"What things make you cringe slightly?
For example, ear rings on babies/toddlers "
This, and any type of baby jewellery really. And also a toddler with a dummy plug. Nothing worse than trying to see a toddler trying to talk through a dummy plug. I will not have them at work, they go in the child's bag and stay there until hometime lol |

When you're on holiday and you're already a little embarrassed because you only know limited amounts of the language and our European neighbours are almost fluent then another group of obnoxious British people show up being loud and rude and refusing to even try to speak the language. |

And expect everyone to automatically speak English, then won’t even slow down to communicate with a Belgian trying to be nice  |

Exactly. Or complaining about things being done differently to the UK or the food not being British. You wonder why some people go abroad  . |

They count down holidays from January, only 30 weeks to go. Then come home and say 2 weeks is too long 10 days would have been enough. Then book a 2 week holiday the next year and the circle revolves again  |

I was once in Barcelona and overheard some young British tourists. One was attempting Spanish. Another said "stop, don't, you'll encourage them"
What, encourage Spaniards to speak Spanish in Spain?!  |

That's hilarious though slightly depressing. |

It’s ridiculous that someone would speak Spanish in Spain. It grates on me |

"Woman of the larger size in leggings and a cropped top!  "
Some look amazing though, I know some bigger girls who are absolutely beautiful who can pull this off. I have stretch marks so wouldn't show my tummy personally, but some just can wear anything and look amazing regardless of size.
Plus size women and men, on days like this when it's hot, dress for comfort and wear what you like. We can't all have the same bodies that are acceptable or pleasing to all in society but we do all have a right to be cool on a hot day |

I agree 
But doesn’t stop me cringing when I see it.
Btw I’m a larger size  |

When you see toddlers with fizzy drinks and sweets.
When people post selfies of them crying. I can't imagine being upset and filming myself.
When people are overly affectionate in public. |

LOL piercing baby ears is very common in one side of my culture; the parents then gift a pair of gold earrings to their baby. It seems cruel but tbh I'm glad I got mine done as I would have been too scared to do it now! I've still got my baby earrings, it's a lovely keepsake in my eyes |
