Clickbait headlines like 'Chelsea legend unrecognisable on beach holiday'.

Then you look at the pictures and unless Gianfranfo Zola has grown a foot and changed race it is quite clearly Didier Drogba but just a few years older.

The built in wardrobes that the previous owners of my house put in. Absolutely useless. The middle of the wardrobe is pretty much inaccessible. The hanging rails are also too far back into the wardrobe and inexplicably high so you are on your tiptoes leaning forward trying to even get anything at either end of the wardrobe. Anything in the middle is even worse. I’ve got a funeral tomorrow and just done my shoulder in trying to get to my rarely used funeral clothes. What’s more, got my suit out to find that it doesn’t fit any more so I’m going to have to make a trip to the shops just now

Pair of nikes where the left sole makes a popping noise when walking. No air pockets on the sole. Does my ****ing head in!!

Is there an air pocket that’s not visible? It may have been punctured by a nail or something sharp that’s been stood on. It’s a really frustrating noise though

Collecting relatives from Glasgow Airport, flight delayed so we were in the airport car park for 90 minutes...


...and the parking charge was 24 quid!

Who the **** are most of the folk playing Glastonbury?

It’s really started pissing me off in recent years but I can’t quite put my finger on it. I think it’s been since the “ooooh Jeremy Corbyn” **** when he did a speech there that makes me think it’s just a champagne socialists paradise.

And the line up is terrible. What is LCD Soundsytem and how do you make it stop?

Got picked up from Edinburgh airport. We were in the car park less than 3 minutes. £5. Shocker.

Tbf LCD Soundsystem have been about for close to 25 years. They were big when I went to Uni and that wasn't yesterday.

They looked old enough to have been around a while.

Can’t say I’d ever heard of them. Not gutted about it though.

Princes St as opposed to Princess St, or anywhere from Pilrig St to Elm Row as Leith Walk.

Ah but is it Princes St or Prince's St?




On a similar note: People who write St Andrew's Square when they mean St Andrew Square.


That one fair rips ma knittin'!

I won't go in till the passengers are out and ready to go Generally it's my kids so they walk to the long stay which is a free 10 minute entry/exit. I didn't mind the odd pound about 10 tears back but it's now simply legalised piracy.

I was standing ready to go, the wife pulled up beside me, jumped in and straight to the exit.

£5 please. Robbing swines.

Probably been mentioned already but joggers who have their dogs clipped on a lead to their waist while they run. You can get plenty of exercise by walking a dog and it also gives the dog pleasure by being able to do all the things dogs like to do - unlike being forced to trot alongside a selfish owner.

The waist harness has been banned for at least a year from Parkrun because of lack of control of the dog and a number of accidents.

I think the poster was getting confused by the 'cats in your rucksack while you skydive' pet peeve.

[Pretty Boy]

'Make sure you take a pen to the polling station on Thursday, they'll just rub out the pencil'.

One of those things that only became a thing because of social media. If there was mass vote rigging then that involves opening the ballot boxes so why would a pen or pencil make any difference? Surely they would just remove 'undesirable' votes regardless of how they were written.

Worth noting that one reason pencil is used is specifically to avoid invalidated papers, wet ink can smudge or transfer to another box when folded, pencil can't.

Reminds me of the Brexit referendum when the leave side were constantly going on about a rigged vote........until they realised they were going to win.
