I hate

On the foreign pronunciation thing, it irks me mildly that we use English names for towns and countries in Europe (Germany, Spain, Vienna etc) but are expected to keep up with every name change that happens further afield (Burma, Bombay, Rhodesia). England invented the world so should have the right to name it how we like.

How come Bollywood is still called Bollywood? Shouldn't it be Mullywood or something?

Boom, that highlights the fallacy in renaming all the things (but not all).

Especially if your chicken dinner is a Chicken Chennai

I'm trying to think of a pun that involves 'constantiNOPEal'. Not happening.

I think the band They Might Be Giants have that one all sewn up.

Burma, Bombay, Rhodesia

Is it because they are ex-colonies?

People who drop litter. Some prick in a 4x4 just tossed a food wrapper out of his window as he was waiting at some lights.

I just don't understand.

Thought you said drop letters for a sec, 'bout to tell you to fuck off.

Pick it and hand it back telling them they dropped s0mething

I didn't have time as the lights were about to change so I shouted "You dropped something mate" through his open window. He said something I couldn't make out as he overtook me.

Safe to say no progress was made.

People with their own parking bay who leave their car in the middle of the road overnight.

What on earth. Am I wrong to read this as "The owner of this car has a raging antisocial streak"?

Urgh - pet hate of mine. Told someone off for dropping litter in a park once and they complained about me having a go at him in front of his kids. Yeah - I'm the one being a bad example to them.

No one likes to be told off even if they are blatantly in the wrong and you are blatantly in the right.
Could be a dangerous car driver with their mates /girlfriend/mother/kids in the passenger seat.
Humiliation and Rage

brexit zeitgeist

I'm always a bit nervous of who someone like that might be. If I tell them off for dropping litter they might get aggressive and I might get hurt. Is it really worth the risk?

I think it's therefore safest to say nothing at all and to just move directly to smacking them hard in the face. By getting in first you can often avoid them getting violent at all.

Ignorant cunts.
Some mid-twenties female with suitcases sticking out each side of her airport trolley twats mother-in-law's calf with her cargo. Wife told her to be more careful as she had hit MIL. Female carried on and said "If I had known I had hit her I would have apologised!"
I said "You can apologise now then, 'cos you now know that you did hit her"
It fell on deaf ears because she was on a mission to get into M&S food.

twats who use bus lanes to undertake in traffic queues

edit: I dont mean vehicle users who have a right to be in bus lanes.

Had a minicab sandwiched between two black cabs riding into oncoming traffic in front of me down Deansgate earlier. On a bike I was filtering, in cars they are cunts. The first one was aiming to turn right a bit later down a side road and the other two just drove headfirst down most of the road into angry carmmuters. Kinda funny.

Buttoning shirts right to the top, you look like you're being strangulated, pls staaaaahhp

Only a month late but I had a collague whose family were Vietnamese who tried to convince me to eat it from the 'wrong' end as that was what they had always done. There were a lot of benefits (well one as far as I could see) but it wasn't really worth changing. I think it's interesting that differnt cultures approach eating foods in different ways and I'm sure if I were that interested I'd study anthropology to seek an answer for why but I'm a lazy twat and am content to know that posh people eat hot dogs with a knife an fork and I don't and leave it at that.

Weird that it was only after eating bananas for around 30 years that I became aware of a different way of doing it though.

what benefit then, I'm curious?

You know the little nub at the 'end' of the banana, the slightly hard bit? You essentially pick that out when you open from the 'other' end. That said I normally eat all of that so it was never a big thing for me. There was also some talk about not squashing the banana as much (I'd not noticed any difference) and using the stalk as a handle to hold it but again I didn't see the advantage really as the rest of the banana provides a convenient receptacle.

Blimey, some people really think about things too much.
