yet another list
yet another list i'm afraid and in no particular order

1. people who get a drink in a busy pub and then stand at the feckin bar. Get the f**k out of the way so I can get my liquid refreshment!
2. fog lights on cars used when there is no fog
3. stupid stories on B3ta that end in tenuous puns (thankfully this trend seems to be dying)
4. cars with stuck on body kit, after market wheels, and general Halfords tat.
5. People with absolutely no clue what's going on around them, including people who walk in pairs on narrow foot paths and have no idea I'm stuck behind them. MOVE!
6. Starting a sentence with the word "like".
7. Confusing there, their, they're and all the other usual examples.
8. Dole scum who sit and complain about "the foreigners" stealing the jobs they have no intention of doing.
10. dole scum who refuse to change their circumstance.
11. serial breeders who don't pay their own way and expect me to fund their baby farm.
12. Poor parenting. The kids are badly behaved because of your parenting or lack of it.
13. Fat people who refuse to take responsibility for it. (I'm no super model but I know why I have those extra pounds).
14. In a survey or 2 people, 50% agreed or other such crap. Survey a decent number of people.
15. There is no percentage ABOVE 100% (Xfactor is awful for this). I cannot give you 110% it's not possible.
16. People walking up to my desk around the generally accepted lunch period of between 12-1 or 1-2 and saying as i'm mid sandwich "oh are you on lunch?".
17. People walking up to my desk when i'm already doing a dozen tasks and asking "oh, are you busy?".
18. People who stop me while i'm carrying a box of paper/printer/PC/something heavy and asking "do you have a minute?"
19. I guess, mostly just people who ask me things!?

I could go on (and i'm sure I'll keep editing with additions), but this will do for now.

re your point 15
If I earn £100 and my boss gives me a raise which takes me up to £210.
As a percentage how much of an increase have I received ?

i'll give you that!
it's an irrational anger, I know there are arguments for and against but it immediately gets me angry whenever I hear it whether right or not :)

You may wish to edit it to 'unless used as a comparison' or something along those lines.
The I'll be with one million percent!

I think I'm going blind.
I'm sure I read the topic as "tell us your irrational hatreds" rather than "please demonstrate what a reactionary prick you are by listing daily mail clichés".

"People with absolutely no clue what's going on around them, including people who walk in pairs on narrow foot paths and have no idea I'm stuck behind them. MOVE!"
I think you may find a simple
"Excuse me"
will suffice.

you'd think so wouldn't you? Sometimes it works but not always

I used to work with an American prat who must have thought he was the Yankee equivalent to Noel Coward. Couldn't open his mouth without some lame, malformed joke or witticism spurting out.

One time, he was on form and while we listened awestruck (with dismay) he managed to string ten of these dreadful wordplays together, before someone recovered enough composure to physically gag him.

I must apologise for the fact that this story ends with ten US puns.
