The Twenty's Plenty campaign. A bunch of sad acts and weirdos with nothing better to do than try to waste everyone else's time.2

morons who try to squeeze in to an already packed train. Clearly the doors won't close if your half in the train and half out.
Just as well I'm not a train driver as I'd be sorely tempted to pull away, doors closed or not.1 -
Looking in the Mirror, and where once i saw a super stud staring back.

People who tell me there is not a problem when there is.....I recently checked into a hotel and my online booking was missing. These things happen. I could see there was a problem, so I asked "Is there a problem?" I was told that everything was fine as the receptionist muttered in a panic stricken way to her superior, searching frantically for a room. I asked if there was a problem again. Again, "no" was the reply. I could actually hear her muttering "we can't give him a cheaper room, we'll have to upgrade him". Which, is what they did, after 5 minutes of panic and mumbling. And, a very nice room it was too.2

Phrases that appear out of nowhere and are suddenly used beyond all need or reason: The elephant in the room; be careful what you wish for; may you live in interesting times; keep calm and carry on. And the absolute worst, 'I'm a glass half full/empty type person'. No you're not, you're an optimist or a pessimist.

Not sure if you're joking or not but I'm referring to the campaign to lower 30mph speed limits to 20mph in urban areas.cafcsinger said:

People wrongly inserting the letter 'S' when not required.
Three off the top of my head as examples:

No need for it. Tal Ben Haims, Roger Johnsons - you wouldn't put an s in their names.
By the same token you wouldn't remove an S either. EG;
Rhoys Wiggin
Yoni Buyen
Chris Eagle

Microwaves that only work if you input the command in a certain order eg power > weight > time. I'm heating up a steak bake, not disarming an IED.2

Add to that the numbskull woman on the BBC Budget coverage : "one pence" off a pint of beer.... . One is singular and pence is plural. That's a penny you dimwit.ricky_otto said:

When you purchase a coffee or a pasty and it's given to you at such a high temperature, it's impossible to drink/eat without doing serious harm to yourself.1

When commentators use the expression "in and around" in relation to a team's position in the league ( "they have a run of games against teams in and around them...."). How can a team be "in" another team you bunch of tw@s?0

Sounds just like the gents in the East Stand on a Saturday afternoon.thai malaysia addick said:Taps in the gents that fire water at your hands so that water embarrassingly ricochets all over you.
Add to that, hand driers that have no oomph at all so they don't dry your hands at all.0 - Sponsored links:

Totally unnecessary away strips. You only need a change of shirt when it is total clash like Charlton v Man Utd or QPR v Reading or Notts County v Newcastle etc.5

Anything less then 3 minutes extra time at the end of the 2nd half1

That annoyed me as well. I would have thought that someone would have told her that this is incorrect.Bryan_Kynsie said:

My favourite is people that pronounce ask, arkse. This is local to the youth of London and emanates from what I classify as 'rude boy' or 'ghetto speak'.
As I'm saaarrrfff London, I often say ain't when I should say isn't, so I know I have room to improve, but listening to some of the shit I hear similar to above, can't stand it.1 -
People who call additional time "extra time". Extra time is only used after the game has finished and when a definite result is required. The time added on for stoppages etc by the ref at the end of each half is additional time.2

Technically I think it is meant to be part of the original time of 90 mins that has not yet been used for football.Riviera said:People who call additional time "extra time".

People who call me and begin by saying this is not a sales call. I sometimes reply "That's a pity. I've only got time for sales calls" and hang up.4
