Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage

[Robert Poste's Child]

Platform 15 at London Bridge in the rush hour.

Patrick Jane's white socks.

Purchasing from an independent coffee/tea/sausage roll outlet to be given a napkin from a chain alternative.

When at a roundabout, driving a car, and the person you've given way to (as per the road rules), waves a thank you as if you've done them a favour.

This has happened so many times in the last week I've lost count (I live right by a mini roundabout). I'm just following the rules, don't thank me!

[the-e-dealer]

Well being over polite is annoying but not a hanging offence!

[KidKruger]

Pickle - it's so aggressive on the roads I think people are just showing appreciation.

[Pickle]

Completely appreciate that politeness is a good thing, that's why I recognise my rage as being irrational :)

I have long since given up on anyone going straight down Underhill Rd through the roundabout giving way to me.

I still find oranges cause me rage, but I probably mentioned that back on page 2.

Trip to the theatre ruined by people yakking and troughing. Friday night audience come up to town for the evening, determined to get their money's worth, laughing at everything regardless of whether funny or not. Seats clearly not designed for 21st century fat people. No 12 bus home next to man with stinking MacDonalds and drunk people with amusing ringtones. Wish I'd stayed stayed at work.

No doubt this has been said before but as I am currently in a hotel it's really grating. Waiters and waitresses that say "enjoy". Grr

[KidKruger]

Waiters should bring and advise on food, that's it.

It's not a personality contest and customers don't need counselling on how to experience their food.

[mancity68]

People who queue 10minutes for a bus and only start looking for their pass in their voluminous handbag when in front of the driver.

[Robert Poste's Child]

Use of 'super' as a general intensifier.

[Parkdrive]

people that insist on wearing a hoodie with the hood up and sunglasses on a hot summers day!!!!! Sunglasses fair enough, but unless you suffer with a medical condition which requires an individual to dress accordingly what's with the hoodie, what's your excuse? Is it a new hipster craze?

[the-e-dealer]

No, hoodies have been around for ages.

You don't say? Doesn't answer my question though does it? On a boilng hot summer day, why?

[steveo]

I think hoodies should be superglued to their faces back to front

With no eyeholes

People who call Dulwich Hamlet Dulwich Hamlets.

Surprising the amount of people that do that, used to drive me mad when I used to watch my son play for the youth side 5 years ago.

[Jah Lush]

Yeah, even born and bred locals who should know better. I'm looking at you Otta.

When my son played for the under age teams what drove me mad was kids talking about headering the ball. What the hell is headering? Did your son play for DH prior to the youth team PD? Mine one is 23 now. Stopped playing @ U14's

Indeed, the phrase is "heading". Clearly some of those using the headering term have been listening to too many pundits, god help them. My son is also now 23, he played for them until he was 18, he was managed by a guy called Ian, during his last season they won the London cup 5- 1. There was a lot of politics going on around that time, ground sharing with Fisher and all sorts, financial shenanigans. When the lads got to the end of that season they were all released as they were too old and none were taken on by the then manager, again political. Very sad.

When have I done that? Think I've been known to refer to going to a match as "going to the hamlets" but I don't think I've ever called them Dulwich Hamlets and if I did it was an error.

I dunno, all these johnnie-come-latelies, popping in for the first time since 1846 now there's a sniff of success in the air.

Bloody glory hunters!!!

Haha!
