    That droning boring voice of that geezer who was in a band in the 90's & is now some fecking professor, sending me & the dog into a coma as he trips over rocks in Iceland while spinning eggs.

    It's 9pm...........I thought this shit ended at kids bedtime.

    Dear God how does anyone learn from him?

  • How many episodes of Expedition Bigfoot have I gotta sit through before they catch the bugger? 

    I mean, we're up to series 5 episode 3 at the moment - still nothing  :/

    I think it's in the back of her mind that she has to get home to cook her husband's dinner.

    I'm not sure what is more annoying, AI voices accompanying videos or practically all vloggers/YouTubers voices. I'll find something online that i really like the sound of, but straight away the voice kills it.

    Just bought some Hoover bags from Amazon they are meant to include five freshener capsules, bags turned up and no capsules. Messaged the seller and they replied and apologising and asking me to send an image of the issue, I replied ‘an image of nothing?’
  • People on trains. Not all of them but the ones who feel the need to have a seat for themselves and one for their bag. Then there are the people with banana shaped backbones who can't sit up straight. The ones who need a foot rest, (the seat opposite). First thing in the morning, people who sleep on the train really annoy me, they have made it to the station and onto the train presumably without sleep walking but feel the need to drop off as soon as they sit down. The ones continually sipping water or a coffee from a special beaker, when did that become thing? Certainly didn't happen in my youth, we had a cup of tea before leaving home and one when we got to work. People who eat on trains, they are not going to starve on their daily commute if they go without a station sausage roll.  People who can't put their rubbish in the bins provided by the train operators that are conveniently located by the bloody doors. People, (99.9999% male), who are not clean shaven and look like they don't have access to a comb. The slobs who can't clean their shoes or trainers.
    Last week, when I got on the 06:25 from Orpington there was a person who was most of the above, one week on he is still annoying me.

    I bought some iron hooks from Toolstation for about two quid, and was asked to review them. FFS, I thought. Then did it anyway, thus:

    Very hooky hooks

    They're hooks. For hanging things on. I hung something on them and it stayed there. Five stars!

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    There was a review of a hair removal product on Amazon a few years ago by some guy. Obviously made up but very long and very funny.

    Gimps who use the phrase ‘utter woke nonsense’. It’s not funny and it never will be.

    I don't know who is worse here, the dog who shouldn't be on the furniture or the guy in joggers who should know not to put his feet on the furniture let alone an animal like that. Looks a bit XL Bully to me so I wouldn't want to be the one to ask it to move.
    As weird as this may seem, I think I might have seen this dog and owner a few weeks back. I was coming home I think, I had had a couple of  beers so I can't actually be sure where I was. The dog and owner was taking up 4 seats as in your picture. I was well annoyed and did the British thing we do best. I looked out of my window, tutted silently to myself and seethed in my seat.

    Saw the worst and the best of the British public this morning. A young lad pushed past a lady just to get a seat on the train. Now, that really annoys me. And there was an elderly man who’s had a hip replacement who gave up his seat so that the lady could sit down. I said ‘you’re welcome’

    Large supermarket car park with loads of spaces. Park mine with plenty of spaces either side. Come back and the two spaces to the left are now filled with the driver of the car now next to me literally squeezing to get out of his car with his door nigh on touching mine. There’s still hundreds of fucking spaces available elsewhere and Mr Bright Spark thinks that the best place to park is in a bay which makes it difficult for him to get in and out of. Give me strength.

     I need to have room to get in and out of my car, as my replaced knee doesn't bend as much as I would like, I have arthritis in my ankles but don't qualify for a blue badge, so I always try to park away from others so I can get back into my car. 

    Car parks haven't kept pace with the size of cars these days and as I drive an ordinary hatchback, it's frustrating to be stuck between 2 SUVs that take up so much room.
