What really annoyed you today


Recommended Posts

My horrible skin, due to see a specialist at Malton Hospital in a couple of weeks time after been referred again by my GP. It's like being dragged through nettles 24/7, for the time being i've just been advised to keep up my steroid dosage and antihistamines to stop me from wanting to scratch, easier said than done.

Uncovering some more maize,..............2 of us,1 shovel, 1 scraper,.......about 9 inches of snow and like a bloody skating rink up there. I hate to think how difficult it must be for farmers further up country with a couple of feet or more, of snow on top of the sheets.............. :( :(

Would a leaf blower or two come in handy here? :-\

the entire road network in plymouth grinding to a halt for sleat / snow ,lasted 3 hours and never really laid due to it being wet before, yet no one could cope with it, took me 45 mins to go 1 mile on the way back to the yard, recon a good 75% of the extra cars was down to schools shutting early, and parents driving to pick the little soles up rather than walking like i used to do, no wonders they all look fat now a days, lack of exercise

Magazines:

Specifically those Z – List single syllable celebrity gossip titles designed by people for people with far too much fresh air between their ears. They’re like a Reality TV show that’s had one too many pints of Lambrini and proceeded to quite deliberately and conveniently projectile vomit across pages of print surely derserving of a headline a little more intuitive and interesting than;

“ (Not so) Famous Person Photographed Picking Nose and Then Eats Itâ€

So another already stick thin starlet discovers an alternative green diet to rabbit food and liquidised wheat grass. Who cares?

Well I do for a start, meaningless drivel like this should at the very least  be kept hidden amongst the verse of the top shelf tabloid beyond page three and not gratuitously and garishly slurry spread over nearly an entire ailse’s worth of shelving. 

Now before people start proclaiming, “but you don’t have to read them, you have a choice.â€

You’re right I do, I’d much rather be reading  an edition of Auto Trader or Morse Code Monthly from cover to cover.

However if the dedicated cashier I normally trust to replace the magazine returns most mornings sleeps in for her 7am shift by sixtyfourhundred hours, then I really don’t have much choice than to do them myself.

Which means I also had the pleasure of adjudicating which of these pointless publications contained the most hyperbolic of headlines.

Let’s start with Loose Women, or at least one of it’s presenters who is having second  thoughts over her abilities as a parent, pending the birth of her child. Think about this, how many thousands of other soon-to-be-mothers out  there, grafting in the grime of reality are having the same thoughts? But, you can bet your baby sized Jimmy Choos they’re not going to be speed dialing their  P.A declaring, “I think i’m going to be a naff mother, send me a low-cut sequinned dress,  photographer and some crocodile tears right away!â€

I suppose I should mention one of the most prominent of prose pillagers out there at the moment, Jordan, everyone else does. And her current grievance with the world?  Her hard-as-nails almost Hubby parading around in mansize Pampers in front of millions on national television. Jordan said she was embarrased by this. Really? More embarrased by that than him going on record saying they were bigger than Jacko’s death. I can’t decide whether he was describing a pair of nappies or what he was wearing last night.

My personal favourite though from this morning was the puppy dog pet lipped photograph of ex-Eastender's actor Ricky Groves. He had been recently ditched by another ex-Eastender, Hannah Waterman, and promptly sold his side of the story and quivering pout to the press. Maybe he was just jealous of the attention she had garnered recently for slapping on some lippy and breathing in everytime a camera was pointed at her.

This did lead me to wonder though what would happen if I were to behave in precisely the same way as all these so called celebrities with my previous girlfriend of Scandinavian descent. I can picture the headline appearing at the top of all tommorow’s gossip columns:

“Co-op Mogul Spurns Advances of Ravernous Wiking in Favour of British Babe Imberâ€

There might not be an ounce of truth in that, but surely it’s better than being photographed eating your own bogies.

An interesting outpouring David.

I am sure that we would be much more interested in reading about what Mandy did on her birthday than what Jordan or Peter has been up to.

Talking of nose picking - I have noticed that when the traffic slows down, such as in the recent snowy conditions, there is a greater human tendency to nose pick and eat.

Thanks for your thoughts - the forum is a better place because of them! :)

Thanks Jo, enjoyed putting that little piece of scribble together, I really hope they do run out of headlines for messrs Price, Reid and Andre soon. There can't be that many left to regurgitate, surely. :)

Not one for picking my nose and eating but I do twiddle my hair whilst driving and in front of the computer screen. Which is fine until I start pulling aswell, the last thing I want is to become voluntarily bald at 26.  ;D>:(

Sometimes less than a mile - we had one parent in this village who used to drive all of a QUARTER of a mile to take her children to the village school and then went straight back home again.  What a nonsense.
