Advantages: stops me shaking violently

Disadvantages: have to think of something else to rant about!

After reading a few of these Room 101 rants, I thought I'd throw one of my own into the wilderness that is Dooyoo. So here's ten (Overkill I know) things that I'd dearly love to vanish off the face of the earth....

I'm naturally an easily annoyed person (as anyone who knows me will tell you!) so this is surprisingly easy for me to write!

1) Random car vandals.

This is one thing that truly winds me up. Currently I live in one of the most infamous housing estates in Scotland unfortunately, so there is a massive amount of petty crime such as car break ins, burglary, drugs etc. None of these bother me as much a random car vandals though. The sheer fact that they do it for no good reason really gets to me! I mean, I can almost understand it if they were stealing something (if you get what I mean), but the scrotes that go around scratching cars, smashing windscreens (4 months ago!), and slashing tyres (2 months ago now!) really should get something better to do with their lives, rather than forcing poor people like me to pay out money they cannot afford to!

2) Anthea Turner.

I have not got a clue why she annoys me at all. On the face of it she's a friendly, bubbly, pleasant TV presenter who looks like butter wouldn't melt. It must be a sixth sense or something...maybe there something sinister about her. I truly don't know!

Every time I see her face on TV or in the paper I just have to flip sides or turn the page... Actually becoming quite obsessive about it now!

3) Shopping trolleys.

Back when I was at school (all those years ago!) I had a part time job shoving trolleys at my local Sainsburys store. A nice easy job in which you can wander about at your leisure as long as the job gets done! Anyway..that's away from the point...

What annoys me is the fact that

A) So many people simply cannot drive the things

B) There is always two women stoo
d in the middle of an aisle blocking it with their damn trolleys.

C) Why the hell do so many of my neighbours steal the things to use as their own personal heavy duty lugging device?! Hire a van for Pete's sake! The amount of times I've seen people shifting settees with the things is unreal!

4) Biscuit packets.

Whay are the first and last biscuit ALWAYS broken? WHY?! No matter how carefully I pluck them from the shelves, and pack them away it's always the same. Infuriating!

5) Bus Drivers.

They're getting as bad as the HGV drivers that you battle with on the motorways. Everywhere I go I have to dodge at least 3 buses that are been driven by, it seems, maniacs! They pull out without signalling, dive in and out of lanes, and stop in the most inconvenient of places.

Apart from that, one of my local bus drivers smells of wee :(

6) Mornings.

Why do they always have to creep up on you? I can never get through a morning without tons of coffee and a good smack round the back of the head.

Never ever get up on time because I know that Morning is waiting for me on the outside of the duvet.

Why don't they just abolish the things?!

7) Mondays.

These annoy me even more than mornings. Friday night, relaxed, looking forward to the weekend, great! But come saturday night I begin to dread the end of the following day, knowing full well that there is a Monday following shortly after it. It even gets to the point of me waking up on Sunday and beleiving that it is Monday in my half-comatosed state. Numerous times I have panicked and started sticking on my shirt and tie, only for Sarah to look over and laugh her backside off at me!

8) Star Trek (not counting the original series).

The only thing that annoys me about the newer series' is the fact that they are no more than glorified soap operas with pointy ears and pasties for foreheads!
Gone is the classic out-in-space-meeting-aliens tension, and in comes the most banal storylines known to man! Another reason I get annoyed by it is the fact that Sarah is ALWAYS watching them!...she is not a trekkie though (she made me say that through threat of violence!)

9) Computer keyboards, and my hands.

They never seem to agree with eachother. No matter how carefully I think I'm typing I ALWAYS manage to get the same silly typo's such as missing letters, spaces in odd places, and even random windows menus! I think there some kind of vendetta against me with these things...

10) Dogs.

They have to be the thickest creatures I have ever witnessed. I don't know why, but the dumbest always seem to be tan/brown mongrels! Every single time.

Why oh why do they enjoy chasing cars down the road? They risk their very lives by running in front of them, and then gallop beside trying to bite them... Do they think cars are made of meat or something? Plain old stupidity!

And they chase their tails...nuff said.


I hope my rantings have brought some kind of amusement to you all...and I'm not that highly strung honest!

I must admit though... I am now shaking and want to crush something small, cute and furry.
