The Daily F**king Mail and its website.

Never has a site perpetuated body shaming, right wing agendas and celebrity culture. Worst of all they seem to be acting as Isis press office, every sick video they release the Mail instantly puts on their site to give more attention to these people.
For the sake of your health, I'd avoid it then!

At least you aren't made to visit it, or pay for it.

People who answer their phone while being served in a shop. I was stood behind a woman in Asda the other day (yes, I know, but I like their CYO topping pizza`s ...) who answered her phone twice while ordering her pizza. I was not happy.

anyone phoning into the radio. wishing to do long thank you's, or shout outs.

Especially on simon mayo's show and as part of the R2 music quiz. Just answer the feckin questions, I'll see how many I can't get: but I don't care you are a decorator on the long term sick, with loads of children and a million people to say Hi too.



with the weird exception of people phoning into 6 music. They seem to be much more intelligent.

6 music is the only non-council music station, except Radio 3. Even Classic FM is council. This would explain it.

Marketing emails on behalf of a company I would never buy from that have a spelling mistake in the first sentence.
Very poor Citroen

c+p from the email

Dear Andrew,

To say werre proud to reveal the New C4 Picasso and Grand C4 Picasso would be an understatement. Designed with style and your comfort in mind, both have raised the bar once again in the MPV sector.

OP should go and buy a lottery ticket!!!

Any thread which suggests the OP might have had more than his fair share of luck avoiding a ban/taken to the cleaners by his ex/ death is accompanied by the damn phrase, even though the odds of winning the lottery are hugely less than being let of a bloody speeding charge.

I may be well out on my own but I cannot listen to someone telling me a phone number (for example) if they don't read it out as I would.

i.e. I would read the number 720363 as 720 363
Drives me mad if someone quotes a number and reads it as 72 03 63...

Even worse are credit card numbers read back over the phone - they need to be in groups of 4....
Agreed smile

Agree. What did the Romans ever do for us?

Well I wouldn't have minded if I could even find one of those anywhere!

And to be fair,there is an AWFUL lot of stuff about the Rom and and God.

The Nuns are not too bad. Its the grinning evangelical American groups,all smiles,teeth and matching t-shirts that can irritate. They move through a crowd like the crablogger through a forest. *

I hate his show on a Friday where it consists of people calling in to tell the world where they are going to, what road they are on and what their plans are for the weekend.

I don't care why Sheila, Nigel and the kids are on the M6 and have another 3hours drive until they get to Uncle Bills birthday party.

I've never once thought on a long journey, I must call Simon Mayo's radio show to let him and his listeners know where I'm going, they will be really interested.

I listen to Radio 5 on the way home on Fridays now!
