Just a quick survey to see what annoys people the most. I have suggested a few but i'm sure there are plenty more and it'll vary between the occupations of posters.
(Waddya means whats a 'tuber'? It's some one who rides the tube! Just like some one who debates maths is a mathsdebater. Or maybe not!)

Hmmm, so many of those boxes I need to tick, and only have one vote!
I'll have a think which is the most annoying!

A thing that used to annoy me when I was Guard were "Honkers" Guys (and sometimes gals) who suddenly blow their nose like the trumpets of Jericho. I once had just poured myself a mug of tea from the can on leaving Victoria when a geezer behind me did an impression of a foghorn. Made me jump and drop my tea! Rotten b*stard.

My vote goes to People who can't grasp minding the doors.
The ones who hold a door open for their mates when all the other doors are closed and the Train is ready to depart really annoys me.

Even worse is when passengers hold doors open and these people aren't even on the platform.....in fact running through the cross-passages! More than likely when another train is right behind that one! |

In fact, this is not such an 'annoying habt' but a fellow tuber' did do it and it did make me feel a bit sick. I was on a WB District about 2 years ago around about the Plaistow area and an Indian chap sat opposite me eating a bag of KFC french fries with tomato sauce on. As he was eating them he dropped one - complete with sauce on it - on the seat just next to him. He picked it up, I thought he was going to throw it on the floor - HE ATE IT!! That is soooooo disgusting. The amount of people that use those seats and the abuse that drunks and the like do to them as well. Urrgghhh.

You see all sorts of funny and disgusting stuff up this end, people using Trains as Toliets, Playgrounds, Bedrooms (I'm not going to say what for because of the younger members on this forum) and so on. |

Bedrooms (I'm not going to say what for because of the younger members on this forum) and so on. I think it's pretty self-explanatary! Without going too much off topic, who is the youngest member? |
