Alan Partridge (also popularity of Miranda, British Bake Off and the like. Most TV progs actually)


Candy Crush.


Golf. Just why?


YSL Touche eclat and Bobbi Brown's shimmer brick. Utterly useless products that everyone raves about.


Hair straighteners. I have boring straight hair. One of my friends has pretty much the same 'style' of hair as me. She offered to 'straighten' my hair whilst I was round at hers getting ready to go out. Mystified. I just don't 'get' this craze at all. Esp if your hair is not remotely curly.


Modern jazz.


Those Meerkats.


Cannabis.


Orla Kiely/ Cath Kidston stuff faux twee/vintage.


Body piercing.


Birkenstocks.


Bacon on a burger.


"Chick" Lit. Esp the phrase itself. Ugh.


Lists (thank you Jah) ;-)

We used to drink a particular cough mixture by the bottle. That was after I tried acid.

Well, let's see. One night, when Mummy and Daddy were very much d̶r̶u̶n̶k̶ in love, Daddy put his thingy in Mummy's front bottom and, er, now let me just think..

Not toasters, unless they come in the form of a pop-up event, cafe etc.

Pibe... no audio at work... but the video alone is pretty cringeworthy.


I would actually nominate Range Rovers - particularly pimped-out ones sporting after market body kits and badges such as "Overfinch". Just horrible, horrible things for people devoid of taste.

    • No, we'd have to be in a police state.  You'd have to get this made law.  Unless it is in Reform's policies.  I'll check. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/live-facial-recognition-technology-to-catch-high-harm-offenders Not government policy
    • There is a sign outside what was Megan's saying that whatever is replacing it will have an "all day concept." What the (expletive deleted) is an "all day concept", and how does it differ from being open all day? For (expletive deleted)'s sake 🙄
    • Not quite the same, but I  was always bemused by the name of Streatham Common Station, which is a lot further away from the common than Streatham Station is. I recently found out that when it was first built it was called Greyhound Lane Station, and then with various changes of road names etc  over the years became Streatham Common Station. Which still doesn't explain it, but is quite interesting (I think, anyway!).
    • Thanks, I'll try. I don't think I'm near to renewal, but they may do something as I've been with them for so long, if I say I'll look elsewhere at renewal if they don't!  What difference does the line speed make? Does it affect the signal at various points through the house? When I changed to fibre, the guy who installed it really resisted having the router where it had been before, at the back of the house,  presumably because it would have been a lot more work for him having to run wires through, over doors etc? At the time I was working at the front as my office at the back had become so dark (adjacent loft extension) so I wasn't too bothered, but I've since moved back. I've got those plug in extension things, but the WiFi at the back is now sometimes quite iffy, particularly the printer, which is annoying.
