Things We Hate

[SaddlerJonny]

how much does getting shot hurt?

Hardly hurts at all, only in certain places (bollocks, fingers, ears) does it hurt. Anywhere else and it only hurts for half a second when you get hit, but after that it's fine, just get a red mark there the next day.

It weighs 4kg and a little front heavy Jonny Owen , so I keep it there for better maneuvering in tight spaces.

Dr Mantis Toboggan , the welts can vary depending on the power of the gun and the distance from which you're hit. Most places have rules about the distance of engagement and regulate the power of the guns so most of the times it's just a sting though you do get the odd prick sniper with a 500 feet per second velocity shooting you from within 30 feet.

For them pricks, my AK shoots at more than 40 bbs per second on a certain battery and I'll make it my mission to sneak up on the bastard.

People using ellipsis instead of commas or full stops, which has become an increasingly annoying trend.

I always use them if I'm not being serious. The morons on here struggle at the best of time so I need to give them a fighting chance of knowing when I'm taking the piss.

I annoy myself with my overuse of the exclamation mark though!!

I thought that was what emoticons were for. These discoid, yellow guys are being put out of work to the black guys. What are we going to allow next?

A load of parakeets have taken residence in the tree in my garden. All I can hear is them, squawking, consistently.

Ooh, do you have a colony? We used to get loads of them in Kingston (in fact the "Kingston parakeets" seem to have a dedicated Wikipedia page). Noisy bastards, but I used to rather like them. I took a picture of one in the snow once just coz the incongruity of seeing a parakeet in the snow amused me (it doesn't take MUCH). Sadly, I can't seem to find it so I can't really make this not very good anecdote any better.

More or less than paintballing?

Never done it but from what I have heard, less.

Football supporters who sit and tweet everything that happens during a football match. It amazes me they don't miss anything

My AK evolved into:

Is that one of your ray guns on the front mate?

 

[sl1k]

If it were you'd have nothing to worry about mate, I'd be on a one way trip to martyrdom. Get shot down for a BB gun

oyster cards

stuck a tenner on mine online last wednesday so i could go on a night out in london on thursday easily. got there and the guard tells me it takes 24 hours to go through so i have to stick another tenner on. only goes through today. what's more i have a week to go to kings cross and activate it or the £10 disappears somewhere. tried getting a bus to heathrow that night too, mate's oyster card doesn't have enough so spent an hour or two wandering around london looking for somewhere to top it up cause the c*** don't take cash anymore. eventually had to get a very expensive taxi to heathrow. fucking london

Just get a contactless debit card

Should have just bought a daily travel card for about 12 quid.

Having a cold.

Having a cold.

Strange that, I really enjoy it.

 

[Dr Mantis Toboggan]

do u enjoy it the same way you, for example, enjoy university?

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

Having a cold.

AMEN. I had a cold in the first week of Jan, managed to shake it off after a few days, had pretty much a cold free week last week, and now, as of this week, I go and get another one (or perhaps the first one has returned to AMBUSH me, I don't know how the bastards operate). Really UNAMUSED tbh.

Actually let's extend the hate to the whole of January. At least the other winter months have something to offer. December gives us Christmas. February, at a fleeting 28 days, doesn't outstay its welcome and might feature the odd harbinger of spring (oh look, a daffodil, this miserable c*** winter might be fucking off at last)! January, and it's interminable bleakness, just makes me ill. FUCK YOU JANUARY

RavenBish will be along soon to sort your man flu's out.

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

My immune system's not usually this crap (I can only have had a handful of work sick days in six years) so I'll hopefully escape his ire.

Part and parcel of being a parent. Off she toddles to school and comes back as a ticking biological warfare time-bomb of lurgy.

One of the unsolved mysteries of life....................how the hell did it get to No 1?

 

[The Paranoid Pineapple]

Famously kept "Vienna" off the top spot as well, a bit of trivia that's probably rather funnier than "Shaddup You Face".

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

I think the song has a bad reputation but for me, it's-a not so bad...

It's a great shame that no one really makes novelty records any more. It's all too darn serious.

See also cup final songs. When did they stop? As a callow youth in the 90's it was the pip dream that somehow City would battle their way to an FA Cup final and get Oasis to do the Cup Final song. Then they actually get good enough to get to a couple, and no fucker does them anymore.
