No seriously, it has to be people pushing in, people who are rude to cashiers, people who are walking in front of you and then just stop suddenly so you almost walk into them.

10 hours of my day are taken up with work (including travel to work). Retired people have no commitments, so it irritates me when they dither round the shops (usually with their shopping bag on wheels) when I have half-an-hour to grab what I need.

This thread is about what irritates us, and that's a thing that irritates me. I don't try to tell you that you should be irritated by it, so don't try to tell me that I shouldn't be irritated by it.

One thing that really annoys me is seeing satnavs on the really bright daylight setting when it's pitch black. How people can drive with the really bright reflection on their windscreen I'll never know. All you have to do is switch it to auto and it automatically changes to the night setting at dusk

This thread is about what irritates us, and that's a thing that irritates me. I don't try to tell you that you should be irritated by it, so don't try to tell me that I shouldn't be irritated by it."

I didn't tell you you shouldn't be irritated by it, I simply asked a question, old people don't bother me at all, I certainly don't find them irritating, even when I'm in a rush. I understand that they're old, and less mobile, and that they've worked their whole life to be able to relax and shop whenever they feel like it. Would you prefer they shopped at night and carry their shopping on their back? I hope that when I'm old that people are understanding!

People that dont smile and say hello, please or thank you during day to day transactions.

Turkish people in kebab takeaways who smile at me strangely the night before I get the shits.

Birthday cards. A tree died because you'd rather hand a card over to me personally instead of saying happy birthday to me while you're there, which you would anyway, so in fact why say it twice? There's no prize for the most happy birthdays said in a row.

Not just your opinion there was a tv program on about it the other night, wasn't taking it all in but the gist of it was that the germans have a greater sense of community spirit than most other nations.

I dislike people who bag their dogs shit and then throw the bag or hang it in a tree, even more than the people who just leave it. Do they enjoy standing in dog shit??

People with fog lights on when it is just barely misty or raining.

People who decide you are a little bit too close behind them whilst driving and brake test you...

I've spent a fair bit of time in Germany on and off over the years and this was one of the things I really liked. They will stop and tell you if your child is not dressed correctly for the weather - and they have some really harsh winters so I think that is quite sensible. They consider it to be totally their business, and, in some ways, they are right. That's Big Society.

However, their bureaucracy is far far worse than ours! And racism is really rampant, particularly in the East.

I've never been to Germany, would like to at some stage. I know people that have lived there and thought it was great.

They had to clear the snow from the pavement in front of the house by a certain time.

Racism is alive and kicking in the uk too though isn't it? The laws have just made people a little more careful in what they say in public.

Have a friend of mixed race, surname is Blacke, someone walked into a pub, a friend, spotted him and shouted across the pub 'alright blackie' got lots of grief for racism... even after explanation the landlord wasn't happy

I lived in Germany for 7 years and can remember the first time I returned home after 1 year, it struck home only then how dirty our country is, you never seen litter lying about in the streets, as ppl were responsible for keeping the paths around and outside their own home free of rubbish and also snow during the winter, they also had dry rubbish collection day"s where any other waste item such as household goods could be collected for free and taken for recycling so therefore reducing fly tipping

The current culture of celebrating idiots on TV, TOWIE, Geordie Shore etc. Why don't these thick vain people get a proper job and why do people spend their lives watching shows that allow unintelligent ingrates to become famous?? Why don't we teach our kids to actually aim to be something in life, rather than the no education but be happy to hump anything that moves to get famous!

I like TV that actually makes you think or engages rather than cringing, its not funny, its cheap TV that produces are ripping you off with
