People who get up yonks before the plane / train / bus has reached its destination

Chill Your Damn Tits.

Those that do it as soon as a plane stops, more than likely to hit you on the head with some oversized holdall smuggled on as hand luggage. Your not going to get to the door any faster and you are going to stand there looking like a muppet for 10 minutes your at the back of the plane anyway.
You are second only to any idiot that attempts to lay back there seat on any flight, and if you attempt it dont dare mutter if my knee is in your back, it would be worse if I had room to move it......

You'd be surprised how many regular workers do this too.

It pisses me off no end when people start saying "excuse me" to get nearer to the doors as we are approaching their stop as they barge through everyone. If we are approaching my stop, I make a habit to not move, ignore them, then make intense eye contact as I get off the train in front of them to make them realise how stupid they are.

Also on the topic of tubes, people who refuse to hold on to anything as they are reading/think they are surfing only to use everyone around them as leverage when the tube moves around unexpectedly. I had a guy blatantly do this when standing next to me so I waited until approaching the next stop and shifted my weight slightly and he fell over into a bunch of people, I hope he learned his lesson.

Yes, especially on a plane when you have the aisle seat - where the feck do they think they're going ? - I always beat them to Passport Control for the fun of it.

Yeah, my stop is the end of the line and there's always a queue forming near the doors 5 minutes from the end of the journey. I take great joy in making sure i'm sat by the door, staying seated until we get to the station and then getting into the front of said queue.

A fairly specific one, but I'm sure there are others on here who have experienced this....

Middle-class white males aged between 18-35 who live in the south of Croydon (Selsdon and Purley I'm looking at you), and upon entering a Kebab Shop or Barber shop immediately have to put on the most ridiculous mockney accent and mannerisms and treat every member of staff like their long lost Cypriot brother, shaking their hands one by one and asking them if they are "alright boss/chief/George/stav"

It happens every time I go to Selsdon, but I've never experienced it any other establishment or in any other area to be honest. In fact, whilst waiting in Selsdon Kebab Centre I've often seen these people come in, shake hands with George and the rest of their brothers, enquire as to their well being and then just leave again without even buying any food.

They just come across as completely insincere tits.

Paying god knows how much for a dish in a good restaurant only to find that the veg that you need with that Sea Bass aren't provided and have to be ordered. Just put it all together on the menu.

Classic example of a person who was quite good, once, quite a long time ago. But has been dining out on it for way too long.

It's called carry on baggage storage... Which is my pet peeve.

It should not matter if I'm the last person on the plane, there should be a place for my official sized carry on bag.

Peope who arrive late on planes and hold everyone up.

viking's no1 06-03-2015 03:59 AM

Duvets only hotels. In the age of choice just give me a sheet and blankets.

Suitcases on the train, if you can afford a holiday you can afford a taxi.

Passengers that work on the plane.

..because you really do not care to read all their crappy self important replies to emails and that spreadsheet which by the looks of it has about 3 cells filled out. Nobody is fooled.

Not sure why this really annoys me but it does.

I've got the last flight out of Malaga a few times and it's always delayed about 45 mins.
When you get to the gate there are loads of people queuing. Ten yards past the queue there is plenty of seating and a large window that overlooks the runway where you can clearly see if the plane has arrived.
Looking at the queue and seeing that the plane isn't there yet amuses and irritates me in equal measures.

Official sized carry on bags that are way to big to allow everyone to to put them in the overhead luggage compartment.

slow-close toilet seats. I need a shit now, not in 5 minutes when you're done descending, thanks
