The fact that whatever How Clean is Your House episodes from the first three seasons (British, not American) are out there for easy-enough access by Polish voice-overs that literally no-one asked for.

As for the American version of the show? That’s like comparing a Piers Morgan-less BGT with America’s Got Talent with plenty of Piers (ugh) to boot. So not good.

Air diffusers with ill-adapted chargers, meaning the thing doesn’t work. I was looking forward to a chilled evening of custard creams, tea and frankincense + tea-tree in the air while I watched the soaps. Not happy about this at all.

The “ever since Covid” brigade. It’s been 4 years and your own life trajectory and most other things are not inherently impacted by a virus. Shut up.

Time rarely being on my side in the way I’d like it to be.

yeah, i hate having to wait a week on the next episode, i much prefer to binge watch. With a binge watch, you can get totally immersed in the story

[Ammi]

…also, you can just pay for the one month subscription to binge the series plus any other series on there that look interesting…?….lots of True Detective articles for the new series are everywhere atm…it’s good that it’s looking good and popular but harder to avoid….

My strategy is to go for the streamers that have special offers then cancel at the end of the term. Outside of that, i rotate among them taking 1 month at a time and catching up. It works well and means i'm never paying for more than 1 or 2 subs at any time

Annoying radio and TV adverts - voices on the radio.

Such as that one for the AA (vehicles) and the voiceover is a woman with a chipmunk voice. How the hell she gets voice over work staggers me.

Also that Einstein ad. I fookin' hate that one. Kids will be thinking it's really Einstein advertising electric meters.

Intriguingly some of the radio adverts on TalkSport are great !!

Well written and well crafted

Just an opinion

There was one that made me chuckle. A woman suddenky sings in a high voice. I just found that funny. But it's rare any of them make me laugh.

There’s been quite a few for me .. can’t recall the advert but it was basically a speeded up marriage vow that was scripted and acted so well that I recorded it and shared it around.

Yeah but there are a lot of bad ones. I listen to Greatest Hits Radio and LBC and they have some really bad actors whose voices are just so annoying.

So much so, you can pay Greatest Radio NOT to play the ads. If you pay, they'll play you a song instead.

Jujutsu Kaisen fans having a meltdown at IGN giving the Shibuya Arc a 6/10.

The review didn't even say anything that bad.

And I had someone on YouTube accuse me of being a "pseudo intellectual" and "having deranged behaviour" just because I can understand IGN's review of the Show.

Absolutely pathetic behaviour from that particular individual that just can't accept different opinions, and tbh the JJK fandom in general just doesn't seem to know how to debate without insulting the people with opposing viewpoints, it is really poor behaviour, and plays into very negative stereotypes of an Anime fan.

And the thing is I didn't mind Jujutsu Kaisen's First Season on a shallow level, but it doesn't have enough depth for me to give the second Season a chance, especially with what I've been hearing about the Season.

But apparently not thinking that JJK is the best fictional story of all time, and demanding more from the story is wrong apparently.

Never has an Anime fandom made me so angry with all of the insults, and just completely disingenuous arguments that they've been making about IGN and anyone that doesn't think that JJK is a 10/10, rather than just accepting that people have different opinions, or making arguments as to why they think that the Shibuya Incident does have more to itself than just fight scenes, they instead start insulting people that agree with IGN's review (which was a fair amount of people tbh) absolutely pathetic behaviour.

And look I know that it's not every JJK fan that behaves like a 14 year old, but unfortunately a sizable portion of them do.

For proof of what I'm saying here's IGN's review https://www.ign.com/articles/jujutsu...a-incident-arc

Right I’m no expert on these matters but if someone murders three random, innocent people and also admits to trying to murder three others …. then I do not want to hear any reasons or excuses .



I would have been ok for them to put him to sleep the same day

Sadly another example of 'Lefty' lawyers thinking more of the killer than the victims and justice.

Judgemental assumption-questions that force you to get more personal than you’d like to with people you barely know.

There’s just been a press conference and the guy said that they HAD to accept the reduced plea and judgment of hospitalisation as the alternative was the prosecution case failing and ending up with nothing !?!


How can a monster murder three innocent people and try to murder a further three .. and get off Scott-Free
?

That's absolutely bonkers.

I can believe it though because our justice system cares more about Fraudsters and Drug Dealers than they do about violent crimes.

Until he appeals … numerous times … at great expense to us taxpayers and maybe gets let out

The MAOI cheese-hypertension thing that makes doctors hesitant to prescribe them. Phenelzine, selegeline (albeit that one’s more for, like, Parkinson’s annd narcolepsy) and tranyclypromine can be life-saving drugs that should be prescribed more. Docs (especially the young ones with little experience and who don’t know anything but what their specific, narrow training, which might have erroneous information, tells them) need to get their ish together and their knowledge up-to-date. You don’t need to be a Ken Gillman buff-dem ting but it does pay to actually know what you’re talking about and challenge misconceptions. Get to know the proper, hardcore antidepressants while you’re fobbing people off with sertraline and citalopram as well. SSRIs are not real antidepressants, not really. Or very-barely.

Young doctors and pharmacists who are trained in a very narrowly specific way are just taught to believe that MAOIs are bad and dangerous without actually seeing them being used properly and with not even a third as many tyramine diet restrictions as people think. In reality you are okay with vintage Manny aged ale and mac and cheese. If you get high blood pressure at any point, just take a propranolol (or some CBD, even) and lie yourself down for an hour. You not gonna die from cheesy chips, egusi, ogiri, soy sauce or a Big Mac while you’re on phenelzine. Not one of those things.

People thinking your generosity borders on creepy. Some people are as nice as they are because they’re nice. Just because you’d have to have some ulterior motive or something in it for you to ally for your buddy when it might embarrass you (say everyone else is ganging up on or involved in a smear-gaslight against them) or bung them 100 quid if you had it spare and they needed it doesn’t mean everyone’s like that. Everyone has their moments and a dark side but some people are also capable of more genuine good-heartedness than others. Heck, some people are a perfect mix of light and dark and depending on who you are you might get either side and not know which one you’re getting if you have ambivalent feelings about how much they actually like you but people like that are there for the people they’re there for, and you might never find someone like that again for as long as you live. So don’t take people’s kindness for granted, even if they’re horrible to or about people they hate. They’re there for you and so long as no moral boundaries are crossed for no reason either way, that’s all that matters. No strings attached but at least show some appreciation. The jollof rice on the other side might never be as sweet (except your mum’s best that she makes once a year), nor might the extent of support and favours that one person did for you compare to what you got before. And you’ll realise that one day if you take people for granted and don’t respect them. Maybe not today or next year but you will realise it and have regrets. What you had might be gone forever and ever. And you might only have yourself to blame. Especially if you were siding more with shady people at the time because they had a bit more visible cred but ended up doing you dirty behind your back.

Disrespecting your mum when she’s only been good to you (I don’t mean just normal arguments) is also a major red flag. You might think you smart and you might be but she’s had experience you haven’t. If you genuinely have super-toxic parents, that’s different and you do need to let your feelings be known regardless but you don’t swear at your mum to get you the latest PlayStation.
