little things that annoy the shit out of you

[Pony Princess]

"ongoing incident in Liverpool city centre" fuck off the Echo. Completely irresponsible click bait tweeting

 

Echo website is an absolute disgrace especially on mobile. Loads of pop ups and surveys, then serious articles mixed with 'Doctors hate this Liverpool grandma who just made a 50p skin cream that made her look 25' shite.

I used to love the echo growing up. The pink echo and all that. Now it is the shittest thing you could ever imagine up.

The only good thing about the echo now is the comments in the online version.

Sitting down. Getting all comfortable and then realising I've left the remote on the other side of the fucking room.

People who pronounce "plastic" as "plarstic" (primarily BBC newsreader types). Fuck off.

On a similar theme, news readers annoy me when pronouncing Iran and Iraq. They're pronounced ee-ran and ee-rack, not i-rarn and i-rark.

Southern English people pronouncing the name of the  Spanish sparkling wine as Car-Var, and correcting me for calling it Cava.

All these people thinking Big Ben not chiming is a big deal, get a grip you fucking cunts. 

[Dave D]

Faulty goods.

 

Just bought a new radio for the kitchen- seems a pretty good radio- if the volume knob worked. I cant turn the bloody thing down. Figured it must be me being an out of touch techno fobe and there would be some kind of hipster way of doing it, but nope. Read the book, its just a good old fashioned twister knob thing.

 

Cant wait for the Argos conversation when I take it back. Everyone in the queue will be thinking " silly twat is doing it wrong"

 

But Im not.... fucking hope Im not!

Have you tried plugging it in?

The Microsoft TV advert, notably "Mr. Jackson the rapping teacher".

 

FUCK OFF YOU CREEPY HIPSTER PAEDOPHILE.

The Milton Keynes documentary doing a whole segment on the roundabouts with some virgin roundabout spotters/appreciators banging on about how it's the Mecca of roundabouts in the country, whilst simultaneously decrying how it's all people ever mention when you are asked where you come from. The best part of the show was when they featured my old school and interviewed some of the new pupils. For those who understandably switched off after the roundabout love in, my school had a pretty exciting new approach to teaching - no uniforms, teachers called by their first names and entire days dedicated to an activity from golf to maths to a day out to a museum. Of course some fucking dull thundercunt decided to turn it into every other school in the country, so all those things have gone now.

[Bobby Hundreds]

The school photo everyone with their bollocks out.

The new Capri Sun advert with the "guess the name" game.

 

Nothing about it doesn't annoy me.

[Dave D]

Restaurants that close off lots of tables while its quiet/early and cram people into one area.

[Trumo]

Having to go home from work because you feel like crap. Only once before have I had to do that, as normally I'll brave it out or call in sick. It doesn't help when you're stuck in traffic on the way back because a lorry is unloading its cargo.

[Elite]

because a lorry is unloading its cargo.

Is that a euphemism for you having the shits?

Agreed. "Is it me?" No its not you because you wont come in a bottle you awkward prick

When a black man, usually a sportsman, does something like have their photo taken, wear clothes, or maybe even act like a bit of a twat and someone says (or writes) "he looks like he thinks he some sort of rapper"; in a disparaging tone, as if they've never met a person of colour before and don't realise that hip hop has existed for 40 years.

 

It's annoying but I reserve the right to call any sportsman in a tailored suit a Tory wanker.

Double negatives, which seem to be coming more commonplace.

 

"Everything about it annoys me." Surely?

 

I'd like Paul's views on whether this is acceptable, I was always told it wasn't.
