I can certainly agree with the idiots too engrossed on their phones to actually look where they are going. There was some stupid young girl in the paper who got hit by a car when not looking whilst crossing the road as on her phone. She nearly died. How stupid is that. I have seen many such idiots.

No sympathies if they get themselves killed. If someone else is injured because of their stupidity they should be charged. Youngsters today - it's as if common sense flew out the window.

Mobile phones are my biggest bugbear. Especially when I'm in a conversation with someone and their phone rings and they start talking to the person on the phone!! Such rudeness. I usually just walk away when that happens.
Drunkeness on the streets is also something I hate. Although it did happen occasionally when I was young, it wasn't as common as it is now.
Begging. I hate it when they are pushy with it. I support causes like the Salvation Army and other organisations which help the homeless and I would always offer them food and drink, but rarely will I give cash.
Uncaring shop assistants. I realise that it might not be the best job in the world, but a welcoming smile costs nothing. Usually the older shop assistants are friendly and helpful, but the bored, couldn't care less attitude of many of the younger ones leaves me simmering.
