    I'm getting married next September, so I will remember your words in the future. Just for the record though, I'm not expecting any cards from anyone but family, and I do expect most people will be freeloading as well!

    People who stand in the work kitchen for ages chatting standing in front of the fridge where the milk is.

    MOOOOOVE!

    Are they oblivious to the fact that they are in the way, or do they like the power of people having to request they move? It's a bloody big kitchen. There are loads of places to stand that are not in front of the fridge.

    And when they do move it's only slightly so you have to squeeze the milk out through the tiniest crack in the door.

    ARGH!

    People that think they're some kind of don but they work in recruitment. The amount of people I know who are so smug about the fact they didn't go to uni and are 'so successful' at work despite the fact they left school with no qualifications... You work in recruitment! Literally the easiest job ever. People always want jobs, it's not like you're offering them a ****.

    I also hate the fact that T URD is censored. How is T URD rude!? Even my mum says T URD and she considers crap a rude word!

    I did a stint in recruitment and it definitely isn't (at first) and requires long hours. Fancy a beer with your mates? Nope, sorry, that's when everyone else wants a chat.

    Although you are right, recruiters tend to give it the biggun without realising that the hours they put in for an average wage probably put them on about a fiver an hour.

    A job and salary that flatters to deceive.

    Grown up s who get hysterical about Star Wars and buy merchandising meant for children like figurines or Star Wars branded colouring books.

    It's a children's film FFS.

    Wacky Xmas jumpers.

    Grow up , you imbeciles. Xmas is for children and helping out poor people , not for your self indulgent nostalgic trip back to a Xmas that never even existed apart from in your imagination.

    The lack of any decent new films that consequently makes me have to fork out loads of money on expensive BluRay box set versions of DVD box sets that I already have, even though I only bought those to replace the VHS box sets I originally had in the first place .

    Why , because the bland homogenised corporate culture we are forced to live in makes it virtually impossible for any artist/film maker/musician to create anything special, new and exciting.

    How there is a social media outrage because Quality Street have apparently shrunk the size of their tins.

    Surely when you buy something like that , you have a look at the size and weight of aforementioned tin, then look at the price , then evaluate how tasty you think the contents of that tin might be and then make a decision as to whether you should,buy it or not.

    You don't go , oh well when I was 6 the Quality Street tin looked the size of a tractor wheel, so now 30 years later it looks like a normal sized tin of poorly made but expensively advertised chocolates , I'm outraged by this injustice and will be writing to my MP about it.

    Stephen Fry.

    Elitist , patronising, talentless snob who somehow becomes the nations darling because he knows lots of big words and bumbles in a likeable affable manner.

    This is a joke he actually said on live TV. No word of a lie, you can look it up.

    " I like Sainsburys. Why.? Because it keeps,the scum out of Waitrose"

    Replace the word scum with women, homosexuals, racial minorities, old people etc and then imagine that joke being said on prime time TV.

    Apparently he's a champion of human rights , just as long as they re not those frightful oiks.

    Ha ha yes. Reading back , that does come across as a tirade of posts, on Xmas eve of all nights.

    I'm not really that grumpy, just drunkenly letting off steam after accidentally waking up the nipper whilst putting his Santas sack in his room.

    And then the other 25% end up tasting the same as the gross 75%...

    Finding a job you'd love to do that closes applications in January, when you've still got 6 months of uni left.

    So apply then. Sounds like you've nothing to lose, showing a real interest does absolutely no harm at all and they might offer you an option that works around your remaining uni time. Very worst case scenario is they paper sift you out.

    Or actually quit your degree if they give you the job. You can always go back and do the last year later in life if you need to.

    It's better to regret something you've done rather than something you haven't done.

    The two i've looked at both require a degree and both say start immediately. I might apply anyway just to see what happens, but presumably I'd need to make it clear that i'm still doing a degree?

    Yeah, I wouldn't lie. If it's a lengthy application process which might end up with you wasting a lot of time only to see it binned within a minute you could ring and have a chat with whoever is in charge of recruitment and seek their advice.

    Dont get me wrong , I love kids ( although I couldnt eat a whole one) and love taking my son to football , but I find the new trend for players bringing their kids onto the pitch at every occasion a bit annoying. Dennis Wise started it, which says it all really.

    Being a football fan, I am more than willing to go along with the facade of the idolatry of footballers, whilst casually ignoring the fact that apart from being good at football they are generally, unremarkable and mainly dull human beings.

    But do I have to do extend that facade ( and therefore further my own subconscious humiliation) to their family as well ?

    What are you doing on my feed?

    I thought Id blocked you and your dull, unfunny and tiresome comments ages ago.

    If you werent so pathetic and insignificant, Id actually spend another 30 secs working out how to block your posts, but I really cant be bothered.

    The discordant assault on the ears that is the popular middle of the road song "Sledgehammer" that was shat out by one Peter Gabriel.

    I have heard that poxy song about 20 too many times and I'm sick, sick, sick of its inane burbling. It's like having warm sick injected into your ear drums.

    And the inanity of the lyrics. It must have taken all of half an hour to write. "You could be a bumper car, BUMPING...yeah, yeah, yeah....you could be a dumper truck, DUMPING...yeah, yeah, yeah....you could be a roll of tin foil, FOILING....yeah, yeah, yeah" and so on.

    What a load of shiny shyte! Who is it that likes and buys this sort of thing?
