I love this one.people who think that complaining constantly about music makes them sound knowledgeable.
You know you pay an extra 50p for every adjective they use to describe it? Plus a pound for 'organic'.the relatively recent tendency in england for food to be both ridiculously flouncy and still not very good. cf the organic herbed cheddar, onion marmalade and rocket ciabatta sandwich i was forced to buy in kensington the other day when what i really wanted was an unfussy, mouth-burningly mature cheddar cheese and branston pickle crusty roll, but the shop had none of the required components.
As a paid up member of the sundried tomato eating classes, I'd like to cosign that one too. Give me a packet of Walkers or (if I'm splashing out) McCoys any day.the above annoyance applies especially to crisps. no, i do not want sea salt and balsamic vinegar, sour cream and chive or any other stupid middle-class corruption of a tried and tested, classic flavour. now kindly go fuck yourselves.
a further note to fancy crisp manufacturers: TAKE THE BASTARD SKINS OFF THEM AND COOK THEM UNTIL THEY ARE CRISP, NOT LIKE SHARDS OF BLOODY GLASS, THANK YOU.

The state of music at the moment isn't exactly favouring those who would like to see some innovation, or even a bit of flair and imagination. Those who actually value music should be pushing for something a bit more vibrant and involved right now. You wouldn't like to see the music you love reach more people?
On a similar theme, it really pisses me off when restaurant or (more often) gastropub menus give you five lines with every detail of every element of the meal, as if it makes a great difference to your decision precisely what the components of the dressing for the side salad are. And you don't need to tell me the breed and origin of the sheep from which my chop is coming, I'd like to be able to assume that your chef is capable of picking a decent lump of meat himself.
Have you been reading Dubstepforum?my current bug bear is people who think that anything but unrelenting positiveness and praise, is negative and any criticism, dissent or opinion contrary to the status quo is being disruptive or unhelpful.
my current bug bear is people who think that anything but unrelenting positiveness and praise, is negative and any criticism, dissent or opinion contrary to the status quo is being disruptive or unhelpful. People who like obedient arselickers and yes men, even if what they do isn't very good. That's truly a bad situation to be in.

...oh, and before i forget, anyone who uses the word "chav" deserves to get a kicking at any time of day, whether the people doing the kicking are drunk or not.

A little piece in the Guardian the other day that neatly sums up everything that annoys me about the paper, entitled Are we using too much olive oil?, by Zoe 'Pointless Blitherings' Williams.
yeah wtf is that about?people who become incapable of socializing normally with me because I don't drink alcohol.

Recent research has linked it to the activation of a normally inactive gene (the larger of a pair of genes called girlsblouse).As someone who does drink, I'm more than aware of why people don't.
