Handicapped people who aren't all that compromised taking a handicapped space in an almost empty parking lot. Why not take one of the open spaces 4-5 spots away and keep the handicapped spaces open for those that truly need them?

And farming jokes I guess.

Also, people who use 'parent and child' bays without having a child with them.

Not to jump all over this, but there is this retiree who works in my local Publix.  He cleans up, puts the mats out every morning, bags groceries, and helps people take their groceries out to the car.  Yet he parks in the disabled spot right next to the store.  It just bugs me.  Maybe even more so, because he sports a New England Patriots plate on the front of his car.

We have spaces over here next to the disabled spots which are reserved for people who have a child in a pushchair with them.. some people abuse this, though.

Our buggies are provided by the store and are also called shopping carts. I have no idea what a pram is...

Do you mean a stroller?

Well, we do speak American here.

One of my peeves is stores that reserve parking for their Superstar team members. I always take the one at Kohls, the way my wife shops there I'm the damn Superstar EVERY month.
Trivial annoyances and so trivial and annoying
Drivers who speed by you just to get in front of you to turn right. This is particularly annoying when there's no cars behind you.
People who initiate meetings and then bail on the meeting.
When I'm putting my cereal away and I can't get the tab to go into the slot of the boxtop.

Come to think of it, I always hate it when I can't get my tab in the slot. But that's an entirely different subject.
Spiced rum. I love rum, but spiced rum is an abomination. Yuck!

Heretic.
[BLEEP] that back into parking spaces especially when there are other cars waiting to pass.  Yeah we all couldn't wait to watch your [BLEEP] back into the parking space as slowly as possible.

[BLEEP] that don't vacate the fast lane when someone is coming up behind them.  I don't care if you're already going over the speed limit, get the hell out of the way.  You're causing traffic.

[BLEEP] that come to a stop on an on ramp with no stop or yield sign and a dedicated lane for you. Baymeadows at 95 North comes to mind. As does the JTB on ramp from 95 North. You don't need to come to a complete stop at either place folks.

I have never understood why anyone wants to back into a parking space.   Maybe they have an expired tag?  Otherwise, it seems like it'd be a lot easier to back out of a parking space than to back into one.
