Continuity announcers who speak over closing credits or credits that are cut short at the end of a film or program.

Slow drivers
Slow drivers who drive near the middle of the road, usually with their rear fog lights on also.
Bad or slow service in restaurants or shops
Matt Cooper's voice - totally unsuited for radio

Most Galway Bay FM newscasters - must they sound like transition year students?

I endorse Johnneycool's choice. A roof-mounted bazooka is my fantasy in that case.

That and the bird who does the business news on RTE radio. There is no such accent as that and no other sound made by man, beast or machine has ever caused my toes to cramp ever before.

[Croí na hÉireann]

Amount of reality shows on de telly
Soaps
Budweiser ad
People that have to be flashed in the fast lane to pull over and then pull right back out after you. IT'S A FUCKIN OVERTAKING LANE!!!

When you talk about Northern politics and people reply with "its all in the past forget about it"...no its not.  Normally used by people who know they are beaten in a debate/argument.
People who say American Football is shite, no its not.  Learn the rules, watch a game, you might just enjoy it.
People who seem to think just because your from the south it means your opinions on the north dont count.  Many people say this especially if your opinions are republican minded.  Either debate my believes or f**k off and stop making up excuses.
Some GAA people who have no time for anyone whos not invlved in the GAA.  Lads sport is sport, it dosent make you any more Irish or more important if you play hurling/football over soccer or no sport at all..
People who tell me music by the likes of the Wolfe Tones, other similar bands is shite.  I dont know but I'd rather listen to that than listen to Britney spears singing about sex or some other band sing about drugs or how rich and great they are.
Broadband coverage.  Its 2006, and I cant get broadband in my village.
Some soccer fans who  view GAA as sports followed by savages etc.
Newspapers in this country.  Not one of them worth reading.
People who think everyone who does up their car or listens to dance music is either a boyracer/chav.  Well lads, you couldnt be more wrong.
Most new films that are made.  Normally include a stupid storyline or poor logic.  Is it too much to ask for a few new films that might actually have to make me stop and think for a second other than 90% of films nowdays which are just braincandy films.
And finally my mate (whos laptop I'm currently using) who changed on the theme on the laptop which means I now have to highlight what I type to actually see what I'm writing.  Thats my excuse for any spelling mistakes/bad grammer.

Anyone who works on a building site will know this one

I've this thing against dicks pissing, not washing their hands and then touching the door handle I have to touch! 

I also hate Irish television stealing shows and ideas for shows of the english stations and sitting on the phone for a half hour waiting to speak to a human being and finding the human being can barely speak english!
