Re: Your very petty pet hates

Saying "I'm just off to run the hoover around". We don't and have never owned a Hoover. We've had a Dyson, a Panasonic, a VAX, a Morphy Richards, but never ever have we had a Hoover. Smart marketing by Hoover .. you have to applaud that.

Here's one that's been driving me round the bend lately. Hitting the backspace key while posting on a forum and the cursor goes right back to the beginning of the sentence instead of the one character you want to delete.

People who take the Motorway (Freeway where I am) just to go short distances even if it means going several miles out of their way just to get on!

Re: Your very petty pet hates

that makes no sense.
they use it to go short distances even though it takes longer that it would have had they taken a different route.

Big jackpots on the Euro Millions it would be much fairer if they paid out a bit more for smaller prizes,but its all about greed big wins like the Weirs who won £167 million 2 years ago.Also lotto will be £2 a line from sept another rip off ok if you play lucky dips you can walk away,but if you have a line you have always stuck by then do you carry on incase the six come up or stop?

One night I went to the store with one of my housemates. He takes the motorway to get there even though the store is only 2 miles from my house.

People who drive short distances to places. My neighbours take the car to a shop that is no more than about 400m away from home. Also people who will circle round and round busy car parks to get a space as close to shops as possible. Are they so lazy they can't walk an extra few metres?

I like the big jackpots on the euromillions. What really peeves me off its always old (really old) or fat people that win it. Millionaire raffle is a con, winners seem to be all down south, Last time i looked on the unclaimed prizes Four millionaire raffle prizes where unclaimed in the London area.

Sounds like my neighbourhood. When school lets out traffic in my neighbourhood is often horrendous from the overflow of parents waiting to pick up their kids. What's even more pathetic is that I've known people who drive their high school age kids to and from school! And they wonder why there's a child obesity problem!

OK here's a couple of mine. People who wear sunglasses when there is no sun or wear them on their heads at night because they think they look cool (you really don't!), and prices in shops that end in 99 (what's the point !)
