No, legally biscuits. So they have a lower tax rate as they not luxury items. |

They're legally cakes. They went to court and had a previous decision overturned. |

"The sounds of sloshing wine or ice cubes in glasses on radio adverts. Gives me the heebie jeebies, big time  "
As in ice cubes hitting the side of the glass? People laughing so carefree in the background? |

It's the sound of the "ice cubes" and the sloshing of liquid. I don't mind carefree laughter. I cannot stand the liquid noises though |

"People who stack the plates up in restaurants and/or pass them to the waiting staff "
I’m guilty of this and I know I shouldn’t do it but I can’t help it. |

I absolutely hate it when I see someone chewing a mouthful and with the food still spinning around in their in their gobs like a washing machine, take a drink and continue chewing the same, now drenched and presumably taste abated food.
I don’t know why it bothers me so. But it bloody well does. |

I’m m not the only one. I don’t know why I do it but I can’t seem to help myself. I’ve been told off for it as well by a waitress |

What's wrong with that?"
Waiters/waitresses hate it. I don’t know the reason why. Maybe they have a certain way to stack it. |

I can't swallow dry food. I had surgery on my oesophageal sphincter and dry food gets stuck in traffic entrance to my stomach. It hurts. A lot. I once had to go to A&E to have a bagel extricated from the sphincter. Some of us have special needs  |

Erm, something that is driving me mad at the moment are the mobile phone zombies who can't walk down the street without staring at their phone and even when they are not staring at it they are holding it in a position as if they are looking at it I've made the decision now to keep walking and wait for them to crash in to me! Fucking zombies!! |

I walk frequently with blind people and it's infuriating how many people that will not pay attention to others, who they will harm by their lack of care and attention. It's not exclusively people on devices though |

"People who leave plug sockets on and remove the plug. Really pisses me off. "
People who switch my shit off when it's plugged in and clearly doing something like charging my f@ck1ng phone - really boils my p!55. Fortunately I divorced the woman and her mother went with her.  |

Yes! No one ever seems to get why that bothers me.surely no one does that...what if the angry pixies get out?  "
Okay so how do you deal with sockets that have no switches on them? Flick the main circuit breaker?
You do know that the electricity can't sneak out just cos the switch is left on right?
You could argue that the appliance left plugged in is still being fed charge but how many people switch their WiFi off every night? That's right no one and that bad boy is using more juice than every standby item in your house combined  |

Not sure who is responsible but one of my housemates think it’s acceptable to put small plates on top of big plates when he’s washed up and puts the plates away.
HELLO..?!?!
Tidy cupboards, tidy mind..lol |

Er????
Small plates should be stacked on big plates - the other way around is just inviting gravity to mess with your day |

When you have a really full backpack that just WILL NOT STAY ON YOUR SHOULDERS!! When it slips down into your elbow and you cant just shrug it back up makes me want to set fire to everything in a 10 mile radius! |

i know, I’m talking about the smaller ones that don’t have that little chest strap…murderous."
Ah even my 25l rucksack has one. They have the same effect on women as seat belts BTW, actually no better because the breasts are trapped on both sides - again thank me later |

Women at the checkout can be stood 5 min waiting for the person in front.
But when it's time to pay they then start to look for there card or cash from the bottom of their handbag why can't they get the fucker while waiting |
