Litter louts
Greed-as in people who pile their plates skywards at a restaurant Carvery.
Parents glued to their mobile devices whilst their toddlers are ignored.

Spiders

Champagne Socialists

Brussel Spouts

Intolerance!

Moths.

Rudeness.

Bonfires.

KatyK Fri 16-Oct-15 16:20:57

People who, when you ask how they are, tell you their life story but don't even ask how you are.

Snobbery

Smugness

As a couple of others have said I don't hate anything or anyone. I think most of the things which have been said are slightly irritating but I certainly do not hate them.

I am grateful that I live where I do and therefore don't experience many of the above.

I would add to the irritating things: GNs who don't read previous posts and as a result say what has already been said - sometimes several time!

Ooh yes Nonnie to that last one! Gets on my wick too! grin

Nonnie Fri 16-Oct-15 17:19:56

I don't spend enough time on here to read all the threads so when I come on and see one which is several pages long I simply leave it alone rather than post something which may already have been said. Seems a simple courtesy to previous posters.

In Manchester I have seen Nurses travelling in uniform I realise they are busy
and don't always have somewhere to change but I think it is one way of spreading infection.

Tattoos

People who say"nucular", it just happened again on R4.

Drivers who drive too close behind me

None actually ruin my life, but I suppose the last could!

cupcake1 Fri 16-Oct-15 17:58:23

Drivers who wait in a side road until I approach then pull out directly in my path and continue to drive the rest of the way at 10mph - grrrr - I feel road rage just thinking of it !

Lorraine, SO patronising

Older female celebs who preach good skin care regimes and products, claim to have 'good genes' but forget/deny surgical intervention! No one of 'a certain age' has a flawless tight wrinkle free face and neck!

My three pet hates:

1.Spitting in the street - still very common in London.

2.Food wastage.

3.Young babies slumped in buggies.

Many other things have already been covered by other people.

Racism and that includes anti migrant comments. Seeing the mid-use of the apostrophe in printed form, i.e. shop signs, the amount of food people feel necessary in the cinema and the fact that I am totally invisible because I'm old.

Bad manners
Bad behaviour
Bad language

Hope I don't sound like an old fuddy duddy ??

Pittcity Fri 16-Oct-15 20:19:56

Dog poo
Litter
Laziness in not taking a minute to clear the aforementioned up!

LullyDully Fri 16-Oct-15 20:34:45

I do not always have time or the inclination to read everything that has ever been on GN let alone read through all the longer threads. I would therefore beg a bit of leniency if seen to be repetitive. Sorry.

nannycake Fri 16-Oct-15 22:35:32

People who moan about small things

Shazmo24 Fri 16-Oct-15 22:44:46

Drunk people
People not picking up & binning their dog's poo

shysal Sat 17-Oct-15 08:52:35

Neglected Leylandii hedges.

Dragonflies which clash wings above my head and stalk me when walking.

Kippers with bones.

adnil1949 Sat 17-Oct-15 08:52:53

1) Litter and Dog poo on the pavement
2) Inconsiderate neighbours making noise late at night
3) People that have no patience.
