The title of the thread is "TINY LITTLE things that cause you irrational rage," not "Enormous global issues which..." Even a crap teacher (so impressed that you've trawled back to find a throwaway self-deprecating comment, 10/10 for assiduity though not so much for having a life) could maybe teach you a little reading comprehension.

Walking along the street you notice that a couple of girls look at you and you think "hey, I may be getting old but I've still got it", then a couple of blokes look at you too, but it's 2016 blokes can think you're OK too...... and then you remember you've got a T-shirt on with a stupid slogan and people are reading it....

[Elphinstone's Army]

wearing a t shirt with a stupid slogan does not preclude either category thinking that you've still got it

Seeing people in company or public accessed vehicles smoking whilst they are driving (which is also legislated against for passive smoking reasons)

this afternoon I saw a driving instructor smoking, hopefully the air cleared before the next pupil got in

Oh dear, you must have been out of your job for such a long time now that youre reading and comprehension skills have gone as you certainly have not understood.

I should have got it earlier - your name, harris - obviously must refer to Harris Academies ergo your lack of basic skills. I'll explain. 1st world probs are trivial. I posted on this thread that they are. You decided to have a dig and call my comment petty etc. In order to help you understand, I put the trivial comments I originally referred to in context of major issues to try and help you see. But alas you failed again. 0/0 ex academy. Tsk.

I do love seeing very stupid people trying to be clever and funny, excellent. As Dr.Johnson had occasion to remark in a different context, "like a dog's walking on its hind legs, it is not done well, but one is surprised to see it done at all."

Rendel Harris is my real name, unlike certain cowardly, bullying, inadequate people (you) I do not require an alias behind which to hide as I don't say anything on internet forums to which I would be ashamed to admit - much of what you say on here is either so stupid, aggressive or downright offensive I'm not surprised you require a nom de plume. I have never taught at a Harris academy so, if I may put it rather less elegantly than the good doctor, your attempted highly laboured joke falls on its arse.

You're has an apostrophe in it, by the way, I'll give you that one for free.

[ruffers]

Ironic that someone called Grok doesn't quite get it.

Whats the plural for anus, Mr Harris Academy? :-)

Oh dear. Well down to your usual standard. Unpleasant and clever can often pass muster, as can kind but stupid. But stupid and unpleasant doesn't really leave much going for you, poor thing.

[TheArtfulDogger]

Posters who pitch up in the middle of a conversation, take a stand (right or wrong) then flames those who question his point of view claiming bullying tactics are being used because people disagree with him and telling them they have nothing of value to add...

Well welcome to a discussion forum where all views are valid and allowed (maybe not correct or agreed with)

Yes Pop / Fazer I am directing this directly at you 😈

[LadyNorwood]

Not sure if this is irrational but..... People who read newspapers and/or magazines in shops, then put them back - the publications are there to be bought, it's not a library.....

I've been posting a mixture of advice, serious views and the odd facetious comment. Unlike a previous chat room I was on I've tried not to get embroilded in the politics. If I take the piss out of the middle classes then I am being (at least in part) self deprecting. I know a couple OF you have trolled me at times but I wouldn't remember the names off the top of my head. I also spot others who seem to be trolling or just plain unpleasant.

The only one I would name is Grok, due to some particularly rubbish attempt at humour on my "What to buy for a 50th birthday" thread. Pehaps he or she may take a look at themselves (as I do to when perhaps my posts are mistinterpretted).

Right, now I have the moral highground I can sleep nicely and smuggly/self satisfied tonight.

Some studies have shown that your dominant hand works faster than the other, so if you're right handed it may well be that with the O under your right hand and the R under your left the right has just got ahead of the rhythm. I do exactly the same!

How long it takes to sort payment in some restaurants, from saying you want to pay to the point where you can walk.

It's not a Nice To Have, it's a fecking Must Have.

I've had the food, so let me go, the transaction is over dude.

[DulwichFox]

I have to agree with K.K.

Waiting to pay after a meal when all you want to do is Pay.. get out and get to the Pub.
