Holy shit that x-ray of you even looks painful.

Back to complaining (Red Duke, I'm glad you're OK but this thread is about complaining).

How about idle people who come out of supermarkets, take their bags out of the trolley and just leave it there rather than take it to the trolley bay.

People who go outside somewhere for a fag but stand so close to the door all the smoke gets blown back in.

Fat people who think they've got some sort of disease rather than accepting that they trough too much.

People who buy a £60K performance car and then moan about the cost of spares/tyres/servicing etc.

People who think that by giving you work they have in some small way paid for your car.

The banks who got bailed out but still won't help people despite giving themselves generous bonuses.

Actors who refer to their profession as "a craft". WTF? You're being paid to be someone else and the soap actors are being themselves! How hard can it be?

Celebrities with over inflated egos.

Jordan, real name, Katie Price.

Reality TV.

The Labour Party.

NP Tazz, it was originally intended as a rant! Lol

I hate slow drivers, who then speed up or flash you for overtaking them, when they're pottering along doing 30 in a 60!

I also hate the idiots who do 45 through a 60, and then stick at 45 through a 30!

+1 on Katie Price, and I'll add Kerry Katona to that list too. And boy bands. And girl bands who think by wearing next to nothing will help them sell their shit records to prepubescent teenage boys!

Oh, I hate when I was in traction and dreaming I was running, only to wake up in pain, legs flailing like I'm running, like that dog on YouTube, except it left me in agony.

I can't stand chavs who play banging music in their cars. Specially in some other language why don't they just listen to their own annoying music themselves? Why do they think others need to hear what only they can understand in the first place? It's just pathetic really! The other day I'm standing outside a take away shop waiting for my kebab when an Asian guy in a tacky Golf is playing some really really banging loud music that's rattling his rust bucket. The annoying thing was that he is going back and forth for no reason and accelerating unnecessarily in a built up area. Secondly he is cranking up this music which I believe must have been in some Indian language only himself understands. Honestly I have no idea what the need for that is! If you want to listen to your music, do so, but for crying out loud why do you have to play it so freaking loud?

Queuing up for petrol sat patiently behind a car In front only to find they are doing their daily shop.

Whilst on the subject; petrol prices, it's ridiculous. I have a diesel volvo that is used as my daily, its a good car. Went diesel to try and keep running costs down, now it's more expensive then unleaded and any saving i was making is now negligible.

People who park with no consideration for others.

All this dust that keeps covering the car within hours of me washing the car!

Why do the same people who drive with their music on super loud, also have their seats so low down that they looking like they are reclining in their lounge? makes me laugh....

also....why is it acceptable for a young black kid to be standing on the side of the duck pond throwing stones at the ducks? and i do mean really having a good go at hitting them.....he got told in no uncertain terms to pack it in, cue argument with his gangbanga sisters....classy.....just love society today.

That does annoy me so much and specially when they have their shades on and think they look cool and put their arm out of the window constantly looking left right trying to attract attention. I feel like punching them in the face tbh.
Worse thing is when they come next to you and starts talking about the GTR and gives you a thumbsup too. Reluctant to even look at them let alone establishing a conversation.

Worse than that even (that is bad) is someone who strikes up a conversation about your car (whatever it is) and proceed to tell you everything they know about the car, which usually ranges from not much to nothing at all, i m currently a E92 M3, and i ve heard such things as the bulge in the bonnet is because of the big turbo....and worse!

this thread is really making me think.....

The loud music, seat back, nodding of the head.....general attention seeking in anyway shape or form, the mint thing about all of this....the cars usually nothing to write home about!

must be something about living in SE london, that makes me bitter

Next up, some more objects of annoyance:

Ar5e lickers - Chris Moyles hangers on and Chris Evans sycophants before he got effectively pensioned off.

Sea food - it would be okay if it didn't smell like fish or have the constituency of rubber.

People who pull up in a layby to eat their Maccy D's and then leave all the wrapping on the floor as they drive away.

Security guards - many, not all, have this power thing going on whereby they are a total no-mark on civvy street through their complete inability to succeed at anything but once they have the uniform on and carrying the walkie talkie, they can stamp some authority on all comers.

The A14 - some of my best work has been reached down this road but who's idea of torture was it to make it just a dual carriageway?

People texting whilst driving (A14 and other roads).

Time, or lack of it, for activities outside of work.

So called "experts", normally associted with TV programs (A Place In The Sun, Hotel Inspector, any Sarah Beeny program) but can be forund in other walks of life, otherwise known as consultants. These appear to be people who have an overview of a subject without a complete grasp of it. It can generally be found that they can talk about a subject with enough conviction to convince people who don't know better, but should, that they are an expect.

The bastardisation of the English language by the Americans and our willingness to adopt their slangish ways of talking and saying things.

The stupid Schweppes advert that has just been on.

Super injuctions. If you're going to take one out, why then confess after a few weeks?

Cheryl Cole. Talent, what talent?

Adam Sandler. Made some good films but the Waterboy most definitely isn't one of them.

Tesco - just too powerful.

Smart cars. I've had bigger novelties in a Kinder Surprise Egg, these have got to be one of the most hazardous cars on the road. A short wheelbase, narrow track and a rear windscreen that is supported by the back of your head doesn't seem too safe to me.

Lady GaGa - an undoubted marketing success but what a **** up!

NASCAR racing - yep, there's plenty of skill driving those big oval tracks in top gear.

1980's hair styles. It's just about acceptable to admit liking the music from this era but hair styles like the mullet should've stayed their. Still popular with the Germans it seems.

Chris Harris for always managing to mention Porsche 911's in every article he ever writes.

Duff tattoos.

Gammy teeth, worse on women but not a good look on anyone.

Media manipulation.

New type of virus which has taken over young people (even a bit older in some cases). It has replicated and spread faster than bacteria and is spreading at an alarming rate day by day.
That's right! the new type of language that young people use (very popular in ethnic minorites). This type of language, I believe is associated with people from black race (origins) originally it seems. That's all fine, as perhaps in Jamaica or other African countries this is how the citizens must communicate. Oh and before anyone relates this to racism, let me be clear, it has nothig to do with racism in any shape or form, we are only discussing the use of "language" here. Right.... so back to the point. This new type of language has somehow become very popular and I must say it's extremely annoying and moreover, I personally struggle to understand anyone speaking in that manner.
As I said, if I hear people from black background speak their style of the English language it's kind of acceptable to a degree (though very annoying still), but what really pisses me off is that you see and hear people from other backgrounds trying to imitate (people from black backgrounds). This is specially common amongst Asians in particular. They want to be black for some reason known to themselves. Firstly I must point out, it does not suit them, secondly why don't they try and be themselves rather than something else? Almost any Asian guy you see, would talk as if he is black.
A typical example of the use of the language would be as such:
Wag1 blud, you kool yeah!
Wagwan g wass gwaning blud?
Wassup b you ayte?
Nah blud, manz high you know, I'm on sum next ting blud, u get me?
Worse thing is, this new disease called "facebook" is full of people like that with this type of language useage. It makes me sick tbh.
And even funnier, a while back as I'm driving, I notice a Renault Megane weaving in and out of traffic like an idiot and guess what the private plate is? WA55 UP G This Asian dude who probably thinks he is not Asian for some reason has found his dream private plate! I mean seriously what sort of an idiot do you have to be to bother looking for a private plate which says that bullshyte? It's beyond me to even comprehend.
Some time ago I'm in Ealing parked up sitting in my GTR minding my own business. I had my window down and an Asian guy approches me and says "this is a nice whip blud" "wa you sayin g you are from round here?" I tried to ignore him but I didn't want to come across as rude, so reluctantly I answered his questions... well... to the parts I could understand at least. then he goes "can you take me for a spin in this thing fam?" I mean seriously what society do these people live in and who do they communicate with? Obviously someone who understands them.
