Carpathius Nov 2017 9:28am, 16 Nov 2017 12,674 posts	Quote Pin Carpathius People not clearing up after their dogs and leaving shit all over the pavement. People thinking the bit of pavement between their house and the dropped kerb (curb?) is an extension of their driveway. People (lots of them) cycling on the very narrow pavenent when there's a perfectly good, wide cycle lane two feet away on the very wide, straight road. Getting home after a 12.5hr night shift and a 90 minute walk home to find the kids have not washed up, loaded the dishwasher or tidied up the kitchen despite that being the only fucking job they have in the house. Also nobody having fed the chickens. Allowing myself to get so annoyed at the above that I'm going to find it hard to sleep. Having to be back at work in 9 hours.
