Football. The players, the fans and the sport itself.

* Brits who say period (e.g. "no more foolishness, period).

My girlfriend dumped me for being immature.

She said "we're finished: Period"

Heheheh "period"

Tesco are doing free gift-wrapping on Tampons, but it's for the Christmas period only.

People that are too "mature" to find any joy in rubbish puns irk me. Lighten up a bit.

I don't know who he is because I've never sk8ted with him.

That's the only way to really know somebody

[EDDIE M0NS00N]

Hmmmm let me think of something, off the top of my head of course.....

.....Well, I suppose childish in jokes that dont know when to draw the line get very tiresome.



If you havent got over it now boys................

[Dirty Sanchez]

Lighten up Tommy.

Sky+ means I don't watch ANY crap TV. If it's not something I really want to watch, I don't, simple.

Anyways - irks

Smoking. Almost enough said but it comes to something when the walk to and from the station to work is like walking though a giant smoking shelter.

Cats. I'm going to install a sprinker system in my garden that super soakes the gits who come and crap in it. Generally cats, just don't like them, urgh.

I'm actually on your side, Tommy!

I particularly guffawed at the bit where you said he was trying to come across as some Victorian gent "what what don't 'cha know".

I'm merely jesting with you!

I'm not sure if I was supposed to laugh at that but I did and quite loudly too.

That's Christmas sorted

When turning on my TV today I thought of something else that irks me: unresponsive LCD TV's. For example, I have to wait 5 seconds once the power has been switched on at the wall for it to allow me to turn on the TV. Then when I press the power button on the TV it takes another 5-10 seconds for the picture to come through. Once it's on, and i'm cycling through the connections like Digital TV, component, VGA, HDMI 1, HDMI 2 etc. it spends a few seconds 'loading' each one, meaning I can't just hit the button 3 times instantly to get to HDMI 1, instead I have to wait for each one to load up individually. Even my old CRT TV done everything quicker.

Another thing related to technology is when remotes only use Infra Red rather than an RF signal. I spend ages pointing the remote at different angles and hitting the thing untill it responds with the TV (a problem that is amplified when the batteries are near death), normally I have to resort to moving my arse off the couch to get it to work, which sort of ruins the point of remotes.

Yep, I hate the apple users its more about image now. Having the next I-whatever is now a status symbol. You can't upgrade or change it without apples approval, look at the I-pod you can't do anything without paying an apple fee even for ringtones now it seems. And all the hardware is more pricey than anything else on the market.

Apple users are the new yuppies.

Apple users in general.
