People who consistently say "hundred percent" instead of just saying "yes".

Guilty. Also caught myself saying ‘I was super busy’ so now am wearing sackcloth for a month as my own penance

The Apprentice. But in particular how the phones goes at 5am and they are apparently all in bed and have 20 minutes to get ready before the cars arrive. Yet they are always ready, always immaculate, womens hair and make up perfectly done. No chance 8 women all get ready in that time

And you never see anyone masturbating so clearly staged.

Surely part of the car journey?

#timemanagement

For really effective time management you need to delegate the masturbation another team member. Id probably retain project manager on the coke though.

Fucking potholes.

The road has about 30 pot holes on it in the space of half a mile and when they actually bother to fill some in they only fill some of them its not the deep ones....clueless

Lumpy gravy. No excuses. Sieve it if you must, but don't serve it with lumps. 

Surely there has to be a way of using gravy lumps to fill the potholes effectively? What is science for, if not for this!? 🙂

Why on the animated credits for the BBC coverage of the World Indoor Athletics Championships do they have images of the javelin, hammer, and discus - 3 events that are not taking place ?

The fact multipack tins of soup all come in the same flavour, why can't they mix them so each day you can have a different taste. 4 days in a row I've had cream of Chicken 😶

Buy four different multipacks?

I will be when Starmer launches GB Energy, just waiting to sign up 🚩

It certainly sounds terrific. UK will be energy independent in 6 years including energy from waves (although I'm not sure that's going to happen in such a short space of time, they've been talking about a Severn barrage for over 20 years now and still haven't even come up with a design!).

Quite enjoying the bandana there.

Never worn one myself. Maybe aged 47 it's time to mix up my headwear and embrace some change.

That's not your channel?!

Oh great, I'm now a premium member of Only Cats

David Sullivan saying that if a Football Regulator is brought in "Anything to water down our income will make us less competitive. We may cease to be the top league so they may ruin an asset that we have."

The PL is far and away the richest league in the World, estimated to have twice the turnover of the next richest.

Marketing bollocks from Nike over the England shirt.

'Nike described the redesigned flag as "a playful update to the cross of St George" which "appears on the collar to unite and inspire".

A Nike spokesperson told media outlets: "The England 2024 Home kit disrupts history with a modern take on a classic.'

Looking forward to all their shirts having a playful update on their own logo. A silhouette of a child in a sweatshop perhaps.

Nike says its embracing the colours of the WC66 training kit. So random. Although saw on TV people being asked about it they say its promoting multiculturalism....eh?

Wasn't the 1966 kit black and white - certainly looks like it on all the old clips I've seen.

Personalised number plates. Nothing quite says I’m a bellend than paying a fortune for a few random letters and numbers thrown together which vaguely resemble your name which will be seen by thousands of people who don’t know who you are

No coincidence that a lot of the biggest dickhead drivers have personalised plates.

Good - but cant see wave energy ever becoming viable, the maintenance costs are too high. Moving parts, submerged, salt water, sand /grit and electricity are all things that dont go well together

Perhaps not wave power, but tidal generation is used in several countries.
