I hate

Exactly.

The most complicated it gets is ¾ cup. Which means you have to use both a ½ cup and ¼ cup.

The fuck do you think?

Yeah, but flour and raisins and oats and pasta all take up different amounts of space, and stuff settles too so that makes a difference. Cups are for tea and tits.

And bearings.

How dare you forget the humble codpiece

Nailed it, brilliant.

The ones I bought were measured mostly by diameter, in millimetres.

Pine processionaries.

People who stand unnecessarily close to you in queues.

Turned to leave the counter after dropping parcels off at the post office and pretty much went straight in to some creepy dude who’d been right there all up in my anti-grill.

Sorry, you just smelled so good.

I prefer it when they smell bad

Oh me too, Alex was ripe.

I feel like I’m being discriminated against just because I choose to make my living tanning leather.

It’s when you shuffle forward to get some space and they shuffle up too; right into your back pocket.

I tend to have one or both of my daughters with me if i'm in a queuing situation, and therefore have a backpack on (nappies, snacks, my little ponies that absolutely had to come to the post office with us). It might be that I suddenly need something from it, so take it off in an exaggerated, swinging manner that might accidentally clout someone who happens to be right up in my personal space.

...entitled parents who believe the entire UK is their personal parental space.

Not the entire U.K., but certainly the 10cm directly behind where I’m standing. What an entitled cunt, eh?

That was more than a little tongue in cheek!

However, school run, discuss.....

salty parents incoming in 3... 2...

You behave.

salty Granuiad parents incoming with square plates

Ha, I salted right up at that didn’t I? :-)

Some things like syrup and honey are difficulty to measure out by any method, but imagine writing a recipe and telling people to use a cup measure. What a mess, what a waste.

I have some sympathy for measuring things by volume, in Eastern European recipes you have 'a glass' of this and that, and it's rarely fussy. Americans just abuse the whole concept and end up telling you to measure broccoli in a little scoop

I hate it when drivers pass you then when they are past you, continue to pull out to give you the clearance they should have given you while actually passing, while still indicating... (If that makes sense)

Plenty of cunts in cars this morning not indicating
