Stupid little things that bug you

From maths lessons at school;

“Show you’re workings out”.

My swedish fitness instructor says the same thing.

Americans voting for the orange idiot?

Or Hasda’s

Or this shop being prefixed with "The"

I've never heard of anyone going to The Marks and Spencer's, The Morrison's or The Tesco's

My Facebook "reels" feed has recently become full of male body transformation videos showing obese lads becoming "ripped".
While it's commendable that these lads want to make these changes to themselves, personally as a retired bloke with a "dad bod", I have no body image issues, and not really sure why I get bombarded with this sort of content.
I'm just happy I'm able to stay relatively fit for my age, but I guess younger more impressionable chaps may feel inadequate and body conscious after being bombarded with this sort of content, and for this reason I find it a tad disturbing.

Is the hidden message that you are a fat bastard ?


Just askin'

 

[crooky]

People that just repost news on places like Discord, WhatsApp etc without any input of their own and have no discussion about it.

Surely if you're interested enough to post it then you surely have an opinion on it or want to discuss it?

Otherwise you're just spamming news I could have read anywhere.

Places with shite WiFi. The message "connected without internet" must be one of the most stupid messages in the history of communication. Why the fuck would I want to connect to WiFi unless it was to get on the bloody internet.

 

[Bill Walker]

People who say or write " it should of" or "he could of".

Of instead of have.

Customer satisfaction questionnaires.
Completed one for Direct Line which had numerous questions regarding a Home and Contents policy I purchased from them. At the end they then asked me if I agreed to them again contacting me to find out how satisfied I was with questionnaire I had just completed!

This seems to be very common on Avanti West Coast trains.

And Transport for Cattle, sorry Transport for Wales. And in remote McDonalds.

British Gas, every single time you contact them, they call you back with a recorded message satisfaction survey even though I’ve said I don’t want a call back. Infuriating.

Of instead of have.

I admit to being "old school" but I do cringe when I hear people say "shudda", "cudda", "wudda" etc.,
the words even get written in their bastardised form.
You know standards are definitely on the slide when BBC TV news presenters (including the sainted Clive Myrie) talks about the Hamas invasion of twenny-twenny three and his colleague Fiona Bruce with her "might OF.

 

[laserblue]

People on TV who say slither instead of sliver (of meat. cheese, metal, land, etc.). Clive Myrie is one such culprit as is Jamie Oliver but there are many others who are seemingly unaware that slither (verb) is what a snake does and doesn't replace the noun sliver.

 

[.db.]

Posh people who pronounce ‘tt’ in the middle of words as ‘dd’ to make themselves sound cooler and more working class.

Pretty become preddy
Better becomes bedder
Splitting becomes splidding
Committed becomes commidded
etc.

Just makes them sound like knobs.
