Little things that irritate you

Too bloody many from the last couple of weeks, but I'll just say the A303.

I seem to remember it being a great road back in 2005 when I went to Devon. It's an utter disaster now. Did they balls it up somehow, or is it just a general increase in traffic in the intervening decade or so.

Also - Seagulls. If Wasps are known as Canutes with wings, then Seagulls are the Arissholes of the sky.

Slice her throat open and rip out her tongue, then when it is starting to decay, send it to her newly orphaned children on their first birthday without both parents, the ****ing fat, disrespectful mistake.

People who say one hundred percent, when they mean .... yes.

It's like septics who say .... at this moment in time, when they mean now.

I suppose what I'm saying is an overuse of words. There's no need for it.

I'll tell you what annoys me. Fat people. Fat people on public transport and how they just spill over their own seat and encroach onto your space, to the point it feels like they're almost leaning on you.

Fat German people encroaching on your territory, now that must be the uber irritation for me.

Sounds like she could get behind England and push it closer to Europe.

The dry weather means that worms and slugs and stuff have burrowed deeper underground to get to where its moist. Normally that would be a good thing because it means that the slimy gits would be further away from me, but the foxes have been burrowing in Mrs Monkeybubbles lower garden to reach them.

I worked down in Folkestone for a while - pterodactyl-size seagulls that bombed in formation and left their victim looking like something out of a bukkake porn movie.

I remember throwing a crisp to a lone seagull on a platform at Ramsgate train station once. Within seconds, I was transformed to the set of the film “The Birds”. It was mental. Everyone else on the platform was glaring at me with a mixture of hatred and incredulity in their eyes. Lesson learned, never again.

I nearly had a punch up at the beach with some inconsiderate dickhead who decided to chuck some food in my general direction whilst I was holding my 6 month old baby.

The most annoying bit of it was when I had a pop at him for it, rather than a bit of contrition and an apology, all I got was silence from the cretin whilst his feral family of rancid faced harpies all rounded on me.
