Estate Agents, PPI Claims companies, overly cheerful waiters in **** restaurants such as TGI's, using the word "an" before the word historical, The Toyota Prius and it's drivers, Goat's cheese, spiders that look like Peter Crouch hanging in every damned corner of my house, automated telephone answering systems, my neighbours cat which is capable of crapping only in my garden, push button taps that stop delivering water just as you put your hands under them, packaging on kids toys that requires a degree in engineering to remove......... I could go on, really.

Thanks DT for the catharsis opportunity.

I must take issue with your sweeping dismissal of goats cheese. Nowt wrong with a firm Chevre
 
Households with 2 cars who park one outside your house and the other outside theirs. Not that I expect to always park right outside, just the lack of thought.

People who don't pick up their dog's **** - makes me feel violent.

The cost of living.

The cost of holidays in term time v the cost during school holidays.

The ****er round the corner who had a go at my wife a couple of weeks ago.

Not being free to take the law into your own hands from time to time.
 
All reality TV
Colin Montgomery
Drivers who pass you out recklessly and then slow down to turn off the road
 
Traffic Wardens

CCTV traffic entrapment cameras

Divers and cheating in football
 
wumming, lorries racing to overtake each other as slowly as possible, the no drinking in the stands rule especially after you have queued all of half time for a pie and a pint (sorry the first one was just a wum)

as a lorry driver
I have to say

we do this on purpose
 
Drivers who can't be a$$ed to use their indicators!
People who think it's OK to text/read messages, or leave their ringtones on, in meetings/training sessions
Spam email
 
Add to that the words basically and literally as used by the masses.

When issued the Basically ... Say Stop I prefer the in-depth version please as I don't believe you are talking about

When I attend marketing meetings now I use the power some daft idiot gave me to ensure all these words are not used

I also will never allow a dead wood to open it's mouth ... Some managers feel they have done their job just if they contribute with words ... it's not enough in my game

Cost analysis people who do everything in theory and then blow it all over when budgets get blown out. Too many people pretending thinking they can plan work and life out ... as if we have any control at all

The 'literally' one gets me too
