People who post things on Facebook, then delete it and re upload it ½hr later as they didn't get enough likes on the first post.
Or more telling, they post something like "Have just arrived at hospital!" And leave it at that.

They then lurk waiting for people to take the bait with some "Hope you're okay, babe x"

Attention-seeking clickbait at its most desperate

Inbox me hun x
After seeing the ‘wow’ reaction on my post, I would just like to add that I’m not asking anyone to inbox me haha

That’s usually the response when people ask what’s wrong after saying they’re at the hospital

Cultural appropriation. I’m sorry but wtf. Obviously it’s not ok to mock a culture or try to benefit from another culture financially (unless it’s to mock Scotland as it seems it’s ok to rip the piss out of our accent, skin tone, food, national dress, not to mention all the offensive stereotypes). I would never knowingly go out my way to offend someone/a whole culture. But one look on SM and you are made to feel every little thing is cultural appropriation. A white child who is obsessed with Moana and dresses up like her and twats out there calling it cultural appropriation the kid is 3 and loves Moana ffs. She is not claiming they culture, she is loving it and celebrating it. A non black person loves African inspired decor and shares some pics of their home on SM. Not claiming they are African or that they want to ‘steal’ the whole culture. Just that they love the styles and colours. That person is made to feel like absolute shit as it’s cultural appropriation, ugh NO!

The recent Adele thing was an eye opener though, as it seems it was mainly Americans shouting cultural appropriation and most Jamaican people saying nah calm down, it’s not, you don’t speak for us.

I don't drive and I've applied for soooo many jobs where I've been through the whole website application, inserting dates into drop down boxes etc and the last question is to do with needing to drive. Fuck that!

I once got rejected for a job and then a year or so later got another automated rejection email yeah, thanks for reminding me of that

I love my aunt dearly, but she does something like that.


For example she will say "the car broke down and I was late for church"
Then she will say the car broke down and ...

She now expects us to say and you were late for church.

She is 92 and if I didn't love her so much I would find it annoying.

Elf on the shelf. I've seen a local balloon shop already has those shitty "I'm back" balloons. It's a wank idea and I don't want to see what mischief your elf has been up to because it's not funny or original.

I am the original Grinch.
And that's is just one reason I am glad my kids are grown up! I struggled with the tooth fairy, I would never have coped with the sodding elf!

I work in customer services so have to run our customers through security on each call. Mainly, their name and address.
I ask them to confirm their details but they answer as if its a game show and are unsure of the answer. Like their tone goes up at the end as if giving an unsure answer.
Grates on me.

"Please can you confirm your full name and address?"

"Jane (upward tone) Brown...? 27 Ham (upward tone) road?..uy8 (upward tone) 9tf??"

What i would love to say.....
"You sure? You sound unsure....final answer??"

And the best one....

"I am on your website and trying to order somethingbut when I click it it says out of stock. Can I order it with you?"

The entire content of this article.


If you don't want to read it, there are two central issues:

1. People complained to Ofcom because Bake Off made a joke about tiny hands, which may have offended people with Poland Syndrome.

2. People complained to Ofcom because Paul Hollywood said that the rainbow-coloured bagels a contestant made, 'reminded him of the NHS'. The complaints were on behalf of the gay community who apparently have sole use of the rights to display a rainbow

My head hurts

I am 6ft tall, and it bugs me when new people come along and say "Gosh, you're tall aren't you?"

Nope, I'm only 3ft tall and walking on stilts, Sherlock!

People selling treat boxes on Facebook (chocs, cakes, etc) for prices which would be cheaper if you went to a supermarket to get the items.
