Agree with Louisiana on sports, especially participation as a spectator - yawn. Other overrated things:


Parties

Dulwich Park and that cafe in it where you have to queue for an hour

Hairdressers - more hairdressers have made me cry than boyfriends

Most TV

Those smock tops that seem so promising but make you look like a spacehopper ... particularly when teamed with -

Skinny jeans

Low rise jeans

MBTs - I'm only wearing them because I was stupid enough to fall for the hype and I can't bear to throw the money away

G-strings - very unhygienic and make your trousers sit badly at the back

Low-rise shorts - make all women look pearshaped


I feel better now.

Agree with Ms B on this one. Over-rated. I only forgive parties if good food is provided.

Yukee!


And the smock tops are particularly bad with big tits.

MBTs?

Dreadful things

Catch 22 - the main conceit aside,just dull.

Home-made mayonaisse - for people who are just too damn lazy to go out and buy salad cream.

Whisk(e)y connoisseurs - it's tan coloured hooch, it gets you pissed. Enough said.

CAMRA - look there's real ale already, stop campaigning. NOW.

Finnegan's Wake - a 'circular' novel apparently. A circular hand movement to it.

Neil Young - stop bloody whining man.

Dolphins are pubs sometimes, so they can't all be bad. The Dolphin in my home town is one of the oldest buildings the town has, it follows the contours of the land and the doorways were meant for four foot dwarves or fit limbo dancers.


most films,

most jobs

most peoples opinion of themselves.

Now I'm not suggesting Charlie Parker is overrated, I think he's great, but he seems to have hit untouchable status when a lot of his stuff, frankly, wouldn't be out of place in a screwball RKO production with Claudette Colbert in!


I blame that Clint Eastwood film with old droopy eye playing Bird, what was it called again?

    • Where to begin? I'm middle class and am quite happy for them to be used for information about voluntary/not for profit/non commercial events, they should not be used as a means of free advertising for businesses, small or otherwise, they are just not large enough.  Commjnity groups do not have the money to advertise to increase awareness of the services they offer. The examples you have given which you would like to see them used for may reflect your own priorities but the community of East Dulwich reflects a much wider range of interests and requirements. The  notice boards were introduced in 2011 when East Dulwich had already gentrified and their purpose discussed in the EDF thread announcing their arrival.  
    • The notice boards are a reasonable size, surely there should be room for both types of leaflets, after all we are meant to be a community? Unless space is extremely limited, it feels a little divisive for a councillor to say private businesses cannot post. All businesses are important for the lifeblood of a community too, aren't they?
    • Hilarious. Yes, they have magic wands and can make the last 14yrs of public asset stripping disappear overnight 🙄
    • Hi if anyone has one pm me cheers
