We've all got them.

The things which are, in the grand scheme of things, totally irrelevant, inconsequential and otherwise totally unimportant... but still manage to p!ss us off royally all the same.

Some of mine are...

* The way some Irish people say "filum" instead of "film".

* The (seemingly deliberate) mis-pronunciation of footballer's names by some commentators (e.g. David Pleat's "Rays" instead of "Reyes").

* Women who stand blocking narrow shop aisles with double buggies.

* OAPs who wait until they're on the bus before counting out their fare exactly, in 1p, 2p and 5p coins. And never seem to know the fare, despite making the same journey to bingo every day for the last 10 years.

people who talk in the cinema during a movie.there are 2 especially annoying ones i can remember.

1:during hp+ prisoner of askaban,a crow went "caw"then some weirdo at te front,every few minutes,goes"caw caw"

2:a group of about 5 girls are sitting behind me and my friend when we went to see the longest yard(brill movie).
one of them goes "woohoo!"every time;

a:one of them gets clonked in the a.football,

b:when in the basketballl scene they either hit one another or score.

c:when they started making out,(it was a double-whistle actually)

Then a different one sticks her head between me and my friend and goes"hey you ,what age are you?"
nearly ruined the damn movie.

But if you're going really fast and there's no one around, the outside lane is probably best. I know it's for overtaking, but if you're driving, say, ten mph over the limit, it's stupid to be in the inside lane. Then again, I don't actually drive...

~ People who put their keys on the table in pubs. Packet of cigs I can understand. Phones a bit annoying but again, can understand. But keys... just... why?
