Motorway drivers who are driving along (in lane 1 it must be said) but fairly slowly, while I'm about to take a slip road. So I'm indicating at the 3 bar marker, the gap between me and them is diminishing rapidly, and just when they get level with the slip road they take it anyway (usually indicating just after they join the slip road).
Drivers who pull out of side roads in front of me to go in the same direction, but because they left it late they think it makes it safer somehow to do it really really slowly.
Drivers who enter a roundabout in the left-most lane and then go all the way round it.
All driving ones...

All the recent ads on the TV
We will crush your car if you don't pay the car tax
Get your tax return in by 31st of this month and pay or get a £100 fine
Benefit fraud and all that bollox
TV license evaders
Ever get the feeling, this Country is in a hole
People who pick their noses whilst driving. I can see you
Fat people who insist on wearing clothes far too tight
Friends who visit week on week and never bring a bottle. They are just happy to drink yours

I have to be honest and say i agree with all that have been posted previously but here's a few more........
People who STILL insist on using their mobile phone while driving.
People that have to smoke while driving,couldn't possibly wait until they get to their destination could they?
People who have absolutely no intention of working for a living.Just have more kids so they can have more benefits.
People who don't know how to use the words 'their' 'there' & 'they're' in the correct context.
People who use , instead of ' ie 'couldn,t' or even worse 'could,nt'.
People who can't be arsed to clean their dog's **** up.Just pretend it isn't happening by looking the other way.
People with no common sense whatsoever (bit of a generalisation i know).
Overpaid w@nk footballers who do nothing but argue / dive all the time.They've ruined our beautiful game.
Gangs of lad's who think they're hard because they hunt in packs.
God i need to lie down...................................

Sky
We have an old basic Sky box here in my room (I'm at my parent's house) with a Freesat card in it. The box barely gets used and as a consequence needs the card reactivating from time to time. Last night was one of those times so I rang Sky. After a 25 minute wait on hold I told the operator what was wrong. She said it wasn't the card (I know it is, it happens to the Sky box on my parent's boat too) but that the box has a technical fault (no it doesn't, it's happened lots of times before) so put me on to technical.
Another 10 minute wait on hold and another dopey bint tells me the same thing *sigh* then puts me through to India or somewhere (on hold again) where yet another dopey bint tells me to unplug it and plug it back in (I'VE ALREADY DONE THIS BEFORE PHONING - DO YOU THINK I'M STUPID?
So I tell her that it just needs reactivating *bigger sigh* but she tells me she can't help me as all their systems are down She tells me to ring tomorrow to arrange for an engineer to come out. FFS!
I give up and have to have a bit of cake to calm me down
I hate them, not only did I waste nearly an hour of my life but they made me eat cake
Oh and banks

Gordans government cutting interest rates to the bone with no actual proof that it will 'kick-start' anything more than a revolt

The list is long but the the top two would be :
1) The Halifax tv adverts with the annoyingly cheesy singing
2) People who use sat-nav for their drive home ..... the same drive home they make every p0xy day ..... like somehow they might forget, get lost or that suddenly the roads may all be different from what they were that morning when they drove them TO work ..... and even though they're driving the SAME route AND using a computer to tell them where to go, they still end up in the wrong lanes at junctions / roundabouts ...... HOW?!?!?!?!?!?! :O

1. Day time TV chat shows & soaps - hate those ****'s
2. Lazy employees, especially those that think you don't know what they're doing.
3. VAT & Duty, as you generally fork out for these on a daily basis.
4. People that use SAT NAV to get to work and home again, despite driving that route day in day out.
5. People that hog the overtaking lane
6. Probing questions from the wife, especially when you're trying to sleep.
7. Mobile phones in restaurants
I need to attend anger management I think

My no 1 pet hate is drivers using their mobiles.
2 Idiots in supermarkets.
3. The idiots who keep blocking my shared drive.
4. People who pull out in front of you and then drive slower than the speed limit.

3 more annoyances from today
*People who are in the left and lane entering a roundabout and cut you up rather than driving round the roundabout.....they clearly dont understand the 'round' part of the word.
*People who are behind you in the checkout queue tut and moan that they can't get their shopping on the belt quick enough even though they wouldn't get served any quicker by GRABBING the 'next customer' divider thingy and slamming it down.
*Took my dog upto the park and saw this guy with a bassett hound. The dog was doing a s**t and the owner saw it but as he probably couldn't see us he never bothered picking it up.....Sarah didn't like the fact that I mentioned it to him as she said I was embarrassing her by confronting the guy.

Humourless people. Those who take a funny comment, read between the lines, get the ****, then kick off.
People who see my car and think, lets race. Sorry, I have no interest. My kids are in the car with me. Go elsewhere
MacDonalds. Do they EVER get an order right?
Doctors Receptionists. WTF has it to do with them why I want to see the Quack.
Give me time, there is more
