People who are really aggressive about their petty, yet very strong and totally uninformed opinions...

Annoyingly I think it may include me...I have never read, seen the original or even watched the trailer...but ask me if I plan to watch 50 Shades Darker and I can feel my blood boil at how someone would assume I would watch and how terrible it is...

Phrases that do nothing but smtry to sexy up nothingness...

'Yeh, I'm just chilling tonight'.. so you're staying in on your own. 

I'm rocking the sunglasses vibe today'..so you're wearing sunglasses...etc

People who say 'is anyone listening to this'  and turn the TV /radio off, when I'm enjoying the background noise....

I know exactly the one you are talking about. Talksport perhaps? Baked eggs at 3am?

At 3am I'd be in bloody bed, not sharing a bowl of baked eggs!!

I actually have to turn it off it winds me up that much.  

Just as bad...'Oh she didn't know I didnt like spicy curry...and she still doesn't ; I just add creme fraiche haha'..

Oh you smug, annoying muddyfunster..I want to smash the t.v. over your mild curry loving head.

Tesco 'Food Love Stories'...grrrr...can't listen to these sickly made up stories.

 Interstellar isn't as good as Interstellar? 

I think this is a rather clever 'time continuum' type thing...

Trainspotting 2.

If you watched and loved the original - 9/10.

If not.. 7/10.

Lots of nods to the original so I really enjoyed it..nostalgia and 'what have I done with my life' abound.

Absolutely.

People who say.... 'abbbbbbbsolutley'.

Yes... or agreed will suffice  

Lala Land. ...Would rather cut off parts of my anatomy.

Spotlight 8/10. Understated, great acting, really troubling what people get away with.

Trainspotting 2..can't wait.

 On a similar note, check out some peoples work desks. Empty or half drunk cups/glasses left overnight, unwashed breakfast bowls, sauce bottles (!) and spices (!)...I kid you not.

People who having already imposed on you by saying they need to sneak out of the office early. ..saying 'would you just wash my cup...shut down my computer.. leave a message for so and so'...

Oh yeh no problem I'll have an hour of your pay too!!

I really 'enjoy' all the posts here and credit to Daveo especially for his, because forums like this and social media in general - are central to the growing poor mental of young people especially.  Everyone is posting pictures of them going out having fun, meeting people ...larging it..pictures of holidays...concerts .how many followers  etc etc. Its all a facade...its like the Wizard of Oz..they aren't living the life you want or they'd be too busy enjoying it to let you know!! All the best for 2017.

Tell them you can't go because you don't want to.

Honesty is always the best policy.

Do you think I need to lose weight?

Are you happy to cover my shift this weekend ?

She's not attractive is she? 

You don't mind if we have a chat tonight?

Hey, you've not seen the photos of my kids..Would you like to see them?

You got a death wish!!

Getting invited to a wedding.  Bad enough at the best of times but when it is bang in the middle of when you hoped to go on holiday it makes it worse.

Missus' childhood friend gets married. So that's already £200+ for stag weekend with loads of blokes you don't know or like...similar expenditure for missus on the hen-do BEFORE you even start. Then £150 for hotel for the wedding, £150 for new dress/shoes for her, £50 for present... £80 on overpriced drinks on the day. Listen to loads of speeches from people you don't know whilst starving and uncomfortable (too tight suit as you refused to spend even more money) sat with people you don't know..except from one bloke and his missus who they probably think you got on ok with on stag-do. Crappy disco and hanging around until you can slip away and get to bed. 

What's not to like?

The big deal made about the New Years Honours list. With its populist vibe its starting to have all the importance of the 'rear of the year award'.

Sir Ian Botham I can see that....Sir Steve Redgrave hmm possibly... Sir Chris Hoy..less sure now....Sir Dave Brailsford increasingly uncomfortable....

Sir Andy Murray?? Sorry ...he has 3-4 years at the top of his sport to go..no need to honour him, pointless. What next?? Sir Jamie Vardy? Sir Dele AllI? 

PS Posh Spice? ???

Yeah my Mrs is definitely a bigger Potter fan than me but I found Eddie Redmayne's character's mannerisms really annoying & they grated on me. I think that's why I couldn't engage with it to begin with.

Couldn't agree more. Really slow in general...kids were bored and I was counting down the minutes. 4/10

Rogue 1...There's a film...got better and better 8/10.

People who update their Whatsapp or whatever profile, on a daily basis with an uplifting/sickly -  'treat every day as if its your last' - type message...even though the are the most miserable person in the office. 

My Doctor's receptionists who have started to ask 'ok..and what is the problem' when I try to book an appointment!  .

How would I know? That's what I'm seeing the Doctor for you cretin!!...

Or am I'm really supposed to say 'well I've got a weird lump and some discharge on my Johnson I need looking at...'

The 'them and us' split is put into focus though when you consider the motorist is annoyed cos their journey is taking several seconds longer than they want....the cyclist is on danger of getting knocked off their bike and seriously injured, maimed or killed ....

Anyone who starts the answer to a question with the phrase 'Hey, listen...'

Partly for the pedantic reason that clearly I am already...but mainly as it seems to signify they really think they are the last word on the subject...

'Vague' radio traffic reports that assume I have an encyclopedic knowledge of the motorway junctions. 

 eg I'm on M6 driving up to Liverpool...'we have word of a serious incident..police say the M62 motorway is closed at junction 15, with two hour delays please find an alternative route if possible'...cue panic in the car.

Just bloody clarify and say 'the M62 is closed at the junction 15... for LEEDS'..!!

Having a lovely hot shower...then realising someone has taken the towel off the back of the bathroom door.

Having a relaxing err..number 2...and realising someone has finished the toilet roll and not replaced it.

Having a refreshing glass of fruit juice...only to realise someone has put in back in the fridge with a tiny dribble left in it...

Either my missus is a nightmare or I am impossibly demanding to live with. ...

That 30 mins is important for us City folk.. You have to remember the north is largely unexplored and canabilism is still popular in Lancashire.. Us Londerners move at a quicker pace..

I love the fact I've just liked your post, that you can't think of anything to write on the 'random things that make you happy' thread...and here you are merrily posting on here! haha. 

8 pages vs 130...who say us Brits are moaning gits?

forced myself to re-watch Ronin last night, having seen it about 15 years ago and it not making a positive impression on me.

I have to say, it did nothing to change my mind, a load of old nonsense with a couple of car chases.

5/10

Thank God..someone else thought what I did. Keep thinking I need to watch it again, must have missed something as you always see it talked about as a classic. Whereas I thought it was average, cliche-ridden fluff.

Is there a 'nowhere near as good as the hype' thread? I'll put on my tin hat and throw a couple of grenades into that category...The Deer Hunter; 2001 Space Odyssey, Kill Bill....

Gotta pull you up here mate though!

Sturridge has the most  totally annoying celebration going...sticks his toblue out and then does a really naff caterpillar thing with his arms.

Obviously auto corrected there...TONGUE out. Although his too blue might be more of a crowd  pleaser!

Or players who score then just walk away Balotelli style with no emotion. Benteke is one, Sturridge is another. It's happening more often.

FFS! If it were me I'd be crowdsurfing!

Where's the emotion gone?
