"Coming up in tonights show"

"Previously on Lost/ER/Deadliest Catch/Big Brother"

I don't need to know what's coming up - I'll find out when I fking watch the fking programme what's in tonights show.

I can also remember what happened last week. I'm not a retard.
Its even worse when you've recorded the programme and have fast forwarded the ads, because you then get what's coming up/what happened previously before the break right next to each other!

I hate banter between newsreaders or newsreaders/weather reporters. Just get on with it, neither of you are sincere or funny.

Weather reports that tell you what the weather was already like earlier today. I know, I already got soaked in the rain you are now telling me about.

I don't see anywhere where you can select left or right. Surely one would need to alternate to avoid unsightly tan lines that might lead to teasing amongst ones bender mates.

Pointless repetitive threads in general gassing. Every fking week there are arguments about, HGV's, Diesel cars, what cars, why is it beyond the wit of most people to A make a decision, B accept people may actually like diesels, and C drive their fking car with a bit of awareness and stop winning like little fking girls because some cut them up.shout

Oh yes And when you point it out to them they react like you are some sort of OCD freak.

But I think this is in the wrong thread because its not 'beyond reason'
You are a freak. Show me some evidence that anyone has ever caught anything from this ever. You're just being pathetic about 'germs'. Man up and stop whinging.
So, if you're in the pub, you're happy for the barman to re-use an empty pint glass that has just been put back on the bar (assuming it's refilled with the same drink)

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

I saw this. And a note appeared on the page claiming that 177 people per hour had seen this.
One of the very few occasions that I'm glad my internet connection is so slow. Saw the title bar of the web page and managed to close the page before any images came up! smile

On the subject of DIY, I've just heard Lily Allen's latest 'work' on the radio. Surely someone local to her has a nail gun and a spare five minutes?

"Nah nah, nah nah nah nah,
Nah nah, nah nah nah."
Well I only live a mile or two away from her and I'm not back at work until next week. No nail gun though.
Got a cricket bat in the shed that might do the job.scratchchin

People who feel the need to toot their horn to say goodbye.My neighbours family do this all the time, and its a minor thing but for some reason annoys me!

So said visitors have obviously said their goodbyes in person before leaving the house. So the house owner is aware they have left and most likely shut the door behind them.

So why do the visitors insist after they get in the car to toot numerous times as they disappear up the street? THEY KNOW YOU'VE LEFT, THEY SEEN YOU LEAVING THE HOUSE! Sometimes their still honking halfway up the street! And mine is a long street. I just don't get it, what's the point?

Trendy DJ's on the radio that like to emphasize WORDS and random in sentences TO make it sound like the band THEY are talking ABOUT is the MOST important thing since the last coming of Christ. They will then go on to wax lyrical about the bands LATEST tune and how not only are the band the greatest thing since the last coming of Christ, but this PARTICULAR song is so good all songs sung prior to this great event have been rendered obsolete.

Exactly the same, of course. I have a few minutes to spare so I'll indulge you; I have no issue with that scenario from a "germs" point of view.

Do tell me what actual harm I might do myself, if you like.

From the POV that I'm paying through the nose for beer in most pubs anyway, a clean glass will go a tiny part of the way to justifying the expense and show me the barman gives a st.

correctly spaced but off centre number plates, ie the font leaves a big space at the left or right hand side. there seems to be an influx of them in my town, I'll need to try get a pic next time I see one.
