Extraverts at parties/events not respecting boundaries and forcing everyone to be non-camera-shy. Just-because you’re comfortable getting roped into a group-picture after some persuasion doesn’t mean everyone-else will be. I specially curate my selfies at Christmas and that’s about the extent of my picture-taking outside of a few random moments scattered across the year, maybe, at-most. I know when I’m looking my best and not looking my best. If it’s the latter, there’s no reason for me to want to get involved in a group-picture.

Thumbs down

The fact this unfunny man "won" the Edinburgh Fringe comedy award,
not because he is funny but because of the woke mind virus rife among kids
who went to uni to do crap degrees and to try and win the fictitious culture war

The fact that we live in a world where pointing out how ridiculously over-ascribed to “neurodivergence” is these days can earn you a 7-day ban.

When your barista makes your coffee way too hot and you’re sitting there until closing time waiting for it to cool down. Not impressed.

The very-concept of why burgers (besides chippy-burgers, which usually skimp on gherkin) have to have pickle in them, likewise for lettuce. If that’s what I wanted, I’d have a salad or buy a jar of pickle. That’s not what I want from my burger.

Vegans insisting that lettuce doesn’t taste of anything and thus can’t be disagreeable to the tongue are also a level of irritating.

You know you can ask for a plain burger no salad

I know and that’s what I do. But the very concept of doing it by default in the first place just gets on my wick.

Not a little thing by any means but narrow-minded Brits (I’m not saying the vast majority of “pure” Brits are this-say inclined) complaining about mass-immigration off the back of Fuse ODG filming a Ghanaian dance in front of Buckingham Palace. Britain is a nation that’s rich because of its colonialism and raping and pillaging other nations for their resources (etc., etc.).

People who talk too much about relationships. Not my vibe or my obsession.

And so the world has been this side of December ’07 (when the credit-crunch started) after 10-15 years of economic improvement. Britain never truly recovered from the 2008-crash. It just gets worse every year.

Yup. In a few years time we'll be crying about how today's prices were more reasonable.

That was lovely of them. And I agree the prices for olive oil are ridiculous. I skip it now. It's not worth it for me.

Speaking of high prices- I seem to be an egg waster lately. I buy eggs and don't touch them or think about them until before or after best by date. I do like eggs but they're not my fave either

I'm the same then whenever I actually need them I don't have them. Also end up buying a pack just to use one egg to egg wash a pie crust or something then never use the others
