Random Irritations

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

You're right. I watch it on 101

My MiL refuses to understand that the BBC1 on channel 101 is (apart from local news) the same BBC1 as she gets on channel 1, and her response when I tell her that? "Well I always watch BBC 1 on 1". And it is the same for other 'terrestrial' channels that now have HD equivalents.

The missus watching tv in SD rather than finding the HD channel ?

My random irritation is TV adverts for HD televisions. If I've already got an HD TV then I don't want to buy one. If I haven't got an HD TV then all off the benefits they're trying to show me won't be apparent on my SD TV. And if I can see the benefits of an HD TV on my SD TV then why do I need to upgrade?

Also, YouTube reviews of audio equipment that play you something on it!

Don’t get me started on reviews of noise cancelling headphones that complain they can still hear people talking.

The British press going totally mental over a bunch of trashy wannabe celebrities in the States because one of them got married.

People thinking we'd be interested in a bunch of trashy wannabe celebrities in the States because one of them got married...

Who got married? Was about to Google but couldn't be sure if "trashy wannabe celebrities get married" would be effective!

Agreed.

BBC going into hyperdrive to try to show that it is an 'all inclusive' occasion and not the haunt of white rich upper/ pretendy middle class folk.
Makes me laugh.

Not all doctors - just the ones who view Gregory House MD as a personality role model. He was a fictional caricature of a genius diagnostician with no empathy. Total lack of empathy without the genius just makes you an arse.
Came into contact with a few of them lately, not all of them in-laws.
