Being invited to a meeting during lunchtime with the caveat "A sandwich lunch will be provided". It doesn't replace the one hour break I'm entitled to and your crappy sandwiches don't make up for being able to choose what I want to eat for lunch!
I don't even talk to my colleagues on my lunch break, I put my headphones on. I'm not being paid right now, so your boring story of what you got up to on the weekend can fucking wait.
Young women with the inability to steer a buggy through a crowded shop while talking bollox to their mates on a phone wedged between their ears and shoulder.
Customers in IKEA treating it as a family day out.
There's Dad, who's put his rucksack on the ground to one side, sitting on a chair in the corner of the bedroom waving at Mum taking a picture on her mobile whilst the kids are causing havoc elsewhere. Grandad looks thoroughly miserable sitting at a £16 desk and Nanny Doris has wandered off to the checkouts to stock up on meatballs.

The oversize posters on the side of Tesco lorries of people laughing as if their life depended on it. Nothing's that funny unless you've just seen your Granny catch her tit in the mangle.
Getting this message "I just got a message from [leader of my daughter's beaver club] to say she's unwell, and beavers is cancelled tonight"
And then my phone predicting the following replies "bummer" and "fingers crossed". Say wha? As after I'd ever say "bummer", I'm not a Californian teenager from the late 80s. Furthermore, fingers crossed would be a non sequitur. I hope this isn't AI at work

Gadzooks. Firstly, are they trying to kill the birds with those scones? Nothing could be worse for them. Secondly, animal models are far superior to in vitro studies, and in any case you aren't testing on the test tube, but whatever is in it.

Plant by the thorns perhaps, but flower? Stick to eating them you numpties
