little things that annoy the shit out of you

[Bobby Hundreds]

Crickets. Seriously how fucking loud are these little bastards! The little pricks are awake all night like nature's fucking car alarm that can't be turned off. The sound penetrates time and space so it's like the fuckers have moved in next to your head. 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Tv is generally shit but my god how bad is saturday morning TV. I never usually watch it but put it on this morning and its Alan Titchmarsh doing the most tediously boring shit in the most tediously boring way, who fucking funds and makes this shit and allows it on TV. 

 

If you are going to make boring shit why not teach us some skills with this wasted air time. Have a series of a guy teaching us how to build decking week by week or tile a bathroom or a million other fucking things that may be boring but isn't Titchmarsh highlighting the death of Morris dancing, things should fucking die its a national embarrassment, things fading from cultural relevance isn't a bad thing, traditions shouldnt exist for the sake of it. Titchmarsh should be on a channel that takes 10 minutes to scroll too.

[Bobby Hundreds]

Fucking now I walk in the room and it's Titchmarsh talking to Sue Barker, riveting shit! Two utterly boring arseholes, these fuckers would just eat digestives and refuse a brew, dry crumbly and tired.

This took me back. When the kids were young the wife bought them a gecko lizard as a pet. 
 

I didn’t mind the lizard, even though it did fuck all interesting. 
 

It ate live crickets but the fuckers kept escaping and creating a racket that interrupted my sleep. The wife and kids slept right through the cacophony of noise, just to piss me off even more. 
 

When we moved we gave the lizard to the removal guy and bought a cat.
 

The cat has since made it his life’s work to find ways to wake me up at 4.00am. 

 

Fucking pets.

I've decided to never have any pets ever again. They are fun and nice to have around but I genuinely can't be arsed with them anymore, they always need something or offer some mild annoyance.

Every pet we’ve ever had has been annoying. 
 

I love the dog, wouldn’t be without him, but he’s a pain in the arse as well.
 

Hopefully he’ll be around for a few years yet but it might be while (if ever) before we get another one, after he’s gone.

My kids have chosen a hamster (RIP) and a dog (PITA) so I’m choosing the next pet when the dog croaks it. 
 

I want a talking bird of some sort. Preferably an African Grey parrot and preferably without costing loads of money.

Whatever you get, hope you give it a better name.

Coolio isn’t ‘an educated fool with money on my mind’ if anything that’s someone like Johnson.

 

Coolio is an undereducated, but incredibly smart person failed by the education system.

 

I think this needs addressing more as coolio seemed to have a real downer on himself.

 

Anyway, happy Friday.

Music snobs. Watching Roisin Murphy perform on Jools Holland just then - she was great in Moloko, but for me, this was a load of smug, self indulgent shite. I can guarantee though, someone will pipe up saying that it was "challenging" and "brilliant" and it's because I just don't "get it" - like good music is some kind of exclusive club rather than just a personal expression of what you happen to like. Nick Cave fans get particularly prickly about this kind of thing.

Not sure how. I didn't like it, some people might. But music snobs always make out that you only don't like it because you're not as clever as them or as edgy.

Should you not be annoyed at her for being shit rather than some hypothetical music snobs?

Saw that, thought the same. 

 

She's in good company with Holland thought, both self indulgent shite.

Maybe I read your post wrong but were't you also being a snob? 

[Jose Jones]

I generally approve of Roisin Murphy, she’s done some quality stuff over the years and tries not to be boring. Her most recent album isn’t very good though.

 

Even if it was mind you, @Rushies tash obviously just wouldn’t get it. He probably likes Coldplay.

This upstanding forum was built upon people posting while inebriated.
Don’t even think about quitting what has made this forum the place it is.

The weather. Depressing as fuck. I'd much rather have cold,bright days than constant fuckin rain. People who complained when it didnt rain for three days in the Summer should be ashamed of themselves. Here is your answer,about 6 weeks of constant pissing down.
