What really gets your goat?

[JockStalk]

Undertaking on the Motorway.

Folk that lane block

 

[Dunwaters]

If someone is in the correct lane nobody should be able to undertake them though
I remember one of the questions on my test nearly 40yrs ago was "if your doing 70mph on a motorway, which lane should you be in"
Cheers Jimmy.

I was taught that you should always use the inner lane except when overtaking.

You would also have passed matey

 

[willie_gunn]

Would have been better if you said "left-hand lane", as that's what's in the Highway Code

 

[Sika98k]

People driving slower than I want to go hogging the outer lane

This seems to be a National problem.

Because I am now officially a grumpy old git (according to the wife) just about everything gets my goat. As well as most of the things already mentioned one particular thing that really gets my goat is all of these TV presenters that feel they have to either act camp or make it look like they batting for the other side to get any sort of recognition.

Soooo, I am really glad you asked that question. Soooo let me pick the low-hanging fruit. Soooo all things considered and in the fullness of time perhaps but then maybe not. Soooo, ah yes, twonks who start every sentence with Soooo. Oh and of course don’t answer the question you have just asked, soooo politicians really……

[Foxyboy43]

Yea like, jus wot I was finkin, innit

 

[Lever357]

"Experts" on TV/radio being interviewed who think they have to start every reply with....."So........"

People asking which way to store shotguns in a cabinet and the number of people who store them barrels down so the oil doesn't run into the stock!!! It's a gun, not a car, if you're putting so much oil in that it runs down into the stock then you're using too much oil!!! Wipe on, wipe off I was told.

The youth of today on Facebook who think does is spelt dose and etc is ect!!

Folk that lane block

People who overtake at a snail's pace because they've got their cruise control on, and sit alongside you boxing you in just as a load of traffic is merging from a slip road.
It's blinkered inattention. People generally who drive along motorways in a trance or chattering to passengers utterly oblivious to what's going on around them are plain dangerous.

I don't think there's anything wrong with sitting in the second lane, rather than continually darting in and out to overtake lorries, provided you're checking your mirrors all the time and watching what's going on around you so you never box anyone in or get in someone's way.

 

[Ade8mm]

Verbosity

eg.

"Anytime soon" instead of "soon"

"Right now" instead of "now"

"Thank you sooo much" instead of "thank you"

There are plenty of others.

 

[JTO]

TV 'experts' who have never left academia.

 

[Klenchblaize]

Yes, that's a good one!
"Integral" is another irritating word, as in gardening catalogues that advertise stuff like "watering can with integral spout". wtf?l

Ooo , there's one... the word "Tactical" used to describe every item in an effort to give it a military feel, like "Tactical trousers", "Tactical camp stove" and "Tactical cotton wool balls".

Please see a Tactical cat:
