    People like this woman, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-45225045, who can see nothing wrong in how she parks her car and then goes into drama mode.

    The latest shitfest of an advert by the Halifax, this time trying to be clever with Ghostbusters.

    It’s not clever or funny and the actor is a prick.

    That bloody advert for Sixt car hire. It's been on at least 10 times during the test match, I have to press the mute button now when it comes on.

    My Missus......... Ive just being trying to amuse our 2 year old Granddaughter who is a bit bit of a misery today and Ive collapsed in a heap. My good lady says to her, "leave Grandad to rest and play with this, it will keep you quiet for half hour" and then gives her a feckin bell to ring.

    Shops that take no notice of what I tell them about faulty products that I am returning. It's a good thing that I can get a no-quibble refund, but the dead fish stare of the bored 'customer service' staff tells me that nothing will be done to improve the quality of the product for future customers. In fact, half the time I get the impression that what I'm returning will be placed straight back on the shelves. Which is quite a coincidence really, because half the time when I get stuff home I have the feeling that someone else has already returned the same stuff. Good old British retailing, doing it's best to recycle old shit.

    Adverts and trailers in cinemas. Fed up of turning up at the advertised start time for a film only to sit through 25 minutes of guff. Get on with the film!

    I set off for the cinema, 5 minutes away, at the advertised start time. By the time I've parked and got a drink the guff is almost done. Helps to book an aisle seat so nobody is disturbed when I saunter in.

    My own flatulence. It's disgusting - I smell appalling, I sound like a BBC Sound Effects tape, and I keep having to nip away from my desk under the pretence of taking a personal call on my mobile, so that I can deflate myself at top volume in the stairwell.

    I've not eaten anything unusual yet I've been stuck with this since Saturday. Weird and annoying!

    It must be bad if you can’t enjoy the smell of your own farts.

    It’s annoying but it’s nothing new, so as long as you have an allocated seat, add 20 minutes onto the scheduled start time and turn up then.

    The stairwell sounds like a poor choice. Does that not resonate and echo throughout all levels of the building? Or do you want to share with all?

    Acoustically you're correct, it is a poor choice. But it's the airiest part of the building, so short of going outside it's the best option. I try and mask the noise but running on the stairs at the same time.

    The word 'rocking', as in 'I'm rocking these new trainers'. Dreadful.
    Ditto 'This is how I roll'

    What the hell are these sports bra things that footballers are wearing at the moment?! Athletic Bilbao goalscorer has just whipped off his shirt to reveal what looks to me like ladies' sports lingerie.

    They are the heart rate monitors and trackers that tell the players who has been a lazy arse and who has covered every blade of grass and gone into what areas of the pitch. They do look utterly ridiculous though you are right

    "cultural appropriation"

    This is my biggest gear grinder at the moment.

    There's a video of a young woman verbally attacking a young lad Corey Goldstein for his dreadlocks.

    Dreadlocks somehow fit her view of cultural appropriation.

    Though they have been worn by the black community throughout history, they were regular features of nations worldwide since the dawn of man. Celts had them, Nordic Vikings were known to have had them. Before these I can almost guarantee cave men had them as they could not brush or wash their hair.

    Cultural Appropriation is first and foremost a sign of respect. That's it.

    One of the organisers was on telly yesterday commenting on the amount of crime at NHC, saying that less than 300 were arrested last year and that more people get arrested at football matches, so its not a problem.
    What games does he go to?
