Your link doesn't work.

What's something small that really annoys me? When my links don't work.

(I'll attempt to fix it.)

Rikkitic:

I try (admittedly don't always succeed) to think for the other drivers because you never know what their capabilities are and I don't like getting hit anywhere. Try to anticipate potential situations up ahead and give the driver behind lots of warnings by gradually slowing and pumping the brake lights if necessary. Keep an eye on the mirror and if they don't slow down look for an escape route. I have known people who follow the rules but don't feel responsibility for the mistakes of others. I would rather be safe than right. I am happy to do whatever it takes to avoid an accident. If that means giving way to an idiot, I don't have a problem with it.

 

The friken stupid bed advert where they say to the guy we have been expecting you then take him through all that security to a room that just has a bed in it then they say to him is there anything else and he says no. WHAT THE HELL don't you need sheets and a blanket and perhaps a bloody pillow grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Programmes on the freeview guide that are repeats and it's not indicated as such. Happens a lot.

Sky programes that are repeats and its not shown in guide...

Annoying and I am paying for them to repeat.

The breathless, high-pitched, over-excited, exclamatory tone of voice that invariably infects commercials in this country. Partly for this reason I try to avoid commercials as much as possible but some leak through. Why the devil can't people just talk about soap or soup or furniture or whatever without making it sound like they are in the throes of sexual satisfaction? This is starting to really annoy me.

Reminder emails about a limited offer:

• Hurry, offer ends soon
• Offer ends tomorrow
• Offer ends midnight
• Offer extended

The above were all from Carbonite. 

When I see offer extended I assume they have not had a good take up of the offer.

Harvey Norman have gotta be one of the worst with this. I always mute their ads.

A proliferation of road signs in the name of safety. Example: around the corner from where I live there's a level railway crossing with bells and barrier arms. On top of those there are also signs placed maybe 50 metres back warning of the crossing. Recently, new signs have appeared on both sides of the crossing by the footpath also warning of the crossing. These are about two metres away from the tracks I guess.

Also on this same stretch of road are a couple of new signs warning of a pedestrian crossing off a side street that's in front of a primary school.

Safety is all good, but it just seems that there so many signs on that stretch of road now. Probably mandated by Health and safety laws.

Behodar: Put too many signs in and people will automatically tune them out...

Roundabout ones on the island in the center really annoy me because they block the view of indicators of oncoming cars.

Recently i have been Dropping of my wife to Auckland Airport as her car is getting repaired,

Motorway 20B has only 1 lane on each side and the speed limit is 100.

Still people go on speed of 60-80 and this annoys me a lot.
