When you tell the pianist at a famous central London piano bar to play "New York State of Mind" and he plays some horse sh*t by Alicia Keys, even though you wrote the song title down for him. Very very poor knowledge and form. London is really losing it.
Piano bars? Up north we have to make do with One Armed Dave, pitched up outside Poundland, with bass drum on his back, cymbals on his knees and a ropey kazoo murdering 'All You Need Is Love'.

My own stupidity. The u-bend under our pipe is leaking and my wife put a big bowl underneath it last night to catch the water (I was out after work). Got up this morning and the bowl was full. Carefully picked it up not spilling anything and emptied it straight down the sink. Naturally I did this before I repaired the pipe and it pissed all over the inside of the cabinet.

And who borrow tools off you and play difficult about giving them back
We have a round swerver in our group.
A mate asked him in front of everyone once...."what is it that you're saving up for xxxxx? It mustn't half be good"
We had a mate at the cricket club who was very shy of visiting the bar. I managed to rustle together a few old pennies, a thruppeny bit & a tanner, and later in the evening I shouted out to him that the last time he bought a drink he'd left his change on the bar. Still didn't shame in to getting a round in though.
Parents in play parks that while their kids are behaving like little shits they either don't do anything about it because they are also shits or because they're too busy with their face in their phones.

Also up north. We have Mr Hotfingers, unfortunately he plays like his hands are actually on fire.
The constant stream of 'Don't adopt a bunny for Easter' posts on social media.
Or the idea that people actually do this? I've never heard of a single person doing this? Are there parts of the country where this is common? Seems like a really stupid thing to do.
People who sit in the outside lane and are going just as fast as the cars in the middle lane.
Get out of the f* way.
I'm going to start flashing lights and using my horn soon. It's so annoying.
It's also against the law
Eh, strictly speaking no it isn't. If you are driving the maximum legal speed and the vehicle to your left is at the same speed and you cannot overtake it without breaking the speed limit then you are not obliged to slow down and move behind it even if there's a queue of people behind you who are willing to break the speed limit.
The person in the middle lane is probably breaking the law though if they do not move to the left when possible. The Highway Code also states that you should not obstruct vehicles attempting to overtake you; I imagine this includes driving at the same speed as the car that is overtaking you.
Seriously?? How many times have we done this, on this very thread now? The bottom line is that the system is outdated for the volume of traffic we have today.

I'm not saying it's right, just pointing out what the Highway Code instructs.

If he still has some/most of his drink left he'll always take a drink on everyone else's round but then drags his drinks out on his round.
He does get a round in (usually when prompted ) but never gets himself one.
They have set a record for consecutive victories and been extremely successful all season until Yours Truly decided to put them into an accy.
They lost 3-0 to foul it up! Worse the others all won.
