I don't have time to do a long list, but here's my description of the thing i hate the most, people on buses. Not everyone, just most of them, here's why:
You get all those "old dears" who know the fare is 80p cause they've been riding the same bus for the last 10 years. They for some reason don't count the money before getting on the bus and finally once it's all counted the put the money in and demand your seat. They take about 30 seconds to pay a fare they could have counted earlier!
People on mobiles when they ride the bus have a nasty habit of cracking bad jokes and laughing VERY loudly. Not to bad when it's one, but when it's 6 at a time it gets so frustrating
There's to many bus stops to, the bus drives for 30 seconds, gets caught up in traffic for a mnute or so and then straught after stops to pick more people up.
Then you get the strange kids dressed from head to toe in black that look out the window reflectivly and get aggressive when you have to sit next to them.
Little children are the worst of all, they shout, scream and cry on the bus for no reason. And when you're listening to your discman or whatever they just glance at you for ages. You can't do anything about them either or their parents just get mad at you.
Finally, the chavvie kids that sit at the back of the bus are SO annoying to. They chant, they insult people, they deal drugs and they make loads of noise.
I hate bus jounreys for all the above reasons.
Things that really annoy you?

David Smith: pure empathy after reading your anti-bus rant. Pure empathy.
I've got one. CDs (usually from the eighties, when nobody knew better) that have COMPACT PRICE or DOUBLE LP SET ON ONE SPECIALLY PRICED CD printed ALL OVER THE COVER, thus obliterating the designers' original intentions... Damn them. Damn them all to hell.

I hope you never have kids, David. It WILL happen to you, if you do. TRUST me. It's pretty embarrassing when you're in the grocery store, and your kid suddenly decides to throw themselves down on the ground, and start kicking and screaming and pitching a fit. You get annoyed and definitely humiliated, but upon glancing at your watch, realize it's an hour past their nap time, and can't really get mad. Hey, it's just kids, man.David Smith wrote: Little children are the worst of all, they shout, scream and cry on the bus for no reason.

I'm sure as i get older i begin to love the sounds of a kid screaming as he gobs on the bus, i'm sure i can stand the sound of them crying when their mum just doesn't gove them the attention they obviously want. I would have nothing against kids, as long as they're mine ad not somebody elses.
