Wear one if you like but don’t insist others should.Listen I want to dress like a 17th Century Croatian Mercenary and I bloody will. Don’t embarrass me by not joining in.
STW delivers again, I had no idea Croation Mercenaries invented the necktie !!!!
It's not a bad look 😉

There's nothing much I find incomprehensible, different folks different strokes. But why do pedestrians cross the road without looking whith the red man still showing, the traffic stopping from one direction only means its coming from another !!!!@
pedestrians cross the road without looking whith the red man still showing
Am I alone in finding the new Red/green man is on the button box system impossible to use. I appreciate it stops me looking at the traffic lights and using them as opposed to the crossing light, but I hardly notice when they are green these days.
There's a lot I don't get these days, but very little I care about!
Middle lane drivers?
Swans.
You clearly haven’t eaten one
Why no one else found this hysterically funny.
Why people care what others wear, tattoos, hair etc.
Fat middle aged blokes arguing about bicycles.
And why has no one ever got a light anymore when I need to spark up my cancer stick.

Coffee, tastes like burnt arseholes and is addictive as smoking. If you can't look at the likes of CostaBucks opening new shops on every corner and often multiple shops in relatively small towns, in eye sight of each other and think they're not exploiting their customers you must be quite mad.
Bottled Water, I live in Wales, do we really need to take water from France, stuff it into plastic bottles and ship it hundreds of miles here? Nuts.
SUVs in general, 99% of them never go off-road, more than 80% of new ones on sale today were never designed to go off-road. They're pointlessly big on the outside, inefficiently small on the inside and every part of their design is at odds to good car design.
'Sporty' SUVs same at the above, only with a massively over-powered engine, it's pure Golf Club bragging rights. Revolting and tasteless.
Loveisland (obvs) I can't be the only one who sees they're horribly damaged people who should be in counselling, but we're feeding their disorders instead.
Mrs. Browns Boys, I know it's supposedly to be a comedy, but it's somehow not?
Trump and Boris leering more and more to the nasty right, that's pretty easy to comprehend, why instead of being political suicide it's only making them more popular I can't understand. It reminds me of that Michel and Webb sketch when they're in the SS uniforms. Trump is screaming "send her back" and the crowd are joining in, but no one is pausing for a moment, thinking about what they're doing wondering "are we the Baddies?"
Singlespeeds and especially Fixies, To me it's like those people who like hot wax dripped on their 'bits' why do that to yourself, is your life to easy and carefree you want to make your hobby more unpleasant than it needs to be.
People who take up vaping not to quid smoking, because they want to. The sort of thought pattern that says "I'm going to voluntarily get myself addicted to a drug that has no high, so I can see what 'strawberry' steam tastes like. Did they not learn from their parents generation how stupid that is?
STW binaries who grew up lonely still as angry as ever about vaping, dogs, cars, music, sports they don’t like and bikes they don’t ride, but most of all they’re just angry at themselves. 😀
That’s not at all incomprehensible though.
Dracs iPad.

A*rseholes people a*rseholes who leave their engines idling.
Grown men that congregate late at night, outside a wendyball stadium and chant an obscure name. The name often belongs to a young athletic man from South America or Spain. They stand chanting Pedro or Miguel or Jesus or something similar, for hours and hours into the dead of night. These chanting grown men quite often dress up in some highly flammable nylon outfit that they purchased from SportsDirect for about £3.95.
Quite often they do this in front of television camera's and the images of these grown men are beamed throughout the country.
WHY????????
Forgot one.
..people who say "wendyball". Guaranteed tory/gammon/rugby club bore/wearer of red trousers.

Also, utility companies.
They have but one straightforward actual job - read your meter and charge an appropriate amount of money.
Yet are to a man*, utter balls at it.
* "company" didn't read as well.

Never seen any of this. Totally fail to understand why anyone would make this kind of stuff up just to post their fantasy about being being too cool for school
Putting hazard lights on because that makes parking on the pavement ok
People who like/don't like something and think everyone else should like/not like the same things as they do. Why not just enjoy what you like?

Teenagers (actuallly anyone under 40) becoming a member of the Conservative Party (and also the Brexit Party)

People who don't give a toss about the environment and carry on walking around with bottled water (to somehow look cool), also coffee in non recyclable cups.
Developers who continue to build luxury, exclusive 4/5 bed homes on green belt, when we need small affordable homes built on brownfield sites (of which there are plenty).
Dog owners that buy them and stick them either in a handbag or a dog pram.
Smokers. Come on it's been common knowledge for years that its harmful to you and all around you.
People who don't look after themselves, expecting the NHS to fix everything, (because I've paid for it all my life) bad attitude.

Given the evidence of this thread, can I add people who don't know how to use apostrophe's to the list?
shoe laces that come undone, even when tied tightly in a double knot.
User error. Tie the bow in a reef knot instead of a granny knot (ie, tie the bottom knot under the bow wrong-handed) and you won't need a double knot even.
..people who say “wendyball”.
I'll expand this to any "hilarious" term that people persist in using despite it going past its sell-by date several decades ago. "Micro$oft Windoze" for instance, wow, I've never heard that one before, did you come up with it all by yourself? And "Magic Granddad" is rapidly joining it in going from rather amusing originally to painfully and tediously unfunny now.
the guy walking his dogs in the wood like this....
we saw him half hour later still on it!

How arch of you to slip that deliberate error in. You should obviously be asking "may I".
People on the internet arguing about banana skins for 2 days.
What we'll argue about once the banana skins run out.
the Endless Zwift adverts..... do smart trainer manufactures chip in with the cost ?

No you chronic simpleton. The person you asked is employed to get it for you. 😠

One of the few upsides of brexit is that we'll only be able to buy blocks of cheese. It'll make Britain grate again...

Girls who go through what must be a not inconsiderable amount of discomfort and pain to pluck out their eyebrows completely... then draw them straight back on again.
People believing in a flat earth!
It’s not a bad look
Hang on a minute - I think my iCloud account has been hacked.

Thats perfectly comprehensible. In the fortnight before the English school breaks up anyone in Scotland with children vanishes. All your Centreparcs are belong to us.

"Fat Friday"
You've eaten well all week and reward yourself by troughing down pie and chips, undoing your good work. So you spend another 6 days eating well and reward yourself with another pie and chips.
wasps are not pests.
They are vital to nature. They eat all the bad grubs and insect larvae in your lawn, without then we'd be over run. Also they build the most beautiful intricate nests.
If they come bothering you let them be.
So you spend another 6 days eating well and reward yourself with another pie and chips.

Bought it once, tonight ‘this doesn’t taste nice’ read the bag and it seems they spray it with potato starch to stop if clumping and/or going stale. I don’t want to eat that.
Purely because of this……old people. Wittering on about ‘the youth’ and how technology is doing damage since forever.
Wait until you're my age young man.

Oh and retractable dog leads.

There is enough genetic difference between wolves and canis familiars to debunk this. The real picture is much more nuanced, although they can still create hybrids, the latter has not evolved to hunt like a wolf, they have evolved for the most part to scavenge and rely on humans.

Very small difference in genetic makeup can make huge physiological and behavioral alterations - there is only a small genetic difference between a fox that wants to bite your bollocks off and one that is fluffy and cute.

Heavy metal. Grown-ups listening to songs about raping and monsters and whatever other silly things they sing about with the same voice and guitar sounds they always used.
Then there’s Metallica and Soundgarden...
People who wear fleeces, jumpers and/or jackets in hot weather.
And hoodies with the hoods up, and woolly beanies; makes zero sense to me when I’m wearing a tee shirt and shorts!
Why electric cars don’t have that roof and bonnet made from solar panels.
That’s because the solar panels will, after an entire day in full sunshine, give an additional three miles to the range of the car. They basically do not work in that context.

i had this one ready to go from the beginning but kayak beat me to it.
riles me so bad when i hear this, and its getting worse! likewise OMG.
M6 gantry signs is good one too. but what kills me is when ts says "Long Delays between J20 - J22" like im supposed to know where the eff J20 is along 230 miles of motorway!!
also, men with Umbrellas.

golfers ?
Soccer obsession. You know where you can recite every transfer fee paid for every player in the last 20 years.
Obsession with the Royal family.
Golf.
Six Nations. As a foreigner I dont really understand rugby, but neither do most of the british people that seem to watch it. It also always seem to bring up conversations about the NFL, even though they are completely different spors.
Writing Er or Erm at the start of a post.
The amount of clothes my missus owns but does not wear.
& Foals - the band. I just don't get it.
British gas.
The one thing I really struggle to understand on a daily basis and if I stop to ponder it for too long I start to feel very depressed is how a human can inflict physical pain on another human knowing how much, for example it bloody hurts when you do something innocuous like stub your toe. I just don't understand how people can stab, torture and rape etc.
People who park 2 foot from the back of your car......in an half empty trail center car park.....WTF
People who write “should of”;
Editors and proof readers who don’t appear to have edited nor proof read.
Gilets. Warm you torso but you still have cold arms.
Foreigners.
People who use military jargon on bicycle web sites.
that **** who insists on sitting in the alotted seat number on their ticket on an otherwise empty train, even if it means sitting next to me or asking me to move!
The love for Top Gun
Religion, and in particular people that kill in the name of it. Stupid, cruel and utterly pointless.

How is it possible that all the stuff in the universe has always existed in one state or another?*
Ow, my head.
* “God did it” is not a good enough answer.
People who get mardy about “Can I get?” and don’t realise that to get can mean to obtain rather than collect oneself- get over it.
How is it possible that all the stuff in the universe has always existed in one state or another?*
Anyone who goes to the trouble of bagging their dog's poo but then leaves the bagged offering on the side of the path / in a tree. WHY???
And hoodies with the hoods up
Funny how fashions shift, isn't it. These days it's 'gangsta' to try and hide your face, like you could be up to no good any moment now. When I was at school if you wore a hood you'd get picked on for being soft.
Did you snot 'em in the puss for calling you soft when you had your hood up?
Then I hate to say this, but...
Cheese and onion crisps. Cheese is great, onions are great, cheese and onions together are great, cheese and onion crisps are rancid.
People that have queued for an age but are still not ready to order when they're up.
Ludicrously loud and intrusive ring-tones.
Stealth boasting on social media, especially on Facebook - with accompanying photo. Some sort of self deprecating post that surreptitiously draws attention to a career advancement or material acquisition.
Laughter that derives from The Last Leg TV show.
Spitting chewing gum into the urinal.
So, I was like, literally.
The price of fashionable pints of beer in Cardiff.
People that have queued for an age but are still not ready to order when they’re up.
On a related note, people in the queue for security at the airport who get to the front and THEN start rummaging in bags for liquids, gels, electronics, boarding pass. Seriously, WTF were you doing for all that time while waiting?!
It's probably already been said, but:
Sick Bicycles
Rich Energy
Dark roast coffee
The popularity of Donald Trump (in the US)
The popularity of football (only about 1% of a match has any interesting bits)
Rugby (ditto, but you can't even see the ball for 50% of the time)
There are many others.
