Things that are, frankly, a load of old sh*t

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

And... RELAX!

And don't get me started on these wanky pull-along cases. How lovely to have to listen to some tosser's SUITCASE FFS roaring along loud as Concorde on cheapo crappy wheels about half a mile away. DESTROY!

Whilst we're on the subject of wanky loud wheels, how about skateboards? There's nothing quite like hearing the sound of a fully grown man on their TOY skateboard scraping along at midnight when you're trying to get to sleep.

OOh I've got one...

What about TOY STORY doing SKY adverts.

In fact ALL of those Sky adverts.

Also:

The fact that after leaving The Office as two series of near-perfection and stating that he wouldn't go back to it; Ricky Gervais is now so devoid of ideas and comedic equity that he's remortgaging it to the hilt with his "learn guitar with..." and Foregone Conclusion World Tour GUFF.

LEAVE IT BE.

iPhones/iPods not playing FLAC files without downloading a paid app and much f@rting about uploading the files. Sh1te.

It doesn't really affect The Office though does it? He's just having a laugh, together, at men, with women. It's not like he's doing it because his career's on the skids and he's desperate for money?!

People at the airport check in counter who've overloaded their suitcases and are stuffing their hand baggage full of stuff to bring the weight down. I don't want to see your thongs and lacy knickers you fat tw@t. Weigh your cases at home you frigging morons.

Poland's defence

Danny Welbeck's first touch

Giving away a quarter of your ground to some PLUMBERS.

Citizen Khan-who on earth decided that that load of shite should get a second series? It shouldn't even have got a second show.

I agree in principle that you can try and avoid these things, to attempt to retain your opinion of the original. But you just know that some parts of the forthcoming wall to wall promotion of this will cut through in it's own insidious way - and no matter how much you try to resist - will change things.

In fact, the more I think about it the more Partridgean this is becoming.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Cath Kidston bags everywhere

Automatic train announcements

Liquorice All Sorts

Pickled Beetroot

Nora Roberts novels

Jacob's Creek (except the Rosé Shiraz)

Rosé (except the Jacob's Creek Rosé Shiraz)

Cheap chicken nuggets

Renewing your car insurance

Dogs in handbags

Very long lists

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

Paper cuts.
Friction burns
Popped blisters
1 muscle in the back hurting.

All PATHETIC injuries but really are SHIT if you have them. If i'm in constant pain I atleast want some BLOOD to show others how it happened.

There are free ones about, I was directed to one as a result of this forum, can't remember what it was called though.

DJ Dave Berry's list of 10 albums every man should own in the Telegraph today. Aside from the Partridge-esque quote about "knowing something about music" followed by getting the Who's drummer wrong and then the lead singer of Portishead that list is, in the main, something Jeremy Clarkson would have put his name to.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

People at work who direct message you to see if you're free to have telephone conversation with them, and when you say 'yes' ask you your phone number. Surely, if you want to talk to me you can be bothered to look up my bl**dy phone number. It's on my bl**dy email signature for a start!!

(Sorry - this has happened a lot today)... grrr.

People that email you and 2 minutes later come over to your desk and say "did you get my email?"

SAKE! I'm going to have to look at it now to check...............

Edit - you're right. I love that Pulp Fiction soundtrack but not his description of it.
