The world would be a better place without….

Some things really get to me. Here is a list of a few of the things that grind me the wrong way, I hope you’ll agree the world would be better without:

• The SABC – If we had to vote on the most inadequate organisation in the country it would be a toss up between Cope and the SABC. The SABC irritates me the most because I’m forced to pay an annual TV licence for their inefficiencies (and the suspended CEO’s salary).
• Non-stop music power 30 minutes – Tune into a 30 minute music marathon and count the number of times they stop the “non-stop music marathon”. How are the morons at radio stations (94.7 specifically) not aware that stopping the music to announce that you are listening to a non-stop music marathon is actually stopping the music…morons.
• Parking lot designers – If there was a button I could hit that eliminated all the people who currently design shopping mall parking lots, I wouldn’t hesitate hitting it! Ever tried to navigate Cresta’s parking lot for an exit? Maybe you’ve tried to find parking at Menyln? Or worse you’ve had to pay for underground parking at the V&A Waterfront underground parking. You see it’s not very difficult to convince you that we could really do better without these parking lot ‘architects’.
• Julius Malema – I think without the controversy that this man brings to the South African landscape SA politics would not be as exciting as it is, but the world would be a better place without this gene pool algae.
• Taxi drivers – I hate the taxi drivers for endangering the lives of the innocent passengers and bystanders in the way they drive. This doesn’t grind me as much as the recent threats the taxi industry is making against the rollout of the BRT. They are literally trying to hold the South African government at ransom, when commendably our government is finally attempting to sort out our lack of public transport.
• Carte Blanche – This is sensationalist reporting at its worst/best, what irritates me about this show (surprisingly it’s not the ridiculously close up shots of spokespeople) is how people consume anything the show says. Literally if Carte Blanche told everyone that all parking lot designers could be killed by the press of a simple button people would be honestly believe it.
• Self titled Social Media Experts – Let’s be honest who can really self title themselves as an expert. Enough said.
• 
• Babies – I hate babies, they serve no purpose…eat, poo, sleep..that’s it. I’m only interested in having kids if they pop out at about 2 years old.
• Traffic circles – Unfortunately these just don’t work in South Africa, for some reason we just don’t know how to work these ‘roundabout’ things.

What really gets to you?

I should probably make a list of things that I love just to prove that I’m a bit more balanced than this may appear.
