Irritations

[Herlock Sholmes]

As my old Gran used to say Abby, “they’ll steal the sugar out of your tea!” And it’s got a 100 times worse since then as she’s been dead for 48 years. Petty theft is now almost an accepted ‘profession.’ It’s a wonder that the government don’t provide training courses in Shoplifting or Advanced Scum Behaviour. These people are now almost immune from prosecution. If the police do actually make an attempt to catch them, and by chance they actually do catch them, the ‘sentences’ that get handed out are a joke. It’s usually a fine, with the thief claiming that he has no money so they allow him to pay at some derisory weekly amount. It’s a societal trend these days to see criminals as victims of this ‘terrible’ society. A mugger gets as much sympathy as the person that was mugged. And, sad to say, it will only get worse. In 50 years time this country will be like the movie Escape From New York. Maybe not that long. It’s nothing to do with society. We have social security, free healthcare, decent education and people act as if we live in Whitechapel 1888. Put some police on the streets and start handing out proper sentence. Build a few big prisons, catch someone with a knife…10 years served in full. No excuses. Same for drug dealers. If someone kills someone whilst driving drunk or under the influence of drug…20 years served in full.

Anyway, rant over Abby. I don’t want to stray into politics which is a banned topic.

Socks sold in ranges. I'm at the bottom of the range 9-12 which means I have to bunch the excess of the sock behind my heel to make the sock 'fit'.

politicians who start every talking point with.. "let me be perfectly clear. "

To give them credit, at least they're warning the listener they'll about to lie to them.

Just his hair? I think you're letting him off lightly!

He exceeds the definition of "irritation".

Trying single candy bars in new flavors and discovering the hard way that the price has gone up and the size of the product is smaller.

"Your call is valuable to us. Please stay on the line until you can be connected to the next available agent." And then you hear "your approximate waiting time will be six years."

Your call has advanced in the queue. We appreciate your patience. Your approximate waiting time is still six years.

[rjpalmer]

People who feel the need to use the pseudo-intellectual catchword "narrative" in every conversation.

[Wickerman]

The amount of bullshit written about Charles Cross to frame him for the Ripper crimes.

Say it loud, and say it clear!

On The Beach advert. Ghastly tv family. Crude and unfunny commentary from the equally crude and unfunny Paddy McGuinness.

Yes, that advert always gives me the ick too.

The idea of that family pulling up the sun loungers next to me while I'm enjoying a nice holiday in the sun is the stuff of nightmares.

Plus the dad looks a bit like Bernard Manning.

Just awful!!
