Choosedays Tantrum

The damn floating advert thingys on webpages that don't do away for what seems like ages. Unless you look for the microscopic size`close x` tab.

Eye Tee Vee and Sky Spurts you should be ashamed at ruining my daily scan of the football news pages.



Oh, and feel free to add your cringeworthy stuff to the thread peeps.

background music on websites!!
Drives me bloody crackers
I always have music playing on my lappy while I work..it's very annoying when someone else's choice of music starts playing over the top and I have to frantically search for the "mute" button on the webpage!

Oh..and those silly floaty advert pop ups thingies (haha...I'm so eloquent this morning!) you're on about....msn has some of those at the bottom of the userlist sometimes..they're bloody annoying too!

animated gifs/flash with smiley faces in them that say 'helooooo' in the most condescending manner possible.

in fact, animated gifs, full stop.

[gabrielcrowe]

people who write 'blank' on a blank disk.

[gabrielcrowe]

programmers, that in their infinite wisdom, think that a toothbrush, red van or even a house, should go on a button control, that makes an event trigger.

a complete waste of the gui metaphor.
