what about those people that insist on having the aisle seat on trains/ buses and keep their bags on the inside and then get all huffy when you want a seat- and get up and move out so that you have to sit on the inside while they spread out in the aisle? i have quite long legs and their legs are nearly always shorter than mine grrrr.

More a feeling of irrational confusion/frustration.


Is there really any point in watching the first installment of Waking The Dead?


A crime is committed and Boyd tries his best not to punch a female colleague in the face.


The second installment pretty well sums up what happened in the first episode in the space of about a minute and a half and the rest is well worth watching.


Am I missing something here?

Yes! According to The meaning of Liff it's called Shoeburyness

Buying a bunch of flowers to cheer yourself up after a rubbish day, only to discover the head is broken one of them when you get it home (you don't get many sunflowers in a bunch :'( ).


People wanting to know if something is in full working order when you are giving it away for free on the forum. If I knew it was broken I'd chuck it in the bin not post it on a forum to get messed around by umpteen different people who may or may not be interested, can't quite get around to collecting. If I was using it regularly so in a position to know it was in full working order I wouldn't be giving it away for free!, I'd be keeping it.


Oh, and people who are sore they didn't get in first on a free offer saying they hoped the person who beat them to it isn't just going to ebay it, presumably in hope you will give it to them instead and robbing you of any warm glow you might get from doing something nice and replacing it with a feeling you might just be being taken for a ride. Seriously, it's almost enough to make you just lob things in the bin instead even when someone might enjoy using it.

If I am in the company of somebody who I have spent some time with and I want another drink ask what are you drinking and they reply "A double Whisky please" but only have a half pint glass in front of them

People who wait at pedestrian crossings and don't press the button. ?

How about people who press the button, then cross anyway. After they are gone the man turns green and the traffic has to stop for the red light... and nobody crosses? AAAAARGH.

How about pedestrians 9 sorry Ladies but invariably Women) who want to cross a road. you stop or slow down and, inexplicably, they are looking the other way!!!!!! Why??:X so you return to normal speed and they are still left waiting.

Referring to people crossing not at lights etc...

My Grandmother used to say that meant you were due to receive a letter. And Tony.London Suburbs a knife meant you were due to receive a visit from a woman (or was the knife a man and the folk a woman?).

When a mobile company who I am not with, call me on my mobile to try and get me to come over to them. This is even more annoying, when the bloke on the other end of the phone talks like a troglodyte and starts argueing when I ask him what the call is about!!!!!

the twat on the "what would you do with unlimited texts" adverts who says he would form a superband - and his inane gormless smackable face on the side of every single bloody bus that passes me at the bus stop


and that irritant renaissance twat who can play rugby and dance and cook (but seemingly is defeated by normal common or garden speech) on the youngs fish advert

    • the 1.8 million unemployed Brits could do the work that Brits won't do. Make minimum wage higher than the maximum benefits payments. So it's more profitable to be in work than it is to be unemployed.   anyway, round 2 today of Labour's attack on immigration. This one is reminiscent of their "hostile environment" that Liam Byrne created in 2007. 
    • He's always been clear he'd rather be elsewhere than Westminster: https://www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/2024/06/18/starmer-davos-interview/ "Westminster is too constrained. It’s closed and we’re not having meaning. Once you get out of Westminster whether it’s Davos or anywhere else, you actually engage with people that you can see working with in the future. Westminster is just a tribal shouting place."   That's who he is.
    • These are the times he used the word "fight", in context. And Rudy [Giuliani], you did a great job. He’s got guts. You know what? He’s got guts, unlike a lot of people in the Republican Party. He’s got guts. He fights. He fights, and I’ll tell you.   ... For years, Democrats have gotten away with election fraud and weak Republicans, and that’s what they are. There’s so many weak Republicans. We have great ones, Jim Jordan, and some of these guys. They’re out there fighting. The House guys are fighting, but it’s incredible. ... Did you see the other day where Joe Biden said, “I want to get rid of the America First policy”? What’s that all about, get rid of -- how do you say, “I want to get rid of America First”? Even if you’re going to do it, don’t talk about it, right? Unbelievable, what we have to go through, what we have to go through, and you have to get your people to fight. And if they don’t fight, we have to primary the hell out of the ones that don’t fight. You primary them. We’re going to let you know who they are. I can already tell you, frankly. ... Republicans are constantly fighting like a boxer with his hands tied behind his back. It’s like a boxer, and we want to be so nice. We want to be so respectful of everybody, including bad people. And we’re going to have to fight much harder, and Mike Pence is going to have to come through for us. ... And we were going to sit home and watch a big victory. And everybody had us down for a victory. It was going to be great. And now we’re out here fighting. ... [ I GUESS THE BBC REALLY COULDN'T USE THIS ONE:] The American people do not believe the corrupt fake news anymore. They have ruined their reputation. But it used to be that they’d argue with me, I’d fight. So I’d fight, they’d fight. I’d fight, they’d fight. Boop-boop. You’d believe me, you’d believe them. Somebody comes out. You know. They had their point of view, I had my point of view. But you’d have an argument. Now what they do is they go silent. It’s called suppression. And that’s what happens in a communist country. That’s what they do. They suppress. You don’t fight with them anymore, unless it’s a bad story. ... With your help over the last four years, we built the greatest political movement in the history of our country and nobody even challenges that. I say that over and over, and I never get challenged by the fake news, and they challenge almost everything we say. But our fight against the big donors, big media, big tech and others is just getting started. ... Our brightest days are before us. Our greatest achievements still wait. I think one of our great achievements will be election security because nobody until I came along, had any idea how corrupt our elections were. And again, most people would stand there at 9:00 in the evening and say, “I want to thank you very much,” and they go off to some other life, but I said, “Something’s wrong here. Something’s really wrong. Can’t have happened.” And we fight. We fight like hell and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.
    • Saying the election had been stolen was pretty provocative wouldn't you say? Pardoning the rioters would suggest that he agreed with them.  Wouldn't you say? Being an apologist for leaders of a country who execute political enemies, is a sad reflection of civilisation.  Wouldn't you say? Whether the above stands up in a court of law is another question but surely it is obvious to most of us.
