Some pet peeves
People who push buggies onto London buses and call me an ignorant bastard just cause I refused to move until they say "excuse me please".

Southwark Council. What a bunch of incompetant twats.

Oh, and people who voted for Boris Johnson. If he wins the London Mayor elections then London is doomed, doooooomed I tells ya. The guy is a bumbling idiot.

oh, and people who constantly think I'm Irish. I'm SCOTTISH ok. Not blinking Irish (although the Irish are nice people). You know, Scotland...that country North of the British Isles. Geez. Southerners :rolleyes:

edit: oh yeah, and people who can't work out how to use the self-checkout tills at Sainsburys...come ON...how difficult can it be. Seen someone yesterday hitting the 'Insert Card' message on the screen..what an idiot.

I don't think us Jocks sound anything like the Paddies. I remember when I moved 'down sarf' to Kent some bloke asked me once 'What part of Ireland are you from' I replied 'Glasgow.'

Bloke scowled at me and said 'You taking the Piss' I replied 'No - I thought you were.' Unfortunately for him, his attitude put me into slow mode while processing his credit card transaction and he missed his train as a result, Served him right. I was glad that I was behind security glass though, as he wandered around menacingly till the next train an hour later.
