i have to agree with Fabulous' list, however the post was marred by having an "an hilarious" in it. That only very mildly gets in the vicinity of being on my t1ts.

wedding lists - specifically being given some John Lewis web address to purchase something from a long list of required items. Firstly, how materialistic is it to expect your friends to basically deck out your new home with everything you want



or the new facking one - just a bank account number so they can fack off somewhere on honeymoon to take pictures of their feet/sand

Channel 4's decision to broadcast the call to prayer during Ramadan in an obvious move to get on the tits of the indigenous population and stir-up unrest against the peace-loving muslim community.... I think we know which skull-cap wearing ethnic string-pulling community are behind this...

I'm one of those annoying b*ggers who always goes off piste when it comes to the wedding list. I work on the principle that the only reason a good port decanter or claret jug can possibly have been left off the list is because of the missus, so they get one anyway. The groom probably deserves a Pyhrric victory before the lifetime of nagging that'll ensue.

Great shout johnnyrant about blokes on a stag do.

People who go to a music festival for the weekend, and it's a mudbath, resulting in them coming home with a rather nasty case of trenchfoot. Instead of being honest and saying they hated every minute of it, and spent the entire weekend wishing they were at home with a warm bed and a shower, they'll claim that the weather didn't matter, and they loved every minute of it..........some will even claim that the somme like conditions actually added to the ecperience. Liars.

The way Sue Barker says, 'Dav-eeed Ferrer'. Her intro pieces each day & generally the way she speaks - her delivery, her tone, her banal questions… And this becomes even more annoying with Tiger Timmy alongside her, who keeps saying, 'Very much so' at the outset of his replies - just count how many times he uses this expression Cry

Self-service checkouts at supermarkets.

There are no basket only checkouts at a major supermarket chain (not going to name them, but they begin with "M" and end with "orrisons") where I pass by on work runs, and with the few other manned checkouts clogged by old gits who have all day to do their shopping but choosing instead to get in the way at lunchtime, had no choice but to attempt to use one this afternoon.

There was even a queue for those, and already feeling angry with a very large basket of items, I knew it was going to end badly.

First two items are 2 boxes of cereal, and with no room on there for anything else once they're in the bag, what choice have you got but to take the bag off?

But OH NO, the blasted thing doesn't like that. 'Wrong weight' it tells you, and you have to stand there like a lemon while it informs you optimistically, 'An Assistant is coming!'

Except one isn't coming. Because they're dealing with all of the other problems that the self-service area is throwing up aren't they?

So you stand there, and stand there, and stand there, and stand there, and stand there. And the ignorant staff don't even have the courtesy to look you and tell you that they'll be with you as soon as they can. No, you just stand there, and stand there, and stand there, and stand there some more as your anger rises further in this cesspit of modern progress.

So, you ask, 'can I have some help please,' and the feckwit snidely sneers some response that confirms that you really are a piece of turd on the bottom of her shoe.

So, finally, the fuse snaps.

'Ah, forget it,' and walk out...

I'd still be standing there now if I hadn't.

Good shout Nibbsy, a supermarket near me, well it's officially a Tesco Express but it's very big so I would call it a supermarket do not have manned tills after 8.00pm til close at 11.00pm. So you have no choice but to use the self service scanners. One evening they had four staff on duty helping people scan their stuff who couldn't work the things out. I just said to them, instead of doing that why don't three of you jump behind a till and start serving normally? They looked at me sheepishly and said that wasn't allowed by the store manager! You just couldn't make it up.

What you don't know Slippy is that I deliberately sabotaged it to make sure that you were off your game when we face off on the winner takes all VC competition. Assume you're talking about the one at the end of Park Hall Lane. If not, my nefarious antics have all been for nothing! Surprised

Gary Richardson's abysmal interviewing at Wimbledon - he tries to be this grand inquisitor but consistently asks ridiculous questions & makes himself sound like the junior report on the local rag. Wish Murray would just chin him one day post-match.

I don't think the supermarket staff can just 'nip' behind the checkouts as and when they want. There are rules to be followed and discipline to be maintained.
David Ferrer is French (I think) and so he is NOT called Day-vid.

Some of these examples only go to show how important trivialities have become to some people. I despair.

Yep. Same thing at a B&Q I went to recently, the store was virtually dead and yet there was two morons standing at the self service area 'ready to help' when they could have been more helpful at a till!

Ridiculous.

In my experience there is an arrogance amongst some members of the "professions" in terms of how they treat their clients.

I'm talking about doctors, dentists, accountants etc. Almost an attitude like, "I'm the dentist, you're the patient. Do as you're told"

Better than it was 20 years ago though

It's because of their imbued: "Don't you realise? I AM a doctor" superiority complex, which (unfortunately) makes the shysters even more aloof than the Queen talking to Balding, as they seem to think their patients are thicker than the scum beneath their bathtubs, on the whole.
