What are the minor things that currently annoy you?

[Brentwood]

1. When i'm doing the dishes and guests try to help by piling up the dirty pans into the sink i'm using. Then i have to put my hands into dirty hot water to fish out spoons and put them in the dishwasher.

2. When newspapers like the Independent try to get down with the kids and compete with buzzfeed by posting **** like "Someone said 'Lady Garden' on Coronation Street and the internet couldn't cope"

3. When people try to make a non issue that nobody has ever cared about, and make a big deal out of it. Like being allowed to talk about being on the blob

A rseholes on Facebook telling you all about their dull as ditchwater lives.

C unts on mobile phones in the train or any other public enclosed area.

The sound Twitter makes. I could kill the guy who invented it.

People who don't use deodorant.

"Spare some change" vagrants.

1. People who drive forwards into parking spaces. Park pretty, for God's sake!

2. Men wearing hats indoors. Mind you, that's not really a minor thing.

With regard to your point 1, b, might I recommend a dishwasher?

Brilliant. I sometimes read out sports results out loud when there's a **** on a train doing the same stuff. I am planning to invest in a machine which disrupts mobile signals.

Have you considered learning some Buddhist techniques? I can see from here, your aura is dreadfully red and your chakras are unbalanced. I'll PM you details of the retreats I run - we can address your issues with meditation, the rejection of choleric meat products and alcohol, and denial of self-pollution.

People who let loads of cars out from a side road into crawling traffic and (presumably) think they are the nice guy for doing so, apparently not realising that they are delaying those behind them who have been queuing patiently. Cünts.

Christ. It's bad enough having to go from Luton to Birmingham, which is very much out of the ****heap and into the cesspit. :-(

Sometimes you have to park forwards to stop other cùnts getting the space

They spent a lot on the area around New Street. And the jewellery district, Edgbaston and St Paul's Square are OK.

Luton, on the other hand, is the Stoke of the south.

It was bad enough when I thought they were volunteers, but the cunds are on commission.

I once had a row with an Amnesty International won once when i took a bird out on a date to London. They were on the news at the time for doing something i disagreed with and I made a right tit of myself tbf

Quite, in fact I can't think of a single Stones song that sounds anything like it. Perhaps something from their acid stage that I'm not familiar with.

[Burney]

Quite, in fact I can't think of a single Stones song that sounds anything like it. Perhaps something from their acid stage that I'm not familiar with.

It's from an orchestral version of 'The Last Time' and the bit that was sampled wasn't written, played or arranged by any of the Rolling Stones, but they owned the copyright.

No. He's a cock imo. There's nothing particularly admirable about a man like that. Take away the fame and he'd be living under a bridge somewhere smelling of meths and no-one would admire him.

I saw a picture of me recently from 1985, wearing a Born In The USA tour sleeveless t-shirt and a red bandana, so this line really makes me chuckle. “Looking back at those pictures now,” he reflects, “I think I look simply . . . gay.”

The press seem to be universally supportive, don't they? Actually, all the attention is really pissing me off now. It started about 10 years ago when people began to acknowledge him as a bit of a legend, but now everyone is jumping on the fawning bus.

They can all fúck off. They know nothing of Bruce. Some of us have put the hard yards in over the years. #likedthembeforetheywerecool

It's OK. I understand. Rest assured I won't be jumping on the bandwagon. I still think he's...y'know..OK-ish. :thumbup:

I saw this myself recently, think it was in a piece in the Sunday Times about his book. Didn't read the whole thing but noticed the "gay" comment.

Surprised the touchy queens didn't start screaming about this comment.

It's utterly harmless of course but when did such a criteria bother poofs about making a mountain out of a molehill.

Mother of God, have these people no shame?

I was in a club once in the 80s and they played a 'dance remix' of Dancing In The Dark. Now I hate Dancing In The Dark almost as much as Bruce, who was persuaded by CBS to grant them a commercial hit single, but a 'dance remix'? I was almost physically sick.

Yes, I thought that. I kind of supposed that no one could possibly imagine that Bruce could use the term pejoratively.
