The re-invention of the 80s as something cool

Good call on reinvention of the 80's
I get young people asking me what the 80's were like they fail to believe me when I say rubbish ...wish I could just You tube links to stock aitken and Waterman then bash them with Mallets Mallet till they see sense

Good call on reinvention of the 80's

There were a group of young'uns sat out side the pub I was at the other day, I thought they were in 80's fancy dress, but no incredibly it is the fashion, one of the lads even had a Midge Ure 'tache.

Stevie Wonder.
The work of Vincent Van Gogh.

Weddings

theres only two people at a wedding who care about it. the bride, and her mum.

People who hate popular things simply because they're popular irrespective of any merits they may or may not have. Seems to be common on here. Sad tryhards.

Where does that now place you given the increased popularity of 29ers? 😈

I don't enjoy driving any more.

I used to love it as a reckless, ****less dangerous-driving teen. But sadly I matured enough to recognise the roads were filled with reckless, ****less, dangerous-driving teens and old folk, that it cost too much, and that I was usually sat in a traffic jam in a dented Vauxhall Astra rather than driving a convertible along an empty, winding mountain pass. So I sold the car 5 years ago and just hire or steal when I have the rare need to use one.

ToTall - I don't class 29ers as popular really - only on here and STW is far from being a representative slice of the mtb riding population as a whole 😉

Besides, I never hated them...

The use of FAOD.

You fell into my trap! 🙂

FOAD

the world cup

Indie rock
R&B
Dance music
Football
Soaps
Fruit
Reality TV
Twilight
High heeled shoes

Lord of the Rings - the book and especially the films
Action movies
Top Gear

A & A - oggling over women is just a bit sad IMHO

I don't dislike football the sport but the endless piffle around it annoys me, why do you have to spend hours diessecting it, waffling about the minutiae of it, giving your opinion of how it should be done etc etc just go out and do it FFS.

says longtime STW member...... 🙄

The summer - heat, insects, tourists, hayfever, water shortages . . .

i don't like discussing the following...

the weather
who is sick
state of the country
house prices
xfactor
soaps
eastern europeans
how bad work it
how fat people are

hence i don't like talking to many people in the UK

4x4's
Glastonbury festival
Apple products (iPod etc)
Wayne Rooney
David Cameron
Nick Clegg
Carling Black Label
Office 'buzzwords' - bullsh1t bingo is often played in meetings 😀

Tom Hanks. Ruins every film he's in.

Greetings cards that just say dear X happy birthday love Y

if you have something to say, say it, otherwise save the stamp!

Obesity
Poor quality meat products
Processed potatoes (okay chips and mash type stuff is good, but it's those 'smily faces', Alphabites, croquettes and all the rest of them. There's a whole aisle in the supermarket filled with this stuff)
Supermarkets (I go 'cos they're convenient, but that's only because there aren't any local shops left to go to. Viscious circle, I know)
Babies, new parents and all advertising asociated with them (my son is 9 months old so I'll exclude him, but my word, the amount of tedious small talk, advertising and oneupmanship you have to put up with)

Kylie - I find her really ugly and her voice makes me cringe.
hate coffee, not keen on strawberries either.
can't stand listening to sad football fans chatting about "their" teams (but love football)

Milk - The spawn of the devil!

ugly lazy unemployed people that do nothing more than breed and sponge off our taxes

(there are lots of them so I guess that makes them popular)

ugly lazy unemployed people that do nothing more than breed and sponge off our taxes

Are they popular then or just an excuse for a random Daily Mail style rant?

people who pretend the poor are that way through laziness

I didn't use the word poor. It is not relevant.

People are not ugly through choice

so?

I'm no oil painting and I know I can be really irritating, according to my wife

Dave Cameron - I don't particularly like him, but I'm not sure he counts as popular?

televison
newspapers
radio
the seemingly relentless yob culture (prevelant throughout all social classes)
snobbery
motorcars

Just joining in! I hate ugly buggers too. Especially if they're [url= http://tinyurl.com/34plopm ]fat and lazy.[/url]

ugly lazy unemployed people that do nothing more than breed and sponge off our taxes

what about dazzlingly attractive lazy unemployed people that do nothing more than breed and sponge off our taxes?

I also hate the Sunday Times

It's not opinionated enough, and doesn't pander to the city dwelling lovelies nearly enough!

Good thing is, it's very absorbant

very good point yunki

We should fence them in and let them cross polinate, and see if 'normal' lazy unemployed people that do nothing more than breed and sponge off our taxes are the result, which would make this all more bearable I think.

Products being released which are demonstrably miles shitter than the product they're supposed to compete with. If something isn't going to be at least nearly as good or substantially cheaper then don't ****ing bother...

That's right sorbathane I'm looking at your "blister plasters"! At what point did you say "Yep, looks like compeed but doesn't stick to skin - let's get this packaged up like compeed and start flogging them"?

Fawlty Towers.

Just tell the truth Basil you idiot!

spot on 😆

Football.
Cucumber.

You cad!
