Today I'm angry about.....

Sale of goods act. Purchases must be fit for purpose. Extended warranty = rip off.

Indeed and thats partly why I never take one. Though it is a bit of a murky business. What defines FFP and how its measured is always a vague situation!

Richard ‘im a c unt’ Arnold!

I'm not a violent person, but I think I'd become one for a few minutes if I ever met that c*nt in real life.

I cannot foooooking stand it!

I always put bbc on when I awaken, but as soon as im up getting ready she switches to itv!?

i can hear the dross warbling on in the background while im brushing my teeth n'that, then when I return to put me socks on I find myself watching... like a 13 year old girl who wanted to be a glamour model being interviewed by Andrew Castle - and her big fat dobber mum was there on the sofa too saying she is supporting her and is saving her dole money to pay for her daughter to have a boob job!

Then I snap out of it, grumble to myself and storm off shaking my head at how fukking shit this programme is and what sort of people could possibly ever watch it!

And… I hate all the presenters, especially Ben Sh!thead & that Richard ‘im a c unt’ Arnold!

See General, you should run your home like an old-fashoned pub; seperate rooms for things, snug, lounge and tap room etc. Lots of people around me have knocked connecting walls down in a bid to make their lounges look big and spacious. Means those in there have to watch what others watch or be forever arguing. I'm for the two rooms seperate; that way the wife watches all her crap and I get away from it all. Tele, pc and music centre are all around me and the 'jungle, Big Brother and X Factor, Strictly malarky can fxxk right off. Don't get wrong ideas; it's a semi in Farnworth, not a mansion, but it suits me fine.

you scamp General!

I saw what he did there Bish, but with a dozen scantily clad good-looking women on view, he watches it, believe me.

Now if we could only get them to stop using that quatre-vingt-dix-neuf nonsense for 99.

Indeed, that and seize-cent-soixante-quatre for Kronenbourg!

That is the Anglacised version, Brucie!

[Prufrock]

Shop assistants who say in a mildly threatening and up close manner, "can I help you?" as soon as you set foot in their shop. Roughly translated as, "if you're not spending any money in here, f**k off"

And if I see that sodding "do you dream in chocolate?" ad on TV again...

Bit harsh to hate the shop assistants themselves! It's fecking management who are OBSESSED with it. When I worked at JD, they had signs up saying 'customers must be attended to within 9 seconds of entering the shop'. Or fecking what? Whenever the local managers came in we'd all suddenly get told to make sure we were 'serving people' coz the managers were coming in. Once asked the store manger why, as I felt like a massive nice person going up to somebody who was CLEARLY just browsing and annoying them. Not only that, if they said they were fine, we had to tell them we were there for them if they needed anything.

Feckers don't understand you when you say Kronenbourg. Serves 'em right for naming them all so badly. Stella Artois isn't french, but Kronenbourg is. Confusing. Also, do we get the red one, the less strong than the 1669 one here?

[Lord Kangana]

Its all that Alsace Lorraine malarky, now Bas and Haute Rhin. The Germans get everywhere. I even found out there is a German speaking enclave on the Volga. How weird (nowt to do with WW2, either.)

On the Volga? How the dickens did that happen if not due to the war then?

Que? It sounds French to me!

And another thing. People in shops asking the person behind the counter "Can I get a (latte, book on bee-keeping, whack in the chops etc) rather than asking "Please may I have....? or saying "I'd like....". No, you can't 'get' anything. Where the feck do you think you are?

Add people, who f*ck up the answer to the simple question "Do you mind if...?"

I get on the bus this evening, and say to a fellow sat down, "do you mind if I sit next to you?" to which he replies, "Yes", before moving aside. Que?!

That's because Londoners are c*nts

Today I'm just angry. Nothing in particular provoking it, just anger.

[bobo the clown]

Fckg volume on TV.

How it leaps & varies between programmes. How in films it ranges from so quiet I think I'm going deaf, to, in action shots particularly, so loud it almost manages to make me deaf. Then when adverts come on the sound levels increase by about 50%.

I spend the night constantly tweaking the volume controls. So fckg annoying.


By the way, while I'm on about it, is it just me or is there a slight delay between sound and vision on digital TV, so mouths open & close about half a second before the actual sound ?

I'm with you on this one Bish - Especially the adverts. I've left the room when they're on because I don't want to hear them.

Not noticed any synch problems with digital.

I find the mute button a blessing during adverts and then peruse ceefax until they've gone away. That's the best way to preserve ears!

that was bobo - but I agree (if it helps) - unfortunately this kind of anger is a sure sign of getting old!

I always mute for the ads - at first I amused the kids by providing alternative comedy dialogue for the ads - but now it just irritates the feck out of them* (which is another reason for doing it!)

(though I have heard THEM doing while I am not there!)

I thought it was only your boss who could do things like that.

Your mistake Pru. You paid your fare, you don't have to ask permission. I admire your manners, but some fxxkers have none. I just say "Move over mate ". Don't have to be nasty about it, but make the point. Oh, and add to the list women who take a seat for their shopping bags when people are stood up.
