Good one, it is uncanny that every time you see some bell end on a bike with no lights they are always dressed in black

Other people making noise:

Driving round with their windows open and absolute ****e blaring out

Mopeds

Leaving someone's house late at night and beeping their horn 'goodbye'

Shouting into their mobile phones, especially if it's in a restaurant and especially if you're actually there with them, put the fecking thing down and pay attention to the person you're with, Facebook won't implode if you're not checking it every five seconds.

Slow computers, causing you to open and shut your file drawers for **** all, just to cope with the defenceless situation.

Slow boiling kettles at workplaces, causing you to start biting your own hand with frustration.

When you run the hot tap at some public toilet to wash your hands, but the water comes out to be stone cold.

When some important business host gives you a glint in your eye for a nice cup of tea, then informs you that they have no milk or bleddy sugar. Honestly, you feel like going RAAAAAAAAAAAAR and throw your handbag at them! But you can't, as you need to keep up appearances. Very frustrating indeed.

Petrol pumps that you stop at 00 and go to 01 after you release the trigger.

Supermarket car parks.

Have a nice day.

All of our service representatives are busy at the moment, please hold......

Over-commercialised time of year events (Christmas, Easter, Halloween etc).

One click of a switch and they're on though... the cyclist actually sets out knowing he has no lights and thinks 'I know I think I'll wear all black'. That's struly

Anyway I think it is some plan by those stupid cycle action groups to get a few cyclists mown down by cars so they can carry on justifying their vendetta aginst those that actually pay to use the roads

Being told we are in the grips of a "big freeze" or how we are suffering "arctic conditions" and all other media sensationalism surrounding 2 inches of snow.

Older female drivers who seem to think they are the only people on the road.

they can't drive for toffee and have NO manners WHATSOEVER.

They are quick to pull out in front of you but not so quick as to pull away from you when you nearly drive into the back of them. They seem incapable of driving up to any speed limit let alone beyond it. They don't indicate and if they do its probably because they accidentally tapped the indicator wand without realising it.

They never ever ever acknowledge other driver's courtesy if, for example, they are invited to pull out of a side street or pass through a small gap as they approach from the opposite direction. And if they have to wait while you pass through a narrow gap they appear to begrudge the fact they were forced to wait.

To most of them a car is little more than a machine to be viewed (and treated) like they would their toaster.

And in case any other Scoobynet users are politically sensitive I will end by saying I am not a mysoginist (is that how it is spelt? who cares anyway?) but I am fed up of trying to be as generous as possible to the fairer sex only to be treated as if I wasn't there.

thankyou, you do your species proud.

Well you certainly put both those things together at very great personal risk!
