Little things that irritate you

Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

Mrs RR's hairdressers refused to serve her after she used the immortal "do you know who I am?". In fact most of the bars/restaurants/pub proprietors around here have told Towie producers to do one as they don't want to be associated with it or the vacuous parasites that appear on that ****hole of a TV programme.
Her on/off boyfriend who thinks he's Harry Connick Jr is just as bad. I just wish they'd eat themselves into a coma.
I still remember her on stage on some music awards show when she fell through a trapdoor.. :lol:

Recently back in the UK for a project at LCY.
Was paying a reasonable £65 a night for a newish hotel close to the airport. Not a great area but 5 mins walk to work so all good.
As there is the big international arms Expo at the Excell this week all the hotels have increased their prices to a level that can only be described as criminal.

My hotel wanted £320 a night and places like the Holiday Inn Express and Premier Inn were charging £500 a night.
There was nothing available at a realistic rate, even as far out as QE2 bridge and Peckham.
Last 2 nights I’ve ended up in the Ibis cheapo in Walthamstow and they still wanted £120 a night
Outright extracting of Urine by the Hotel industry.

Just to get me even closer to the spree killing………………

When trying to get a cab from the hotel to Stratford DLR in the mornings have been told by all the local companies that the £10 fare is not worth their while and they wouldn’t cover the job. They were however prepared to take me to LCY for £28.

'Multicultural London English'.
Strange that something that's supposed to be so cool, makes people that use it, sound like utter c*nts. Especially when it's white kids talking it.
Is it..

Somebody called Jesy Nelson. Ah diddums.
Don't go on social media to read about yourself, you'll be much happier. You've literally grown up with social media, you know how it works & what it's like.
What did you want to read? How wonderful & talented you are? Or how hard working you are & how you deserve all that money & fame?

Given your contribution on the mental health thread Samba, I'm surprised by this comment.

Their English Breakfast tea is the best around. The coffee is woeful though.

Mate, as much as she is a bit annoying, and is definitely "4th placed" in that group, you can't help but feel for her a bit. The pressure on these sorts of people to look the right way must be immense, and to see on twitter, facebook and so on that people are digging you out for the things that you're most self-conscious about must be difficult.

I'm not pleased that she got this abuse & it's not right that she did, SH.
The reality is, if you put yourself in the public eye, you kind of, have to expect it. I've met the general public, they're horrible. There's a lot of unhappy, angry people out there & for many of them, the only 'joy' they get in their unhappy, unfulfilled, angry lives is by trying to make other people, feel at the very least, as unhappy as they themselves are. Unless it's breaking the law, people are free to say what they want, however nasty & vile that it may be. It actually says far more about them than it ever does about their target.
Look at the utter dogs abuse that Jermaine Jenas gets as a pundit.
Her record company/management should have told her right from the start, "look, it isn't right but it's not going to ever be a good idea for you to read your own social media".
