    This is a thread where we b-tch about the common, everyday behaviours we just cannot stand. There are plenty of stuff that irritates me, but a major one has to be people who use English words when they speak Swedish (it is faaar too common here); it ruins the flow and melody of the language and just comes out as white trash to me.

    Another major one is people who chew like cows and people who slurp (absolutely disgusting) when they drink... Oh! And people who whisper when they read to themselves - wtf is up with that? Whispering in general is friggen disgusting.

    What behaviours annoy you the most?

    Incorrect use of " begging the question".
    Chewing with mouth open.
    Nose pickers.
    Slow drivers in the fast lane.
    People who answer " good" when you ask "how are you?".
    And on and on .

    And people who yawn loudly and don't cover their mouths.

    People who loudly chew with open mouth. Drives me nuts! Were you raised by adults?
    People who stop to talk with someone in the crowd and block the way through for others. Can’t you move to a side?
    Retards who slow down on a highway to watch a car that was pulled over on the opposite side of the highway!

    Muslims who use weapons to practice their religion.

    People who leach off the system...

    And then complain about it.

    What about those who sneeze loudly? I'm reminded of when I worked the night shift: on a quiet news night everyone in the editorial would be at that stage 'twixt 3 & 5 am where it's impossible to stay awake, and there was this senior editor (not out of mischief but purely out of habit) who'd suddenly let out the LOUDEST effing sneeze, thereby galvanizing the comatose journalists into a sort of panic-stricken wakefulness thinking a 'snap' had come in from one of our foreign correspondents reporting the end of the world. :roflol:

    When I come out of Sainsbury's, there's a duel exit from the link road, the left exit for traffic turning left, and the right exit for traffic turning right, which is the one for me.). So far, so obvious! But as the main road is an arterial one, the traffic light sequencing means that if I just miss a green it takes an age before it goes to green again. 'So what annoys him about that?', I hear you cry? Well I'll tell you: it's when the car in front of me in the right hand exit has its right-hand blinker going for the entire time. FFS :frustrated: :steamed: :wall: I've even seen drivers already in the supermarket car park switch on their blinker to turn into one of the spaces!! :rolleyes:

    My mate who tries to act appalled by Trump's behaviour with women even though he's spent over $15,000 in the last 3 years in strip joints on cocaine and hookers.

    I find it hard for him to take the moral high ground lol.

    You take the time to meet a friend somewhere for lunch to just visit and catch up, and they pay attention to their damn phone.

    "Oh, hang on a second." ... and they return a text message. The phone dings for an incoming email, and they stop talking with you to read it. Ugh!



    You're in medium - heavy traffic going just as fast as the traffic ahead of you. You can't go any faster, even if you'd like to, and some jerk is tailgating you.

    I feel that way about professing Christians who claim to worship the Prince of Peace while brandishing guns and singing "Onward Christian soldiers".

    I'm not married but the walls in our tenement are paper thin and you can hear people half way across the hallway. Imagine what it's like at night when I sneeze like that!

    That scares the heck out of me every time. Don't even tell those people "bless you".

    I'm thinking that the normally would but you have to wonder what they actually say if I sneeze in the middle of the night as I often do. :lol:

    Friggen annoying when people use them. Often you will hear words such as "research", "backlash" or "audition" in the middle of an otherwise fully Swedish sentence and that is just too annoying. I am probably guilty of this myself, from time to time. But, it is just wrong and weird. Ugly too! One of the most popular ones in my age group is "oh, my god"... Friggen hate that!

    "OK" ('okej') is among the least awful and more acceptable ones. "Weekend", however... I'd prolly kill the person who used that. :laughing: I've actually only heard "weekend" being used by travel agencies.
