Another scunner is when people use their fingers to indicate quotation marks when they are speaking. Why? Hard to describe without actually doing it, but I think you will know what I mean.

Feel free to vent your anger here!!!!! In fact I'll join you!!!!! A forensics team for a veggie patch eh? Have I gone quite mad????? (We can do abuse of question marks too!!!!!!) What on earth will they do - take DNA samples from your runner beans?????

You say you're "not a happy bunny".... perhaps it's the other bunnies who are gorging themselves on your fresh produce who are the culprits????

Seriously though - are people near you really selfish enough to do that? If so, I'd get meself a shotgun. Tell us more please.

@Pastille -- commiserations!!!!!!!!!
@Pipesmoker -- they're best described as 'bunny ears' (happy or otherwise).

Pipesmoker: In the US we call them air quotes, and they're usually used by airheads.

Thank you for your sympathy, one and all. Perhaps I should explain the word scunner for those who are not Scottish. A scunner is that which gives one the boke.
