Is it bad manners? Noisy (or nosey) neighbours? Crude dress? Expensive groceries? Rainy days? I know this isn't an overly positive toipc, but as is life, we're only human and sometimes things just tick us off...

Unfortunately there are quite a few things that irritate me, some big, some small. Many do involve driving such as being cut off, people not indicating and so on. Some involve pedestrians many of whom appear to think that a car cannot hurt them. If I had a dollar for everyone person who walked behind my car at the supermarket while I am in the middle of reversing out of a parking spot, then I would be extremely wealthy.

although I never really act on my feelings anything relating to bad manners is annoying such as the people who think its ok to leave their rubbish all over the place. Just because someone will clean it up eventually doesn't make it right for you to be a selfish slob.
