I don't like twee cutesy breed nicknames for dogs like Rottie, Staffie, Westie etc. It's a Rotweiler, not a fking Rottie.

people who apply the yellow stuck on signs, with Australian messages on:

such as "kangaroos next 200km" etc, in their vehicles.

Wow, you went to Australia.


now this really bothers me, but my anger has gone to another level, with some new neighbours on my street.

Firstly he has a beard

secondly they have a skoda------not a bad car, but a skoda roomster.

and finally, the aforementioned yellow australian warning sign, hanging in their hallway window.

really I find this so unforgiveable, I want to put their windows through.

My only joy is that they are only renting, so I am surmising they will be moving out soon and taking said signs with them.

and his beard.

and the roomster.

It's 'Rottweiler'. And an entry on the 'Spelling Police' thread.

If Richard Rawlings shook hands with Mike Brewer, would it be like two immovable objects colliding?

People who for some unknown reason are unable to do anything unless they do a film / video blog - WTF

Though it can have funny consequences...

German speakers (or any non English speakers) who whilst conversing in their native tongue throw in some English sayings or sentences.

fk off! Stick that in your pretentious willy waving contest.

Two middle managers trying to out-clever each other.
They just sounded sad.

Driving home this evening, I got stuck behind a slow cyclist and had to drive at 12mph for about 300 yds until I could safely overtake. No big deal, but the fact that the pavement she was cycling next to had a dedicated cycle lane on it (Coronation Road, Bristol) which is very well sign posted. It really annoyed me.

Not like me at all. I think it was because I hadn't eaten for ages.

the Germans love that, especially the management types as you say, the latest fashionable one was 'ststorm', even Angela Merkel using it

stay classy, Germans

Macarons
Macaroons?

They're awesome! lick
I have no problem with macaroons as a foodstuff, I just can't bear it when people call them macarons and elevate them to a trendy "thing of the moment".

I will admit I prefer a coconut macaroon to a colourful shell of fancy stuff.



Ay!


I thought these were macaroonsconfusedconfused
exhibit a: 'macaroon'

your colourful french things: 'macaron'

Macaroni is something else again
Exhibit D.


These are the ones I love.

Postman Pat

Used to love it as a kid, now they've wrecked it by turning Pat into a hapless hero.

Every bloody episode he cocks up, arrives late and/or items being delivered are damaged, yet he is almost worshipped for saving the situation he himself bloody created. Although he doesn't really save the situation as he arrives late, special delivery my arse!

Another example from yesterday:-

Rev - "Pat should have been here by now"
Not sure of name "Don't worry Pat will be here on time"

Now, he is late according to the Rev, but deluded 'not sure of name' is convinced that he will be on time, even though he's late! Grrrr Is Pat a leader of a cult? And everyone (bar Rev) is under his spell?

Winds me up everyday before work, so much so I might have to stop watching with Murdoch Jnr. It can't be good for him hearing me curse the way through every bleedin episode!

Its 8:50 Pat is efficient so he is usually early so he should have been there by now. However the delivey does not have to be made until 9:00 so he has 10 mins to make up time and get there on time.

What you lot are all forgetting is coconut is in fact recycled bogroll rather than food.

Don't get me started on the "new" Fireman Sam - The child, Norman Price, should clearly be sectioned or given electro-shock therapy or something as just about every mishap has something to do with him starting a fire or something....
