My 5 Room 101 items People carriers/MPV's Hate them, hate them, hate them, you can't park next to them cos they take up the next bay, they are invariably driven by people who have bought them to counteract their crap driving abilities, drive half on your side of the road and contain, at an absolute push, 1 and a half people. Also those stupid glorified pick up tricks, blatantly only owned by weekend warrior types / accountants from the city. Heard that liberals were toying with the idea of increased taxes for bigger cars, my vote decider. Street survey people More specifically those that overlook you. What, am I not good enough for you? Foreign taxi drivers Intent on raising my cleaning bill by ruining my underpants. I have genuinelly feared for my life in atleast 3 foreign taxis, in Sweden we had a Moroccan driver who couldn't speak any language other than Moroccan and who decided to reverse a bit of the motorway where we had missed a turning, I was jelly legged when I got out. England flags during sporting tournaments The most annoying type are the plastic flags in cars, normally put there by people who don't even know what colour we play in, or at best, will comment that Emile Heskey isn't that good in a manner like they have worked out the enigma code. Henmania - do sales of the Sun really slump that badly in the summer? Beggars between cash-points 'Have you got any money mate?', I have never been bought up to lie but what can you do? Best retort ever was by a mate who said that technically the tramp was better off as he has just found out that he was overdrawn. Sorry for the bitter rant, in a foul mood today, best to get something constructive out of it. |

Chavs - Low life ill-mannered vermin with questionable taste and unfortunately a propensity to reproduce at a faster rate than the rest of us. Sister Ray - Weel documented on here but have a dubious policy of hiding limited edition releases for a few months then charging ten times the price. Tutters - You're walking along, realise you're on collision course with someone else, you both switch paths to attempt to avoid but switch into each other. Rather than smile, they tut as if it was your fault. Cold egg - You're tucking into a salad and then some buffoon cuts up a boiled egg and throws it into the mix. Oh and fried egg and beans mixing together... *shudder* FCUK - Now making a loss because the unfunny fcukers didn't realise their crass marketing campaign only appealed to morons and even they eventually got bored of the joke. |

Bono – In days gone by, Dublin was able to proudly boast Oscar Wilde and James Joyce as its greatest sons. Now they give Bono the freedom of the city. There is no finer example of declining cultural values that the excessive adoration heaped on this tone-deaf, embarrassing, inane, dad-dancing, stammering, do-gooding, bleeding hearted, style-free, aubergine mullet in petrol station shades. Glaswegian holiday makers – During the annual Glasgow Fair fortnight, inner city dwellers, for whom the sight of salt water next to sand is the gleaming zenith of sophistication, arrive in their droves to the dreich Ayrshire coast. Their very presence forces up the price of practically all the local cultural delights: fish suppers, ice cream, beer, prostitutes, even crazy golf. Add to that their systematic littering, fouling of and fornication on the beach and their subsequent, brass-necked temerity in describing our picturesque stretch of coastland as “the shitty shore”. Go to Tenerife in future, you neds. Charmin Toilet Paper Adverts – You know them; the ones where a cartoon bear approaches a tree with a bog roll in his paw and a newspaper under his arm. Especially disgusting when you’re eating your dinner. At least the Andrex puppy sweetly glosses over the vile reality that the product is all about wiping your arse. Beach novels – A sparse plot spread ludicrously thinly through a block of paper whose thickness is rivalled only by that of its reader. Popcorn – What sort of race are we that hands over hard earned money to receive a waste paper basketful of sodium encrusted polystyrene off-cuts with the aroma of a sumo wrestler’s jockstrap? And why is it utterly impossible for practically anybody to endure a Hollywood blockbuster without one? |

Morrissey Post Smiths of course. I wouldn’t really miss anything of Morrissey solo and I’d give a wide berth to the misanthrophic, sociopathic, little Englander personality he seems to have developed. Maybe Joyce and Rourke had a point….. Glastonbury Now some sort of rite of passage rather than musical gathering, it’s a chance for middle class students (check the ticket prices) to wear stupid jester’s hats and take cheap speed and come home thinking they’re real men. Glastonbury is a money spinning event for the organisers and the political trimmings are there as a sop. Same goes for Carling and V and all the other big ones. They’re a triumph of conservatism and should be avoided/ shut down. Red Hot Chili Peppers THE most overrated band of our times. Collectively they are a dire old funk/junk band. That they have decent musical taste (shown by their Mojo compilation CD) just proves the gulf between what they know and what they do. Radio 1 Now that Peel’s gone, is there anything to justify its existence? Moyles, Colin and Edith, Zane Lowe (who doesn’t get that ‘new’ doesn’t necessarily mean ‘good’)? Nope – shut it down! Same goes for XfM if they lose John Kennedy. In the words of the Clash, they’re “in tune with nothing”. Celebrity Watching a group of apparently famous people on some terrible Elton John tribute tonight, I realised the problem is “celebrities” – how can anyone believe that any of the fuckers (Bono, Sting, etc) have anything valid to say? They don’t. They have one talent (a dubious one at that) and at the same time they are thick as shite so they should shut the fuck up and play some tunes. As soon as a pop star gets the idea to spout off, he/she should be put down. Starve them of the oxygen of publicity, and if that doesn’t work, nuke their houses. |

On a pedestrian bridge near where I live there is still, written in what looks like emulsion, the legend- I LOVE THE UNDERTONES By my reckoning that's been there for about 20 years now. That's graffiti. |

Damn, how easy it was in childhood and how I now understand parents who came home from work and with a tired look but with a smile on their face greeted me. And I limply arranged scandals, littering, and the like. Thank God they brought me up with dignity. As I now learned, they used CBD https://premiumjane.com/topicals/2-oz-c ... oa-butter/ at that time to better focus on work. Their advice helps me a lot in my life as I now have children myself and I follow them very closely. Thank God they grow up decent and do not litter anywhere and peacefully, we can solve any problem. |

Hi everyone! Guys, wanted to ask, do you have some extra income and if you do, how do you get it? I decided that I need some more money and I am about to start trading cryptocurrencies with bot. Is it a good idea in your opinion? |

This is a well-thought of piece that made it easy for people to understand the whole point. |
