This is a question 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?

Petrol stations
Specifically, people who queue just to get a pump on the side of their car where the fuel cap is.

Then again, my irrational non-hate (is there a word for that? Nate. Nave? Lave? Love?) is pulling up to a pump with a fuel cap on the wrong side of my car, nonchalantly running the hose round the car, filling up, paying, and getting back into the car and subtly mouthing "knob" to the guy STILL queuing.

I like the cut of your jib.

I don't mouth knob (fnar!)
I just let the driving away while they're still queuing speak for me.

yup
a lot of people don't seem to realise that a 9ft hose will stretch around their Corsa.

Fnar indeed...

I am female and weak
and never have the strength to drag the hose round to the wrong side.

Maybe I've got the technique wrong?

Oh come on,
you're just doing it on purpose now, aren't you...

Try pulling on it.
It's not going to magically extended itself.

Or take a man with you, and have him do it.

Read out of context, this seems rather off.

Hahaha
I *love* reading that out of context!

It's true though, those pumps are heavy when you have very little upper body strength. Mind you, I can't ride a bike so I am a bit of a fail in general...

A lot of petrol stations now have signs stating that the hose will reach both sides of the car.

But people continue to queue . .

Whats worse
Are the cunts who stop right at the entrance and block it so that they and only they get the right to choose the shortest queue. Heres a thought, have a quick look and join the queue for the pump you want, this allows the long line of drivers behind you to do the same and utilise the forecourt space better so there isn't a long queue clogging up the access road. Arsegikes!

My clunker runs on autogas
it takes f-u-c-k-i-n-g ages to fill up & there are only ever a maximum of 2 gas pumps at any servo. Most of us "autogassers" will politely move our vehicles out of the way once filled when we go in to pay. Not so the wankers who I have to sit behind whilst they spend 5 min. filling up (usually on petrol NOT gas but meh - going to happen anyway) but then go into the servo, spend 15 mins. shopping & come out with 764 placcy bags full of stale, over-priced servo junk food! I could have filled, paid, got home and be cracking my first coldy by then! Chaps my chuddies that does.
Interestingly the autogas nozzles reach both sides of my car too!

round our way
You'd probably have ten riot vans and armed officers there in a jiffy if you looked like you were going to get in your car before having paid ;)
