Stupid little things that bug you

Constant replays, cut shots to managers bench, focusing on someone in the crowd, long shots on the subs bench, more replays. Showing famous (usually utd person) people in the crowd, replays from every angle - because they want to show off their 14 cameras....

Just point a camera at the pitch and let us watch the game, not the drama. I want football just football, like at the ground.
 

I think they should allow pedestrians to scrape past cars parked like this. They wouldn’t be insured either I hope.

When my lad was little I was pushing his pram along the pavement when I came to a car parked like this. I left a long scratch down the side of the car as I squeeze through. I wasn't prepared to risk my lad getting hit by walking into a busy road.

Some **** parked a flatbed truck on a corner near where I live and took up the whole pavement, at the time I saw it a woman was pushing a buggy onto the road to get past the truck.

I don't normally do this but knocked on the door and asked if the truck was his which he replied yes, I told him he was a cheeky bastard and needs to move it, he ummed and ahhed but moved it eventually with an ear bashing that the pavement isn't his and people had to walk around it on a corner to get past.

I’ve accidentally knocked a few wing mirrors out of position in the past but they’re a lot harder to do these days.





Err, I would imagine.

This could be a thread in itself.

The half-time interviews are the fucking worst of the lot.
 
Perhaps there is a contractual obligation but what's the point, at the end of a film, to roll the credits in a tiny font and scroll them with Usain Bolt pedalling the machine.

I used to tell my kids that my name was on there, and to look out for it.

I expect to end my days in a very cheap care home.

I think it was a technique originally used in porn films to scare people into thinking that their eyesight had deteriorated during the previous 90 minutes, perhaps?
 
commentators' meaningless whitterings:

Let me tell you (please, go ahead - that's sort of why you're sitting there)

In no way, shape or form (presumably for those who have always struggled with the meaning of the expression 'in no way')

At this moment in time (as opposed to a moment in what else?)

One hundred percent (when they mean 'yes')

I'm sorry, but... (why are you apologising?)


At least they don't yet use 'a better version of himself' - I heard a scouser (not that I'm a basher of all things Liverpool (not while there's a chance I'll get my hubcaps back, anyway :-) )) on the radio after Klopp left, talking about all the things he'd achieved for the club.
This utter git must have used the expression 'he helped the players to be better versions of themselves...' 7 or 8 times in a 2-minute clip. I was screaming at the radio in best FOC fashion and nearly went right up the back of a truck. Maybe he'd placed a spread bet. Git.
