Baths, just hop in the shower

carbuncleonapigsposterior · 11/09/2018 18:02

In Round Robin Christmas cards, senders who gives detailed descriptions of their off spring's achievements and what they've all been up to in the last year
Eugenie's up and coming wedding
Victoria Beckham and her children
Pretty much all sports
Soaps - just don't watch them
Events like London Fashion Week and the way famous people are photographed gathered around the catwalk as if they are about to experience the second coming. Frocks so fascinating Hmm
Must have technology - I can't worship at the altar of the latest "must have" phone, because I just don't care. All those people snaking round the block and queuing all night for Apple's latest whatever Hmm
Lily Allen - too much information, she should learn the meaning of "enigmatic" and then try and apply that to her public image.
Ditto Katie Price, but then I suppose there'd be no Katie Price, Lily Allen has her reedy voice to fall back on I suppose.
The worship of cars

TOWIE and it's Chelsea counterpart and anyone who has featured in either of them. I'm especially not interested in their babies.

Me too. But I think you're supposed to brush it or roll it or something?

user1483390742 · 11/09/2018 18:17

Other peoples' children/photos and i'm sure no one is interested in mine either! That's why i'm not on Facebook!

Sales. Especially the ones where people queue at 4am to get in.

Then inevitably it's basically a huge jumble sale bun fight.

Just no. I'll pay extra not to have that stress, thanks!
