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 ...

All the stuff I'm too lazy to take to the tip and charity shop. Clearly driving to the edge of the universe would be easier than stepping over it in my hall way.

Thread worms - turned me into some cleaning obsessive weirdo the time we had it, I bloody hate housework as it is and felt gross. Happily see them removed from the face of the planet.

All photographic evidence of the terrible haircut I had to grow out. Still haunts me.

That weird stringy white mouth shite that comes when you have a specific kind of toothpaste.

Horses being taken out for exercise on a road by an owner who just wants to walk slowly and chat to her friend who is riding the horse beside her. Exercise properly in a field, and chat over a cuppa somewhere please!

QuestionableMouse · 12/04/2019 14:11

@123fushia bit unreasonable there. One of the pleasures of horse owning is going on a nice long hack with good company!

The term "black hole". It's not a bloody hole. Pedants. 😉Sorry, as I'm no Astro physicist, I dunno what it's called.
Seat belts made for tall people that end up nearly strangling short arses like me.
The person who lets either their large dog or their small dire wolf shit in the middle of our gate way on the pavement regularly.
Getting old, with its attendant aches and pains, that can go to a galaxy far far away.
