    Following the demise of such high-street favourites as Woolworths, etc, which businesses/shops would you like to see go under? I mean, if there were no people losing there jobs and that, of course. I don’t mean to be disrespectful to them.

    So, who would you gladly see the back of?

    Me:

    Iceland: Profiting from selling crap to obese people, when better nutrition is what’s really needed.

    McDonalds: See above, plus they’re ****.

    Carphone Whorehouse: Who cares if you’ve got the latest **** flashy fashion-symbol? It’s a **** phone, ffs.

    Chain pubs: Putting decent pubs out of business, and never having any decent beer on tap.

    Hackett: Nasty, nasty clothes, worn by total w4nkers.

    BT: for medical reasons (my sanity), I will not go into detail. Utter, utter useless **** ****.

    I’d better stop there. I can feel the mist descending, and my bood pressure rising.

    Where’s me Valium?

    Bernard matthews – Selling absolute sh1te for years, now trying to look farmy and wholesome.

    Subway – For gross smell on every high street.

    New look – I’d love to not have to go in there ever again (with the wife obviously!)

    JJB – (looking likely btw) for selling nedwear (chavwear in scotland) to the masses.

    Starbucks – After a particularly distasteful incident in Barcelona involving an asian homeless women with a baby and a toilet with a keycode lock.

    Costco – I don’t know why, just don’t like the idea of it.

    SKY – To bring the premiership footballer back down to earth with one huge **** earth shattering bang!.

    All the picture loans type folk who pray on the feral and the feckless.

    Celtic – for personal reasons.

    British Gas – lets just say I have my reasons!
    Ryanair – Michael O’Leary (no other reason required IMHO).

    Primark – Their clothes are cr@p but then again that may be because they are made by 10 year olds in sweatshops.

    Sports shops that don’t sell sportswear primarily to be used in sports activities (running from the police isn’t a legitimate sports activity).

    Oh and AW Helicopters. Then there might be a chance that the British military won’t once again have a completely unsuitable aircraft (FLynx) thrust upon them just to protect British jobs.

    Wiggle, CRC, Merlin and all yer LBS’s. Who needs a rear mech that’s 20g lighter, lights that have 20 more lumens than last year etc? They’re just selling lifestyle upgrades to middle-class wannabe-downhillers. They’re only bikes FFS!

    What’s wrong with the Lynx?

    Daffy – Its not the Lynx thats the problem here, it does what it was designed to do, its the Future Lynx that’ll be the problem. Great for the RN, sh!te for Teenie Weenie Airways.

    Ryanair – bunch of ar$eholes (luggage allowed flying out, not allowed on the way back – size issues).
    Starbucks – for closing Seattle Coffee Company.
    McDonalds/Burger King/KFC – all the chavs would die starving.
    Island – awful, vomit-inducing ads.
    Barclays/Lloyds/etc – ain’t it obvious?

    Starbucks – for closing Seattle Coffee Company.

    That’s why it was started by the founder. Her business plan was always to create a market so that one of the big ones from the US (Seattles Best, Tullys, Starbucks etc) would come and want to get an instant foot in the door.

    Back on topic… estate agents.

    Sky TV and The **** S*n ‘news’paper…oh and HMV and chain pubs (Litten Tree etc…argh!) and also the entire financial and insurance industries, little more than extortion.

    also, could I class war mongering governments as businesses?

    To be honest, I hate most things except cycle industry, independent record shops/labels and local farm shops and stuff.

    I’m a bitter, cynical old bastard, and I’m only young really!

    Any company such as those advertised by Carol Vorderman, who appear to say if you are in debt, the best thing to do is go out and buy a brand new car so your neighbours admire you.

    All the companies who advertise in the afternoon making old people feel guilty for not having pre-paid for thier funeral, as it makes them a burden on thier family. Always nice to be reminded you are old, worthless and will die soon. I dont understand why these sick adverts are ever permitted anyway.

    Any company that is GREEDY!

    It would appear in this day and age that it’s not what you do it’s how much dosh you make.

    People don’t appear happy/content with making a product and selling it AKA Tesco, originally sold food, they are now in to everthing, greedy barstewards.

    There will be a revolution before long. (according to my Grandad anyway, God rest his soul)

    I sometimes worry what sort of world my 2 kids have in front of them.

    Can’t see the problem with Tesco, if they beat the other retailers at their own game then I say well done.
