Wine. I don't care how unsophisticated my palate is,it all tastes like sour poison to me.
I haven’t drank alcohol in over 6 years now. Back in the day - I worked in Victoria Wine (a chain of booze shops in Scotland). We would get sent on wine tasting courses so we could recommend wine to customers. My idea of a nice red was Buckfast Tonic Wine 😂 They all tasted rotten and I could not comprehend how people could spend hours mulling over what one to buy!

True crime shows/police cam vids/murder documentaries.

It’s weird how people view them as entertainment. These are (were) real people and it seems disrespectful— as if they’re re-victimizing the victims, because now people are profiting off of what happened to them and their personal info has become public. It’s concerning how desensitized people have become to violent content.

The fact that the nights are cutting in meaning autumn and winter is looming. I’m sorry but there is nothing cosy about having to deice your car in the dark

All you can eat buffets. Always too much choice at a not great standard and never feels like I eat enough to justify the price. I'm sure it's all stodgier to fill people up quicker.

You have just unlocked a core memory of nipping down to the 'Vicky Wine' to pick up the nights carry out!!

Claw hair clips. They're bad for your hair. They're also pretty dangerous (especially when driving, etc.) which a lot of people don't realize.

Have stopped wearing them when driving because of the danger, they’re so uncomfortable though anyway

Wait, what’s the danger with wearing a plastic hair clip when driving? Does it apply to passengers too? Oh Christ is a new fear gonna be unlocked?

If you have to stop suddenly or get into a car crash, you basically have knives attached to your head. It can also give you a neck injury because the clip essentially pushes your head forward at an awkward angle if it hits the headrest. Or, if you're at the gym for example, and you fall or hit a piece of equipment the injury could be made worse by a claw clip.

Oh well feck. I would’ve thought that most of them are plastic and they’d break under not too much pressure, that our skulls would win in a fight, but that’s quite startling!

A neighbour of ours was in a car accident that was very minor as far as accidents go, but she had paint cans in the boot and driving a hatchback. The sudden stop of the crash combined with impact from behind sent a paint cans hurtling through huge car and hit her right against the back of her head. Permanent brain injury.

Jeans and Denim in general. Couldn't think of a more uncomfortable thing to wear
Same. The wide baggy ones are a lot more comfortable but they're not really my style. I also find jeans the least flattering bottom on me. But then i always struggle with figuring out what the wear on my bottom half as so many outfit ideas include jeans!!

Bank Holidays - More so the pressure of having to be 'on' the whole weekend. Events going off everywhere and generally the country goes a bit loopy. Part of me does like it but it gets less and less every year as just can't be arsed.
