Little things that irritate you

Even if you purposely avoid said establishment, you can still here that ****ing song.

She clearly has no idea what she is singing about too as if you were to ask for a drink she would just say "que?"
I like that song.

So, if that girl I know, who has form for having absolutely nothing interesting or remotely non-mainstream to say, pipes up and says, on Facebook for example:

"Beyonce is the best singer of the last 20 years. She is totes amaze!!! lol"

Then I reply "What about Mike Patton?"

Then she replies "Who? Must be crap lol lol"

It's not logical for me to want to cave the front of her skull in?

:lol:

I'd want to cave her skull in just for the over use of lol.

Yes it can always be worse and we are lucky to be born in the civilised western world that we have been but............. These idiots would be lying in a ditch skull ****ed to death in most countries they are that clueless and moronic.

I'm with you on this one Rars.

RARS, I have to question why that person has any means with which to communicate with you.

Pre-emptive measures to avoid bloodlust are needed. How can you be expected to act reasonably when you expose yourself to such vacuity.

Of course, FJ, I understand and agree.

But the above was a bit of an exaggerated example, but we all have friends - who's pros outweigh their cons considerably - who are capable of similar.

All of my friends teeter on the edge to be honest mate. Bunch of c**** really. I'd say its roughly,

Most people 75% con - 25% pro.

My friends 55% con - 45% pro.

There are many fine margins and subtle levels.

Nope.
This is not one person in question.

But, take a girl who is my friend.
She's my friend because she's good company, intelligent and easy going and very friendly.

But, her likes, opinions, taste in stuff - aren't worth a sh*t.
Middle of the road, boring, sanitised dross, chucked in with loads of xxxxxxxs and loads of lols yays and whoops etc

When I'm with her, she's as good as gold. When I see the stuff she writes, I wish to end her.


I think my exposure to written media and opinion, mainly manifesting itself on social media sites, is the problem here.

Steps.

It's bad enough that a **** cheesy band is manufacturing a "comeback" but it's even worse that there's a ****ing programme charting their "progress" (arguing) that I have to watch.

Harlow Hammer wrote:"Hi, I'm after a ticket for the home leg and Final if we get there, anyone got any spare.

Although I haven't been for 30 years I watch the results come in on Soccer Saturday and record the Football League show every weekend. I also take part in forum discussion of games I have never been to and slag the team off.

I really am a big West Ham fan, although I couldn't be bother to go when we getting relegated last year or any other season that we was doing bad.

But seeing as we are in a semi final and possible a final thought I might as well go."

Does this annoy anyone else. The number of people I have had ring me up and ask if I can get a ticket for them for the home leg and if we get to the final maybe a ticket for them. This was the same with the FA Cup final and previous Play off finals etc.

The sob stories I hear as to why people haven't been for ages etc really annoy me as they try to justify what a great support they are.

I've made sacrifices to afford the ST, in the off chance we get to a final, then I get a ticket. People may have genuine reasons but most really annoy me.

And no I haven't any spares!!!!
You need to get in the "I hate plastics thread" :wink:

Have a mate who's exactly the same as the example as you just have, hadn't been all season got a ticket on the off chance for Brighton and now wants to go Wembley as soon as we've won a game, he didn't want to know when we had that run of draws in late Feb/early March

If I could grow a full f*** off beard I would. It would be immense. Like a norse god...a 25yr old norse god who is 5' 7" and commutes via dlr to a desk job everyday.

Jobseekers.

How is it that every doley, professional scrounger, teenage slag, asylum seeker etc is entitled to it despite never having worked a day in their pathetic lives and yet the missus who has worked since she was 16 and has only struggled the last 2 years due to the recession is now not entitled to it after her latest lay off because she "hasn't worked enough in the last 2 years"?

The law seems to be if you are going to get laid off make sure you've not only been there 6 months.
