minor things that make you fume

Any summariser or similar who starts a point with “Listen”. RS fella on Merseyside (Ben?) does it often.

This guy (Ben) is hilarious and a fully signed up member of the cult.

Every transfer disaster, is translated into an 'actual profit', and he is in complete denial that Liverpool Football Club, and it's fan's, are ever capable of any wrongdoing.

A 100% beaut.
 
Drivers who don’t do the speed limit.

Just been driving down a single-carriageway, which has a speed limit of 50mph, the driver in front is doing 38-40mph. I started getting impatient, so overtook it when I seen a gap open up from the oncoming traffic and then he started to match my speed as I was overtaking! So I had to go faster to get past him, all the while the gap is now closing to the oncoming traffic.

The lanes are fairly big, you could fit a bus through the middle. There is no road signs to say that overtaking is not allowed and the white line was broken, meaning that I can go into the other lane to overtake as it isn’t a solid line. So I’m assuming I made a legal manoeuvre?

It’s a company car, so the last thing I need is someone with dashcam footage sending it to my company if it isn’t a legal move!
 

The gravylord on everything at the moment making comments about England and all the players. He was manager for ONE GAME!!! I really can't stand the guy and wish he would go away and manage in Dubai or China or somewhere like that.
 
"We're working with local authorities, schools, the CPS, youth organisations etc to address this issue"

No you're not!
*after an utterly foreseeable calamity - the words used by those responsible hoping to keep their job, when really they should be shot, although if they know the right people it works:

"We will learn from this"

Guessing you've been driving in north wiltshire then.
 

Nah, Switch Island in Liverpool. Absolute nightmare of a place and generally a crash every other day.
The 10mph below whatever the speed limit thing - I thought was unique to north wilts. Glad I'm not suffering alone.

Another favourite trick is if they're waiting at a junction and see you coming, they'll desperately get out in front of you, driving like they're going to casualty, only to instantly slow down to the old 10mph below routine.
 
"We'd like to draw a line in the sand, put this behind us and move on."

Even the boldest spokespersons don't come out with that one any more. Pity. It was a classic.
 
There is a Hare Rama Hare Krishna Foundation food place around the corner where I work. They offer free vegetarian food (mainly curry) which includes a cake for after, a poppadom and lime pickle. You get loads.

There are people (city workers and students) who do not give a few quid as a donation and it riles me every time I get the food.
