The fact that some shops (Boots and WH Smiths) give you a receipt with everything.

A got a receipt after buying a bad of peanut M&M's today. I'm not going to take them back.

Gaaaaaaaah.

Being ill, getting a cold, when the temperature shoots up.

Not the time to be confined to bed!

'Not' anything at all is a shit answer, I always think.
e.g. "Not bad", "Not too bad" etc. Why tell me what you are 'not'?
If your 'good' then say so - e.g "good, thanks".

people that don't say the word 'pounds' when asking you to pay for something, as if they are embarrassed to be asking you for money.
e.g. "so that's 78 to pay please".
I'm very tempted to hand over the amount in pence, instead.

Are you my old maths teacher?

Whenever you forgot the units he’d always say with a smug grin “78 what? 78 bananas!?”

There's a bit of a vacuum today and I've been Channel hopping and came across 'joe Black , half way through it's 3hr-40 mins .
That alone is infuriating enough but Jesus the audio or more pertinently Brand Pitts dialogue is so whispered /mumbled makes me want to pull my hair out.
He Wasn't alone in this and music across it half the time don't help, pressing volume up and down didn't even solve it but it wasn't a problem for Anthony Hopkins .
Hilarious scene with Pitt adopting a West Indian accent had me rolling though.

Would you like a cup of tea?
Err yes please.
Do you have sugar in it?
No thank you, I'm sweet enough.

So predictable and so annoying

It's even worse that you can guarantee they all have hairy backs. Lurking about in the kids pool with their goggles.

No idea why the lifeguards don't drag them out.

Variegated leaves. Bloody hate them!

Leaves: Either be green, or don't be green. But don't be green with crappy bits of white on you - it looks shit.

(Very gardening related annoyance)

good point, they're quite nice, aren't they? don't mind them as much. Please pretend that my complaint is only about green/white variegation specifically.
