People who don’t dance. Boring fvckers. Appears my new girlfriend is one of them, which made for an awkward night of sitting around in a disco bar the other day.

People who go to disco bars.

The whole towels on sunbeds shitshow.

I came on holiday to relax

People who know what a disco bar is.

Hope you did'nt end up talking about Trump and other controversial subjects.

In old München?

Tight arse twats.

Adverts between every single over in the cricket.

Nathan Lyon

Smaller convenience stores don't like them as it makes them have to account for all their income rather than the tiny bit they declare and the VAT they charge but don't have to pay as "cash" is king.

Throw them all in the swimming pool. Go to the pool bar and watch the faces. Ive always wanted to do this.

People who tuck their ears under their baseball caps. Was watching a tv drama about WW2 the other day and a bloke playing a British army officer was doing it. Makes people look ESN.

I did this last summer, but didn't hang around to watch I just went back to bed. After about day 3 of me shifting towels people stopped doing it. Until the new arrivals came at the start of the second week & it happened again.

How did the new WI arrivals react?

They were getting the revenue before England collapsed and cost them a day's advertising money...

Wait for the road to be clear before reversing out or doing a maneuver. Basic rule and basic common decency - Ignored but so many. Twats!

We picked the beds up and moved them and replaced them with other beds, when people came and said they'd reserved the beds we just pointed at the ones we moved and said "No, you reserved THOSE beds"

The word “commonality”. What is wrong with “in common”?!

Also “learnings”. What is wrong with “lessons”?

The overuse of the word 'Narrative' by journo's and commentators these days.
"the narrative in the second half," etc. It's like they all bought a Thesaurus and decided to substitute dear old 'story.'

Absolutely.

I been learnings a lot today!

Worst staycation ever.

Football pundits' irony, e.g.

"Ironically, Everton face Palace on the opening day of the Premier League season".

Ironically? It is barely even coincidentally.

I miss Ray.

In my younger days, we were on a golf trip in Majorca. We arrived back at our hotel at 4am one morning and ALL the beds had towels on them ready for the morning.

One of our crowd was a bit slow on the uptake (alcohol induced) and when one of the lads quipped we should throw them in the pool (meaning towels) he proceeded to throw every sunbed into the pool. Great fun following morning :supergrin:

People massively misuse Irony. Here is George Carlin to explain:

Normally some wet blanket says in return ‘but language is always evolving’ ... yes it is but it doesnt mean people shouldnt point out that it’s wrong, otherwise it will evolve. ‘Literally’ is the used now for ‘it was almost like’ rather than it ‘actually was’

You are a ******* hero.

All it takes is one person every week to stop people doing it.

And football pundits especially so.

It is almost as if they do it deliberately, as some sort of "in" joke.

Small bar and Grills/restaurants that have live music when the band almost outnumber customers.

The band feel like they have to establish a rapport with the few people, and the few people feel obliged to appear interested in the band and applaud every song.

I just want to go and have something to eat and a couple of beers with my wife... if I wanted a band included I would buy tickets to a concert.

I know... I shouldn't go inside in the first place... but I like the food!

But you like the food, eh? What's the name of the place? Was it somewhere really nice?

Oh do elaborate...please.

I think you’ll find most footballers, and to a logical extent, most football pundits, are thick as shit.

Wilson Phillips again ?

They do a really nice Burnet Salad, it's a bit bitter, but I just add a pinch of salt...

I have talksh!te on most of the day for a bit of background interest. Double whammy this morning, not only is that twat Brazil on for another half hour but they're broadcasting live from the hamster's training ground. 10 mins walk up the road from me:(:jerkit:

We band members salute you...and if you didnt make such a noise chewing we wouldnt have to play so loudly.

I'm at a trampolining play area with my boy just sitting at the tables when some old woman with her granddaughter (who can't be older then 4)comes over, sits down and continues to tell her that "tomorrow you'll be in Cyprus" looking to catch someones attention (which she did) but I was as uninterested as the child going.

Very much like the "Molly Sugden" sketch in little Britain.

Update....
Grandson has come over and she has reminded him also...

Is she Puncheons mum?

:D
Dunno she was pretty narked off when she came out with "well of course I'm not going I'm only grandma"

HSBC & Barclays Banks. I want to open an account for my son. Barclays “we can book you an appt for next week” HSBC two cashiers filing nails. “We can’t do that speak to someone 0utside” queue. “Have you filled in your forms” yes. Got ID yes “ok it’s an hours wait” FFS no wonder these banks are being out manoeuvred by ones like Revolut Or Monzo

I thought of you when I posted that post. I have nothing against the band(s) as such, it's more the bar owners for having a band on a night they know will be slow. I guess you could argue that the owner is/or might be giving the band a chance to rehearse in public with little pressure, which is commendable, but maybe a little annoying for the patrons that are there (well me anyway).

Anyway, I like to think you only perform to larger crowds that actually want to hear you playing!

I've nothing against going to a packed bar or venue with a band, where you don't expect a personal relationship with the band or to be able to hold a decent conversation with friends or family.

The amount of Rossi stuff people are wearing and waving here at the Austrian MotoGP campsites. The gezzer is finished ffs:veryangry

All hail the mighty ANTt:p

Went to do the same thing Monday, went to Barclays and was asked if I had an account (which I did but closed) but the wife does(who's not with me at the time) so the assistant says it would take 30 mins with her present or an hour and a half with me.
So I left it but the wife found out through her banking app she can set up a video call to open their accounts.

Player signing/unveiling videos, If you've had the misfortune of watching the MacArthur McCarthy one you'll know why.

Bars have bands on quiet nights to try and turn them into busy nights.

Lawyers, who spend half their time telling you they're lawyers. F*cking bellends.

Good job they aren't vegans, they'd get nothing done at all then.

Being emailed a property “investment” of a new development being build that had the line. “Below market value” . What a load of bollocks.

First Direct.

Spot on mate. Been with them pretty much since they started. I love my bank:love:

people who say 'Happy Friday!!!!!!!'

Yep already with them but they don’t do accounts for 15 year olds. When I was in HSBC they asked if I had an account with them. My first direct debit card says I do but they said that doesn’t count. :(

NatWest is no better. Was a right pain in the arse opening my student bank account.

or indeed this

I've always found the casual Rossi followers over the past decade a bit peculiar, especially in this country. But then I realised they're the sort of people who only want to interact casually with sport and only if it provides them with a high quota of victory (a la Barcelona, Brazil, Manchester City, Federer etc) And that annoys me.

Who are part of HSBC but the service is second to none

I never got offered the second option when I was a student.....I ended up with Barclays student account haha

Writing a lengthy post on my mobile only for the page to not load after pressing submit, then pressing back after trying reload several times for the posts to have vanished. This has been happening more often recently. Will have to copy the entire text now before pressing to avoid this.

I opened my Nat West account in 1971 when I left school and started a temp job just before I went to Polytechnic. I banked with them and had my mortgage with them for 40 years until my world disintegrated. Then they couldn't wait to close me down, and get a county court judgment against me by re-inventing an unsecured loan with a charge on the property just before re-possessing it. Bunch of c unts

FH Man, that's bad. Sorry to hear this :frown:

My wife got a Metro account. Seems fine as well

Explaining for the 100th time that the reason I follow Owen Shroyer on twitter is in the hope that he posts a video of someone punching him in his f**king face!

The latest spate of betting adverts. Tipping point approaching.

The phrase: rinse and repeat, started to be used as a throwaway negative remark.

Also wank slogans like: eat, sleep, train, repeat.

Did I see somewhere that they’ve banned them from advertising on TV during sporting events or have I imagined that ?

People who say this could be a "cricket score" when a team is getting thrashed.

Are they going to lose 184-0 ?

Could work if it’s an England innings. Possible to lose 26-8

Football clubs that shut for the summer then fail to upgrade I.T. In time for tills systems to work properly and have water pouring through the ceiling for the first game. What a shambles. Oh and give me a ******* lid for my water. If people can have 6 foot flag poles, megaphones, coins, lighters and keys, how can a lid be dangerous!

I’m sure the lid removal is to stop you having a full, sealed bottle of water that can be thrown. I full agree with you, though.

Car drivers who still pull out onto oncoming motorbikes/mopeds.

I don’t think it’s because the lid itself is dangerous!

The theory I’ve heard is that a full bottle of water secured by its lid can be a painful missile if thrown eg on fans below. Whereas if the lid is removed and then the bottle is thrown, most of the contents spill out mid air and people just get wet rather than hurt.

Whether there has ever been an incident to prove this, I don’t know.

It really annoys me too, especially when you’re in seats with so little leg room that it’s easy to kick over a bottle. It’s also a nuisance if you have kids who are trying to juggle an open bottle.

At the Spurs match the guy behind kicked his cola over, so we sat with our shoes in a sticky flood. Then a bloke walked past and spilled half the contents of his open bottle of water on me and then it snowed on us!

The use of ‘merchant’ to diminish any footballer’s strength. Tap in merchant, tackle merchant, dribble merchant etc etc

Or moped riders who pull out of roads, at speed, into traffic that has the right of way.

The Northern invasion of London. Every other mobile call you’re forced to overhear on public transport seems to be being made by an Eeey-Ooop merchant.
And boy, are they trying hard to be noticed.

Richard Gere. He was sticking his oar in on a ship that rescues migrants from the Mediterranean. Saying that Italy etc. should take them in. ( I don't disagree)
Perhaps if he was to put his hand in his pocket and pay for the upkeep of these people at least till they find work.
No, he needs his millions more.

People who are too lazy to use a pedestrian crossing

Yes, ridiculously over paid celebrities telling the rest of us to ‘dig deep’ and give to good causes.

Yep.... didn’t Gary Barlow ask us to donate to Children In Need a few years ago, only for it to come out a few weeks later he had signed up to a tax avoidance loophole?

I see most celebrities/footballers like the models from the film Zoolander... you know the ones that had a water fight with petrol... extremely dim... and lacking in self awareness.

Same at the O2. I always keep a spare lid handy - easy to take in in a pocket/in a sock.

Not the same at all grounds, though, which makes it even more ludicrous.

I once managed to smuggle a spare lid in, think it was the O2 or maybe Wembley, and was so disappointed when my act of rebellion failed as the lid didn’t fit! I thought the same cap fitted the same size bottle, but no. :veryangry

Weird they don't give you a lid if you buy one in the ground, as to take a drink in that you bought outside, the lid has to be on and sealed (assuming the rules are still the same this season, i didnt go on saturday).

If I see another “unpopular opinion” on twitter.:wallbash:

The move to 'Urban' culture as being the mainstream way of marketing products and lifestyle.

Fully agree. I remember Mark Steel writing about this in the Independent some years ago. Bono of U2 was in Africa visiting a small village who needed a well built - he said all they need is £2k to give them clean water. The cheeky cunit was asking the general public to donate..

These so called celebs who have no talent at all except to want to fall in love in a villa only to split up before the plane hits the tarmac at gatwick.

People who get upset with celebrities asking us to give to charity.

How do you know they don't donate themselves? Are you annoyed at them not giving away all their wealth, or being rich? The celebrities concerned are certainly giving up a lot of their own time to help the causes, which does cost them money as well. And if it generates more money for the causes then to my mind its been a worthwhile use of their time, and no skin off my nose.

People do listen to the people they idolise, and if someone has fame what better use of that fame than to try to persuade other people to spend money on good causes, rather than any other old stuff.

If it seems hyprocritical... then maybe worth a rethink on what you'd do given their fame or wealth.

Anyone going on about the JANUARY transfer window already!! FFS give it a rest for a few months :grrr:

People who moan about people who get upset with celebrities asking us to give to charity.

Have Sky started their next countdown.

Jim White is currently in a ‘decompression chamber’ and should be ready to ‘go again’ next Monday.

Wankers who get on trains/tubes/DLR etc. and don't have the self-awareness or presence of mind to take off their rucksack.

People, mainly but not exclusively women, with 'shoulder bags' so big they might just as well be rucksacks.

Men wearing bum bags around their shoulders.
Wtf do they keep in them?!

The Booking.com ad.
The one with the bloke having fun racing down a winding path in his wheelchair.
I note that they don't show the 'fun' he had hauling himself back up.

The advert with the two hopeless mingers who pull in to a drive in on their way back from a trip and then state it's good to be home as if McDonalds is only available in the UK. As if you'd go eating that shit anyway. Bastards.

KY Jelly and poppers.

That our society has become so PC that everyones offended by something

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-49332640

I thought the phili advert was funny and NEVER thought it encouraged steroetypes. If it had been women they would have moaned as it was then sexist.

The other one 3 people complained and it was banned. We are turning into a PC mad country.

Having a bad day today. I’m now pissed off at the hysteria about having women reffing the supercup final. I don’t give a monkeys if they are male, female, trans, gender neutral or an alien as long as they do a decent job.
