- People who walk slow in front of me
- People who smell
- People who have their kid crying in public and do absolutely nothing to shut them up
- People who sit talking loud on their phone making calls the whole train or bus journey. You can move that thing away from your ear for more than 60 seconds, yknow, you won't die, I promise.
- "Jafaican" English or "Multicultural London English". I know that stupid accent is fake, nobody spoke like that before it suddenly became fashionable in circa 2010.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
