Oooh, so many niggles so little time to list them.
people who block supermarket aisles/doorways while they talk to each other
Old men in hats driving (usually in a rover doing 25mph on the motorway)
Managers who haven't a clue what their latest plan will actually entail - usually followed by the phrase "suck it and see"

Rant over, you're right, it is such a good feeling to get that off my chest.
Edited for irritating myself with using they're instead of their, goes to shoot myself.
DELUSIONS - There is no greater joy than soaring high on the wings of your dreams, except maybe the joy of watching a dreamer who has nowhere to land but in the ocean of reality
STUPIDITY - Quitters never win, winners never quit, but those who never win AND never quit are idiots.

Product packaging that appears to have been designed with the express intent of preventing you from accessing the contents

Yup...agreed.
Is it me, or is there a way of getting in to that packaging without using a very strong pair of scissors to cut down the sides and then running the risk cutting your hands to shreds on the sharp plastic ?
(Oh, and I hate hosepipes (blogged about 'em before). I have one at the moment that is all unravelled and stiff and not bendy and I can't roll it up and I keep looking at it and thinking I will have to take it on and face up to my fears but....I know it will win. Any counsellors out there who can help ?)

"Two thirds full" they're over flowing and while we are on the subject there's the bottles to the bottle bank, the bathroom bin and the recycling I have to deal with. And it's all done without any complaining what so ever.

"Beerboy" that's a bit harsh, I admit one or two bottles might be mine but what about your wine bottles and marmite jars.

Maybe just me:
Having to clean up other peoples rubbish, in the pouring rain, cause your flatmate wont touch the bin.
People complaining about a conversation in the middle of said conversation, causing conversation to stop.
Complaining about every niggle wrong with a student house, its a student house, its not sposed to be perfect.
being so tired you cant sleep
Washing Machines Not working, when you are running out of pants.

oooh squiggly line in my eye fluid..

UK(WN), 4 yrs I HATE people who park on the cross-hatched boxes at the end of a line of car parking spaces in supermarket car parks.
And NO I don't mean disabled drives who can't find a disabled space - these are able bodied people who are just too bloody lazy to park in one of the hundreds of free spaces and just want to make it difficult for other people to negotiate the car park!
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

This one I either say "Is this a private club or can anyone join in?"
Or,
"Do you mind if I shop in your shop?"
Or better still (I will do this one day). Put something expensive in their trolley and watch their face as they bring it out at the checkout.

:: cyclists on country roads riding side by side and blocking the whole road.
:: men (and I say men cos I've yet to see any woman doing it) wearing those stupid handsfree phone ear things constantly even when they're not talking and they're hands aren't busy !!
:: people who think their baby is the most wonderful thing ever created and that everybody, as they get off the bus, must smile and wave to it/him/her !
ooooh .. there too many more ... I must stop now !!
