Random Irritations

[Blue in Munich]

conversation in the Dando household this morning;

Mrs D - "can you check the towels in the dryer?"

Me - "yep they're still in there!"

Mrs D - "you're such a (insert infraction worthy response)"

I can't win

In fairness, she has a point.

Genuinely, it feels like you might have cut your side 30cm lower?

Weeeeeeeell, when we moved in a named it Beechers Brook. Then when we were away they put a saw through a nice Mountain Ash than was growing out of the hedge, and left it there!!!! So when they went away 30cm was removed from the top of the hedge all the way across. She, the weeble, and that's one of my nicer names for her, kicked off with my wife over this saying I shouldn't have removed any of their side????? Huh???? It was still over 6ft high. So I removed another 30cm on my side in the hope that they would do the same but no. Now were in lockdown and they've been isolating so haven't been anywhere....but when they do..........poof the hedge will be levelled across the top.

Adverts for shaving cream/razors on the TV.
Do they really think we are all that stupid??????

Why what do they say the stuff can do now? If it's knock 20 years off your looks, I'm in !!!!

Person one: “here’s my opinion which I know you’ll disagree with due to other things we’ve disagreed on in the last”

Person two: “Ah he’s a troll. Ban him, mods. BAN HIM. DO NOT FEED THE TROLL”

There is a bit of a culture on here I don't like of calling someone a troll just because they don't understand their stance on something, or won't even try. Real trolls are usually simple to spot.

Mountai ash is a weed, not a tree. It's a big weed, but still, better to cut it down, and then burn the ground it stood on, bung on some agent orange, and possibly nuke it. Horrible things.

The arrogant little in the third seat on The Chase. "I think they need me back, I've come with a game plan." And takes the low offer.

If you're that good lad, take the middle offer at least, if not the high.

Tempted to go to things that gladden the heart to report that he answered one question right & didn't make the final. And by Chase standards they weren't difficult questions.

Gordon Elliott, sooner he is booted out of Horse Racing the better

Good to see the BHA have banned him from running horses over here until the Irish board make a decision, with a bit of luck they may now realise this isnt something to be swept under the carpet.

Shame that none of his owners seem in any rush to remove their horses from their yard, maybe if they cant run at Cheltenham that may make them reconsider

And the team that "needed him back" beat The Beast without him. Fantastic!

Contestants on Mastermind who, despite not having a hope of winning, refuse to pass on the basis it might go to number of passes. Stop making random guesses idiot and just pass!

One of my random irritations on The Chase is contestants who don't guess.

Not much point in me telling you that they keep evil spirits away, then .

 

[AmandaJR]

Ha ha. The guy going last started on 9, 21 to beat, ended up on 11 and still didn't want to pass!!

 

[MegaSteve]

Think if I make it to appearing on a TV quiz I'd be keeping it to myself...
Tough audience on here...

I don't really watch it, but I always wondered why they don't just guess whenever they don't know. There seems to be no penalty at all (except 2 seconds it takes for him to say the correct answer maybe?) and the up side is obviously that they use number of passes as a decider.

I think it's a bit highbrow for completely ridiculous answers Although they don't get ridiculed as they will now on UC by Paxman...

Only Connect has, once again, fried my poor brain

Bad news I did my back in today after 3 holes, good news the green keeper saw me struggling and gave me a lift, on back of the tractor
