Took a flight last week. How I like to roll is paper, whiskey & ginger, bag of cashews (and in an ideal world fag to finish...but those days are gone). So as we taxi and I'm fingering my share bag of nuts an announcement comes over the tannoy that we have a passenger with nut allergy. Thus no nuts will be sold and you aren't allowed to consume your own nuts on the flight. I mean seriously wtf is? So no fag and now no nuts. Consideration for others see.

Yet we take off and there's a toddler behind who starts this shrill screaming as soon as the wheels leave the tarmac. Scream scream scream in endless fashion. About half way I thought we should land and get the family arrested for breach of the peace. No consideration for others see.

Can confirm I consumed several whiskey & gingers.

People that use the word " Obviously " especially when answering a question , so condescending .

In fact the word should be deleted from The English language as it obviously has no positive use.

Flybe, in the last 10 months or so I have flown 60+ times and close to 90% of flights have been delayed by 30 mins or more, even had a few flights cancelled. Currently at Tegel with another delay. How do they get it wrong so often?

I just got home, brand new thesaurus in hand. I open it up, and all of the pages are blank. Totally blank. There are no words to describe how angry I am.

I like to read the news on my phone or my laptop so I click on a headline and it opens a video link.

I don't want to watch a fucking video, I want to read the news.

Popups.

Has anyone in the history of the entire world ever stopped what they were doing online to investigate a 'weird old cure' for baldness and erectile dysfunction?

I don't want to watch a fucking video, I want to read the news.

I find this annoying whether it's on the phone or on a computer. I was particularly annoyed to read one of the BBC's editorials a while ago explaining how the general website re-designs for the BBC were all going to be focussed on making videos easier to access. Videos in news tend to have the content of an article you've briefly scanned but take the time of something you've read in depth, that's never going to be what I'm looking for.

Not only that, I'm often in a public place, or a room where someone else is doing something else. I don't want to plug in an earphone or force my crap on to them.

More so than this, I hate the sites (particularly nfl.com and various newspaper sites) which start to auto-play video content as soon as they load up.  Usually they don't offer any functionality to stop this, so its generally a race for the mute/close/pause button as soon as you load them.

People who have parked on a road , go to get in the driver's side which is where the traffic goes past ,

turn around as they are about to open the door to see if traffic is coming there way and STILL open the door

wide open and get in regardless of the cars/lorries thundering past them.

People who want odds on the match being 4-0 , two players sent off , 23 corners and a dog coming on

the pitch to shit in the centre circle ( has to be within the circle )

Whatever happened to win lose or draw FFS.
