I hate gnomes, what's your pet hate?

[FancyFran]

Just a thread for fun. I have been reading the funeral ones in classics and it reminded me of my late mother. We bought a beautiful cottage in a posh village and I returned home from a holiday to find gnomes in my flower beds.
I got my own back by burying her in a sparkly Bet Lynch top (I had asked her what she wanted to wear at her demise she said 'suprise me, but I'll be dead'.My mother enjoyed black humour as her best friend was a Vicar and she had been a police officer. I still hate gnomes and spotted them in our new village this week. AIBU?

Stretchy school skirts no bigger than a belt.
If you don't like the pleated skirt etc. wear trousers.

Walking past parked cars and all I hear is RING RING! really loudly from inside the car, then a tinny voice yakking away at full volume. Rips my knitting no end

Add to that men who sit with one hand on top of the wheel with a (usually) beefy arm held poker straight and a menacing expression on their face. These guys tend to resemble Dom Littlewood but with none of his cheeriness.

@nightwebs absolutely! Often found tailgating or driving white vans, or both.

I need to add another one🤦‍♀️ people writing of when it should be have 😭
No, you shouldn't or wouldn't OF when it should be you shouldn't or wouldn't HAVE etc 😡😂 hate it 🤦‍♀️

How they are comfortable going in front of their fathers like this I'll never know 🤢

So I am going to add 'we chose the local comp for diversity' to the mix. I am not buying it. (big thread trending). If you want to be inclusive get off your wealthy arse and teach in one!

And I still hate gnomes.

@Staggersaurus - ok true LOL here. Fist bumps are okay as long as we don't try to get too fancy with the sound effects.

Adults who go crazy over Disney. My friend and her daughter- aged 61 and 33- go to Disneyland Paris 3 times a year. The daughter will post loads of pics of herself kissing Mickey Mouse and other characters.
I don't get it......

hookie I love Disneyland, I think because I used to go there when working a diabolically stressful job. It was possible to spend an entire day from 8.00 - 1.00 am the next morning not thinking about work or anything serious and get rid of stress by screaming my way around the Matterhorn about 42 times. It was escapism rather than a love for Mickey Mouse. One good thing about my job was we used to get tickets for Disney for $1 each and I went 6 times one year.

Jesus Christ Disney (says she who has 128 dolls). All from my childhood I might add. Hoarder not weird.

I have a new one, Candy Kittens.

People who don't do vinyl or CDs or books.
(I have cassettes). When I die they will be in Oxfam.

People in restaurants who sit at the table and blow their nose. Gross.

Shabby chic. I'll do that myself thank you living in the country with dogs and hairy ar*Ed men.

@SouthCountryGirl eek.
I have never experienced that. However plenty of coughers. Disgusting.
