What gets on your nerves?

For me everyone knows what does annoy me is the incorrect use of brought and bought, but I've recently noticed

"Good condition for age" or "good condition for mileage"

Both annoy me- its either in good condition or not. I suppose being in car sales doesn't help but... What annoys you?

"For Sell" vs "For Sale".

One member does it on here and it winds me up no end

Also any superflous phrase like "first to see will buy etc"

People referring to "Stack systems" as Hi Fi... Many wouldn't know Hi Fi if it slapped them 'round the face! I'll let you know more as I think of them.

For sale adverts when the seller cant be arissed making a decent advert.

Typical Example, although I have exaggerated slightly.
"For sale, a car, its good condition, £995"

Next post.

"What no interest

then *insert threat of breaking it*"

Well break it ya douch!

Cheeky bleeders asking for a valuation, when they are a blue and what they are doing is avoiding rules

Wood dashboards in ZT's

If only this was for sale last week

If this wasn't so far away

If I hadn't just bought my babysitter a rabbit I'd buy that.

I wish I had a spare 3k

Edit.......when you go into car showrooms and the guy/girl trying to sell you a vehicle is wearing a £500 suit £1000 shoes and has a £600 pen, I can't help but think I'm paying for that lol
