Geezers 'Pet Hate' thread

Shoppers who walk around a supermarket pushing a trolley. Load it up again with bags at the checkout. Push it out to the car. Then can't be bothered to walk 15 yards or less to push it into a trolley bay!
Yes, brilliant. Just leave it to roll into other peoples cars, and damage them. Lazy and inconsiderate!

 

And drivers in supermarket car parks, who somehow manage to drive all the way to the supermarket, then suddenly forget how to drive AND go blind the instant their front wheels cross the threshold between public road and supermarket car park.

 

The shoppers who hold a family reunion in the middle of an isle, oblivious to others who try to squeeze through.

 

People who drive to fast in country single track lanes, but will slow down for horses but not for humans

 

Why doesn't the volume of my turn signal rise in lock step with my radio?

I wouldn't find out that Led Zeppelin or Santana had drowned out my forgetfulness to shut the thing off after changing lanes...that would save me the embarrassment of noticing it long after I looked like a silly old cow

 

If I was driving behind you or in front of you and you'd left an indicator on, I'd alternate my indicators. You'd think, what's that plonker doing? Has he gone mad? What a crazy driver. Then you'd realise what I was trying to tell you, and then you'd have the added embarrassment of having mocked the person that was trying to alert you to your blunder

 

When you're listening to such good music as above Lori, who cares about the indicator (turn signal), it can wait!

 

.....And those that pull out in front of you and make you brake when there is an empty road behind you. They then turn off at the next turning, without indicating. Grrrr!

 

Fat Controĺler, I wish I could have rated, agree and then funny, because your closing comment made me smile but I also agree with your dislike.

If you see him again, please give tell him to come back to Toronto, as he is our road ambassador and people might get confused by our improvement in road manners and think maybe they are lost.

 

Why don't you move the petol station

Were i used to work we had lots of polish drivers coming in and some couldn't go backwards, the shed covers 5 acres big yard in front so all they had to do is get there lorry straight with the doorways and back in but some couldn't do that, so we always would go to them and say "stay where you are and we're move the shed for you"
Bye the way i had to do it 50+ times aday and i only hit the doorway once but i think the other staff members made the doorways smaller that day

 

My hate of the day:

Why does my phone always insist that I install the latest updates to Twitter? I have never used twitter, and never will. And, I can't even remove the stupid app from my phone because apparently it's a system app.

 

That would drive me nuts too @clueless1......and on a similar note. Websites that tell me I have to go to Facebook for further information and I have to abandon what I wanted because I can't get the info any other way. Can't this world exist without blasted Facebook and does that world also think that we will be forced to 'join up' to get the info we want. Never!

 

Went to a new tool shop today, they insisted on taking my details for the receipt. Then asked me if i'd like to be informed of any offers. I said no, so if they send me anything i'll spam them to death
