When there are 5 empty benches in the gym changing room and someone comes and plonks down all their stuff right next to you. Why?!

Once again people who let their dogs off the leash and have absolutely no control over the dog.

Had to have another set too with some stupid woman this morning. This on top of the fact that our little town has a rule that all dogs must be kept on a leash within the town limits.

Sounds like you’re about to unleash the fury.

Don’t get me started….

I once sat down in an empty train compartment. The next guy that got on, with the choice of any other seat decided to sit down next to me.
I huffed and puffed so much that we exchanged words (nothing offensive) and he moved.
By the time the train left it was rammed (as the guy had predicted).
I didn't have a problem with someone sitting next to me, I just thought it was weird to do that in an otherwise empty train, to the point that it really annoyed me.
As it turned out I ended up feeling a bit ashamed that I had made an issue of it.

Why did you feel ashamed though? What was his reason for doing it?

I think I had reached an age where on reflection it seemed a trivial thing to make an issue of.
As to his reason, who knows. He just kept saying the train will fill up anyway.
Having said all that, I think it would still annoy me if it happened again

in theory it's the correct thing to do. if you know for sure that the train will fill and you're on your own then you should sit next to someone else who is on their own to allow people travelling in pairs to sit together

however, screw the theory. in the real world it's just weird

Whenever I go to the shops I park miles away from the entrance so no shithead parks next to me and my paintwork remains unmolested 

Guaranteed I will return to some cocksucker parked right next to me then nobody else for miles

Why does it have two parts, when you only use one part anyway

can someone make it make sense for me, the bottom zip just gets in the way when trying to do the coat up

Ok, Arsene.

The make sense in a long coat I think as you can unzip from the bottom up to get better access to trouser pockets for example.  

That you are actually able to do a PHD in marginalised football fans at Leeds University.

Crisps. Bought a bag of McCoy's which were once advertised as man crisps due to the amount you get. Now it's a pitiful amount. Much like men in this day and age.

Migraines. Wouldn't wish them on anybody. 

i'm very grateful ive never been impacted by this. The only time I ever get headaches is because i've made a conscious decision to get battered down the pub, and couldn't be bothered to neck a pint before hitting the pillow.

Lazyness.
Suckers who get taken in by media lies from their preferred outlets, without taking the time and effort to check and verify the facts via multiple outlets and source documents.

I agree, the Sun, Mail and Express have been annoying me for years and now it is far worse with the rise of social media and wacko websites. But you are still left with the same problem, who to believe. Whoever or wherever you get your info from you may choose to believe its not correct or not fitting your opinions. You could start with the bits you want to believe and then try to find source that fits. 
Or you could just read or listen to the BBC because its as close to the truth most of us need or want most of the time and when its not or may have slight bias its probably unintentional.

The TV show, Portrait Artist of the Year, or more specifically the judging on it.

Love watching some amazingly gifted artists do their work and see how the paintings emerge - but the judges so often let it down by favouring what to most people (I suspect) would be the least impressive work.

Painting doesn't look anything like the sitter - no worries, the artist captured their "persona".

I went to watch the Portrait Artist of the year this year and it was like watching paint dry. I left after an 45 minutes and went to the pie n mash shop in lavender hill then a few pints in the nearby pub which was more interesting 🧐 shame really as I enjoy watching it on the telly.
