All inclusive holidays in the sun. Sun burn, bad food and too many people, I'd rather stay home thanks.

Oh god @Sophoa totally agree. I know a 38 guest old woman who has been 16 times, often without her kids and just with her adult sister. Utterly bizarre.

Showing my age here: The Battle of Britpop that took place in August 1995. It was Blur vs Oasis. If it was Charmless Man (Blur) vs Wonderwall (Oasis), then it would have made a better Battle of Britop. But instead, they picked the 2 worst songs from their upcoming albums.

Also, chart music after around year 2000.

And the internet after around 2007 with the uprising of social media.
