    Receiving emails with just my name at the top and no greeting (ie no "Dear" or "Hi" or "Hello")

    The use of "Belgium" as an adjective/demonym

    Really hate this at well... Putting no greeting in front of the email comes across as rude and demanding

  • Charlton fans who don't understand that you can play well and still lose.

    Fan 1: "We hit the post 7 times, had 4 goals disallowed and had two of our players sent off due to a ref involved in match-fixing. Our performance was amazing!"
    Fan 2: "But we still lost"

    Drivers, who have the new 'halogen brighter than the North Star' headlights, but haven't adjusted them, or keep them on full beam. I nearly turned into Ray Charles driving home last night.

    People who think that reading The Guardian makes them automatically intellectual and therefore dismiss other peoples views and their shit doesn't stink.

    People who post/forward Guardian comment pieces as if the piece has been written by someone who doesn't have vested interests or actually bothered to research the matter at hand before writing the piece, or at least consider that the opposing side's argument has merit.

    Also, political cartoons. I can't believe this is a real job, the caricatures barely resemble the politicians they're meant to be lampooning (case in point, Steve Bell, who I assume lost his sight, motor skills and most brain functions many decades ago and is only kept on the payroll because he's still a more functioning human being than Tonybee or Monbiot).

    Jane Garvey.

    No rhyme or reason to it but she really grates on me.

    I believe she was once married to Adrian Chiles who is close to being the male equivalent.
