Folk who wear over-ear headphones in public. 

People who sit in coffee shops with their laptops trying to look busy/important. 

Nothing wrong with wearing over-ear headphones, they are the best do not disturb sign you can get. The people in coffee shops you refer to are invariably writing a book.

Of course, if you really want to dick them about on the phone, you could say E for eulogy, P for psychiatrist, K for knee etc. 

Spoke to a Greek lad on the phone once day and he said “H for eh, omlette”.

Aye, I had a look around on Google there. Perfectly normal behaviour. Not my finest hour.

F for fanny.

Which reminds me of an incident from 1990, working in a medium-sized office. The main product we worked on had "Vixen", as part of its name. A lad from Longniddry was phoning around for insurance quotes for his motorbike, and discussing his progress and insurer options with an older fellas from Musselburgh. In the spirit of the topic, I will denote them by Lima and Mike, respectively. Lima's bike's registration started with a V, which he was completely unable to communicate to the woman on the other end of the phone ("Whisky"). The conversation rang pretty loudly around the office, Whisky's contributions emerged later.

Whisky: "What's the registration of the vehicle?"

Lima: "V123 ABC"

Whisky: "D123 ABC?"

Lima: "Naw! VEE123 ABC!"

Whisky: "DEE123 ABC?"

Lima: "Naw! VEE! V for Vixen!"

Whisky: "D for Dixon?"

Lima: "Naw!"

Mike (to Lima): "V for Vagina."

Lima (triumphantly): : Aye! V for Vagina!"

Whisky: "Ah, ah yes, I see. Vee."

We didn't do much work on that office.
