Room 101

[Jordanovichy]

I thought it would be cool to have a Room 101 topic! So post your pet hates here and why you think I should put them into Room 101. Those that are successful shall be edited into this!



People standing on the top of escalators for no apparent reason really REALLY hacks me off so that one can definitely go in.

Definitely agree with Gavin with the whole 'standing at a checkout' then being surprised they have to pay. Winds me up beyond belief, get your !?&£(@& purses/wallets out earlier, just holding everyone else up those people are in Room 101!

I agree with Sue about the Archers, but not so much the story line, that doesn't bother me (even with the crap and laughable sound effects), its the theme! OMG (<-- don't usually use that) it is just horrible! duh duh duh duh duh duh, it almost a terrible version of In Dulci Jubilo, and that is bad enough >.<

Agreed with Ian when Facebook statuses consist of just emotions, 'I'm happy' or 'bad day'. That is in Room 101, hate that so much.

There have been many rants about the way people use cars, I shall put into Room 101 those who undertake, those who tailgate, those who hog lanes etc etc.

I also want to put those who stink out the house with their cooking into Room 101, it isn't fair and it is extremely selfish!

Facebook attention seekers who post fish-faced pics saying 'I'm so ugly' or similar stupidity, these can go into Room 101 and deserve to die. Social networks are there to SOCIALISE, not to seek attention!

Vodafone signal. Anywhere where there is a slight incline within 1000km of you signal doesn't reach you, and when it does it just doesn't work, the only 3G signal I know that won't load internet. Enjoy your place in Room 101!

Truckers/lorries that try to 'race' (i.e. pass) each other on the highways/motorways (speaking American for our American friends :wink: ). They reach their limited speed when next to each other and thus cannot pass each other so all the other motorists are just stuck behind them. Off to Room 101 you go!

I never expected this to be so popular! It's great! Keep them coming!

Wasps they are annoying and have no place on this earth.

 

[nadroJ]

Oooh, I have lots.

-Most of the customers I have to deal with and their ridiculous questions
- People who decide to stop at the top of escalators
- People who post about what a great person they are of Facebook to get some sort of gratification
- People who think everyone is copying them but actually things are just in fashion at the time, get over yourselves
- People posting pictures of their kids/cats all over the internet, nobody cares

^ agreed on the people stoping at the top of escalators, I mean what is wrong with people?

 

[Mysterious Sue]

The Archers. I've gotten old and started listening to Radio 4 politics programs and quiz shows on my way to and from work, but then that stupid bloody music comes on and ahhhh. It's a terrible program and a pathetic representation of country life. <\boring old git>

I'm trying to think of things that aren't just people related, but struggling. The escalator thing is a real pet hate of mine. I've even experienced, multiple times, people walking up the escalators, and then stopping on the flat bit at the top. Why?!

Anyway, other than the escalator thing:

1. People who will stand at a supermarket checkout for 10 minutes while the checkout whore scans things things through, and then, when it's finally finished, seem suddenly shocked that they're expected to pay for their items and start fishing around in their handbag for their purse. TWATS!

2. Similarly, people who'll stand in a queue for ages at a fast food restaurant, where the full "menu", for want of a better word, is on display the entire time, only to get to the counter and start scratching their chin and/or discussing with the person they're with what they're going to get. C**TS!

3. People getting on a plane/train and checking the numbers on EVERY seat to see if it's theirs. Guess what, if you're in seat 46F, you can probably just keep it moving for a bit love!

 

[FaceYourNemesis]

1. Idiots that hog supermarket aisles with their trollies and then give you a look when you say "excuse me please"
2. People who don't say thank you when you hold doors open for them

OK, imagine that, but I (the waitress) have just said 'are you ready to order?' they go 'Oh yes, we're really hungry we're really ready to order!' or have waved me over or said to the door host that they want to order as soon as possible, and THEN open the menu and begin browsing it in front of me, pen in hand, waiting impatiently for them to order. Because, you know, there's nothing else I'd rather be doing. Morons.

2. People who don't say thank you when you hold doors open for them

People who hold a door open whilst you're MILES away, and watch you stroll over, and then give you dirties that you took that long. Those **** never get thanked.

Gross people at the gym who stand around holding their ridiculous forearms around, not doing anything, and smiling with their stupid, ugly faces, like anyone else would want to look like the Terminator got ran over.

People at work who **** things up and then try to get you to sort it out. They would probably say the **** who then rats them out to management for their **** ups <3

So many.

litterbugs - particularly when there's a bin just next to them

I sometimes hold the door open on purpose when someone is miles away just to watch them suddenly jog a little bit to speed up.

Hahahahahaha! I was just about to post exactly the same thing. Trolling real life FTW! It's the little things that get you through the day.

People who are better at blame management than their actual job? They put more time and effort into working out why it wasn't their fault things **** up than they ever did trying to do things right in the first place. Anybody else who touches it (even to help out) then gets put into part of the blame circle. It's like The Apprentice only with even more stupid and annoying people, but you have to work with them for years!

"I couldn't do that because I had to clean out my email inbox for IT".

Yeah, that's because you've got 50Gb of cat pictures on it was making the email server fall over - the last time it did (due to your ****), you said "I couldn't do that because the email server was offline". First of all, it happened three weeks after you were meant to to do actual work. Secondly, the work involved getting off your arse and putting a bit of paper in an envelope, which you could have done while the email server was offline/waiting for cat pictures to delete. Thirdly, you're a ****

 

[Ian]

- People who post about what a great person they are of Facebook to get some sort of gratification

This and variations of it.

Example; "I'm happy!!!!!" or "I had a great day today!!!!" with no explanation why.

The opposite is annoying too, posting **** like unhappy faces or "Bad day" or "I'm upset" again without explanation.

Attention seeking twats.

 

[caffeine_demon]

Both politics and religion!

 

[kimahri]

I'm in the 'The people at work are ****' club but here they have a egotistical self imposted management syndrome here because they've been here for years and are old so they think their word is law.

As a person who works on checkouts, this can be really annoying! Also, when I have finished scanning all their items and then they decide they have forgotten something, so they head on off to get that thing - only to find that they spend around 5 mins grabbing more than one item! It's even worse when it is rather busy so you are making the customers behind you, wait even longer to be served! :x

EDIT: Also, get rid of those huge spiders that are too big to be picked up and taken outside!

Yep, exactly.

On our team because if you **** up it can mean risking literally millions of pounds, everyone is super quick to assign blame and say it's not them. So then it comes to me to sort out cause I'm the best on the team although I've been there the least time, and then they try to blame me. So I always spite them by EXPOSING them <3

Also, people who think because they're slightly senior and have been there thirty years that they rule me. It's like, nah babes, I've been here a year and they're already looking at getting me to your grade so don't make me do your copying cause I'm better than you. Today I actually EXCLAIMED that I didn't get a degree to do **** photocopying.

They must all HATE me <3

 

[tks]

Work colleagues who think they have a right to take Christmas off because they have children.

Why should I be punished for not bringing yet another mouth to feed into this world? Damn breeders.

 

[Mysterious Sue]

Work colleagues who think they have a right to take Christmas off because they have children.

OMG this! Why should I have to beg to get a week off in August - you know, the only month we have **** sunshine - only to be glared at like I'm evil because I'm not putting the families first. I always say I have friends who are teachers and I have to go on holiday at the same time the schools break up!
