minor things that make you fume

[Toast]

Yoghurt scrapers. Especially people in work.

You know the type, it is vaguely annoying at first when you hear the "schlep" (Sorry I cant do impressions) noise once or twice. But then it just builds up..."Schlep......Schlep.....SCHLEP SCHLEP SCHLEP SCHLEP SCHLEP"

ANY NEED??

It's a pot of yoghurt, not some mysterious serum of eternal youth. You don't have to get every last bloody bit out!

Steady.
Does this count when scoffing a Vienatta out of a bowl ?
Cos I'm a bad bowl scraper when it comes to a vienetta.

Always have been. Makes me laugh when people complain about it (which seems to happen loads in this thread) yet it's actually the right thing to do.

Round where i live there are quite a few bits of road that are 2 lanes, then merge into 1 lane. The amount of people who sit in the left hand lane whilst the right hand lane sits empty is ridiculous. It just causes jams cause they're too busy moaning at the people who do use the outside lane instead of learning how roads work.

The one by ours is a nightmare is the junctions are some two lane, some one lane and some that are generally two lanes that go into one as there is a crossing right on the junction, which then goes into a two laner again.

Roundabouts should have some form of uniform structure. The amount of people who don't know how to use them is getting dangerous. I do not enjoy the getting trapped on a roundabout thing either by the aforementioned crossing especially when the centre of it is too high for people coming from the other side to see if anyone is stuck in the middle of the roundabout due to the lights being on red.

Hmmm... no I don't think it does.

The noise is different, the clang of metal on porcelain is not as annoying as metal on plastic and not as loud as the receptacle is larger.

Damned right I have put some thought into this.

I could just go a Vienetta now that you mention it...

The thought in your fume shines through.
I'm a big fan of the ice cream.
Love the Haggen Daaz. Only when on offer though, as I'm a minge.
The standard Vienatta is usually £1.
An utter steal.
Can scoff a full one, easy.

Old people driving again.

Nearly got ran over in the supermarket today, by an old fella who reversed out of his parking spec like the Sweeney on the way to a job.

No use if the mirrors at all, engine revving like mad and no idea what was behind him.

The American car companies still making cars with blinkers that aren't yellow. It's confusing as fudge when you can't see the whole back end of a car to know instantly whether a brake light is being tapped or someone is indicating (signaling a turn).

Virtually came here to post something like this.
The sad reality of the psychology behind the trend, which was explained to me by a more or less lucid ex (who partakes in the practice), is that if others don't know about it feels like it didn't really happen. Publicizing your vacations on social media has become a norm like validating your existence or affiliation to modern society by having an ID card and figuring in a database. Otherwise, it's like you don't exist in the eyes of everyone else.
Used to be that people would travel out of sheer curiosity. Nowadays everyone has the same 100 pictures in front of the Eiffel Tower and the Tower of Pisa or the Big Ben, and every sod thinks they're the first one to post it.

I get it's none of my business but it's still a proper fume

A bit like the tree falling in the woods not making a sound if no-one's there to hear it.

Plenty of little furry wood animals hear it.

I know because they are my friends.

If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman to hear him, is he still wrong ?

THIS.

They must get to their destination about two minutes faster whilst the rest of us have to suffer.

Lorry drivers in general, too. Hate them all.

I remember when the M6 toll was being bult and the lorry drivers where demanding a discount.

The reply was "we don't want you to use it, you're intimidating and cause unnecessary congestion"

Or something like that.

Working today, tomorrow and Saturday.

Biking to work in a head wind in a shower of rain, with a spongy front tyre due to a slow puncture you couldn't be arsed to sort out on your day off.

£6.10 for a cup of tea and a scone in Lewis's this morning, sake.

of course, goes without saying.
