People (sorry it usually women) who get their trolley at the supermarket, then go through the door and STOP about 2 feet inside, while they check their handbag/shopping list/hair/shoes/all the pretty things which are displayed. Thus stopping anyone else from entering the store.

While we are on it, what happens to women when they go shopping, they turn from normal rational human beings (insert comment here) into a sort of zombie who wanders round with a vacant expression repeating the mantra "pretty things, pretty things, pretty things" occasionally abandoning their trolley in the middle of the aisle to go and stare at some shiny wrappings.

To give you an idea of what I'm on about, imagine a huge shop with beautiful naked women on every shelf, then get a load of blokes with trolleys and watch them walk about. Trolleys everywhere, blokes staring open mouthed, etc. Now just take notice the next time you go shopping and tell me if the women shopping haven't got the same expression as those blokes in the nuddy woman superstore.

And in addition, just Women, snakes with tits the lot of them. They're just not wired up right.

 Oops, that'll upset a few people :eek Not saying you're wrong, just saying it'll upset a few people. But I don't like to get involved, so I'll mind my own business  :)

I suppose you're right, that last one was a bit harsh, not all of 'em are snakes with tits, just the ones that obviously are.

On the subject of women....
Women who lose their daughter's swim suit and tell you at 11.00 the night before said daughter's lesson, and when you offer to help look tells you not to bother because she's looked everywhere, and then runs off the list of exactly where you needn't bother looking, but when you look in the very first place she said not to bother looking and find the swim suit (behind the radiator in the living room FYI), she gives you an almighty bollocking like it's your fault she lost it in the first fucking place.
Broken, bruised, forgotten, sore,
too fucked up to care any more.

On the shopping trolley issue when people leave it in the middle of the isle and go off looking, I like to pop something random off the shelf into their trolley, or move it around the corner to teach them a lesson.   
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.

I'm pleased I'm not the only one. When people in front don't put dividers on the checkout conveyor I place a high value gift card in their goods before putting our lot ready for scanning....
is it clean enough?

There thing s ding that, its you who has to wait whilst the till person has to faff about cancelling it.

Again on supermarkets - people who decide they now dont want an item half way around and just chuck it where they are so you find a chicken ontop of a packet of cornflakes

automated telephone messages which say "you have been called by a person from your local council" and when you try to phone them back on the number you get the same message---that fucks me right off.
