[cite]Posted By: Six-a-bag-of-nuts[/cite]Pedestrians who walk on the side of the path with the painted white bicycle (i.e the cycle path) instead of the other side of the white line with the painted white man(i.ewhere you should freaking be)
No amount of glaring at me is going to make you right; pushchair dog or whatever, just makes you doubly dense.
Grrrr.

I hate cyclists but, to be fair, this gets my goat too, because the cyclists have to swerve into the pedestrian bit to avoid the idiots who can't follow a very basic instruction. That's a theme for a lot of these...

You hate cyclist's?
Im crushed Morts. Crushed. ;-)

I'll tell you what, though; I hate cyclist's that ride on the pavement. Get the f*ck in the road.
I also hate cyclist's in all the gear; lycra shorts etc who think they're Lance freaking Armstrong in a public park.

McLovin

When a train is slowing down as it pulls into the platform and somebody walks to where the door is and then looks startled that the door has moved on, and has to re-set their trajectory toward another door (repeat until train has stopped). I appreciate that this in no way affects me, but I just think that if you are that thick, you shouldn't be out. It is the human equivalent of a dog running off slavering when you pretend to throw a stick for it.

I'd add to this people who stand in a spot quite happily for 10 minutes and then immediately start walking up the platform the minute a train starts pulling in. Pick where you want to be and wait there. Not difficult.

Going on the train platform thing, i generally just stand/lean in the one spot whilst waiting for a tain - what irritates me is someone walking really slowly up and down the platform, almost brushing past me everytime we cross. Just stand still!

[cite]Posted By: Henry Irving[/cite]I can agree with what Sparrows Lane said about people in queues who wait until they reach the counter to decide what to get

This reminds me of my pet hate, very much a personal one as a referee:

Kids' football managers who, when at tournaments where we have to keep to tight schedules and they know it, despite having had the whole of the previous game (or two or three) to pick their team/sort their tactics insist on waiting til their darlings take the field of play to start the match to do it. Mate, we have 20+ games to fit in here before nightfall and we all have homes to go to - you're not Fergie or Wenger, get over yourself and SORT IT OUT!!!!

Amen to that

crisp packets being the wrong colour. Cheese & Onion crisps come in green bags and Salt & Vinagar in blue bags. Anything else is just not natural.

I actually thought Walkers were quite ground breaking in doing this, it set them apart. What irritates me more is how others (latest being ASDA) are jumping on the bandwagon.
