Stupid little things that bug you

I hate headlines that say "Trent this..." and "Trent that...."

Its not bloody Trent. It's "Alexander-Armstrong". If that's too long for a headline, just call him "Arnold" or "AA".

Do you see headlines about City referring to Kevin, or Erling, or Jeremy?
Tbf it’s not Alexander Armstrong either.
 
Dad having to pay £16:90 for 24 hours TV in hospital yesterday so he could watch the match
My sister has recently had two stints in hospital. She used a tablet which has SkyGo app but SkyGo doesn’t work in hospitals somehow, so she couldn’t watch any of the Sky channels. Luckily Iplayer, ITVX and other apps were ok to use.
 
The cheeky fucker who won my EBay item yesterday, then five minutes later asked to cancel it!!!
Why fucking enter the auction then?
Took him up on the cancellation for fear of him claiming the item was "broken" or some other shit.
Had to re list it and wait anothet week now.
 
Interstellar travel is not possible. Not by us, not by anybody.

Even a child knows that people are never going to be able to swim non-stop from (say) Dover to Sydney. And interstellar travel is about a million times harder than that.

People who say, “who knows, in 100 years or 500 we may make a discovery….” are merely dreamers.

One potentially suitable destination is Proxima Centauri B at 4.32 light years. Another is Ross 128 B. at 11+ light years.

That's between 10,000 and 150,000 years travel time at NASA's current top speed.

The dreamer says, “but improvements in speed…..” OK... We double the speed - That's between 5,000 and 75,000 years travel time.

“Generation ships” are the purest of pure science fiction.

On the face of it, it's a good idea until we think about thousands of generations of humans travelling non-stop through space, living on food tablets and recycled water, arguing about who should land the ship after 5000 years of living the life of slugs.

And then... “OOPS, there's nothing here, let's turn around and go back…..”
