The disparaging "I've never even heard of..." often says more about the person saying it than the person they are talking about.

The Beeb have started pumping out new depressingly unfunny adverts for f**king Sport Relief featuring Sarah Hadland being all 'wacky'.
Jesus, I hate charity, I hate what it stands for, I hate that it's corrupt, I hate that it gets the government off the hook, but what I hate the most is that you're allowed to make the most dire, juvenile, moribundly shitty adverts and no one dares to criticise because it's for charity.
you missed out that its a deliberate attempt by a public company with public resources, to drain advertising revenue from a private company it competes with.

It's like you know what I'm going to say before I say it.
F**king porn filter not allowing me into the BBC website in this hotel. I assume because BBC is sometimes means "Big Black Cock"...
I'm also angry that it's also successfully filtering out all the porn.

A hotel in the UK or elsewhere?
BBC2 and BBC4 clogging up their airwaves with foreign crime dramas. I don't watch most of our own crime dramas because they're all exactly the same - dysfunctional lady detective in a man's world, tracking a killer whilst fighting sexism and juggling her work / life balance. Oh boy, I hope they team her with a male detective so I can sit at home wondering if they will or won't smear bodily fluids on each other.
Why would I want to watch the exact same show with subtitles?
It is fun seeing what their swear words sound like though.
Although they often just say f**k, and they still subtitle it.
And it is responsible for this being produced, which was very funny when we saw it.

Oh and the chunky knitwear, don't forget the chunky knitwear.
More Facebook 'Look at me' posts pissing me off - this week I've had the following -
1. Here's a picture of my uber healthy dinner tonight - great, once in six months you decided not to shovel chicken nuggets into your greasy gobhole and we're supposed to applaud your healthy eating lifestyle. Oh what a great sacrifice you're making in the name of you.
2. I've giving up alcohol, nicotine, caffeine, sugar, coffee, chocolate, etc. for a month. Yeah and so what? I don't give a shit. Oh what a great sacrifice you're making in the name of you.
3. Looking forward to getting my new ink - presumably a tattoo thingamabob. 'Bit scared as it's supposed to be painful'. Oh what a great sacrifice you're making in the name of you.

Sorry Nil. I still <3 you though.
The clear disparity between the 'What are you listening to now?' and 'What are you reading right now?' thread titles.
The completely over-heated 'flood' news coverage.
1. Sick of seeing a farmer in wellies telling us who he thinks should resign - like that's going to make a difference. What would make a difference is if farmers stopped filling in their ditches so they can grow another few ounces of grain and stopped digging up trees so that their sheep can trample the ground into an impermeable water-chute.
2. People who buy houses on flood plains (at reduced rates) then moan about floods.
3. The media reporting it like it's a national disaster - "SHOCK NEWS! FAIRLY WELL-OFF COUPLE FORCED TO RE-DECORATE!!!"
4. Flood warnings that say there is risk to life. Well, if you jump into a swollen river or act like a total dick and drive your Reliant Robin into a raging torrent, yes, possibly.
5. People who think it's vital that someone important, with a lot better things to do comes to visit, so he can fully understand the horror of wearing wellies and warped laminate-flooring.
New Orleans was a flood.
This is just weather
