WHAT REALLY ANNOYS YOU THAT YOU HAVE NO CONTROL OVER?

One of those minor irritations that really bother me - how the weather forecasters witter on and on and you end up being none the wiser than when they started. Back to the days with a sober looking suited person with a pointer and a map, I say!

With you on that spiritbird, and when you realise just how much is spent on the meteorological people it does not look like value for money

Why don't you ignore them then, rather than letting them annoy you?

Tom.

So many things P me off! Do you want a list?

I agree with Tom though; better to ignore them rather than allow yourself to get annoyed about things you can simply avoid. However, there are certain annoyances which, while I waste enormous amounts of energy fuming about them, also have to be dealt with.

One example is middle-lane-hogs on motorways. These people seem so ignorant, arrogant or petrified that they drive for miles at a relatively slow pace in an "overtaking lane" regardless of there being no vehicles in the inside lane and nothing in front of them. This causes three lanes of following traffic to continually funnel into the outside lane to get past.

The techniques other motorists use are:
Overtaking on the inside.
Tailgating.
Flashing headlights.
Cutting up and swerving in front.
Glaring, shouting, arm waving etc.
All of which are dangerous and seem to have little effect.

I admit to some of these actions myself when needing to get somewhere, while observing the "normal" traffic speed, and encountering one after another of these idiots.

Litter in public places, Grrr
