Pointless film reboots.

Latest is Ocean's 11, which is a reboot of a reboot with Sandra Bullock in the lead role.

Bound to be rubbish; Sandra Bullock looks nothing like Frank Sinatra.

Legs 11. I for one cannot wait to see this on Channel 5 in about 7 years.

The BBC's inconsistency when it comes to QI XL - first two episodes of the new series of QI shown on Friday, with the XL edition shown on Saturday. This week - with no announcement or explanation - no XL episode

Halloween. Biggest load of absolute fking ste ever. It's the same fking crap every year. It makes as much sense to me as religion i.e. NO sense at all! I just want a NORMAL weekend. I don't want it to be fked up with all this "Halloween Special" crap! I've tried to get into it but I just can't. It's a load of fking st!

Facebook during Rugby games when you have no interest in Rugby.

"Did you see that?! That thing that you're not watching. Did you see what just happened? I couldn't believe it!"

Click... Hide.

It works fine for me.

Person - "....blah, blah, blah...........oh can add you to my Facebook?"
Me - "Yeah if you want to"

5-10 minutes later

Person - "I can't find you on Facebook"
Me - "That's because I'm not on there"
Person - "..............."

Bin Men.

Does that mean males who have been masculine, or what.

Katlyn Jenner...

Bin person, surely? Not sure militant feminism stretches to Binpeople - never seen a female doing this though, so why the lack of clamour?

I've seen a woman driving the bin wagon, presumably she got out and shifted a bin from time to time if only for a change of pace.

People who constantly use Instagram filters on their photos to try and make up for the fact that their photos are st and that they are completely and utterly useless, fking st photographers!

And there's a woman that works at the local council tip as well. She wears a yellow hi-vis over a t shirt and has the same number of tattoos on her arms as her (well tanned it has to be said) male colleagues. Now along with the bric a brac such as radios, armchairs, fridge, golf clubs etc that the 'lads' have sequestered and enjoy during those quiet periods on summer days, there's a collection of chucked-out cuddly toys placed on the wall as you exit the tip.

Well, specifically the fact that when I click on a link to a YouTube vid, a pop up appears asking me if I want to open it in YouTube!!

Well yes - obviously!! The link says YouTube in it! I've clicked on it so I can watch a YouTube video! Stop asking me stupid questions!!!

I realise it's because its jumping from web to app but it's bloody annoying!!

[Calletrece]

I imagine it's been mentioned but nannyware.

Specifically on Samsung phones. You can't raise the volume without having to dismiss a notification that states something like "listening at loud volumes can damage your hearing".

Made even more infuriating by the fact the phone has volume buttons on the side...which won't move past the notification. Argh.

Ineffectual hand dryers. No excuse

The Dyson 'Blade' dries very well...It removes your skin...

They are a pain in the rear if you are trying to dry a toddler or a midget though.

Adobe Reader DC.

What a huge pile of useless st foisted on us as an "update". No thumbnail previews, stupid UI and even more screen real estate taken up by stupid default screen layout options.

Uninstalled and back to XI.

How about calling them "bin tts"... Thats what they are after all.

The tip near where I used to live used to have dozens of cuddly toys too...but nary a woman in sight! Perhaps the binme werent so macho after all

Reading on a regular basis about the filthy habits of travelling scum:

The filth and subsequent clean up costs is down to the riff-raff. Seems the thefts may just have been coincidence!!!
