    I'm not sure what annoys me more:

    The constant stream of 'Don't adopt a bunny for Easter' posts on social media.

    Or the idea that people actually do this? I've never heard of a single person doing this? Are there parts of the country where this is common? Seems like a really stupid thing to do.

    Get out of the f* way.

    I'm going to start flashing lights and using my horn soon. It's so annoying.

    It's also against the law
    Eh, strictly speaking no it isn't. If you are driving the maximum legal speed and the vehicle to your left is at the same speed and you cannot overtake it without breaking the speed limit then you are not obliged to slow down and move behind it even if there's a queue of people behind you who are willing to break the speed limit.

    The person in the middle lane is probably breaking the law though if they do not move to the left when possible. The Highway Code also states that you should not obstruct vehicles attempting to overtake you; I imagine this includes driving at the same speed as the car that is overtaking you.
    Seriously?? How many times have we done this, on this very thread now? The bottom line is that the system is outdated for the volume of traffic we have today.

    I'm not saying it's right, just pointing out what the Highway Code instructs.

    Parents swearing in front/at their kids. Was at the funfair at Danson today and a kid had hurt himself in the bouncy castle. His brother came off and told his parents he hadn't meant it and his mum replied "just get back on the fucking ride". Maybe I'm just an old fart but we never swear in front of ours (my wife doesn't anyway, which is surprising considering she's married to me) and I never heard my parents swear.

    Being told I'd find out my daughters primary school choice today by letter, only for it not to come. Then my ex missus working at Bexley council going to the relevant department only to be told we can't know. They literally could of given the letter by hand but that's not the process.

    The school place procedure is massively wrong.

    My missus staring at her phone, does my nut in, think I'll bugger off, don't think she'd notice until the battery went flat.

    That Roland song. "Hey, Hey Roland, oh, ah, I want to know.... why you're such a c*&£". That bit of the song is fine, but then the fans count two bars out loud. When have sports fans ever been so worried about being in time on a song? If people insist on being c*&£s themselves, just clap the two bars....

    Having the "Heyyyy Hey, Roland! Ohhh! Ahhh! I wanna knowwww..." song stuck in my head.

    Probably one of my best memories from the Duchatelet era was Fulham away last season, going to the bogs and coming back to the stand just to hear that being belted out.

    I'd never heard it before but it was immediately a favourite of mine. Got stuck in my head for days, found myself humming it in the office and everything..

    I played solitaire patience with a deck of cards rather than on the computer while chatting to my mum face to face over the weekend.

    Took me more than 15 goes to not get it out.

    She got it out after 4 goes.

    Next day I got it out over 2 goes.


    Bloody annoying patience.

    n. 1883, "fastidious man," New York City slang of unknown origin. The vogue word of 1883, originally used in reference to the devotees of the "aesthetic" craze, later applied to city slickers, especially Easterners vacationing in the West (e.g. dude ranch, first recorded 1921).
