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

Social media. The hysteria caused by idiots being rude to one another on Facetwitgram is utterly pathetic. Grow up, turn your phones off and get a life you cretins.

KFC.
Snow.
The Kardashians.
Long baths. I get in, get clean, wash my hair and get out. Don't see the need to spend an hour in there.

Christmas jumpers.
Secret Santa

I suggest you have your dinner prepared by a better cook.

Lush - stuff I would have liked as a young teen but leaves me cold now
Prosecco - no idea what people see in it! Cava is a lot nicer, on average

Love gin and nandos have improved recently!

I cannot adequately describe the heaven that was a Five Guys burger. I doubt I'll ever have one again due to them being way out of my price range. If I had the cash I'd buy them again. My brother paid.
Anyway back to the subject.. brioche buns. What a load of wank. Far too sweet

Mrsjohnmurphy · 27/11/2018 23:15

Wasn't lush once cosmetics to go? Loved looking at my friend's catalogue as a kid, never actually bought anything.

Have just deleted FB because the urge to post "pithy" replies was just too strong. It's a pile of shite, specially at this time of year if you aren't having a great time.

Five guys is overpriced burger king, which itself is overpriced maccys. Never been to nandos and not been tempted, I'm meh about chicken at best.

I'm coming to the realisation that the royle family hasn't aged well for me. It's well observed, but Barbara should ltb. Jim is a solid gold cunt :(
