Things that annoy you more than they should.. 11:44 - Nov 12 with 29962 views_clive_baker_

The guy in the row behind me at PR who calls Harness Harkness. Grinds my gears.

Non football related but people who overuse the word 'genuinely'. The only thing worse is when people say 'generally' when they really mean 'genuinely'.

The rise of Christmas sandwiches or worse... christmas burgers. The mere thought of turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce and other seasonal accoutrements on top of a burger is the pinnacle of wonky boblocks.

People who use the word 'actually' to try to win an argument. As if adding that word suddenly makes something a fact, and that makes them right and you wrong. Boolarks.

Similarly people who say 'end of'. Who are they to decide it's the end of the argument? If I completely disagree then I'm gonna carry on disagreeing whether you try to tell me I can or not. Who made you the boss of everything all of a sudden?

You're 'a melt'. What sort of sad word is that and what does it even mean??!!


Melt just means idiot basically.

All's fine so long as they keeptheir fancy pigeons in their lofts. But when they get bored and let them go, that's when all hell breaks loose.

Caused mayhem in my part of the Ipswich-Shotley-Sudbury Golden Triangle.

Neighbours having cross words, people tutting and suggesting dark solutions to the pigeon problem, armed crimes taking place, police involved.

Mayhem.

I would suggest that this 'mayhem' was already going on before the pigeons flew in. You know how it goes, as soon as someone different shows up they get all the blame for society's ills.

Yeah, but then it also means someone who is a wimp or pathetic.

So when someone says "Shut up, you melt", do they mean idiot or wimp or both?

This is why I think it's such a totally crap word and tends to be used by blokes trying to act hard or teenagers trying to look cool.

In my local coffee shop someone asked if they could get a cappuccino. The barista replied "No, Sir. I'll get it. You just drink it."

Cheered me up no end.

How safe, boring and tame modern rock (specifically modern British rock). I don't mind Indie rock but every rock band now is like that with their soft vocals, happy lyrics and clean riffs.

Yes I know there are great underground heavier acts but we need to bring it back to the mainstream.

I feel like we need another Nirvana or RATM or a Nu-Metal/Grunge movement and bring back the angry, heavy, and angsty emotions back to the radio. Don't be scared to let all your emotions and scream like a maniac or smash your drum set.

I think music like that would suit the current political and economic state this country is in right now than the safe indie rock that dominates alternative rock.

Poetry read aloud in an affected "poetic voice"

Fiction written in the first person present tense - "I am going through the door and looking at the ..." etc. No you're not, you're writing down what your character saw earlier and coming across as pretentious and irritating. Nearly as bad when it's written in the 3rd person too. Nothing wrong with good old-fashioned "I went" or "she went".
