This particular one doesn't appear to recognise etymological boundaries - or any other kind, actually

Another supermarket one, told to me by my mate in pub the other night.
He'd gone up to the local supermarket with his GF and saw a huge Merc parked across about 2.5 of those Parent & Child spaces right near the entrance ie in the opposite direction to the lined markings. He went in the store and mentioned it to Customer Services, who said that others had already complained and a tannoy had been put out quoting the reg and asking for the owner to move the car.
He said he laughed as the owner finally came out with her shopping and went to her car. He said, to be fair, the woman did have her daughter with her. Said daughter was about 19, and looked like "one of those fake trollops from TV shows like that Essex thing, all fake tan, lashes and nails". The mother was the same.

People who deposit their used gum on the pavement. It's harmless, they sell it next to the sweets, so swallow it! If you can't bear to do that, either give up the habit or follow the disposal instructions on the packaging. I hate those people. When I get elected, I'll execute every fother-mucking last one of them (to borrow from Pulp Fiction and to cross threads!)
Those who deposit said gum on train seats will of course also be executed. Just much more slowly and painfully.

I would just ban it. If that drives it underground and results in a subculture of gum pushers and addicts, I can be happy with that.

Modern tellies and their crappy remote controls. My mum bought our first remote control TV in about 1982. It was great. You could change channel from the comfort of your armchair. You pressed a button and the channel changed INSTANTLY.
How come on my brand new diginal, flat screen, HD TV etc etc I press the button and there is a two second delay. You press number '1' and nothing appears to happen, so you press it again, wait, press it again, wait, press '1' again and then you get a message saying "Channel 1111 does not exist"!
Also if the other half is wathing the same channel in the next room, why is their a time delay between the two tellies? AAAAHHH!
