    Stupid changes to the MOT test. Yesterday my dad's car failed the MOT because the head lamp washers didn't work. Yet if there had been no head lamp washers on the car, it would have passed. What sort of idiot thinks up such stupid rules.

    On my old Mazda van I was told that it would fail the MOT because the spare tyre was not up to scratch. The guy told me to drive the van round the block and "lose" the spare. I did, it passed. I didn't need a spare apparently.

    When you mention in passing to someone (usually an old person) that you might like to do something or go somewhere and they keep going on and on about it. Even though it was just a passing whim that you're not really bothered about, for days and weeks afterwards they are trying to weave it into every conversation as if it was helping to fulfil your life's ambition.

    Similarly, when you've had the hump (possibly because some old codger has mistaken a minor impulse for an unabating ambition) and you're on your way out of it and back to normality and someone keeps on saying "I don't know what you've got the 'ump about" over and over, making it impossible to recover from the bad mood because they keep reminding you that you were in a bad mood.

    People who genuinely believe that walking on certain slabs of concrete will somehow influence the nature of the universe. It's not just stupid, it isn't just naive; it's arrogant. Arrogant to believe that YOU can control events of a day by choosing whether or not to walk on manhole covers.

    Right minded, sensible people too, who, in the rest of their day-to-day lives, probably have no superstitions at all. Which makes it worse. 'Cos they're bright enough to know better. Superstition on the whole annoys me, but this is utterly ridiculous.

    To sum up - people who avoid manhole covers for good luck are f****** idiots.

    ^^^ On Fridays (or Tuesdays) I make sure I go up the correct escalator corresponding to whether we're playing home or away. Home: left. Away: right.

    TV chefs not using the whole bowl of ingredients when throwing them in to the pan! I've got this ocd thing when I'm cooking that I have use every last morsal of whatever I've chopped up and I can't see why these amatures on the box can't do the same!

    Jamie oliver is the worse when he starts chucking things into a bowel half of it going all over the table before he douse's it with olive oil.
    And when he's prepared a salad he's thrown all the ingredients in and it looks pretty good. I can't do that cos it just looks like a mess so I have to meticulously place all the ingredients so that the salad looks presentable.

    The fact that the fat-tongued twat spits all over the food when he talks is bad enough, now I hear he chucks things in a bowel! Revolting!

    Dad and I sing along, we thought it was playing really quietly, but maybe we imagined it. If this is true, I'm going to go nuts.

    Eh!? How, precisely, does posting on an internet forum help a club in crisis?
