Name 1 thing

When people reply with "no problem" when requested to do a simple function.

No that's what you're paid to do, so I never really expected there to be any problem :mad:
 
People who are intelligent enough to be stupid! What I mean is the type who think they know better and that others may be fooled but not them. They tend to be the ones believing conspiracy theories. I know a fair few of em
 
People describing a number of days as so many sleeps until ........
Worked with someone who always said that to me. I am 55 not 3 ffs
 
When people refer to a cup of coffee from Starbucks as “a Starbucks”, or a sandwich from Greggs as “a Greggs”, or any other such thing.

No it’s still a cup of coffee and a sandwich, regardless of where you bought them.

When they say “I’m going to get a Domino’s” or whatever, I ask them which one they’re buying and how much it costs to acquire that franchise. Yes, I’m a smart ****.
 
Not really an issue in these times of social distancing, but walking down a pavement or through a shop where you are walking behind someone going painfully slow and you can't get past them. Nrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggghh! (I'm not talking about a person on crutches here, just someone dawdling along, often talking with their friends whist walking 3 abreast).

I'm a long term believer that pedestrianised areas should have an overtaking lane like motorways or even like on escalators on the tube. Too many 'middle lane hoggers' about in town centres causing 'traffic jams'.
Why are people ALWAYS in a hurry- this annoys me.
 
I don't tend to criticise someone's English as long as I can understand their meaning. That's what language is for and anyway, we all make mistakes. However, when I see a grammar police person being overly critical I scan their post for mistakes and am amazed at how often I find one.

Ye I love when that happens. I tend to correct my wife’s grammar if we have a text argument as I know itll wind her up
