Ice, ****ing almost gave myself a bad one this morning. Currently off work with nerve damage to my back and hip, putting the bin out this morning and slid all the way down my steep driveway and onto my arse, more pride hurt than anything else thankfully 🫣

People who don't understand how to scrape their cars properly.
Stuck behind a guy this morning who had obviously scraped his windscreen but left piles of snow on the roof and bonnet. As soon as he picked up a bit speed their were big chunks of snow flying backwards hitting cars behind him.
It takes less than 5 ****ing minutes to clear your car properly.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

TV chefs, who, when finely cutting stuff, make a point of looking away for a few seconds and speak to someone or the camera, ‘Look at my knife skills, ain’t I great ‘ they’re thinking. I’m baying for blood, one of these days.

TV headline news about wintry conditions. If it was July it'd be a story.
Since when did we become such a bunch of snowflakes?

Folk who post on Social Media about how bad a drama or soap has become and lie about watching it. “I stopped watching it years ago, it’s far to violent now, the storylines are ridiculous now and there’s no humour anymore” 😂😂😂😂😂They know an awful lot about a programme/soap they stopped watching years ago!

They've changed the English voice announcements on the Berlin S-Bahn, I've now got some Yank telling me what station we're approaching and it does my head in.

What’s the difference between anti social and unsocial behaviour, letter from the council about unsocial behaviour in the street, thinking it’s about my dirty noisy neighbours who have been a nightmare the last few nights.
Council came yesterday and swept the gutter in the street to clear all the fag ends. Disgusting.

My sister loves internet shopping from China and got me one of those a couple of years back. Great this year with the snow we've had but completely useless with a typical frost. This year's present is a small box which "magically removes all the snow on the outside of the car, from the inside of the car." A few internet searches later and it's most likely to be an air freshener.....

Along the same lines a few years ago, I fell for a minor scam with one of these companies and was so pissed off that I made a point of checking out reviews on Trustpilot for any of these companies (Chinese as it happened). 99% of them were getting terrible reviews and I always put a comment on their adverts on Facebook, warning folk about their unscrupulousness, using the term ‘’scam’. I eventually got a warning ( from Facebook, I assume) warning me to stop and desist my negative reviewing. These companies and hundreds more are still flooding Facebook.

I cook almost everything from scratch. I waste nothing. If I have an onion left over I chop it, freeze it and use it the following week, same with things like celery, chilli or herbs. I keep a big tub of chicken bones and use them to make stock when I have enough, I chuck certain peelings in with that as well.
A couple of years back I could do a weekly shop for 4 of us for about £55 which I accept was pretty low but the lack of ready meals and the like definitely keeps costs down. That was a good varied menu. Plenty veg, fruit for snacks, fillings for sandwiches, a few treats etc etc. The same shop now is about £25-30 more expensive. Some of the percentage increases on things like butter, pasta, tinned tomatoes, baked beans (the latter 3 all being cheap staples) is huge and it all adds up. 50p here and £1 there on a list of 30-40 items quite easily becomes £20+.
I'm lucky that I can afford to absorb it and in some cases make cheaper choices but there will be some who just can't and it's only getting worse.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

AI, or its use of. I saw something about a new film I didn’t know they were making. Watched a trailer for it on YouTube and thought it looked dire. Turns out it wasn’t the actual trailer but AI generated. It looked like a real movie trailer. With AI and deepfake technology that sort of stuff is only going to get worse.
