Supermarket checkout signage stating: Eight Items Or Less
With the checkout assistant sat there with no customers so you try to go through with a few over the eight and you get "sorry sir eight items or less only through this checkout".

I don't have a problem with that, sometimes i go to the supermarket & purchase just a few items, but sometimes i wonder is when you buy four cans of lager as a four pack is that one item or four.

And apologies, I should've clarified, my ire is re grammar - ie, it should be 'fewer' not 'less'. (Props to the honourable exception - Waitrose.) 
Petrol was originally a registered trade name for a nit removal solvent. So when motor cars were invented and people started using the same solvent as a fuel, the name stuck.
What do you want us to call it? Motor spirit?
Most annoying thing at the moment is the slowness of this site.

Probably why the yanks call it gas.
...the ignorant idiot tailgating me just now 
overuse of the word controversial and controversy In what seems every news item.
I don't mind people getting their laptop or iPad out to watch a film on the train. But please - wear some headphones!!

When people say they will hoover up, when in fact they do not own a hoover, hoover is a brand name belonging to hoover nothing else, what they really mean is that they will vacuum up.
