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.

Ha, ha - sounds like one of those days. Treat yourself, it may make you feel a bit better. About to go to the hairdresser myself so that should cheer me up. Love that fresh cut feel.

grrrrrrrrr = people who don't acknowledge that you let them by

grrrrrrrrr = when cars park on both sides of the road to pick their kids up from school, let them get some exercise and ruddy walk

grrrrrrrrr = vulgar women

grrrrrrrrr - when someone lets the door go knowing you are just about to walk through the same door, i could go on but I don't want my blood pressure to go up any higher than it is already
