    Isn't that precisely what the 'Zoo Café' is for on Zoochat?

    If you went into a café at any zoo, not every person would be talking about animals or zoos in that café. Some would be talking about music, TV series or things they hate in life, among other topics. :p

    People who go on to a music video on Youtube and leave comments about how they don't like the song or the artist. Well, why click on it/watch it in the first place?

    When people try to argue with you about a topic your an expert on! (Zoos and animals are primary subjects ;))

    When you stand on a LEGO brick or a plug socket.

    People (usually vegetarians or vegans) who come up to you and say "If you love animals so much then why do you eat them?"

    When you open up a packet of crisps/sweets and the content explodes everywhere.

    That's only if you're forced to use inferior British type G plugs, the mainland European ones (C, E, and F) are obviously far superior. :p

    People who don't shut up or text during a movie.It's expensive enough to go see them without having to listen to Joe Public talk about whatever is happening in their life that we don't need to hear about.

    you reply, "if animals weren't meant to be eaten then why are they made out of meat?"

    Good one, but I usually say "if animals are allowed to eat animals then why can't we?"

    A few more irritating things that are also quite painful as well:

    Stumping your toe on something hard
    Getting shampoo in your eyes
    Paper-cuts
    Catching your nail on a piece of cloth

    Cinemas

    When you look up the run time of a movie you want to see and it's 1 hour 40 minutes, but then the cinema says it's 2 hours 5 minutes. That's 25 minutes of $#%* (previews) nobody wants to see.

    If the movie says it starts at 6pm, it's nice to get there at 6pm and see the movie, not get there at 6pm and have to wait until 6.25pm to see it.

    Canned laughter in shows

    It's largely died a death but some shows still have it. A joke is either funny or it's not, I don't need to be told when to laugh.

    The worst I've seen was a show where they replayed the same clip of laughter each time. It sounded VERY forced and there was an especially obnoxious person laughing at the end, which identified it as the same clip each time. It literally ruined the show.

    You could reply "If you like animals so much, why do you eat all their food?"

    :p

    The Transformers films are guilty of that.
