Being seen as an attention whore when the reality is that I'm very lonely and I need someone to talk to. Dean, Barb and I haven't gone out in the evenings for over 2 years.
People with a thick accent that keep talking oblivious of me not understanding half of what they are saying. They should go back to school and learn how to speak properly.

Pigeons! I don't mind them perching on the edge of the dogs water bowl outside and having a drink. However they are annoying because after having taken a drink they invariably turn around and sh1t in the water! They also force me to put nets over all my veg in the garden or they steal the lot. Rats with wings they are. Been a plague of them this year. I've ordered a catapult from Amazon... I'll get the f**kers.

I absolutely hate and detest cookery shows on television.
You can't put normal TV on on a Saturday and Sunday morning without them shoving food down our throats.
It's not only the food that annoys me but also the presenters. They always have the same guests on and they have in jokes and start laughing with each other. I think that's just rude.
I don't pay my television licence to watch a load of puffed up celebrities laughing amongst themselves.
What ever happened to the flintstones and scooby doo on a Saturday and Sunday morning.

I hate having to exercise restraint sometimes. Like I read something that I find really funny but I have to not respond because the person (who is clearly having some kind of breakdown) will find my comment offensive.
I think I have some kind of ocd where this issue is concerned because it niggles away at me for hours and I'm trying to find some way to pacify my compulsion but unfortunately until it fades there is nothing to ease my pain.

I have that problem as well, but I don't want to sound like Archie Bunker by telling them they need to learn how to "talk English a lot gooder".
