FabSwingers.com forum: Those minor annoyances that shouldn’t frustrate you, but do..

By (user no longer on site) OP
over a year ago

People that get to the supermarket checkout, then when it’s time to pay take about 10 minutes rummaging through their handbag to find their purse, then take an age to open it, seem to have to go through a process of deciding whether to use cash or a card, then decide that actually they will now present that 10p off coupon that they should have presented at the outset, then eventually find the right money, pay, then take about another 10 minutes making a whole palaver about putting their purse away again before they move on. Gahhh! You know you’re about to pay, just have your purse and coupons ready ffs …

Then there’s those people that queue at the petrol pumps so the petrol cap is on the right side of the car nearest to the pump, even if the opposite pump is empty.

You do realise the pumps are long enough to reach around the car if the petrol cap is on the other side, right? Still if it means I can jump the queue to get my petrol quicker you carry on queuing …

What other little things annoy you that really shouldn’t?

I had a bad case of what I later found out was vertigo a while back. Thought I had a brain haemorrhage or something, really scared me, the room was literally doing 180 degree turns and violently sick. Horrible experience and yep, nothing to do with heights!

You see cheese......... I recognise all those things you say. In others and in myself.

1. Blame the supermarket for the 'system'

When i have paid. I NEED time to pack my shopping and secure my purse and card. While i'm trying to do that the next persons fucking shopping is hurtling down the belt and mingling with mine.

I do put my card in my pocket more often than not and then have to stop somewhere to be able to put it away where it belongs.

Once you've paid , shops don't give a tuppeny fuck about your goods or you.

2. Petrol Pumps - I'm a five foot four woman , older without upper arm strength. I CANNOT pull the hose out all the way and get it over my vehicle..... PLUS why do I want the fucking filthy hose rubbing all over my car ???

On the odd occassion that I have got the hose over I am filthy and knackered.

Things are EASIER for the Supermarket and Garage - not the customer

Needing a pound to get a trolley, not having a pound, then doing a shop with a basket, having way more than a basket full, forgetting your bags, being to tight to buy some, struggling with arms full of products walking back to the car, dropping shit every six foot and not being able to bend down to pick it up so you just kick it the rest of the way, get to the car and cant get the keys out of your pocket, rage and drop the lot on the floor, open the car, chuck the lot in anywhere it lands, speed off in a huff all because you didnt have a fking pound coin!!!

"Fog lights, when it's not foggy

Had a bit of that yesterday. Foglights are the most unsafe safety requirement ever invented. 99.9% of the time they make things worse. They dazzle, and mask brake lights.

One of the other things that gives me the right raging hump is standing behind people for ten minutes in the queue at a fast food place, who get to the counter before deciding what they want to eat. Like they’ve not been stood in front of bloody menu long enough already. And it’s McDonald’s FFS (other “restaurants” are available), it’s not exactly haute cuisine. I know what I’m ordering before I’ve got off the train.

My current bugbear is a Fab related one. Follow-up messages from someone, when I didn’t reply in the first place (I apologise in advance for that in my profile, as I can’t reply to everyone).

- Hellooooo?

- U not interested then?

- Not like what u see?

- U not chatting?

Aaaargh! If interested, I’d have replied in the first place. And text speak doesn’t help

Like Granny said, private messages sent outside of a forum post are pretty annoying. I can see ‘shag’ on the forum post, so I don’t need it reiterated in a private message.

Like, I know, this person hasn’t responded to my message so I will just bombard them with follow up questions as that will make them realise they do really want to chat to me after all.

If they want to queue for their fave pump that’s absolutely fine , but get out my way or get bumped.

Absolutely this. Canal towpath, I drop in to run behind her ladyship to take up less space, couple coming the other way side by side with brain dead dog off the lead beside them, none of the three moves and we nearly trip over the dog while they make stupid ineffectual noises and not one apology.

Most often the dog has more awareness and manners than its owners and gets out the way but every now and then you come across one as equally stupid and lacking awareness so I have a new plan. If I'm approaching someone with a dog that they clearly have no control over or make no effort to ensure that the combination of them, the dog and the lead (lead is often optional) are not taking up the whole path, instead of relying on the dog having a brain I'm just going to run straight at the people. They can then deal with tripping over their mutt instead of me having to and the big plus is if I crash into them I don't feel any guilt like I do when some poor dog gets an accidental kick as I try not to go flying coz the idiot creature has changed direction straight into my path.

"When you allow a driver to turn right out of a side street, and they are not paying attention

Just go if you have right of way. Cos my niggle is the people who think it's up to them when I move out and not up to me or the highway code. "

I do, but by then they’ve seen I’m waiting for them, but have moved off again which then forces them to stop bang in the middle of the road

For me it’s the “OK” button on a computer.

As in, “you cannot open this file that you desperately need to see” then you have to click “OK”

Or you do not have permission to use this “OK”

Or “your computer has just crashed” “OK”

No, it’s not fucking ok! Why make me press click on something I totally don’t agree with!

I'm right aren't I ?

I'm an Audi driver; I thought it would have been more obvious from what I had said. I'm a very considerate driver (to other competent drivers), and I think that purposefully holding people up is childish and cringe and I have zero respect for that type of person.

If someone isn't a confident enough driver to drive without hesitating and isn't courteous letting lines of traffic build up behind them then I genuinely think those people should SORN their cars and let people with the ability to drive get where they are going.

Driving well under the speed limit is dangerous. If it's reasonable to drive at 60 on an A road; not doing so means a line of traffic builds up behind you and then people are forced to overtake you. Sounds to me the old "not a target" excuse is just a way to misdirect people from your lack of driving skills.

I don't like small hatchback vehicles because the people who drive them are usually the type of people who do the things that annoy me. Hesitating, driving really slowly, being indecisive etc.

It's mind boggling that they don't have an upper age limit on driving licenses too. The reaction time of someone in their 20's compared to someone in their 70's in night and day. If it wasn't for all of the blind old slow brain drains on the road we'd be able to increase the speed limit. Or am I just being spicy now?

"People that get to the supermarket checkout, then when it’s time to pay take about 10 minutes rummaging through their handbag to find their purse, then take an age to open it, seem to have to go through a process of deciding whether to use cash or a card, then decide that actually they will now present that 10p off coupon that they should have presented at the outset, then eventually find the right money, pay, then take about another 10 minutes making a whole palaver about putting their purse away again before they move on. Gahhh! You know you’re about to pay, just have your purse and coupons ready ffs …

Then there’s those people that queue at the petrol pumps so the petrol cap is on the right side of the car nearest to the pump, even if the opposite pump is empty.

Horse poo is not dangerous, it can be left to rot on your roses, it’s actually good for the ground and consists mainly of grass and hay if it’s looks yellower.

Dog poo however is dangerous, and should always be picked up and binned.

Horse poo is dangerous. More physics than bio chemistry. Try going down hill at 30 mph going through a traffic island speed bump comb, whilst tying to keep that horse's crap out of your mouth AND keeping that shit from going into your mouth.

I was cycling in Rutland and had to come down this hill in a 30 zone, doing 25 mph, so not speeding. This means there were no windows to protect my face. I also had to negotiate the speed bumps, which was one of those raised square in between a pair of traffic islands, whilst trying not to loose traction through the few inches of available tarmac and avoiding on coming traffic

Horse poo will deny you what ever grip you have on two wheels, 25 ml of tyre verses the horses' breakfast is not a good fight. Horse riders, police and non police don't think this matters.

So the safest way to ride this would be slowly, then maybe your bike won’t lose grip, or you would have time to negotiate your way around it. doing that speed over a speed bump isn’t good for cars either & generally slow down to 20mph or 15mph. Curious to know how you knew you were going 25mph on a push bike? Not doubting you, just wondering.

I hate the term push bike. Rant over.

We live in an age where car drivers use sat navs and cyclists use GPSdevices( Garmin/Wahoo/iphone/android phone etc). Americans get confused over these, subtle differences.

So having a digital display of all my metrics is not to difficult, with a trialete's watch atattached to the handle bars.

People who don’t know the width of the car their driving will sit for ages waiting for a clear road when it’s obvious to everyone else you could drive a bus through the gap

I have another. People who think a petrol station forecourt is a place to gossip.

This happened to me when I went for fuel yesterday. 2 taxi drivers both in the same position at the pumps having a gossip in front of one of them. Let them carry on until another car came up behind me and then another so I beeped and one went. No space to go round them to the next pump either. The other taxi driver then spent ages in the shop which meant I got stressed as there were still a line behind me and I didn't remember to shut my flap before paying for my fuel

Teaspoon, sugar, stir hot drink, more sugar, stir drink again, scoop coffee, spill it, stir in coffee again. Wet coffee lumps and coffee. This is worse than double dunking.

Wokism like it has gone too far now and you ca t say anything in case some snowflake has their feelings hurt.

The influx of new people that go to the gym

People that spend 5 minutes on their phone between reps at the gym and then do about 2 reps and then back on the phone for 5 mins
