Re: What pet hates do you have in life?

Just witnessed another pet hate while out walking. Electric bikes or scooters that have been software updated to remove the speed restriction set at manufacture. Especially those that ride on the pavements, they are like guided missiles that weave in and out of pedestrians with unprecedented speed and little chance of stopping.

I had my shoulder nudged from behind as a scooter rider squeezed in between me and another pedestrian. If I had changed direction and walked in front of him, he would never have stopped in time. He carried on riding not even looking back.

Dishonesty, teachers not closing windows before leaving, teachers leaving their mess in the ICT room for someone else to shift, Michael Gove, scam telephone calls, slugs, wasps, people who intentionally belittle, unkindness, celery and sprouts.

And the people that say "sorry" for anything they do.
Sorry about that Trout. It's just a British thing. [Big grin.png]

We are all sorry for saying sorry when there isn't anything the be sorry about, Sorry!

Doing the weekly food shop, I walk around pushing the trolley, just one of many miserable guys who give each other a little nod knowing we are all on the same boat.

Watch as she has a heart attack at the price at the till.

Wait for her to say "you don't need to come next time it costs too much". Job done [Big grin.png]
