whelk Posted February 20 Author Posted February 20 Commentator’s seeming to think it is psychological genius to have a player other than the penalty taker hold the ball beforehand. Yeah no way Salah is taking this penalty as Curtis Jones is holding the ball……there’s a shock.

Lighthouse Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Overtaking a lorry at 58mph about half a mile from your exit off a dual-carriageway and you're stuck behind somebody doing 59mph in the right hand lane. 'Annoy' might be an understatement, it's a special kind of hatred like no other.

Someone not knowing about a river makes you want to throw rocks at a tv? Bit of an over reaction, not least because you’d waste a presumably good tv. Save the scorn for people intentionally stupid

I keep a small pile of keep sake river bed stones, from my travels, in the TV room. Last week, I was so angry I nearly threw one from the South American Danube at it. 1

Bit of an over reaction, not least because you’d waste a presumably good tv. Save the scorn for people intentionally stupid Nah, I've got more pent up scorn in my body that I know what to do with. I reserve the right to liberally scatter my scorn as I see fit P.s. it's bricks, not rocks. I reserve the later for those that design impossible to open crumpet packets Next... People that lecture others on how to deploy their scorn.... 😁 Edited February 22 by trousers

Not as bad as when QI or University Challenge have an incorrect 'right' answer to a question. You come to expect idiocy and ignorance from day time game shows, the contestants are specially selected. 1

Might be an idea to pop down to your library and see if they have a book that might help you.

whelk Posted February 22 Author Posted February 22 I was thinking of going on Dragon’s Den with a pitch that I want to set up an agency for anyone who has questions about rivers. Aiming at an audience that have turned their backs on the internet. Given me an idea for one of the interview questions

rallyboy Posted Saturday at 08:28 Posted Saturday at 08:28 People, mainly under thirty, who can't hold cutlery properly and get greedy at the buffet. You see them stabbing around gripping the fucking handles the wrong way in their chubby fists, piling up the food of the buffet then leaving half of it because they can't transport it from the plate to their face. And hold the spoon at the thin end you fucking morons, no....with the dish bit pointing up.. 1 1
