I hate it when people bastardise the English language whilst trying to appear edumacated. For instance there is a council erosion sign in the dunes at Agnes Water referring to Dunal rehabilitation.
What the fark is wrong with dune rehabilitation? Why does it have to be flowered up ffs!
Same thing with trialling. What the fark is trialling. It is a made word which has become a part of the language when in actual fact it means nothing. The word is trying. When you try something you perform a trial. That is why when a person is in the dock in court he is being tried, not trialled. Next thing you know people will be talking about triallding something.
And when you hear people talking and every second word is "like". What is that?
It's like they have to keep talking or their audience will take the floor so they have this word which they can insert ad nauseam like you know what I mean?
I Hate how every windsurfing video starts with some schmuck driving in his car, I want to watch a WS video not a road trip video WTF!!!???
Those under skin zits/pimples/spots that never come to a head, and make you squeeze your face in vain, scarring it for life
Fat people in lycra.
What the hell is going through their minds when they make the decision to dress that morning??
Racist pricks.
Go to a third world and you meet some really nice people living tough lives, then come back here and see bogan racist pricks (who procreate without thinking) mooching of a system...... Let's trade them.
I don't slow down anticipating an orange. Just at certain intersections at certain times I like to give myself more time to check that the traffic has stopped at the red. Especially late at night or a 'tight' intersection that has less than ideal visibility of the intersecting road.
People that run reds would be one of my pet hates. I recon it is happening more and more often too. See it nearly everyday

Have been buying Iron Sulphate, trying to improve the soil/sand in the garden (WA) at $10 for 500g. Thinking there's gotta be a better way, I do a bit of research and discover the stuff is a by product of steel manufacturing (pickling in sulphuric acid before coating) and they almost give the stuff away at agricultural type outlets. Just bought a 25kg bag for $16:00. Nice profit margin Bunnings.....
