what 'trends' really (maybe unreasonably) make your teeth itch?

[littlerayofsunshite]

Some things really piss me off. Those wall stickers 'live, laugh, love' and other shitty phrases for example. Another is those glittery wine glasses/bottles being sold on every Facebook page. Then there are those books that have been turned into words and classed as art.

There are more. Wow there are more but before I go on, are these common pet hates or AIBU a miserable bitch

happy as far as i can tell you can no longer get coleslaw outside sipermarkets
has anyone noticed an increasing tendency to eat with a full mouth? usually to say "it's goood" while nodding and rolling your eyes back

Ooh Jimmy you've reminded me, the moustache phase has to be over soon surely?
Photo props, clothing, tattoos that twirly fucker gets everywhere

Am I the only person in the world who doesn't know what pulled pork is?.....

I can't bear the craze of young girls putting all their possessions on you tube.
This is my mascara.Its Rimmel London and I love it (tinkly laughter)
This is my foundation brush (pout)
This is my lip gloss in ice princess.
Blah blah blah.
No one cares.Really.

God I LOVE this thread - whoever said its made them "reassuringly enraged", I couldn't agree more!

FirstWeTakeManhattan (love that song) - YES to Jess C-M's terrible posing! It is incomprehensible to me that she's still employed.

I would also add people who start a question with "you do realise..." as in, "you do realise you're earning less than my cleaner, don't you?".

Those plaid blanket scarf things - they're terrible.

Dreadfully-titled Fifty Shades-influenced shite on Kindle - ie:

• Destroyed By You, by Ima Twatface (the Destroyed series part 1, volume 3)
• Destroyed By Love, by Ima Twatface (the Destroyed series part 2, volume 11, chapter 78 and a half)
• Destroyed By Us, by Ima Twatface (the Destroyed series part 27, section 19, appendix 550 - !!REVISED VERSION NOW EVEN EROTICER!!

DOES NONE OF THIS SEEM SUPERFLUOUS TO YOU, IMA??

Giving cross-breeds names like Cavapoo or Labradoodle and charging huge amounts for them. They used to be called mongrels.

The fact that young people nowadays (indulge me...I'm 30-som ething) are savvy enough to stand side on in photos, so that all the ensuring images of them will be flattering, whilst anyone over 30 stood straight on to the camera throughout the 90s and 00s, hence we look pretty, um, solid in all our photos.

Foods with no possible justification for it having the word "deli" in their names, as in, "Deli Box Instant Noodles". WTF.

Hate the phrase 'a cheeky' something or other.

Wow. There are so many things out there that I didn't know existed until I read this thread and that I am horrified by!
I can't bear people using text speak in messages to people they don't know (me) which appears to be as long and difficult as the original word. With 'hun' or 'mama' on the end.

Authentic pulled pork is a cut of pork (often the shoulder) cooked very slowly from the heat of smoke coming from a wood fire. It becomes very tender and is then pulled (basically shredded) from the larger cut, usually mixed with a barbecue sauce, and served on a bun with coleslaw.

When people say "can I get..." Instead of "please can I have...?"

For god sake, where are your manners? My friend does this all of the time, I always finish off her sentences with "please?"

Also these 'hilarious' memes about wine. "It's wine o clock" - piss the fuck off!! Unless you're drinking cheateau de piss every night how do people afford to drink so much wine?!

Ah,thank you Scone !

Oh and people who address the whole of Facebook like a close friend

' good morning, how are you all today?'
' off to bed now. Goodnight to you all sleep well...'

To 294 'friends'

"It's wine o clock" ugh.

funny how it's never "splitting headache o'clock", eh Piper?

or "incurable liver damage o'clock"...

been a while since anyone's pulled my pork

My pet hates at the moment:

Fake orange faces & fake eyelashes;
Fake bun rolls - that show;
the whole passive-aggressive thing:
People who stop & step aside for you (you didn't ask), when the pavement is wide enough and then mouth "thankyou";
People who pull faces at you from their cars, when they stop for you, and you're trying to get toddler/ kid on roller-skates across the road/just trying to cross the road;
People having loud mobile phone conversations, and expect all around them to be quiet;
People who honk at you, just 'cos you're on a bicycle (this is actually bullying).

Grrr

scone your explanation of pulled pork is concise and informative but just reading it has made me irrationally annoyed about pulled pork again! :o

Ugh there is just something so show offy about it.

Dicks, "can I get ..." always makes me want to say "Sure, it's over there!" or "Why not let the barista get it for you?"

Twats.

The word 'haters'.

This is one that has crept up recently: retailers training their staff to make small talk with customers at the till. They ask things like "how's your day going?" And "got much more shopping to do?" They clearly have absolutely no interest in my answers and it's just plain odd!

Please let's just get the transaction done, be polite to one another and each get on with our day rather than this awkward stilted conversation that neither of us wants to be having!

Food that's described as "pan-fried" or "oven-baked"

How the frigging hell else would you fry something, if not in a sodding pan?

Right, I'm off to make a cup of tea with kettle-boiled water

I cabnot bear all the twee shitty photo frames rhat everyone (apart from me) seems to obsess about - ones that say "family" "best friends" "love" etc. I am NOT thick and there is no need to label your fucking photos for me!

beards on men.Hd brows, false eyelashes and duck pouts.
please let this end soon, am surrounded by men trying to look like explorers and tranny camels

LaQuila, I am dying here at the Destroyed by You series

I can't stand:
People who think their pishy homebrew that they made in their mum's bath makes them artisan brewers when in fact it tastes like vinegar and Special Brew.

Fucking ridiculous beards. I don't mean all beards, just the fucking massive ones cultivated by guys who wear tweed jackets and skinny jeans whilst cycling down the middle of the pavement.

pan fried... Oven baked
Yes!!
