Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage

[StraferJack]

oooh - i just remembered another one. Getting to the end of the journey and the train/bus is now largely empty but the person sat next to you just won't go and occupy and empty seat - it's just you and a stranger sat close together

[the-e-dealer]

I find that really cosy.

[StraferJack]

it's you isn't it??

On the subject of buses, the tosspot bus drivers that just pull out from bus stops at the same time that they start indicating, just as you are driving past and then give you a mouthful of abuse for not letting them out. They do not have right of way.

[StraferJack]

I thought the highway code said they do have right of way?

"Section number 198 Buses, coaches and trams. Give priority to these vehicles when you can do so safely, especially when they signal to pull away from stops. Look out for people getting off a bus or tram and crossing the road."

[the-e-dealer]

Thats the privelege of driving such a big thing. Everyone usually gets out of the way. !

I don't see what is wrong with this one and if it bothers you so much then you should go and occupy the empty seat.

What annoys me is when you are on a busy one way road sitting waiting patiently at the traffic lights to head straight on and multiple drivers try to jump the queue of traffic by driving up the lane which is meant for drivers turning right and then indicating for you to let them in! I have sat here for several minutes why should you be able to just cut in!!! Unless you know the rd you probably won't get this but it happens everytime and makes me feel a bit better to rant about it on here. Last time I confroted another driver about this after cutting ahead of me through the lights he wound down the window swearing at me and threatened to shoot me!

Is this on South Circ?

Marie - this IS the irrational rage thread

I don't mind sitting next to people generally but when it's just the 2 of us on the upper deck of a bus and it's a stranger, it's just a bit creepy. Even if it is the-e-dealer

I'm sat by the window - if I ask the person to move just so I can sit somewhere else that seems rude. Whereas if they just voluntarily sit somewhere eelse that seems normal

Ooh just thought of another one, people who insist on letting their dogs charge over off lead to me and mine (who is being trained and on a short lead) and the owners are nowhere to be seen or busy chatting on their mobile. Then when you ask them to call their dog back they just look at you as if you're crazy. Oh and the man today in the park who was walking his dog whilst in season!

StraferJack: I didn't read the thread title properly sorry, deleriously tired just read the rage bit!! I once knew of someone who got a shoulder massage off a complete stranger sitting behind her on the nightbus once, when I asked her why she didn't ask him to stop she said she was quite enjoying it...nutcase!

I was waiting for that one! I was going to say it in my last post but thought I'd let someone else get in there instead, I find your posts quite predictable. Don't mean to cause offense by saying that.

Really? VHS could fill its own thread. Remember 'tracking'?
