See I kind of agree with this, but is there anything more frustrating than when you are watching something with your bird and a really funny bit/good bit is coming up and you are saying watch this now watch this, and they pay no attention whatsoever, I hate that so much. I think I may have a point, I also think I may be the guy you are talking about in the original post !
On another note I hate these things :
"are you leaving now"
"yeah I am leaving right now"
"so you will be at ours in ten minutes then"
"yeah defo"
Said person shows up 30 minutes later and surprise surprise they were not leaving when they said they were. Why not just tell me you are going to be half an hour. Then I would have no expectation.
I hate the continued use of the word "innit" its ridiculous how this has found its way into millions of peoples every day vocabulary, Ali G had a lot to answer for.
Just one more thing, people who tuck football shirts into jeans, this should be a criminal offence.
