    The premier inn adverts. They're not cool places to stay, they're functional. You talk yourself into moderately thinking oh yeah, the breakfasts are good. You get your plate and then realise it's a load of shite.

    That travelling salesman one as well :-/

    I've never been on a hotel stay with a colleague and been that excited

    The constant, forever, non-stop futile discussions as to whether A, B or C is the best in the world or even more ridiculous best ever! It's in all sport all the time and usually fuelled by BBC radio.

    Are you an "investment banker"?
    No I'm not. But I could have been. Lots of friends from my course went into that area. I avoided it because of the long hours and the sell your soul to reach the top sort of attitude.

    Chose a less pressured role with a supposed better work life balance but the last couple of weeks have been horrendous.

    22 only just graduated. My comment was very much tongue in cheek. As said above I didn't follow the money like many of my friends. Just had a few weeks doing silly hours. I still made the right call long term. Enjoy this work more than I would banking anyway.

    Adverts about bodies and bodily functions on the tv, especially when I'm eating. Sat down to my dinner tonight only for a load of hairy old armpits to appear on the screen. Completely put me off my offal.

    Getting a speeding ticket for going 60 on the M20 in the variable speed limit section with a 50 sign up ahead. I'm sure the one before was on 60 (and so I slowed to 50 for the one ahead) as I remember thinking it couldn't have been flashing me for that reason, but we all know I can't prove it!

    £100 that I really haven't got & 3 points, or if I'm lucky more money I really haven't got and a speed awareness course. Sigh.

    Same here, between Junc 6 and 7. In fact I think I'd just come of the slip road of 7 at speed when I noticed the 50 up above, so reduced speed, but only to 62 when I got snapped.

    Gutted as i genuinely don't take the piss with speed.

    Been offered the course for £67, so could have been worse I guess.

    Yeah I'm hoping they might offer me the course!

    Germans.

    In Majorca at the moment and there's thousands of them. No problem with that of course but they seem to have a predisposition to stare at you for no reason whatsoever. Happened quite a few times already to the extent that I've had to ask them what they're staring at whereby they stop staring and say nothing.

    Also had an argument with a middle aged German lady about spa etiquette. She mentioned to my son that he should sit on a towel in the sauna. She pointed out this rule to him while sitting on a towel stark bollock naked.

    Kids who have stupid haircuts cause their parents think it makes them look cute, it doesn't!

    Particularly prevalent in films and ads. Like the kid in the Champions League ad, whose dad manages to get Barca tickets and his kid gets to be a mascot.

    I'd gladly throttle him!

    When colleagues peer over your shoulder and enquire as to what you're eating and how nice it looks, invariably as you begin eating a mouthful.

    it's a soup and roll... not Michelin star cuisine.

    I don’t think you’ve met him, but that actually looks like Dave Mehmet.

    * I’ve not seen him undressed before (and have no desire to), but I should imagine that gif is a match.

    I know what you're saying but there is a rule posted saying swim wear must be worn in the sauna. I couldn't get my point across to her however despite trying to speak to her in a German accent.

    People who walk or cycle with dogs off leads on busy streets. Seen some cyclists with dogs on leads towing behind but on the traffic side.

    So bloody irresponsible but of course there seems to be a fashion in london as if to say " Look at how well behaved my dog is!"

    Maybe dog(s) are well behaved but it's when the unexpected happens however unlikely, at least you can pull your dog away, if it's on a lead!
