Trivial Things that annoy you - Mod Note in OP

….

new lens cleaner. The 500ml Coke for perspective…No wonder the cleaner was as I thought reasonably priced, its tiny. Got loads of cloths and wipes too in the bundle but jeez was mainly the spray I was after..have cloths. 🫤. Rip off.

Or maybe Jimmy Hill. 🤭

I remember back in the day when you first signed up to Boards @New Home. You use to play the 'Name That Art' game on the old Art and Architecture forum with Oblomov (RIP) myself and a few others before they deleted the whole thing. There was an awful lot of banter and creativity went into the making of that thread. Such a shame it can't still be accessed in some aspect. I'd love to be able to browse through its pages again.

There was a couple of young sparrows sort of hanging around my kitchen window. I put out a few crumbs now and again and they pick away.

Unfortunately some of the voracious local starlings have discovered them so the sparrows don't get much of a look in.

Used to have a Robin on the windowsill that would loose his mind over cheese bits. It was like Christmas and Birthday had come together. If you kept still he'd come in and hop around the kitchen floor picking crumbs. Sometimes you'd hear tapping at the window,yer man looking for more cheese.

Disappeared after a few weeks though.

Yes, that was a later reincarnation of the original game. It never took off that well on the CVPL thread. We'd been playing 'Name That Art' as an offshoot of 'Name That Architecture' back from the early days of Boards.ie. The whole Art and Architecture forum was deleted to free-up some space on the servers, as far as I can remember.

People who refuse to acknowledge that the footpath isn't wide enough for four people: the world does not revolve around you. Random people should not have to step onto the road just to accommodate you and your girlfriend holding hands. Learn to walk in single file or FOff.

Deluded people - mainly girls - who act like they are supermodels or celebrities and treat everyone else like background characters - here's one for you, luv: you are not the main character. Put down the phone. Uninstall TikTok and Instagram. Stop performing for a non-existent camera and start living in the real world. Nobody cares about you.
