Back to your point, the approach pub has a fair few poncy wearing idiots in there aswell!

Haha, you're spot on. I was in there a few weeks ago and these mongs pop up all over the place.

I find that if you move your mouse over the 'Forum' option at the very top it takes the text away.

Getting up at 6 in the morning.

Getting up at 6 in the morning.....

.....because the smoke alarm started going ape, quickly followed by the house alarm.

Still going now.

Don't know how to stop it.

It's loud.

The stupid cordless phone in my house. You get a call on it and it only rings for 3 rings before going into messages and you can't adjust the length. When it rings I dash out to the hall table where the phone is supposed to be but it has been left in some other room cos someone never put it back on the base. Here's the best bit,... the ringing is coming from the base NOT from the hand set so we have no way of finding the hand set even if it's a foot away from you cos it doesn't bloody ring, it's only the base in the hall that rings ffs who thought up this crap.

1. Remove battery
2. If it's hard wired then remove fuse/turn off circuit breaker
3. Hammer

Getting too old and not being able to handle drinking on a school night - I'm suffering this morning, nothing is breaking my fuzzy head

1. Remove battery Check. Still going off.
2. If it's hard wired then remove fuse/turn off circuit breaker Check. Eventually went off.
3. Hammer I'm an idiot. Called electrician instead. Started going off again. Sorry Sendô. I'll go and get my hammer. It is very loud.

You need fresh air and sex, although not necessarilly at the same time.

Restaurants serving me my food on a bread board.

A kid you not, a ****ing long, thin bread board.

What the suffering **** is all that about?

Has anyone on here ever eaten their dinner off of a bread board at home? Around a friend's house? So why do restaurants do it? What's wrong with plates all of a sudden? I only want a burger and some chips. Wimpy do it on plates. McDonald's do it in a brown bag. Why do restaurants feel the need to ponse it up?

I've noticed this aswell. Stayed at the Four Seasons in Dublin once and ordered a cheese toastie, or whatever their ponsey name for it was with chips. It came out on a bread board. A cheese toastie! To be fair though, it was the nicest cheese toastie I have ever had!

[Dover KUMB fan]

A bit like those places that serve your dinner on a slate roof tile????
WTF is that about??

Style over substance, I think you'd call it

When I go for something to eat, I want substance first and foremost. I'd rather have something that tastes great, but doesn't look all that, than something that leaves you unsatisfied

I don't want to marvel at their poncy artistic nature, or their presentation skills. If I wanted that, I'd go and hang out in a florists...
