Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage

TFL Buses with seats so close together that no reasonably sized person can get there legs into and sit properly. Can they not test these things with some reasonably sized people?

oooh I get ya! AND the seats on top of the wheels on the single deckers... surely common sense would suggest more space needed when going over bumps!

My bad - what's wrong with my mistake ?

[Otta]

Nothing is wrong with my mistake. But nice to have some choice.

I hate that expression as well. Grrrrr!

[Dopamine1979]

Like many expressions I think 'My bad' came from American slang where it used to sound cool.

[Loz]

And 'soz'. Nggggggghhhh.

Posts on Facebook with 'like if you think cancer is bad' etc.

And cancer charities using aggressive slogans as if cancer is a cross between Fred West and Hitler. "Let?s Beat Bowel Cancer" is fair enough, but "Let?s Kick Cancer?s Butt"? Really? And the rather creepy "Cancer, we're coming to get you". So we're going to lie in wait around a corner and when cancer goes past we're going to kick it to the floor and smash its face in? American firefighters have a charity called "Let's Fire Cancer". What? Invite it into the office and hand it a P45? And inevitably, there's a charity in the States called "F*ck cancer". Enough!

Mary Ann Hobbs on 6 Music. Always irritating but particularly when she laughs to herself.

"My bad" sounds like something that a two year old child might say because they had acquired a proper knowledge of the English language.

But the commercial world tries to treat us like small kids. "I'm fresh - eat me now" - not a female porn actress but a piece of fruit.

is this the good lines thread?

When someone says or writes "my bad", I'm always waiting for the next word, as "bad" is normally used as an adjective.

Usually it is an implied "grammar".

It's the cutesiness of it that's so sickening.

Good shout, Gerrard

Also, the way she talks about everything as if it hasn't been heard/seen a million times before. Musicians who have been around for years tend to have addressed the same subjects over and over. But with Hobbes, she trails it as "never before" stuff

Disney's 'Fast Play' feature on their DVDs. It couldn't be more misleadingly named.

My ongoing hair loss. I had a lovely head of hair until I hit my 40s and now well into my 50s it is rapidly falling out. Grrr!

Actually, that's quite rational isn't it?
