Today I'm angry about.....
Moderator: Zulus Thousand of em
Just watched some TV programme called 'Binge Drinking: My Problem' or somesuch. Yet again some kids are all bastards agenda. A scrotty teenager snarling and sniping and calling everything rubbish while her ADULT mother sobs on camera about how its so hard and I quote 'She'e out till three every weekend and I can't stop her'. Your her bloody mother you daft bitch. Followed up with 'I don't want to live in the same house as someone who hates me'. Jesus wept. Then some expert comes on saying how she understands the problems parents face when they feel they can't say no. Thats their f*cking job. The parents are portrayed as tortured souls whilst the children, that's right, children are portrayed as heartless evil robots. F*ck me.

Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind.

Was the noun 'bottle' pronounced as 'bockull' on this programme by any chance? I didn't see it, but I bet that it was.Prufrock wrote:Just watched some TV programme called 'Binge Drinking: My Problem' or somesuch. Yet again some kids are all bastards agenda.

It was indeedy actually. Funny you could guess. The next scene was the mother doing an abseil then the kid not, which was swiftly followed by the mother, that's right, the adult, breaking down in tears about how the kid was unruly, because, apparently, you say yes to everything your impulsive hormonal CHILD asks for for just fourteen years and they turn out, pffft, you'll never guess, but they actually turn out expecting their own way all the time. And that, no matter what anyone says, that cannot possibly be seen as being your fault!Bruce Rioja wrote:Was the noun 'bottle' pronounced as 'bockull' on this programme by any chance?

Can't find much to argue with there Brucie - not that it'd do me any good, it's your list. I'm marginally perplexed by Vijay Singh, because whereas all the others are noted for opening their gobs and generally uttering crap, I'm struggling to recall Vijay Singh saying much at all about anything.Bruce Rioja wrote:I'll give you a list here of people that I absolutely detest, despite having never met them.

Today I'm angry about the silly cow who, after driving the wrong way down my one way street as I was tidying the garden, proceeded to hurl abuse at the driver going the legal way because he was blocking her way. It had taken me the best part of two hours to get the Kebabling down for her afternoon nap for some reason, so this was just what wasn't needed. The one thing stopping me from getting too angry about it was the riposte that came from a builder when asked by the daft cow "what are you lookin' at?". Simple - "a blind driver with a mouth like a sewer".
It took the best part of ten minutes before she eventually backed down after my neighbour got through to the police to tell her that someone had driven unlawfully down a one way street, and if they wanted to see the evidence all they needed to do was turn up to the street.
What else is going to make me angry is the inevitable reply from someone on here who will counter that there seems to be so many perfect drivers use this board. Well, if by perfect you mean "lawful and sensible", bang to rights. It's a big feck off piece of metal that goes at deadly speeds. If you can't be focused when driving it, you don't deserve to be on the road.

Seeing as we're on driving, people think supermarket carparks are national speed limit. They aren't. And also people who brake incredibly late on sideroads to the road you are driving on. You may have ceramic discs all round, but really, do you have to test them every where you go? I nearly have heart failure about five times day when some bell end does that.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

This is going to sound like a 'back in my day' at the age of 23, but here goes:
Mobile phones.
Not mobiles in general - just there effect on shop products.
You used to be able to buy chocolate bars/drinks/crisps etc. with a 'look inside to see if you've won.'
Now it's just 'look inside to find a number to text to us at extortinate rates.'
As a kid, it was always exciting to open something and see if you've got a free chocolate bar/£5, or whatever else they were giving away.
And now that just doesn't happen any more.

Tonight I'm angry about Premiership football's media coverage.
Tonight's Match Of The Day has tipped me over the edge, they've really excelled themselves this season. After Jamie Carragher's given the "ooh, it's so nice to see him back as long as three days after a knock of heads rendered him slightly headached" eulogy, Torres has slight clash of heads, and the next couple of minutes is taken up with footage as if he's given the Princess Di treatment. "He's been given nine stitches, and it looks like he might be developing a black eye", says Jonathan Pearce solemnly. Then, after the match, an interview with Rafa Benitez, whose job has apparently been under scrutiny because he lost a match. Yes, a match.
"Is it easy to, well, live and exist under the pressure of your job, knowing that their might be someone to replace you any day?"
Must be hard to "live and exist" in a job you're paid £6 million a year to do that other people do earning much less and in much more difficult circumstances. How does he "live and exist" in a job where someone else picks up the kit from the launderette, organises and delivers training while he barks from the sidelines, does the warm up, negotiates contract and transfer fees, gets sponsorship in, and does the scouting of opponents for him? Premiership management is a difficult job, but "struggle to live and exist"? Bore off.
Then, just to prove the pandering towards Big Clubs, the next thing said?
"Birmingham v Portsmouth - not what we really want to watch, but......."
Is it any wonder everyone thinks football is shit?

And I'd have them up there with Nightmares On Wax, LFO, AC Temple and The Happy Mondays as the 'up North stuff' we gave a feck about down here in the middle near the end of the 80s.
Still, £80 for an album that's been re-issued three times since seems excessive.
Yes it is, but his review consists of having a go at an album which you can get in the shop for a tenner. And considering he probably got a freee promo copy, to baulk at the price as 'elitist' and then write such an elitist piece of shite is a bit rubbish for me.KeeeeeeeBaaaaaaab wrote:Verbal wrote:this reviewShows he didn't get it.

Music journalists for you. Unless the price is unrealistically excessive, they won't write about it. However, it's only shit if it's popular. Unless you championed the artist. Remember Q's assertion that the Arctic Monkey's debut was the 6th greatest album of ALL TIME, three months after it was released?Verbal wrote:Yes it is, but his review consists of having a go at an album which you can get in the shop for a tenner.

They're too popular for it to be considered good now. They tried too hard to get the second album released too quickly, and it got slated because they'd already headline a night at Glasto. If they had a 20-year hiatus before releasing it, or for that matter headlining Glasto they'd have their a-holes gaping by the frenzy of sycophantic bumming.Verbal wrote::lol didn't know that.
