Bushy: pretty much anything with the word Survival in it (Its a crappy plastic handled, made in china, cheap, flimsy knife-you will not survive the apocalypse with a knife that is also a shovel/fishing rod/hammer/screwdriver/colour tv......)

I don't care if it works I want one of those.

Bushy - Ticks and hayfever.

Non- people who insist on staying in the outside lane of duel or motorway carriages regardless of no one being in slow lanes.

Bushy - Dry off equipment after it getting wet. I don't mind the rain, i don't mind gettting wet, what gets my goat is drying everything off afterwards, especially tents!

Non-Bushy - Depending how politically correct you want them:

PC: Pointless Warning Labels - Just let Darwinism take its course and decrease the surplus population!
Non-PC: £2-a-month pleas - The best thing that can be done for those people is to just let nature takes its course. That being said, we should ensure our own house is in-order before shipping money off abroad so if these pleas must exist, only show ones that sort out this country first.

If the above offends, feel free to remove.

Bushy, anything with 'Tactical' on the label or description

Non bushy, Vegan/organic/herbal remedy/tree hugging/save the bla bla/PC/I love everyone brigade.

Oh, pensioners on pension day in Tesco with the "Get out me way I'm old" attitude.
 
Bushy-got to go with wet kit drying, how the heck am i mean to fit a 3x4.5m tarp somewhere to dry?

non bushy- two here
higher management using doublespeak and/or motivational nonsense they clearly picked up at a business training seminar-go for the win there is no i in team my door is always open. the double speak really hacks me off, i might be lowly care worker minion now but i am a minion not a moron
the other and this will maybe incur advice/annoyance is smoking. i smoke, i am aware it is bad for me, i am aware it is bad for everyone around me, this is why i am prepared to stand outside at home/work/the pub etc so others do not have to suffer my habit. the thing that bugs me is being told repeatedly i need to quit, i've tried, i've failed. i have tried approx 4 times since Jake was born just over a year ago and i tried 3 times while Lisa was pregnant, i will quit but it needs to be a time of my choosing rather than because i am told to.

Bushy: SAKs, they're town knives not country knives. Mine is a Cybertool which I've used to build and repair many a computer, but it's just too flimsy for bushcraft.

Non-bushy: bean-tin exhausts.:AR15firin

Tut Tut Tut !!!!!!! yes explanation needed ,,,these insects are bottom of the food chain and are needed..... its nature if you dont like it stay in the house or deal with it,,, dont complain !

Its room 101 not a future plan for genocide, although it would be tempting if i had my finger on the midge destruction button. The whole welts, itch, infection, disease and pain would be my drawn out explanation.
I had best get wrapped and gunked up for a few nights of bug fun this weekend!

Anything made by the tool company Silverline

The mauls are fine, or at least the ones they sold a few years ago were.

Not fancy but do the job perfectly and to my mind I can't see the point in spending masses on a posh one cos its the shape that does the work, you don't even need them particularly sharp.

Bushy: Those cuts I always seem to have all over my knuckles at the end of a camping trip, that I never know how I got.

Non bushy: People who don't indicate when turning left at a roundabout, lane hoggers, people who stop at a roundabout when there is clearly nothing coming from the right.

But most of all... people (pretty much everyone these days) who say "Could of" , "Would of" , "should of" etc.
It doesn't make an ounce of sense, you CAN NOT replace 've with of.

Rant over.

Can i have another go?

bushy-how one simple idea results in yet more kit rearrangement and potentially purchases

non bushy- i was taught to be polite and hold doors, step out of the way, wait for folk if on a thin path. so i do all of them, used to get thanks nowadays i get glared at like i didnt move quick enough
