    People that don't know how to use a slip road to merge with the traffic on the main Highway, and expect everyone to move over or adjust their speed rather than pacing their own speed to match a gap.

    People who stand in a queue for 10 minutes, get served and only then decide to fumble around for ages trying to find their app / card /money.
    ps it doesn't have to be specifically 10 mins.

    Except BMW drivers, because they obviously have to pay a subscription to get their indicators working

    ATM machines that ask if you want a receipt or cash only and then, after you have pressed the cash only button, ask you if want a receipt before dispensing the cash.

    Amazon - The worst company to deal with in the history of business, fine if you’re a customer, utterly appalling if you’re a seller.

    Couriers - Lose parcels, make up **** excuses for why they couldn’t deliver, do everything possible to avoid paying out on lost goods and are generally just thieving bastards.

    Worked with an Italian who went nuts if anyone ordered a Cappuccino after noon. Apparently it's not the done thing.

    Player of the match instead of man of the match.

    Batter instead of batsman.

    Agree about the supermarkets, then they, more and more, expect you to use the sell service tills which is saving them wages and costing people jobs. I hate Tesco and all they stand for. I was in the St Stephens huge shed one this week. Wanted two items, both nearly double the price if you don't have a tesco club card and I don't and never will. So walked out, across the road to Iceland, bought both items for less then the tesco club card price, a lot less too and an actual person took my money off me at the till, she even spoke to me.

    People who park on pavements, particularly when they’re half on the pavement, half on the road so two cars can’t get past anyway.
    Selfish ****s who value their wing mirrors more than leaving access for people in wheelchairs or people pushing prams.

    Sometimes it’s awkward to squeeze past them on the path without scratching them…

    * People who don’t know when to indicate when exiting a roundabout,
    * Bin-men dumping your bin in next doors drive…. THATS WHY THERES NO TIP AT CHRISTMAS YOU ****ERS!,
    * Him/He on emails- **** the **** off mate! Your name’s Brian!,
    * People at work who talk the talk but actually do the square root of **** all but somehow, they’re employed,
    * People who send their kids to nursery/school coughing and sneezing their guts up rather than having them stay at home and getting better ensuring the bug is passed to my kids and then me,
    * Pubs selling **** beer,
    * Leeds fans.

    Essentially, I’m a moaning **** who should really just get a grip and stop ****ing whining!

    don't amazon famously or rather infamously, take someone elses product from their sellers then make their own version and sells it cheaper?
