Question of the Day
Here follows a list, written by you, of things people find inexplicably fantastic, but you know are complete cack.

I know that technically isn't a question, ok?

Abba
I mean, wtf? I don't understand the fascination with a group who only ever made ten or so mediocre songs that everyone's heard a thousand times.

Mama Mia! was the most successful British film of all time. FFS!

Speed
Tried it several times in my wilder days, the only effect it ever had was to make my more sore.

Come on - you know someone from /talk would be over to do this if I didn't.

Now you can say "/talk". Or "CHCB".

TV talent shows.
Football.

Hate them both.

Cricket,
it's pointless.

Tennis.
Also Pointless.

Yes I am australian and I freely admit that a lot of aussies here think I'm mad because I think those things.

Where it's more important to reply first than to have anything worthwhile to say.

Disliking things
Is rather fucking pointless isnt it? When did disliking things actually benefit you in someway?

I dislike smearing shit all over myself and dancing in the town centre.
That's generally been of benefit, I feel.

re thedirtyweeker
Cars - don't get me started!

Buying them, fixing them, doing them up, washing them, paying for them, insuring them, racing them, statistics, Nascar, Formula 1, rallying, upgrading, Top Gear, watching them but mostly talking about them is utterly pointless. They are tools to get you there and back not extentions of your tools.

My idea of hell is eternity with that twunt Clarkson (Jeremy, not Kelly.)

Oh and the Doors, Radiohead and Bob Marley.

hmmn,
That suggests you've tried it then.

Care to tell us how it went?

yes Drtug!
I'm trying to get my head round if it's possible to go through life without a car. Currently internet shopping and walking to the shops (and to work) is fine for me. Will I one day need a car for anything else? Or is public transport enough?

Also TopGear grrrr. 1 hour of buffing the glistening 7 foot cock that is Clarkson while putting up with his LOLWACKY metaphors which consistently fail to review cars. And Hammonds a rat-faced cunt.

As a grumpy old bastard, here goes
Oasis
Rn'B (the new stuff not the original Rythm 'n' blues)
Oasis
IPods (I mean WTF!)
Oasis
Rap music
Oasis
Religion
Oasis
DJ's and MC's and Mixmasters-LEARN AN INSTRUMENT YOU PLAGIARISING TALENTLESS FUCKHEADS.
Oasis
Mobile phone ads "Ashamed of your mobile?" - No. I've had mobiles for 20-odd years now - they're a tool, not a fashion statement.
Oasis
Twats with their trousers hanging down round their thighs - you just look like you can't dress yourself.
Oasis

This is not a comprehensive list.

Damn, I'm old.

All hitchhikers end up murdered no?
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Mon 16 Feb 2009, 11:59, Reply)

That's a risk I'm willing to take
In fact, I've only ever been picked up by one person I'd consider dangerous, and that's cos his driving was atrocious. I don't think axe-wielding homicidal maniacs tend to drive around looking for hitch-hikers.

No, he's not even an 'entertainer'. Do Go West a favour and go and watch them play Pontins, you fuckwit.
