Very trivial indeed, but that ****ing Ed Sheeran song, Galway Girl. I had to turn off the radio just now rather than endure it.

Shape of you makes me want to murder someone. Overplayed to shiiiiiite. As is that "I want something just like this" song with Chris Martin. I actually turned the radio off in a rage when it started playing yesterday, and put on them crooked vultures instead. Excellent decision.

There's a good few shite songs on the radio at the moment, obviously an attempt is being made to turn them into the "summer anthem of 2017":rolleyes:

You don't know how lucky you are :P

TA there was a guy driving in front of me this morning in a '92 Astra, and he deliberately kept braking and then looking into his mirror. When the car in front would pull off he would pull off too then break again. It was clear to me that he was hoping I would rear-end him so that he could put in a fake whiplash claim and pocket a neat 25k. When I chose to stay well behind him, his annoyance was palpable. TA people who think others were born yesterday. You're getting fúck all from my insurance company mate.

That happened me before except I was stupid and ended up rear ending them. The Guards were called and when they came over to us one Guard said to the man I hit, "Jesus, twice in one day? Not your lucky day is it!". He'd already pulled that move earlier on and called the same Guard to the scene! Luckily I never heard anything back.

TA'd at scummy chancers who have no conscience.

KBC bank ad campaign. Not so much a TA than something which sends me into an apoplectic rage. I despise that they have robbed that song "I am what I am" and whereas I used to like the song, now it is stuck in my head 24/7 plus the two dog ugly, rotten looking scragbag, hairy, crusty, "alternative", hippy-dippy, probably tree-hugging and free-loving yokes they have in their ad, dancing around the sitting room make me want to puke. I was actually going to open a KBC account and I am so filled with hatred for them for this ad, I have changed my mind.

Not bad for a subsidiary of an amalgamation of the old Flemish Kredietbank and the Belgian Catholic Farmers Association. :pac:

That reminds me of Bank of Ireland's positvely cringeworthy efforts about ten or twelve years ago to attract the custom of students and various other Hep young thangs.

Facebook.

No! Wait!! Stay with me.

I know ye are going to say that its my own fault for being on it, but if we can put that to one side.

What bugs me is the changing of profile pics to refer to, in this case, the f**king awful incident in Manchester.

Its not that I don't accept that people want to show support (in the tiny or inconsequential way that it does)... its just the fact that its a little symbol over their current profile pic, which is in a lot of cases, a big grinning/drunken/duck face picture. It looks so contradictory or wrong that it just annoys the **** out of me. I'm not saying they should change it to a glum looking face with it, I'm saying maybe change it completely (if that's what you want to do) to a picture fully referencing the incident.

The profile photo flags and the phrase ''stand in solidarity'' are mildly annoying to me.


TA some peoples' distaste for Facebook. I know most of the people on mine and very few have been weirdos and I've met and become friends with people through common interest groups on FB. Boards is fine but it's anonymous and can be snipe-y and argumentative.

TA I had an anxiety disorder which was cured but it's sneaking back again every time I think of going under general anaesthetic. I had surgery as a child and I had no problems but back then I hadn't heard of people not waking up, and that was more minor surgery. Anxiety disorders can't be fully silenced with logic.

And when I say anxiety I don't mean I'm a little bit stressed, I mean I have half a mind to cancel it and damn the consequences, even though that would be the most stupid thing I've ever done.

I am a big fan of The Sopranos, I could talk all day about that program. I have watched it in TV, I have it on DVD and am currently watching it again on SKY...but they have butchered it! Lots of good bits missing....which you obviously wouldn't spot unless you have seen it before. So the lesson is this, if you are one of the few people who has not watched this masterpiece....get it on DVD.

I also LOVE The Sopranos. Why have they cut things out? It's hardly on before the "watershed" anyway so why would they cut anything out? You can't cut things out of it!!

The fecking echo on my phone, ughhhh..

My TA...three day weddings.

Yes. It's like it's not a real wedding these days unless you have the pre wedding party, the wedding itself and then the post wedding bbq. Do they really think anyone other than their immediate family (and I'm sure that's even questionable) wants to spend that much time with them?!
