Absolute vermin.

It takes a lot to wind me up.

But every time I hear someone whistle I want to remove their lungs with a trowel.

I can't conceive of a country where these fine men are held in custody awaiting the execution of the sentence of "Lung Removal".

I used to go in a pub where the landlady would constantly whistle, hum and sing all the time. I bumped into her husband at the cricket, he sold the pub and fecked off while she was visiting her aged mother. Good work there, never saw either of them again.

I actually don't mind whistlers. I think its a dying art. But you do get different degrees of talented whistlers. There's the occasional whistler, who blows out the odd tune, resembling nothing really, just high pitched notes. Then you get the serious whistler, who can bang out a tune clearly and effortlessly. Long live the whistler I say.

I think people whistle instead of talking....to themselves. Looks better to whistle then have a full blown chat with  yourself.

I've always seen it as a sign of happiness and contentment. It should bring a little sunlight into your day to hear somebody merrily whistling as he goes about his work etc.
I shall continue to think that until I am forcibly dragged, kicking and screaming into the world of the miserable anti-whistling brigade!! Whoops

That changed with the introduction of mobile phone headsets. Stick a lump of wire in your ear and you can talk to yourself all day.

They're definitely a dying breed. Used to hear it every day.

The Whistlers profile is typically Male, and either a Pensioner or a Tradesman. Laugh

We bought a new kettle a couple of months ago and that whistles.

And if you don't go and attend to it, it whistles louder and louder.

I managed to get to it yesterday just before it blew all the windows and best glasses (cheap glasses shattered weeks ago).

If only it whistled a tune, like "If you like a lot of chocolate on your biscuit, join our Club", or something from Les Mis.

Years ago the place I worked in was getting a refurbishment.
We were kept open for trading during it and it was bad enough getting covered in dust
But the worst thing was that the workers whistled practically the whole time and it was mainly We all live in a Yellow Submarine.
That wee double beat at the end of We all live .... was like a dripping tap.

I can't sing, but if you want your pub emptied, put me on the karaoke microphone.

I posted this after a chap I see once a week would get on my nerves by whistling some inane tune.

I now see him daily and his whistling is driving me insane. I mentioned a week or so ago to him that a few people find it annoying. He didn't take the hint.

I think I'm going to have to do right thing and grab him by the throat and tell him the next time I hear him whistle I'll burn his house down.

Absolute dickhead.

I can only assume that the non-whistlers and the hated whistlers both belong to the same category...they are both cr4p at whistling!
I will agree that poor/bad whistlers should behave with consideration for others, but good whistlers should carry on bringing sunshine into gloomy lives. Happy
