I can’t stand it when people insist on checking the balance on each of their 5 accounts at the cash point, study the info slip, and then put their cards back in to take a tenner from each.

People not queueing for the bus or pushing in. Or pretending to look at the bus timetable (which is usually at the head of the queue) and then staying there.
People who complain about how long they've been waiting for the bus but then fish for their fare when the bus arrives.
People who complain to the driver about how long they've been waiting and hold up boarding the bus....JUST GET ON WE'VE ALSO BEEN WAITING AND WANT TO GET HOME.
Spitting.... really is there any need? Also 'hocking' it sounds disgusting (men and women are guilty of this)
Sniffing....use a tissue and blow.
Body Odour...Please wash. This is the modern world and we have anti-perspirants and soap now.
Pregnant women smoking (and their partners) ... Shouldn't this be classed as child abuse? Would you give a new born baby a cigarette rather than a dummy? NO...then give up you weak willed moron. This applies to alcohol as well.
Rant over

Some tosspot in a filling station, paying by credit card for a fivers worth of fuel, and taking 5 minutes to do it. Any normal person carries at least £20 in cash nowadays, and those idiots using credit cards as a pose do not impress or endear themselves to me, one iota.They are how they act, thicko's with a first ever credit card, trying to impress the bored uninterested masses. Pissing everyone off in the meantime.

Where shall I start? Not necessarily in the right order, but here goes:-
Thoughtless behaviour towards others.
Spitting.
Judging people by their race, colour, appearance, what clothes they where etc.,
People pushing past smaller or to them less important people to get to a certain point first. This happened to me the other day and I was literally pushed to the ground.
People who buck the system - and get away with it! I know several people getting benefits they are not entitled to.
Liars getting away with it!
Men beating or threatening women and believing that women exist entirely for their benefit.
People who "know best" when the clearly do not! I have caught my mother out many a time, but she will not admit to that!
People who do not respect that other people are entitled to their tastes and opinions! I love my mother, but she has given me no option as to how I decorate my house. She pays so she has 100 percent control (in her mind). She even rang me today to tell me where my new wardrobe should be positioned!
I could go on but I would be in danger of busting my spleen!

Oh that annoys me too! And people who stand right behind you when you're using the cash machine.
People who don't keep doors open for you as well and just let it slam in your face.
And people who stop in the middle of the street/ shop to talk to someone and blocking the path.
People who listen to their music full blast not caring about other people.
When you're looking at something on a shelf and someone stands in front of you.
Oh theres loads =P

I hate it when a smoker takes that last puff as they go through the door and flips that butt behind them.I also hate it when people talk on cell phones in places of business. Can't they just call back when their business is finished? I hate it when people yell at their kids in public. Settle them down then discipline them at home. I hate it when people are turning and they slow their cars down to almost stopped. Whats up with that? There are so many things that irritate me in public I can't think of them all. I guess I should stay home Huh?

the whole cash point thing, definately. slow walkers. people pushing in at the bar. people who have forgotten how to say please, or thankyou. people spitting in the street. people eating in the street. women ahead of me in the supermarket, who KNOW they have to pay, yet wait until they get told the amount to decide to get their card out. no love, you can't pay iwth your blockbuster card. no, that's a storecard. GRRRR!!!
people littering. people who think i'm a thug just because i have a shaved head. and number one of a very, very, very long list:
shouting. i mean, i don't care. i don't want to know your business. if you want to tell someone 2 or 300 metres away something, then walk over to them. it's not hard, no-one cares about your petty little life, you foghorn-mouthed putrid little chavs.
sorry. here, have that can of worms back. you might find it's been opened though...

A little old lady who is looking for every nickle, dime, and penny in the bottom of her purse. She knows that there is a line behind her and she is keeping people waiting while she keeps shaking her purse to find the change. When she FINALLY gets all the change she needs out she swears the purse is SO much lighter now that she has done this. You roll your eyes as she shoves everything back in.

I hate it when people make out in public. Its ok to give a small peck on the cheek or even the lips, or to hold hands. But to totally get into each other and moan, groan and grope is just so discusting,... save it for the bedroom.

People who carry furled umbrellas horizontally with the pointed end facing behind them and who then walk with their arms swinging so that the people walking behind them are in danger of a nasty injury.
People with huge rucksacks who board crowded trains and then attempt to turn around without warning.
People who do not acknowledge in any way when you hold a door open for them in a shop to let them through.

I hate it when I'm on a bus or train, and the people sitting opposite or in front of me are getting intimate, be it kissing, or petting, i find it so uncomfortable.
I don't know where to look.
I can't stand it when people walk slowly, or slower than me, and they take up half of the pavement, so i can't overtake them.
I can't stand young people that stand around in shopping areas, trying to intimidate others, it's just pathetic.
