Re: Your very petty pet hates

As a cyclist I agree with this, but I would say it’s people on bikes rather than cyclists, we’re usually on the road annoying motorists ��

I'm a keen mountain biker, i usually cycle too, i use the roads and some drivers need to respect cyclists and give us room.

Cyclists who cycle everywhere on the PAVEMENTS !!

Despite the thousands of miles of annoying cycling lanes ( unused ) !!

Drug taking in general..

Drug cheats in sport !!

Bradley Wiggins and Froome ???

Mo Farah .. under investigation apparently.. ?

Now Canelo Alvarez ??

Canelo failed a drug test recently story broke yesterday .. his backers ( money men ) say he's eaten tainted beef !!

In his last fight a few months ago Canelo was found to be lacking power and stamina so he's been training at altitude and eating 'tainted' beef ?!


For what it's worth the general concensus at the very experienced Mayweather gym is that they think he got 'caught'

One current champion says he's thought to be on PEDs


You decide ...

I know in the past spelling weren't always standardised & the pronunciation of words has changed over the centuries while the spellings haven't.

Cool to see someone feels the same as i do.

For example here in the uk the word centre is said center which is the u.s spelling.
In america its said how its spelled.

Whats the point a word being spelled a certain way if its said in a totally different way and with silent letters depending on the persons/s saying it.

Its became a pet hate much more recently.

that always drives me round the bend. Many locales in the us are like that. Examples: Cairo, illinois (pronounced "kay-row"), orion lake, michigan (pronounced "oar-ree-un"), houston street, new york city (pronounced by the locals as "house-ton')

There are a lot in the USA, one being a Milan which the locals call My-lan & Lima in Ohio pronounced Ly-ma/

Re: Your very petty pet hates

Names and words said very differently to how their spelled.
Words names with silent letters.


i say words names as they are spelled.

My biggest pet hate is when i have sticky fingers after eating, i can't wash my hands quick enough! Another pet hate is when i leave my car at home and get a bus into town and someone smelly sits next to me!

The free bus in my town seems to attract some people who think getting to 60 means they don't need to bother washing themselves or their clothes as often as they used to.

I hate it when people are not treated equally, be it if someone is male or female, black or white, young or old, rich or poor, etc. And I don't like "Positive Action" either.

I don't like seeing footballers spit either - snooker players and athletes don't spit, so why should footballers?

Premium Rate telephone numbers. Full stop. It might be lucrative, but I don't like them.

When Christmas nearly gets grinched by unexpected expenses that come all at once.

People spitting. Haven't gone through all the posts in this thread, but it's a phenomenon I've noticed over the few months. Bloody disgusting.

Stupid arses riding bikes in pedestrian areas. They do it in our TC all the damn time weaving in and out of the Christmas shoppers. They seem to think the rules don't apply to them. It's only a matter of time before someone gets badly hurt by one of these inconsiderate cyclists.
