Little things that irritate you

Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.

Stand next to him, pull your trousers and pants down to your ankles like a toddler, and make your piss.

I'm only getting cats fighting cancer. Although that does sound quite interesting.

Also, it’s Ok to chat on your way to the bogs but as soon as you get to the urinal ... silence.... and chat only recommences once Percy is safely tucked up.

At last! Someone who agrees with me regarding that irritating c**t.

The only saving grace is he's on the radio so we don't have to endure the torture of looking at him as he's also got a face you'd never get tired of kicking (all imo of course). Cheers Tenbury.

Can someone tell me why the term "mansplaining" is not considered sexist?

It's a woman thing.If you tell them the honest truth, they''ll just sulk and cry.

"Multi-tasking" - something you have to do if you don't understand prioritising, or lack the vision or foresight to see what's coming. Another stereotypical woman thing.

I've worked with some women that are fantastic in leadership posts - they are the ones least likely to trot out the trite ***** that you would hear on Loose Women. The minute they mention their biology/gender, you know they're crap.

Thank you BBC, thank you for your f***ing diversity ratios, it's really improved that show, in particular :thdn:
I always remember her testing John Peel's patience during the BBC Glastonbury TV coverage many years ago; late in the day she'd say something like 'So John, what have you enjoyed today?'. Peely would then quietly recall his day, drifting from stage to stage, enjoying a variety of music and other things - Wiley would nod along in happy incomprehension, before loudly butting in that she'd just seen Razorlight, it was the most transformative musical experience of her life, and then spend 10 excruciating minutes trying to convince him that he'd missed out on something akin to his first listen of the Sex Pistols.


It was like listening to Eddie The Eagle trying to convince a V2 rocket that his efforts at flying were superior to it due to sheer force of will.

I've only ever heard it being used when a woman is losing an argument and she wants to pressure/embarrass the man she's arguing with into shutting up.

Smelly people. Ok, I know it`s hot and if you are doing some physical work then you may sweat a bit, that`s fine, nothing wrong with a bit of honest sweat.. But some people out there, you just know its yesterdays sweat. Which means you haven`t bothered to wash, or change your shirt, or probably a combo of both.
You get down wind of these people and it`s enough to make your eyes water. Have some personal pride, buy some soap and deodorant, and don`t go out in public smelling like Satans crease.

The amount of young people ( under 24 ) that get into the lift of my local supermarket with one item, say a bag of crisp and use the lift to go to the basement ( one floor down ) while I have a trolley full and have to go down with them before coming back up again and then on to the the first floor.

It's only one small flight of stairs and happens almost every time I go there.

All the goose-steppers at my office speak English with an American tone. Makes me hate them even more.
