Things you hate IV

Red wine.

 

Winter vomiting bug.

 

Yes. One of the less pleasant insects in an English garden.

 

Now I've been suffering from beer hangovers recently. Switched to the red wine last night and pretty much OK today.

Was drinking Rioja, not sure if the grape/type makes any difference.

 

I only get beer hangovers if I go to the pub. If I stick to my cans of Vocation, Heart and Soul, I can drink 15-20 and wake up fine.

 

Same - Christmas party last Thursday, had about 7 pints and felt like absolute death all of Friday. Could sink that at home and get up at 8am for kids football with no real problems.

 

Asahi gives me a headache, otherwise I can generally avoid a hangover

 

I think there's a difference between draft and canned beer.

If I'm drinking at home, I get through easily 4 330ml cans per hour. There's no queue for the bar and no exchanging of money. Just opening my fridge and caning them.

I drink less in the pub and feel worse for it.

 

I'm sure there's all sorts of weird **** in the pipes.

We've all tasted a pint with a hint of cleaning fluid.

 

I am sure that the Red Lion keeps clean pipes.

 

Exactly this. A 330ml bottle will take 10 minutes at home, unless I'm cooking, doing laundry or having an argument with the kids, when it will be 15 minutes. Tonight in the pub I had 3 pints in 1.5 hours, but will feel worse. Why??

 

No need to advertise it. Xmas is already bleeding depressing.

 

Cleaning up after house parties.

My in laws are a decent bunch but Jesus when they come for a party its like we have been invaded by Viking marauders.

 

They’re not Japanese, then?!

 

I’m guessing they’re Scandinavian…

 

Ladbaby. If ever a joke wasn’t funny the first time.

 

Couldn't agree more. He's an insufferable chode that seems to think he can force his weak, self promoting "humour" on everyone.

Apparently only 20% of the money from streams of his songs ends up in the pocket of charities and last year he went on a self-righteous rant that others shouldn't challenge for number one against him as his is for charity.

Utter c*nt.

 

Made up ‘amusing’ characters in adverts that are about as amusing as herpes.

For example the Jimmy Carr, Kenco ‘Cofficionado’ adverts trying to flog cheap coffee like its hipster nectar. Yuk.

 

Don't accuse Jimmy Carr of being made up. He'll try and get his tax back if confirmed as a fictional entity.

 

Seem to remember a debate on here last year about me and a few others having never heard of him. Safe to say 12 months later this is the very next time I’ve heard of him again.

 

May it remain that way.

 

Yes, I was astonished.

 

When you get your tablet back from warranty repair after nearly a month away and pleased it's back for Xmas dodging the post office industrial action, only to discover that whilst it now charges again one of the speakers hasn't been reconnected.

 

Taps that don’t tell you which is hot and which is cold, so you have to run both for a full minute before you can find out which is which and shave.

Hotel showers installed by 5 feet tall Thai plumbers, which come up to my shoulders and require me to double up if I want to get my hair wet.

 

My heart bleeds for you.

 

Tell me about it. Worse than when your G&T has slightly too much ice in it and you need to ask for a straw because the top of the drink is just watery tonic.

 

He's right - it's worse as a carer because you haven't got the time to stand around trying to discover which is hot and which is cold. I have to deal with about 30 different kitchens, so you can't even really remember from one house to another.

I've had to wash up in cold water or taken someone a nice glass of lukewarm water enough times.

 

You win.
There must be a charity set up to deal with the consequences of such anguish.

 

Hang on, I always thought cold was left and hot was right. Are there such installations where this isn't correct?

 

Personalised number plates with 'OPR' as the three letters, utilising a screw/coloured cover cap right next to the O, so their muppet drivers big it up that they're Quarter Pound of Rubbish supporters.

 

I've never really got personalised number plates. For me it's just a car, the plate is it's random number plate. Each to their own and I've nothing against those that do. Just never been bothered.

Though in a turn about face worthy of an Italian, the house round the corner does have a pretty decent Watford number plate so I have considered knocking on his door and offering them some money for it, especially random as we live over 100 miles away.

 

Round the corner is 100 miles away? How big is your garden?

 

Ha! You know Prince William supports Villa. Well I, Harry support Watford. England is my garden.

Horace goes up north - Harry goes to America. It's all there.

Meghan says hi.

 

Never got the having your initials thing, but if it makes a word of witty quip without random spacing and screw positioning I think It's ok.

Bid on ME15TER when it was released but someone got in before me. Last time I looked it was up for sale for 25K.
