Stupid little things that bug you

Why is all the stuff I like to eat bad for me & all the stuff I dont like good for me?

When people say things like:

“HIMARS system”, when the ‘S’ in HIMARS stands for System. That’s the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System system.

“Can you tell me the ULN number?”, when the ‘N’ in ULN stands for Number. That’s asking for the Unique Learner Number number.

“Can you send me the CTF file?”, when the ‘F’ in CTF stands for File. That’s asking for the Common Transfer File file.

Foreign people who speak English with a foreign accent. Like Arsene Wenger for example. He lived in London for over 20 years yet he spoke with a ridiculously strong French accent. All that speaking entails is making noises with your mouth. Why can't they get it right?

Bang on, if Steve McClaren and Joey Barton can master a foreign language surely Wenger can. He can't even pronounce his own name correctly.
It's Wenger you muppet not Venger.

Haha I used to think that all the time with Wenger.

Ruben Dias has been here two years and already has a Northern English twang to his accent. Wenger didn’t have one iota of Cockney in his accent after two decades.

I would rather hear a French accent than Cockmey.
 
People on radio phone in programmes who say "Thank you for taking my call.". They should be thanking you. If people didn't phone in there wouldn't be a show.

There's no orange in Jaffa Cakes. I used to work my student summers at McVitie's and the filling is apricot. At one time their adverts used to refer to the "scrumptious orangey bit in the middle" because it wasn't really orange.
