ITV still using that 'Bittersweet Symphony' intro/outro for international games, just please come up with something else for the love of god!

Maybe you could sell them back to the Chinese

[Rocket Spud]

Why??

Peculiar girl..

You want the thingy guy again .. MAD magazine, Alfred Neumann?

[Rocket Spud]

Bloody hell ... harsh, Charlotte.

No, sorry, i won't be changing anything of that nature anytime soon, you'll have to put up with it or put in a mod request to banish me :P

[Rocket Spud]

Would you stop hassling me for 70p?

No

[Ronnie_Pickering]

Housemate. Can hear his voice miles away and he analyses stuff with lengthy repetitive conversations. I need to be somehow more tolerant, or accept I mostly dislike people.

When people message my Mum's shop on Facebook and close with an 'x' or six. Hold off one sec - it's not necessarily that deplorable a practice as some of the people that do it are regulars and may have a bit of a relationship with us (my Mum, really), and they also might expect their messages to read and responded to by my Mum. In reality though, I deal with that side of things, so regularly have respond to women twice my age that I've probably spoken less than twenty different words to with a barrage of kisses. It makes me feel a bit dirty.

[Cheshire Cat]

Trying to type on SA-UK with my iPhone and every time I use the select/paste tool it annoying obscures the bold/italics/underscore bar.

[Fantastical]

Drivers that edge forward at roundabouts. It doesn't get you there any quicker, it causes a hazard to cars coming around in that lane and it blocks the view of the car trying to enter the roundabout next to you - particularly when they're in a small car and you're in a big 4x4.

[Merritt]

The way that, just because I briefly watched a clip from Goodnight Sweetheart, YouTube now thinks I have a passionate interest in Nicholas Lyndhurst, saturating the sidebar with his head.

Your Mum: "It's no problem at all. In fact it's actually my son that deals with that side of the business."

She'll say that as she points in your general direction. You'll naturally be polishing Stephen Seagul.

Lady: "Ding-dong."

I've only just seen this. I wish I could say I'm disturbed by the idea, but the truth is I accept a ding-dong wherever I'm offered one.

I always like Goodnight Sweetheart, but I found it quite odd to have a comedy based on a man having an affair.

That old lady who stops in front of my window and stares in...wtf?

One day I might dress as death and stare out at her and wave haha, I'm mean.

she actually Stops and stares ! That's a little creepy.
I hate when people are walking past and stare in but actually stopping and looking in would scare me. Maybe you could spray her with a water gun next time ? I'm kidding Im not that mean

[kirbycrackle]

^ you guys shouldn't tempt me

yea it's so weird! She stands there for about three to four seconds pretends to look in the hedge and then shuffles off! This happens about three times a day lol

[purplerose]

^ I always thought I was the biggest weirdo around but some of the stories you guys post about other's makes me feel a little more normal haha.

[kirbycrackle]

^ nothing more reassuring than realising the world is crazier than you are lol

[newbs16]

^ Well they lady next door has seen them.

[strawberrysmoothie]

My neighbour upstairs who loves to play his guitar with his amp on in the early hours of the morning, or full blast his music before 6am and after 12pm. Sometimes it's that loud I can hear the lyrics.

[Fantastical]

Other people driving my car. Really, really annoys me.

[Mo34]

Even though I'm tired and I can have a lie in, I still wake up at 6am

*Also annoying is my seeming unconscious obsessional use of the word 'though' when posting.

[Silent Ninja]

The people I work with, nearly all short in stature but definitely all short of character.

[Professor Willow]

When the kid next door plays his music loud enough for me to hear it and then every time a decent song comes on he skips to something shit, selfish turd!

[Appear]

^ When a song comes on that you don't like, bring up the lyrics online and start singing to it at the top of your voice. And then when he changes track, do it again. And then again.


I'm annoyed at Prezzo sending me a Happy Half Birthday email. ***k off, Prezzo. I haven't got over becoming 26 yet, so really don't need to be told I'm now closer to 27.

[newbs16]

^ I didn't know they did a limit
