buying presents

Everyone I know is difficult to buy for.  My bird's birthday tomorrow, she don't like flowers, doesn't drink and won't want chocolates.  If I buy clothes or jewellery she won't won't like it, she's fussy about these things.

Same at christmas, trapsing round the shops buying stuff for people they don't want, don't need or won't appreciate

Get her a Charlton top, if she doesn’t like it, you can have it. Or just get her a rabbit with extra batteries, that’ll keep her quiet.

Not if she lives next door to @iamdan

I think Lord Snooty of the Tory party is on to something when he talks about dropping the comma after the word and, and several phrases which are not to be used any more.

An electric cattle prod up the rusty bullet hole from me for those who continue to use the following phrases:

My bad

Hollybobs

Back in the day

I don't want to sound racist/homophobic/mysogynistic, but.....

Listen, I'm being truthful now.. (You're not the rest of time then).

Feel free to add.

Slippers and a vibrator. 
If she doesn’t like the slippers she can go f*** herself.

Possibly only a continental Europe thing, as I don't remember people doing it back in the UK, but people standing by pelican crossings with no intention of crossing the fookin road is annoying, and it happens far too often 

It does happen here. I think it's probably less common though, because we have rather less zebra crossings.  I've seen some of these French towns where you are blessed with a crossing every 100m or so.  Back in Blightly you can walk for three days and never see one, and when you do it'll have been converted into a Pelican/Puffin/Pterodactyl or some other silly named monstrosity where there is a button to push but nothing actually happens until 10 seconds after a gap in the traffic when everyone crossed regardless.

People don't need the pre-cursor to a racist comment anymore they just go for it !

Anything at all to do with selling people their credit scores.  It's their fucking data, people should be able to charge these money grabbing scumbags for holding it.

I’m in Turkey at the moment and on the transfer from the Airport to the Hotel I got talking to a few blokes who were staying at the same place .
They seemed nice enough but when I went down to the pool in the morning they were all sitting there in their shorts and tops off and every one of them had a fucking Eagle tattooed on their chests with CPFC underneath. 
Ive been trying to avoid the Nigel’s ever since. 

MartinCAFC

Drums at football grounds that just beat constantly throughout a game but don't beat to any specific songs or get the crowd going.

Blackburn two weeks ago was this, Preston and Oldham also spring to mind, also a bit of a recurring theme with North Western teams.

I can completely appreciate this and I know how hateful it would make me

I hate em.
A mate of mine has just had a hot tub/ jacuzzi installed. He’s very proud of it, pix on FB etc.
Come round he said, we’ll have a BBQ, some beers and we can all check out the hot tub, I told him I’m gonna swerve the Hot tub, he asked why, I told him ‘cos if you turn the bubbles off, it’s just a few old people sharing a bath’

The idea of stripping off and sitting in a big bath in the garden with some mates just seems odd. Are the swingers trying to tempt you in ??

I hope he changed the water in what is clearly his dirty sex pond

neighbours. 

they have a bathroom window that looks out on our garden. not a problem but they obviously have some real nasty smelling dumps as they are consistently opening it and leaving it open for hours on end (which is the main issue) 

now i know its not a major issue but they themselves piss me off whenever i have heard them (not on the loo) but when they're outside in their garden or when they are naturally just being loud. the conversations are usually dull and they're usually so happy. talking about tennis, dining out and other middle class ramblings which me being a negative anti social moaning git these conversations just wind me up. add to this their over spending on landscaping their garden which has taken about the same amount of time as the M20 roadworks and the over predictable fact that i have just found out they are palace fans, i am now on the verge of finally losing it, causing sufficient damage to those insufferable nigels for good.

I dont think its your neighbours.....its you. 90% of your rant about them is just normal living next door to people stuff. stuff. I open my bathroom window every morning after having a shower & dont shut it until evening. Perhaps you should go & live alone somewhere

Channel 4

They have the main channel as well as more 4, E4 and All 4 online but seem to want to show tons of repeats of American sit coms despite having tons of old stuff they could be showing like Scully, Prospects, the Manageress etc. 

I’m currently sat in bed watching every episode of Scully, takes me right back
