It's the THINGS THAT IRK YOU thread - not hockey related

[forumname]

Or when a telemarketer or collections call you and you say (ME) Hello ...... [silence] ...... (ME) hello ? ..... (COLLECTIONS) HELLO???.....UGH HELLO? .......


Man that irks me something terrible man. Or when someone calls and says "Hello? Who is this?" WHAT THE BLEEP YOU ARE THE ONE CALLING ME...WHO THE BLEEPIDY BLEEP BLEEP BLEEP ARE YOU? GTFOH!

Dude, make some changes in your life that will get the collections people to stop calling you. Fully agreed on the telemarketers though!

It wasn't for me though. I do need to make changes though. After trade deadline then I will make positive changes.

Socks and sandals.

Too many men wear sandals that shouldn't.

[Call of Doughty]

Nobody's been irked in over a month?

-Sitting with my in-laws flicking through the channels when the remote freezes/jams up while passing by a pay per view porn movie entitled "Balls Deep"......awkward...
-Seeing people ask Doug Ford for selfies at the Ford wake this past week - are you fracking kidding me - get a life - even saw a few in line wearing baseball caps....stay classy ....

When women at work use the men's washroom. They are 1 toilet rooms with locks but there are separate male and female right next to each other. They use them when the women's room is occupied. You know how much they would complain if we used the female's washroom.

This seems to be the way our society is going, gender is fluid. I think it's all garbage, but I'm old. Call me old-fashioned, but I liked it when you could tell a guy from a girl. I'm sure the PC crowd will crucify me for my viewpoint.

I haven't checked if any of these have been covered already but here are a few of mine:

- Materialism
- Superficial people
- Ignorance (a judgment based on it)
- Canadian immigration who decided to change the rules for dual citizens without (in my opinion) thinking about the consequences.
- People who leave their bags on an empty seat on the train during peak times.
- Guys who don't wipe the toilet/ground when they miss.
- (I'm sure I'm guilty of saying it at times without thinking but) the phrase 'to be honest with you'.
- People who don't listen even after you've explained something very clearly.
- Film trailers, or people, saying that say there's a twist at the end. That's a spoiler even if you don't reveal it.

[Canadiens2099]

People who always think they are right and ignore genuine feedback.

Does "TBH" work for you?

[Loch]

People honking at me when I'm jaywalking and I haven't seen them... because they are driving the wrong way up a one-way street.

Would be strange to hear someone say that in verbal conversation.

Funny, a road next to my work is a one-way but we tend to see some drivers going the wrong way, and often we try to flag them down to tell them but they are oblivious, even when there is traffic coming the other direction. They don't realise that there are no lines to separate traffic - oh and the one way sign that should be clear.

I don't want to come across too overly shallow but : fat women that walk really slow but they all walk together in a group and only walk side by side. Thus not allowing any normal walking people to walk past them on the sidewalks or narrow corridors. Maybe it's a defense mechanism cause it's really threatening to have faster moving people walk past them and give that snaring look or maybe they just want to replay that sex in the city intro.

And if you're a slow moving fat chick who loves walking side by side in narrow corridors, I apologize if I offend you. Please move to the side and keep slower traffic to the right and allow people to pass on the left and I will respect you more and will not give you that WTF stare when I run by.

I will stand up for you.....there seem to be people defending every view in life except yours.....

Although to be fair i have no problem with anyone using a public mens room.....i mean its at their own risk really lol

Being in such a PC world that that post needs an apology included.
