To be fucking sick of working class people screaming

[browncordchic]

We get it, Coronation Street. Working class people show their midriffs and scream, but ars all right really FUCK OFF.

FUNKO how did you get that picture of me from that angle my leggings don’t look that flattering.

I'm hoping that was Sparkling's idea of a devilish joke....someone throwing in a 'don't watch it' or 'don't listen to it' or 'don't buy it' etc etc is an old chestnut on these threads when OP is having a rant about something.

I doubt it.

Well, it was giving the poor OP a headache forcryinoutloud so time for drastic measures.

Maybe complain to Ofcom?

Oh do trot off to somewhere else. Anywhere else.

Why are you watching corrie just shop in asda on a sunday afternoon...

Wow, some pp have chips on their shoulders.

Eastenders is the same.

Who the what now?

YABU for watching Corrie.

Eastenders is so much classier and more glamorous.

I mean, they've got Liz 'lipstick and leotards' McDonald, but we've got Sharon and her eyebrow acting.

Plus its on the BBC, so its posh, innit?

My exh once came home pissed as a fart with a bunch of daffs in a brown primani bag as a peace offering. Oh very classy!

I agree. The character is a lazy stereotype and the actress has obviously been told to play her in a particular way. Becky and Kylie were from a similar background but were more nuanced.

Why has a very obviously sarcastic OP become so strange? I have no idea what is going on any more.

I'm sick of people being sick of people who are clearly sick of lazy stereotyping on popular television programmes.

Actually OP does have a point - I don't watch Corrie, or any of the Soaps anymore because of the fucking SCREAMING (looking at you Eastenders).

Very few people actually live there lives in a constant screaming argument although they may be really argumentative people (looking at you HateIs). It is actually why I stopped watching them.

Great AIBU Post Title OP - grist for t'mill.....

Oh. It is all weird.

Well this place has become as dense as a scrag's back arse lately. Not the OP's fault.

Wow. That's an amaxing phrase, Liney .

Well said LineysRun.

very few people actually live their lives in a constant screaming argument

Er, you do know you're on AIBU, right?

Classy people don't watch soap operas that indulge in copious stereotyping. So all of them.

How have David and Eileen both got tans? I'm in the NW; it's rained solidly for about 6 months...

Eastenders is worse IMO.

I watched it religiously for the best part fo 20 years. Until it slowly dawned on my how fucking insulting the program is.

When it started, it was meant to be a more realsitic portrayal of working class London. But all the characters in the show are thick. Pig ignorant, 2 dimentional characters invented by media types with patronising ideas about what the lower classes are up to.

Corrie isn't nearly as bad. At least soe of their characters have a bt of depth.

(Disclaimer - I am basing this on 20 years of EE and about 2 of Corrie, last watched about a decade ago! Have either improved since?)

Only commoners watch the soaps, don't you know.

Love Gemma's midriff

Actually Stacey Slater had promise - she was a fantastic actress at about 15.

Please tell me they did something vaguely interesting with her character?
