    oh and they are usually overtaking at speed, near out of control and cut back in in the tightest of spaces.
    And I have a theory about black cars, BMWs and SUVs. The combo is 97.45% annoying.

    Overtakers when you are doing the speed limit then they settle in and drive slower than the speed you were driving..

    HATIEST!!!!

    Wrong.
    Fuckers that pull out in front of you then go slow get that moniker.

    ooooohhhh i haaaate those motherfuckers.

    Alright fluffybunny, you actually had to dive and make me brake, you're obviously in a wild hungry, then get a fucking move on

    the driving ones could go forever

    Second hand BMW 3 series owners.

    People who accelerate on straight stretches after crawling along windy bits.

    People who congregate to talk on thoroughfares or bottlenecks.

    Asian drivers.

    Asian pedestrians who have no spacial awareness

    Anyone who says they’re an amazing driver. None of them are.

    @nostrildamus usually tailgating you the whole time they are behind too..

    worst is the fluffybunny that does that, then turns off 10 sec after he gets past you.

    NZ drivers are largely aggressive, impatient and drive too fast, and pretty much shit too

    That's some quality racial stereotyping there

    I was told by an aviation med that lack of peripheral vision made it harder to get a decent landing for some ethnic groups. Which may, or may not, be relevant. You decide.

    None of the above, none of it !!!!!! , annoys me more that bad boring bland anonymous rugby jerseys.

    Can you name a team created post 1990 which still has the same kit they started with?

    (I was actually thinking this while watching Heartland Rugby and noticing that Horowhenua and Mid-Canterbury both have kits they changed in the 1990s, but both were 1980s era designs, unique(ish) and they actually stuck with them, and they look good).

    Whereas ... try to pick an Ospreys, Force, Newcastle Falcons, Exeter, Sale, Kings, Blues kit out of a criminal lineup.

    Meetings to redefine the company's purpose......

    Actually - meetings full stop.

    Especially ones that start at 11:30 p.m. and go for 2 hours.

    but those usually involve alcohol and more often run overtime...

    Not in my case. Global videoconferences. Generally an excuse for people who aren't really that busy to demonstrate how vitally important they are to the success of the organisation i.e. not at all....

    Just that would have done.

    Even in pubs they are annoying (as you well know).

    Walking past people queuing with chairs outside a shop for a new phone. I just want to individually kick each one.

    Edit. For being sheep. Not for being in the way.
