Totally lighthearted(but I know which way these things go)
Apart from all the big stuff (Brexit, climate change, plastics) what would you happily throw in, never to be seen again?
Today-that really thick, sealed plastic packaging that needs industrial scissors to open. (Ironic as it was scissors inside) Impossible, then deadly sharp.(currently have finger wrapped in kitchen roll)
go for it ...

Film remakes.

The utter rage and disappointment as I sat down one evening to watch Total Recall only to watch in disbelief the first couple of minutes of absolute crap and realise it was a remake.

Ditto all film remakes. I rarely watch tv so the disappointment was even worse. Grin

Trousers worn low so that pants are on show. I think they’re called drop crotch.

The fluff in the tumble drier

The brambles in the back of my beds

Ivy. Fucking hate ivy.

Umbrellas that have a wonky spoke poking out

The word precious, as in 'precious little family'.

I hate ivy too. I shudder when i see it growing up houses.

Geemaine Greer.

The word literally.

Far too many people are taken to adding it unnecessarily to their comments so the word needs to be removed from our vocabulary.

Tailgaters.
Coriander.
And ... Fleabag.

Personalised number plates which are not the actual letters. For example using the number 5 in place of the letter s.

Those family stickers of stick people and pets on the back of cars.

Baby on board stickers.

Billy bolt on skirts and other appendages on cars, usually Subaru’s or pimped up vans.

Anyone who wears a hat in a restaurant. I once glared at a man many times who was seated near me in my friends restaurant because he was wearing a back to front baseball cap.

My friend later told me that he was a famous club DJ but I was not impressed at all.

Pepsi max flavours other than the sublime Cherry. Raspberry is passable but all the others taste like waging up liquid.

Seems like you hate everything! Wouldn’t it just be easier for you to throw yourself in? Grin

Hmmm yes, my next post was going to include cantankerous old women!

The word 'Moist'

People who loiter after they have filled up with fuel at busy petrol stations when there is a queue- get in, put purse away, reset trip counter off you go. What is with the faffage that goes on, what are you doing?

Unicorns .....< hides and leaves >.

Period pains
Cold shoulder tops
DP when he's in a mood, but only if I can the bring him back out again.
Men at work who stare at my boobs
Bras that fit the last time I bought them but don't the next time
Myself when I'm being horrid
Creepy crawlies in the house: I'm terrified of them (I know its illogical)

There wouldn't be room for all the things I'd want to chuck in - some of them are - mice, rats, rabbits, flies, mosquitoes, cold callers, scammers, liars, thieves, bad drivers, most politicians, many 'celebs', organised religion, fossil fuel ... have to stop now or I'll get carried away.

ginghamstarfish · 11/04/2019 17:18

Reminds me of a Simpsons episode when they had a black hole in their basement, and started to chuck rubbish in it. It took everything, but refused Homer's worn underpants ....
