  • I would love to see everybody's answers to all these threads because apart from Charlton I don't seem to have a huge amount in common with many and certainly wouldn't have much to converse down the pub on..

    It also reminds me I have a pretty good life and probably so much less stressed than most in here.

    Well get you !!

  • Don't hate (how can you hate an object ?) .. Dyson 'hoovers' .. overpriced with a dust container that needs emptying every 30 seconds .. good suction though !!

    Interesting that we continue to use the trademark name of Hoover as verb. Similar to Aspirin being used as any kind of headache tablet when Again it's a trademark.

    I know this sounds pedantic and it probably is but it was brought to my attention and i keep correcting myself when I have to do the hoovering Vacuuming.

    Can you think of any more?

  • Hate is too stronger word for it, but BBQs are a consistent disappointment. The best ones never live up to the hype and as for the worst ones...

    A kind of no category option....just whatever.

    Cricket

    Marijuana

    Rollercoasters - really hate them. Well I really hate the experience of going on them. Horrible. Never to be repeated.

    Sushi

    Pokemon

    Wealth.....I think we should all be wild and not allow a currency to dictate our next move. Bit of a weird one as I would like to be rich so I became powerful and could do whatever I want..... Wealth often falls into the wrong hands. So that power of seperation is bad. Don't confuse this with capitalism and ambition. Those things are great. Hard to differentiate though.

    Christianity

    New years eve

    Snapchat - what's the point? Other apps will produce the same idea of sharing pictures. Bugs me.

    Apple music - as Noel Gallagher said.....why would I want access to 500million shit albums when I can just buy and keep the stuff I like.

    Its convenient ....but soon, the question "what was the 1st record you purchased?" Will be dead. It's too easy.







    So tempted to flag you for that first one.

    Heretic!

    Come on we need you to explain these.
  • Cricket and Rugby, both pony sports.
    Fans of both seem to have a massive inferiority complex when it come to the beautiful game.
  • The next person to say cricket gets a flag.
  • Christmas (sorry!)

    I'm a fan of both and love the Beautiful game too. They are not mutually exclusive.

    Whoops, I haven't understood the thread. These things were meant to be considered "great".
  • Anything made by K2 (I think that was the company that made hair trimmers or such like in the 70's out of plastic).

    Umbrellas are for people who can't stomach the rain, get a grip they look silly and a bit or rain never did anyone any harm!
    Toasters, more dubious but my experience of them are theres always a problem. Toast is burnt, struggles to come out properly or just always broken!

    Well done, but to many others they are, that why I wrote what I did.

    can't say i hate toasters but we don't have one at home, we use the grill as, imho, it's nicer and you get your toast exactly how you want it.
