To ask for your hill you will die on? LIGHTHEARTED

As per the meme ‘I will die on this hill’ what are your lighthearted hills you’re willing to die on?

Mine:

Phoebe Buffay is the worst friends character. She is not kooky, she’s mean, selfish and always looking for ways to put the other friends down. Everyone is too busy hating Ross to realise Phoebe is a cock. I will die on this hill.

It’s called a panino unless you have two of them, and please stop pronouncing tagliatelle ‘tag-lee-ah-telly’

Breaking Bad is tedious.

Michael McIntyre is not funny.

Oasis are a bad Beatles tribute band (and The Beatles were mediocre to start with.)

Milk goes in first when making tea. In the mug goes the teabag and milk, then hot water. I can taste when it hasn't been made this way (usually by people who think it's an abomination).

@EllebellyBeeblebrox I have to disagree about Grease. That accolade goes to Dirty Dancing, which is the absolute pits.

@youreallabunchofbastards

I'd add stardust to the movie better than the book list. Love Gaiman bit the ending in the film is just better

Dolphins are smug bullies

I've always been puzzled by 'dolphin friendly tuna', what about the poor bloody tuna!

I don't get the fuss about Ryan Gosling. He's not that Good looking and he mumbles.

DragonforaMIL · 30/04/2020 21:16

@Doris nope, chicken kiev should be served with rice to soak up the garlic butter.

HumphreyCobblers · 30/04/2020 21:17

It is an invitation NOT an invite.

Invite is a verb, not a noun.

I realise this usage is now ubiquitous but it will never pass my lips.

Desserts are cold and hot puddings should be banned!

mrsBtheparker · 30/04/2020 21:19

Cheese is not dessert. It is great, but not dessert. Nor is fruit, although fruit salad is (just about).

A dessert was, orignally, served away from the table and was usually fruit and nuts, hence you had desserted the table.

Whatisthisfuckery · 30/04/2020 21:21

Macaroni cheese is fucking vile.

Wolverhampton is not in the Black Country, and we had The Liquidator first. It was our song and you nicked it. I don’t even care if those things are true, they are to me, so come and fight me.

WarmSausageTea · 30/04/2020 21:21

Milk goes in first when making tea in a pot. If it’s made in the mug, milk goes in as soon as the teabag is out. Stirring tea in the pot is wrong.

The HP books are okay, but JK Rowling has a tin ear for teen/young person dialogue.

Friends was just so white, wealthy, straight and self-satisfied.

Tori Amos and Alison Moyet are criminally underrated.

Whatisthisfuckery · 30/04/2020 21:22

Oh and the tennis is boring as hell.

@HumphreyCobblers

For me I fucking hate "gifting" and "I gifted"

You gave someone something and are being an attention seeking ponce about it.

An itinerary tells you WHERE you are going and when.
A timetable or schedule is the word you need for an event that takes place in a single location.

PaulTheWineGuyPaul · 30/04/2020 21:24

Always...it’s not an amazing quote...Snape was fixated and weird and creepy and stalkerish.

Harry Potter (books) are good enough to imbue every part of your (adult) life.

Cats are far better than dogs.

Butter is pure unadulterated butter. Everything else should be banned.

Ketchup belongs in the fridge.

Mayonnaise belongs in a bacon sandwich.

Sparklfairy · 30/04/2020 21:24

Hot sauce goes with everything.

PaulTheWineGuyPaul · 30/04/2020 21:25

I hate stereotypes, especially gender stereotypes, but I still find friends amusing (whilst dying a little on the inside).

Ditto modern family.

Ditto desperate housewives

Unsalted butter is for cakes and ONLY cakes

Tennis is shit. Even on a hill, with strawberries. It's still shit...

vampirethriller · 30/04/2020 21:32

Gladiator is a terrible film full of raging inaccuracies, anachronisms and even his bloody name is wrong.

FudgeBrownie2019 · 30/04/2020 21:33

Cockapoos are not worth fifty quid let alone nearly a thousand pounds. Every person around here has one like it's some kind of fancy club. Stop inventing breeds, it's fucking madness with your shitbeagles.

(Disclaimer, I have a rescue Cockapoo and it is the biggest twat I have ever met in my life. Lovely, I'd never be without it, but you cannot convince me anything with the worst of both breeds it's bred from is worth almost a grand. Ever).

Game of Thrones - Jaime Lannister did genuinely love Brienne of Tarth. I refuse to accept the guy in the last 2 episodes was actually Jaime, it was SO bad.
