Guinness aficionados telling me that the extra cold version ruins it.
It comes from the same keg, if I want it extra cold that is up to me.

Same people who probably believe the myth that 'two pouring' it actually matters as opposed to being a relic from the changeover from cask to keg and part of the huge marketing ploy that drives everything Guinness does.

An old moaner used to always go on about it in a bar I worked in so we gave him a pint one poured and one rested and topped up and of course he couldn't tell the difference.

It's all about personal preference but chilling drinks/food definitely diminishes taste and aroma.

Of course chilling food and drink alters the taste and often allows one ingredient to become more prominent than normal. It's personal taste as you say and some folk just can't accept that.
The old red wine served at room temperature is another classic example. Room temperature in 2018 bears no comparison what so ever to room temperatutre of 30/40/50 years ago or longer. I like my red wine slightly chilled in the fridge not served at the current temp of my kitchen or living room.

Also on the theme of social media photos, any woman that does that "look down and away from the camera" pose can get themselves to f as far as I'm concerned.

I will only drink red wine from the fridge, Ive never understood the room temp thing. It has to be cold or I dont enjoy it.

The looks of disgust I got at the Sherton at a charity event when I removed a bottle of white from the chiller on the table to place my red in was priceless

I can't stand 'cute' photos of babies, kittens and/or puppies.
You know the ones where they are seen popping out of a teapot or the like.
Totally contrived and vomit-inducing.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the "Here we go" thread on the main board. I dinnae even read it but, it annoys me everytime it moves back up the page.

It does have one redeeming feature in that no one can start using puns and thinking they are funny

The Nationwide adverts with the 2 women singing and one of them playing the keyboard. Just annoying.

Absolute ****ers that park over two spaces in the hospital car park. I had to park at the side of the road in the car park or park in a disabled bay. What makes people think that it’s acceptable to do that? You see it everywhere you go, supermarket car parks are the worst for it. If you’re that worried about getting your car scratched get the ****ing bus.

I live a few minutes walk from Fort Kinnaird. Every single Saturday for the whole of December some stupid ****ing woman drove into our car park, parked her stupid ****ing Chelsea tractor across 2 spaces (which are already at a premium), strolled along the lane to the shopping centre (which has about 3000 spaces) then reappeared about 3 hours later laden with shopping bags with a stupid smug look on her stupid ****ing face and drove away.

Selfish and unnecessary.

Maybe you should have said, "Can I watch your car for you, missus?"

You must live quite close to me as I get that sort of thing as well. As you say December is the worst time for it. The guy next door to me had bought a car for his daughters birthday and he got so fed up of people parking he double parked it over someone who had parked in the street.

Playing devils advocate though, if one person parks badly over two spaces there’s a knock on effect where the next person has to park badly to get into a space, if the original bad Parker then drives away everyone that’s parked badly since then looks bad due to no fault of their own. (Think that makes sense)

I’m not talking about people parking badly(although that’s something that annoys me as well) it’s now become a thing where people deliberately park over two spaces to avoid their car being scratched. It’s bad enough in a normal car park, but in the hospital where you’re having to queue to get in, it’s completely unacceptable.

I used to drive an ancient ford mondeo and I was so tempted at times. That car was a complete tank. Eh6 hibby crashed it into my sisters house causing thousands of pounds of damage, but the old mondeo was unmarked.
