"I went out yesterday, right? And I saw Dave and Julie, right?" etc...

Bad table manners (they really get to me!), Line Dancing (cringeworthy!), Cats , moody people (I hate when you feel like your treading on egg shells trying to pussy foot around them) pessimists, boring people who have no sense of adventure.

Speaking of which...people who go around spouting TV catchphrases as a substitute for actual humour. Especially when they believe they just do the *best* David Brent impression...
People whose entire conversation consists of telling you about a show they saw on TV last night. In. Excruciating. Detail.

(a Turkish shave involves burning ear and nose hair out by waving a huge flame under nose/ears(careful to cover the rest of face with hand though!) so you could try that?)

I often offer to pluck Wulfric's extraneous eye brows, grey hairs and things, but for some unknown reason he seems to object to this. I think he thinks it's a girl thing!

People who say "Cheer up, it may never happen!". The only reply to this is to stare at them, wide-eyed and baleful, for a few seconds, then growl: "It just has."
People who think that seniority is the winning ace in any argument.
Overly servile people, or crawlers.
