minor things that make you fume

I can deal with cyclists who are actually travelling somewhere, but the ones who load up the roads at the weekend purely for their own amusement can do one. A ‘peloton’ invariably goes past my house every Sunday around 0700, and apparently, its members shouting to each other as loud as they can is part of the deal. Sorry YOU can’t sleep lads, and that your only solution is dressing like a bell and getting on a bike, but the rest of us are trying to get some kip and/or trying to use the roads for their actual purpose, not as a race track.

Another thing that I see a lot of and also gets on my tits is, when there are group of cyclists, and instead of riding behind each other in a single file they spread out across the road side by side, or bunch up in a group, therefore taking up the whole lane and making it more difficult and dangerous to overtake them.

My favourite was a couple of years ago. I was driving down a road with vehicles parked both sides, so only room for one vehicle. A lad, aged about 15, was coming the other way, riding his bike with no hands and texting on his mobile. He saw me and realised there wasn't room for him so went up on the pavement and continued down the pavement - no hands and texting.

Gibbo would have run him over...

Well considering Gibson is banned from driving I'd say from the behaviour of the cyclist it was more likely for Gibson to be the actual cyclist

If it was Gibbo on the bike, @chrissyjack should thank his lucky stars that his car didn't sustain any damage!

Queue jumpers : then they have the gall to get offended when you point out that you're not queuing for your health - Brexit lovers one and all.

Trying to do anything on Virgin Media's website - Phone, TV or Broadband. Terrible, terrible websites. And the Virgin Mobile call centres for technical help are beyond useless.

I hear (literally) the Battle of the Somme has started earlier this year. When you hear the dog's barking you can calculate how far the gits are setting off the mortar bombs.

That was next on the list
When you lose something, it must be somewhere, if its somewhere you can find it, if you can find it, its not lost....but it is usually in the last place you look.
It'll turn up

It's always in the last place you look. Unless you are a weirdo who keeps looking for it after you have found it

The tw@t sitting behind and across from me on the plane snorting like a pig. I can see serviettes on your tray table, blow your freaking nose.
I wish he was directly behind me so I could rapidly recline my seat into his knees.

Going for a poo in any public toilet (grim I know).

The door is clearly locked, so why are you trying to turn the handle... multiple times?

I even had a knocker yesterday, just go away ffs.

Mate I get this in my own house ffs.

The same dense house mate will knock on the door when it’s locked and can clearly see the light is on and says “Hello?”. He’s unbelievable. I just ignore him now and let him struggle.

Makes me really uncomfortable though, and I can't poo properly knowing someone is waiting outside my cubicle.

In work I try and go first thing, or late in the day when it's quieter so I can poo in peace.

When temporary traffic lights turn red on the car in front of you and instead of just following the chain of cars going through they just slam on.

Personally I’d pretend I’m not even in there and that the door lock must be busted, sit in there on my phone for an hour, see if he poo’s himself.

The thing is there’s two other toilets in the house he can use. He moves out next month thankfully.
