Things you'd like gone

[Mic09]

We have the things that piss you off thread, but there are some things that aren't just annoying, you'd like to see them gone or banned (even if it's not practical or legal to do).

I'll go first:

People driving in the right hand lane for no apparent reason. I would treat it as a driving offence, 3 strikes and your licence is gone. 

I would also like to see a ban on juice fruits shitty plastic drinks for kids. Why do we think as a society giving a child a fruity crappy full of chemicals pretending-to-be-fruit-shoot thing as a good hydration source?
Give those little developing bodies water or a glass of real juice, not the aspartame filled crap.

Instagram & Tik Tok  "influencers" 

youngsters should grow up aspiring to be more than someone making money for wearing a skimpy bikini and having god awful lip fillers and hideous eyebrows

People

Cancel culture.

[mjmooney]

Unsolicited advertising. 

[rjw63]

Motorway roadworks that go on for months or years. Slowing everyone down and making everyone irritable.

Just close the **** down, put in a diversion, get it done quicker.

Also small heath alliance, a pointless existence.

[GarethRDR]

Subscription payment models for everything, and the locking of features behind them.

Microtransactions.

FPTP.

Just bad people really. 

There's loads of lovely, decent people who'll help you out if you ever needed. 

But there's a very vocal minority who are greedy on the basis of creating friction/drama/hate etc. 

Just get rid of them and I'm good to go. 

I include monetising rage-bait in that, because it makes normal people do shitty things, because its "easier" than doing anything which provides value.

Booking fees (and ticket protection fees) when purchasing tickets, especially e-tickets!

They say things like

”they’re all the same”

and

”it would be worse if the other lot get in”

[KentVillan]

Spam / scam calls from overseas spoofing UK numbers, just so annoying even if you don’t get caught out by them. There must be a way of solving it

You'd be erasing more of the population than Thanos did

Shrinkflation. It's getting absurd at this point.

[osmark86]

Fascists.

[Mandy Lifeboats]

That kid on the adverts that keeps fetching dirty water for his family to drink. 

Is he completely stupid?

I had some waggon wheels earlier and I just couldn’t believe how small they’re getting.

But that’s because I was eating them.
