little things that annoy the shit out of you

I always, always tie my dressing gown belt too tightly. Pain in the arse trying to undo the knot.

To help you get through the day

 

”I've travelled this old world of ours from Barnsley to Peru, 
I've had sunstroke in the arctic and a swim in Timbuktu, 
I've seen unicorns in Burma and a Yeti in Nepal, 
And I've danced with ten-foot pygmies in a Montezuma hall, 
I've met the King of China and a working Yorkshire miner, 
But I've never met a nice South African!

(Chorus) 
No he's never met a nice South African, 
And that's not bloody surprising man, 
'Cause we're a bunch of arrogant bastards who hate black people!”

Brilliant. Tough to get away with that today like.

Ha , I think I'll send this to the little prick on his WhatsApp, once I've been paid of course. 

Fitting  a floor for the little pedantic freak. The whole apartment and the poor little soul is struggling with the upheaval, bless him.

I mean , who the fuck gets out of bed every morning , and folds his duvet in a square , sticks it on the middle of his bed with pillows on top ?

Freak

Bit of a niche one but music reaction videos on YouTube.

 

I cant be arsed with people in their forties who pretend they have never heard of Michael Jackson and say its the first time they have ever seen the Thriller video.

 

 

I get what you're saying about random dickheads as you have mentioned, I don't bother with them but I do occasionally watch stuff by actual musicians who often look at artists you may not have heard of or they break down the components of songs from a production POV.

 

I regularly which stuff by Rick Beato or Justin Hawkins for example.

Every time I go upstairs on a bus I bang my head, then manage to do it 10 minutes later when I get off too.

Fuck off you tall cunt

I'm not even tall, a shade under 5'10, Mr average. I think I must bounce when I walk or something. Spring-heeled Jack over here.

It gets worse , kettle hidden away in the cupboard, and not a biscuit to be found. 

I'm beyond disgusted.

[Kevin D]

My electric heater only work 70% of the time. Just enough that I’d feel guilty throwing it away, but not enough to actually rely on, it frustrates me endlessly.

Fucking annoying when at the end of a long message I’ve just sent, I spot that I’ve said that I’m ‘…in the bus….’ And not ‘…on the bus….’ And I always have to edit and correct it. Gets in my fucking nerves.

Pointless. 
 

The final round. Particularly when they say that “there were loads of pointless answers, well done at home if you got one” but then proceed to only show you 4 or 5 of the pointless answers and then tell you that everything else was pointless apart from (then tell you the scoring answers)

 

How the fuck are you able to categorically know whether you got an answer that was both correct AND pointless, the required things to win the end game, if they don’t show you all of the pointless answers? Your answer mightn’t be in the scoring ones they tell you about, but it could be a wrong answer and not “pointless” as per the rules of the game. 
 

It really annoys me! Are you just meant to guess if your answer is one of the pointless ones for that category? It seems so! 
 

They need to adopt a system like Who Dares Wins, the old quiz show that Nick Knowles presented and which incorporated the lottery draw into the show. 
 

They’d ask questions which had lots of answers (for example: How many players can you name who’ve got over 50 England caps?) and once the round was over they’d show all the correct answers on the screen (as below.) They were only on for a bit, but Sky+ allowed you to pause and see if your answer was on the list. 
 

Fucking sort it out Pointless. A serious oversight in an otherwise enjoyable show.

Agreed, but I find the fact that their jackpot is little more than a half eaten Freddo and some change they found down the sofa way more annoying.

It's up to around £8k, I think. 
 

Meaning that nobody has won it for about 12 years, for it to get that high.

Alexander Armstrong's hair stylist doesn't come cheap.

 

Agree though that it is ridiculous that a nothing show like Lingo pays out far more than BBC's flagship teatime show.

[Captain Turdseye]

The first four and a half minutes of ‘Breaking Into Heaven’ by The Stone Roses. What’s the fucking point?

 

The other six or seven minutes make for an all time great song. They’ve removed the shorter version of it from Spotify. Bastards.

I don't think any of those countries got over 50 England caps.

Most songs are shit if over 4 or 5 minutes anyway. If you like it that much you can always put it on repeat. It's what we did with our old 45rpm singles. We just played them over and over or on the LPs you'd just pick up the needle/stylus and carefully place it in the groove again. Old School rules.
