The way teenage girls dress.
I was at Bluewater with the Mrs earlier & the amount of young teenage girls I saw wearing, well....not a lot.
It might sound like a strange 1 but it did annoy me. Knee high boots, short skirts and see through tops on girls that age is just not right.
I appreciate that, as a parent, it's impossible to know what your kids are doing all the time but, the fact they're allowed to leave the house looking like that just baffles me!

The Barca penalty tonight.
There's showboating and then there's being an uneccasary cocky prick.5 -

BUT, as some guy pointed out, does it go down technically as a missed penalty?ValleyGary said:The Barca penalty tonight.

I was fairly certain that after the Henry/Pires cock up, the rules changed and a penalty had to result in an attempt on goal
It annoys me if I've just dreamt that up0 -

But seriously, you're absolutely correct.0 -
Self Service payouts. You attempt to put in a note and it snatches it from you like Arkwright's till. How rude.
Next time i am going to feed it with five pence pieces, that will teach it.

People who take ages at the Self-Service Checkouts because they're paying for items with 5p's
If they dont want their notes to be snatched they should use the normal checkouts4 -

Awards ceremonies like the Grammys or Oscars. Totally pointless, other than to massage the fragile ego of Musicians or Actors.
If a musician sells millions of albums and thousands of fans turn up at every gig, the chances are then they are successful, they shouldn't need a pat on the back and an award. Its a pointless comparison and totally subjective, Ed Sheeran won yesterday and I and many others think he's pony.
Same with actors, your film has just grossed a sqwillion dollars, and yet your need a 12" statuette to underpin your success....really?5 -
Every industry has it's pointless award ceremony. "Cheese maker of the Year", "Car of the Year", "Paper Merchant of the Year". It's all cock. It's just actors and musicians are (supposedly) more interesting than funeral directors to Joe Public...0

So are the PFA awards, the Ballon'dor etc the same then?Greenie said:Awards ceremonies like the Grammys or Oscars. Totally pointless, other than to massage the fragile ego of Musicians or Actors.

Most of these awards are decided by people within the same industry, so I'd imagine it means something different than when the public decide.
It's like footballers always find players player awards mean something different than fans player.1 -
On the subject of self service tills, I don't have an issue with them in general, but the ones in B&Q really annoy me. It's mainly because the voice on it is so quick to remind you to put the next item through that it feels like being constantly nagged. While you're putting one item in a bag, it's already saying "please scan the next item". ALRIGHT! GIVE ME A BLOODY CHANCE! It makes me feel like one of those downtrodden henpecked husbands you used to see in seventies sitcoms.pettgra said:Self Service payouts.

I wouldn't mind any of this if it weren't for the fact that whenever I use B&Q, the self service till is the only till available!5 -
The worst ones are where you cant hear the Checkout beep as you put the item through so you have to wave it in front of the scanner and then pause for 5mins as you wait to see if it comes up on the list as being scanned before moving on to the next item0

People who stand and have a piss in a toilet cubicle yet dont close the door... Almost just walked into the back of someone at work because I didnt realise it was occupied0

Mind you if it was a woman she was performing quite a party piece.0 -
I have to admit... I use the cubicle when I go to the toilet as dont like the thought of someone watching me perform the duty, but because of that I close the door!!cafcdave123 said:
