back in time and forced to go to school all over again.

3. The presentation of the product in tin foil reminds me of junkies
4. Your big dangly earings distract me from any potential purchase

Actual irrational hatred: Spider webs
I'm not overly keen on spiders, but they don't send me mental like Mrs Vagabond (honestly - she's unique and lovely in so many ways, but when it comes to spiders she turns into an absolute stereotype girly), but the webs - god the webs! Argh! They proper send me spastic - I hate everything about them, including the sound and feel - argh I'm getting upset just thinking about it - when they snap. Ugh. Have to go and twitch now.
Ergh.

*EDIT*
I hate Scarpe!
When I'm in a car: Everyone else in cars, on foot or on a bike.
When I'm walking: Everyone in cars and on a bike.
When I'm on a bike: Everyone in cars and on foot.
Whenever I drive with a passenger, I take great delight in pointing out how everyone else cannot drive. I think I'm turning into Jeremy Clarkson :(

The get/have annoyance
People who go to the bar and instead of saying “Can I have a pint of Grolsh” they say “Can I get a pint of Grolsh”. Much as the bar person would probably prefer you to get it your bloody self that’s not what you’re actually asking to do, is it?

Fuckers who park too close.
Besides the parental spaces issue, I HATE coming back to my parked car to find some cunt has parked 6 inches away from my drivers side doors and left a whopping great gap on their other side to ease their own alightment.
It's so annoying to try to squeeze in while my zip/buttons/keys are scraping up and down the side of their car! Once both of my temporary carparking neighbours looked like they'd side-swiped barbed wire fences by the time I gave up and climbed through the boot.

Not sure if this is off topic because ...
... as far as I'm concerned this is a totally RATIONAL hatred.
I fucking detest these people who take their children to the supermarket a have them standing in the trolleys. Who knows what they've been walking through and so potentially transferring onto people's foodstuffs.
And that's not to mention the spineless managers who are too lilly-livered to tell their customers to get their kids the fuck out of the trolleys (often as per the instructions illustrated on the trolley handles). Cunts ... one and all.

Tescos
I suppose its not irrational, it's very very rational.
Their pricing is clever - you might think its cheaper, but it really isnt. The endless deals mask the real intention which is to distract you from the fact that the things you buy at 'normal' price to make up for the 'saving' from the deal. On a large scale, this makes them more expensive. For example, they know that someone who buys X, also buys Y. X is currently on 3 for 2 (3 for 2? Rarely is that a useful deal. How many people go in for 1 but buy 3 thinking they're on to a bargain). However, they also buy Y, which they have neglected to notice, has gone up in price, saving you precisely fuck all.
The only way to beat it is to go in regularly, and only buy things that you usually need when theyre on offer - and only after comparing online with the other supermarkets.
So my irrational hatred? People who dont check what they're buying and just blindly buy "bargains".

Bought and brought...
People using the word 'brought' when they mean 'bought' really really fucks me off. Especially as the 1st people I heard using it were working in my office... in the SALES department.
It seems to be a mark of intelligence as the 2 scrap yards on the road we used to live on (rent was cheap) also used it on their signs: 'cars brought for cash' and 'scrap brought 4 cash'.
Also, people in shit cars sitting in the overtaking lane of 2 lane motorways/A roads (hello all you A42 fans) when there's nothing in the inside lane for about 2 miles... I can go faster than you and I would rather not have to dive up the inside to prove it!
And... R&B

Since we've pretty much
abandoned the 'irrational' bit of the question, here's a list of grammar/spelling mistakes on emails from people at work.
- 'What's your rational?'
- 'I would of...'
- 'Its lost it's way'
- 'I heard your coming on Thursday?'
When we recruited a couple of graduates, I had to hold a quick training session to explain the correct use of apostrophes. These people have degrees. I just don't understand how you can get a degree and not be able to write. Youth of today, etc...

a pearoast
I am a Sikh and I was working on the International Space Station recently. NASA said that because I was a Sikh, I was to wear a turban in case other Sikhs saw footage of me without one and could be offended.
I protested, saying that my space helmet wouldn't fit over it, but they were having none of it.
According to the roster, it was my turn to go outside and fix stuff. So I had to go outside, with no helmet and just a turban to protect me from the cold vacuum of space.
That certainly made my blood boil, I can tell you.

Family Love
Mmm, a completely irrational hatred?
I simply cannot stand it when people harp on about how "happy" they are with their family life, how "blessed" they are someone has approved a request on Facebook to be known as your sibling.
Seriously? You're perfect right? So the screaming hissy fits that you have on Facebook are only signs of love? So you just brush your problems under the carpet until next time?
Either acknowledge that you're a "common" family who screams, shouts and then kisses and make up or shut the fuck up please. Your smugness in your pretense makes me want to see how far I can shove a red hot iron up your collective arses.
