Little things that irk you.. (no swearing please)

Youtube. "Naughty boys in nasty schools". Thought it was quaint the first few times, now gives me the rage.

You're a paedo?

It's not about OCD! Sandwiches take two slices of bread to make, having an uneven number of slices in a loaf is a total nonsense

I keep the first crust for freshness but eat the last, so odd numbers work fine IMO.

One of the things that irk me is the term "award winning". At times so vague, its so difficult to find out what the award was that was won.

Rhod Gilbert does an entire stand-up set based around this. It's called 'Rhod Gilbert and the award winning mince pie'. It's bloody funny.

[Mayhem]

Heh, my brother and I both enjoyed that routine. One of my brother irks is similar, claims on books being a "#1 best seller". For one week maybe. Where people might have been paid to buy the book to get there. But who knows. Are there rules about using the words "best seller"?

Have to just say I watched that the other night and I seriously was laughing my arse off.
The service station toilet bit had me in tears.

Yeah, I don't get this. How can a first release hardback have this on the cover..... Surely means "expected to be"

Not really, if you've been the number one book in any country or any chart at all you can claim that. If there's a specific chart for books about dinosaurs, then you can be a #1 Best Seller if you top it.

It's stupid, really.

I switch the tv on to be greeted by the Teen Choice Awards. 30 yr old men dressed like 14 yr olds in tight red jeans & some kind of 80s style short sleeved leather jacket. Eveyone else dressed in either tracksuits (yeuch!!, get some trousers & a t-shirt on instead of pyjamas) or are dressed like some 4 yr old kid has dressed 1 of their dollies! You look ridiculous.

Glee seems to be so popular. Why is that? A so called school based comedy full of cliched characters (the new teacher, the fat black girl, the school jock, the asian, the cripple in a wheelchair, the gay 1, the nerd with glasses etc) that knocks off old songs which I used to love but have started to loathe due to this programme slaughtering them, & teenagers constantly humming the crappy Glee versions everywhere I go. Its basically a musical version of Saved By The Bell ffs!

Street dancing is bloody everywhere I look now. FFS IT LOOKS BLOODY TERRIBLE!! Its like living in the 80's all over again ffs!

While I'm on the subject of being completely out of touch with the 'Young Adults' , please tell me why everytime I switch on the radio it all seems to sound the same? All female singers seem to sound the same along with their music, Chris Brown sounds like JLS sounds like Jason Darudo etc etc. Why? Cos they all seem to be ripping off old (Classic) Dance tracks. And I am so sick of hearing the Stephen Hawking machine being used to 'enhance their voices. Even tho I know there are other ppl making real music out there, there is no diversity in music on the radio anymore. No Metal, no Punk, no Eurodance, no Acoustic, no Hip Hop, no Indie, no Rock mixe in there. Its all Dance/RnB mixed now.

Glee is genuinely good. It's good for the reasons you say, it's full of clich? characters. It doesn't take itself even remotely seriously, and as a result it's just good, silly, fun.

Silly? Yes.
Fun? If your idea of fun is wanting to tear out your eyes & rip off your ears due to the irritating faces, dialogue & music then yes it is fun.
Good? I've polished better turds than Glee

Is it because of pre-orders? I think in the past American music companies used to say 'shipped gold' or 'shipped platinum' based on store orders, not even sales to customers.

You polish turds? Is that even possible?

I agree with your feelings towards Glee though.

[monel]

You polish turds

Xenophobia!!!!
