Yeah, I came on to say that. Is she pissed or stoned on it? She makes it unwatchable.Quote:

She has looked like she’s bevvied on a couple of them but it’s so false - even banging the desk sometimes while forcing her “laugh” out. Struggling to watch it now.Quote:

Small Print on the Radio.
You're listening to some music and it goes to the adverts, only for half of them to end with some twit reading the small print at a speed that could induce a heart attack
Bl**dy irritating

I watch programmes regularly on the Discovery and History channels and it really annoys me when the American narrators pronounce Antarctica as Anartica. Its baffling.Quote:

So wrong and ignorant.

Troops.
It seems a really west coast thing. 'Listen up troops...', 'me and the troops...'
Also people who say 'me and someone' rather than 'someone and I'.
The warning that keeps coming up on my phone about my headphone volume being too loud. It’s not even headphones I’m using, it’s the car stereo which is coming through my speakers, for some reason the volume is lower than normal meaning I have to turn it up more. I can’t seem to disable the warning notification.
If you could disable it some American would make a claim after going deaf despite the warnings. Blame it on the person that sued McDonald's for serving hot covveffeQuote:

Most of the tlme the reply 'OK' would be enough.
The Johnny Walker Experience is the first thing that folk see approaching Princes St from the west. This project was much heralded prior to construction as a wizard wheeze to fleece the tourists of yet more cash. Fair enough - it's Edinburgh.
Considering the huge amount of inconvenience that pedestrians were put to during construction you'd think the developers might have left the building in better condition. The masonry is pocked all over with what look like old scaffolding bolt holes. It's a mess.
People who just won’t accept factual corrections.
American politician AOC describing Nicola Sturgeon as “head of state”
Me on comments section: she’s not actually a head of state
Replier to comments: can you prove that you slavering fool?
Me: well yes, check any source
Replier: you’re a unionist liar
Erm well I am a unionist but even if I wasn’t what I’ve said is factually correct
Was there a huge amount of inconvenience to pedestrians? Wasn’t it just that the pavement was cut in half for a while?Quote:

I’m not even a whisky drinker!Quote:
