Things you hate IV

...yes of course, was thinking of "gramophone record"...my bad.

When did gramophone become record player / turntable / hifi unit etc ?

 

I wear socks

 

Glad to hear it. I would expect nothing less from the good people on here.

 

White ? Dirk ?

 

Adam ?

 

never trust a man with egg on his face

 

Pre-black Friday discount codes constantly being emailed by various retailers every day, weeks in advance. You just know they’ll offer their biggest discounts next week on or around Black Friday, but they try and wear you down before and get you to jump in sooner, so you can then kick yourself next week if you do.

 

Best stick to plain jasmine rice then.

 

Not so much of a hate, more of a WTF?

There seems to be an epidemic of large cars leaving their roof racks on all year round, (you'll notice it now I've highlighted it). I suppose it means "we're off to Cornwall most weekends so no point taking them off".
I don't understand why people would lower their fuel economy for a "look".

 

The skin is the most fascinating part

 

About 1968

 

You mean just the roof bars or the entire top box?

 

Roof bars, yes.

 

There’s no denying that but it’s not why I wanted to become a veterinarian.

 

I don't take mine off. The difference in fuel efficency is negligible

 

****.

 

Flash adverts featuring international footballers.

 

Peaked in 1998:

 

That didn’t mean I wanted to watch one.

 

The KFC adverts on the ITV coverage of the World Cup. Why do none of these people own a car?

 

Because they spend all their disposable income on fatty foodstuffs?

 

Perhaps they are being environmentally friendly?

 

They probably shouldn’t eat heavily processed meat then.

 

The one that got me was the 2 guys with KFC bumping into each other on the corner running home in opposite directions.

Why didn't they both go to the opposite KFC which would've been closer?

 

Haha yeah, I thought exactly the same. I totally get they’re pushing home delivery, but nobody eating KFC is walking miles there and back to eat it at home, especially during a game of football they’re supposedly desperate not to miss.

 

red wine hangovers

 

Madness.

 

The trend for bleeding depressing Christmas TV adverts

 

The trend of them also having to cover an old well know song and slow it down is what gets me, think it’s been more than done to death now.

 

Whispery versions of songs should be banned by international law with the severest punishment.

 

I think you could have finished your sentence at the word 'miles'.

 

Speak up; I didn't catch that.

 

That's Billie Eilish done for.
