David Beckham. He looks like he should be working on the dodgems at the local fair

Tom Hardy. So average!

Christmas dinner. Bland meat, smelly veg and only ever so slightly redeemed by pigs in blankets and cranberry sauce.

Restaurants that serve me food on something that's not a plate. I once had a chickens and leek pie in a mess tin FFS.

Camping. Trips away and holidays are supposed to be enjoyable, what is fun about sweeping bugs out your home in a morning and freezing half to death on a night

Any so called celebrity - they're just people
Prosecco - ridiculously over rated and rather unpleasant
Facebook - I don't care to see pictures of what people had for their dinner

mumlost1940 · 29/11/2018 18:03

Campari - You just gotta it taste before you die. Very over rated: not as bad a champagne.

urkidding · 29/11/2018 18:03

Pictures of people having gin and tonic on Facebook, soooo boring.
Went with a friend on holiday who was swapping these pictures with other women having gin and tonic, and then boasting about it, this is more boring than the first!

LovelyGirlNOT · 29/11/2018 18:03

NRTFT so apologies if already mentioned, but...

Mrs Hinch

I don't get why everyone's gone mad over her. Ok, so she cleans. And she has a home that is entirely decorated in grayscale. What's the big deal?

I followed her for a while, as I'm a professional housekeeper and hoped she'd spill some major hacks that would make my job easier/more productive. But nope, just endless boring pics of her 50 shades of grey home and endorsing very average products by touting them as "amazing!"

Didn't take long to hit the 'unfollow' button

I also don't get why creme brulee is considered some kind of dish fit for royalty. It's naff. Cold runny custard is basically all it is.

BoooForYou · 29/11/2018 18:04

Ketchup- cant stand it
Elvis Presley- DH despairs but he makes me cringe
Twilight- utter shite

creamcheeseandlox · 29/11/2018 18:04

ChimesAtMidnight · 29/11/2018 18:18

X Factor; Britains Got Talent; The Voice; Celebrity Come Dancing; anything with the word "celebrity" in it; anything with the word "Kardashian" in it; botox - it looks like the squidgy putty my dad used when putting in a new pane of glass.

Sproutpie · 29/11/2018 18:20

David Bowie - I just don’t see a genius, I see an attention seeker.
Game of Thrones
Star stupid Trek
Tennis
Eastenders
Social media bragging
Round Robin letters - I don’t give a tiny rat’s ass what you’ve done this year. That goes for your kids too.
Mick Hucknall - he is definitely Jim from Rosie and Jim- face it you’ve never seen them in the same room at the same time.

And breathe..................

Roast turkey. Never had one that tasted good. Bland and dry. Chicken is much better
