    Texts that seem to carry a sense of urgency and immediacy, but you can't quite figure out why

    Caring about minor things that bother me when I really should just let them go and not let them eat away at me.

    In films and tv shows, when someone gets beaten up, then, someone else dabs around the edges of their prosthetic wounds with a damp flannel.

    The way people's attitudes completely change depending on whether they're driving cars or walking on the pavement. I've never gone to jog past a pedestrian only for them to speed up to prevent me overtaking.

    Similarly, when both a stranger and I step the same way to avoid each other, both of us often apologise. If someone moves lanes on a motorway when I was about to, they can feck off.

    I suppose it has something to do with being in control of a piece of metal weighing quite a lot more and having quite a lot more potential to cause damage.

    When I have a meal which requires a condiment such as ketchup, and I don't put exactly the right amount in my plate. Too little and the last few mouthfuls are dry. Too much and I've wasted some and it looks messy in my otherwise empty plate.

    I don't recall anything like a pitch invasion like Wolves fans did a few years ago. Way over the top celebrations.

    We went mental at Oxford in 1991, that was an escape Houdini would have been proud of.

    Or cyclists riding on the road, when there's a cycle lane. Same with joggers jogging on the road, when there's a pavement. Also cyclists and joggers two abreast on the road.

    Sorry, wrong thread. Should have been the "hate" thread.

    Agreed. It's not difficult to use the brush. The anoying thing is I've got to clean up after them because otherwise peopel might think it was me that did it. The state of office loos I've used has been bloody awful occasionally. I can only assume someone had swallowed a hand granede.

    If you can't use a toilet properly, a university library is not the type of place you'll be suited to.

    I'm sure things have changed but the then newly rich oil sheiks and their wives were the scourge of London's finest hotels and shops. A young girl I knew thought she'd hit the jackpot when she landed a shop assistant's job at Harrods ... but she spent most of her time following these ex desert-dwellers with a brush, shovel and spray disinfectant in hand.

    The ****ty little articles about the championship top 6 that have suddenly started appearing. People seem to have realised it's actually quite an interesting league and are now having people who clearly don't know much about the championship write small pieces about who's going to go up.

    People that, like, use the word 'like' at like, every opportunity. Especially like, when they like go 'I was like so...' and like, pull a stupid face to like, demonstrate their emotion.

    Irritating f***pigs.

    I just turn my back and walk away now, which apparently is like, really rude?
