    Incorrect. Could be either or both. Two words pronounced the same with different meanings which, on this occasion, are spelt with exactly the same letters in a different order.

    Was just me not putting to much thought into what I was typing to be honest.

    People who make idiotic suggestions, then claim there's a witch hunt against them.

    People who insist on creating multiple threads on the same topic.

    When people say "IMHO" or "In my humble opinion". When I express an opinion, regardless how uneducated it is, I make it clear that I am completely unhumble about it.

    People who employ the following phrases:-

    1. It does what it says on the tin!

    2. I'm "minded" to do xyz (especially when uttered by politicians)

    3. It's a no brainer!

    All of these phrases grate on me like fingernails down a blackboard and the people who say them think they're so smart and clever in saying them.

    Colleagues who refuse to believe what you say but believe the exact same thing from someone else. It's like I work for WFC Forums.

    i use phrase 1 all the time in portuguese because there isn't a direct translation so it makes me sound like a maverick

    When people screenshot pictures on twitter instead of saving them and reposting them. Also when people screenshot their camera roll on iPhones. People who quote tweets just to add the laughing emoji's.

    people who have instagram and feel the need to upload a new mugshot every few days to update everybody on how they look. these people are so vain, do they base their happiness on the amount of likes they get?

    Football chants. Specifically how thick people sound when they sing them in their pretend "well 'ard" voices.

    Another chance for the zztop haters on he to have another go at me!

    I pay some of my monthly earnings into a local charity trust. As far as I am concerned that is the best way to do things as I know where the money goes.

    I know that some charities are struggling and it is difficult, but I have taken the above route and it is my way of declining street collections without feeling guilty.

    So this morning I went to the local Tesco's for the Sunday Papers with a fiver in my pocket. On the way in, I get tapped up by someone collecting for cystic fibrosis research. I politely declined.

    I then went to the till with my papers and some nice polite young girl in a cystic fibrosis tee-shirt appears from nowhere to "pack" all (my newspapers) my shopping for me. I reluctantly put my change in her bucket, and she then annoyed me by using Clive's phrase "Bless, you sir!"

    So then I make my way out, to be accosted at the exit ("accosted" may be a bit strong) by two little girls, no older than 4, holding out their hands next to another collection bucket, looking at me with pleading eyes as I walk past.

    It is getting like a flipping army emotional assault course getting the papers these days.

    PS, I normally go to the local newsagents, and will do in future.

    ZZ puts on tin hat.

    You're obviously far too approachable. I scowl at everyone and never have any such problems.

    People who can't apologise properly. Or who manage to turn what should be a humbling apology into an exercise in narcissism.

    Step forward Joey Barton:

    "I'm gutted I got sent off. I've let my teammates down today and being someone who puts the team above everything else I'm gutted about that.

    "My actions towards Huddlestone were certainly not malicious, it was a stupid reaction to being barged but I can appreciate it wasn't right.

    "I've tried to prevent Hull's players influencing referee as u can see by me pushing Bruce away.

    "Young kid making his debut has made a good tackle. Couple of Hull players trying to get him sent off. My job as captain is to protect him."

    What's that Joey, Hull were influencing the referee? Just doing you job as captain? You put the team first do you? Is flicking someone in the balls putting the team first?

    Just like this. Can anyone tell me what the f***? These people probably have decent jobs and might even be of average intelligence. So why pretend not to be?

    People on stairs. I work in the Uni library on the top floor, the amount of people that just stop and have a chat in the middle of the stairs and then don't get out the way! :rant:

    People who break wind on a train. It's not the flatulence that bothers me but the fact that I believe people will think it's me which makes me look shifty which makes people think it's me

    How do you react? Just ignore it and act as if you haven't niticed, over play it, by holding your nose and screwing up your face in disgust? It's unfair. The penetrator should just raise their hand and apologise. Then they should alight at the next stop.

    My Facebook app on my phone randomly makes noises when sweeping up and down or selecting.

    Only does it once or twice a day but there doesn't seem to be any pattern to it?.

    People who say "it" on the end of words which don't end in "it".

    Most often these are "chocol-it" and "toil-it".
