Let's all salute the great British chippie, who cares if it is unhealthy. Whenever I go back to the UK I make sure I have a 'fish supper'. Salt and vinegar? Not in Edinburgh. It's salt and sauce. The sauce is one part vinegar and 2 parts HP sauce. It's lovely stuff.

I hate employers who think after slogging your guts out all year a 4 week holiday is enough and then expect you to do a summer school without extra pay . They smile and say its your choice come or stay either way you dont get paid . Am I the only one ?

I heard that Kadir Has only get a two week summer holiday. I thought the major advantage of working at a uni was the holidays.

i hate when people eat with their mouths open. kind of like the hatred i have for gum but much worse. i hate when people bite their nails in front of me and then chew on them for a while as they are crunching in their mouths and then after boredom or whatever it is they spit them on the floor or put them in the ashtray...- that makes my skin crawl.

chips bore me. doesn't matter from where.i have about 3 and then i'm over that. i've never heard of anyone that doesn't like heinz Shocked

- that can't be possible - ketchup is awesome and it's good on so many things.....isn't that right dmb?

Random thought...... why are wet burgers called wet burgers

It really bothers me when people burp and mostly keep it inside, but let a burbling puff of air out at the end.

It also troubles me when men have a habit of constantly, uh, digging at themselves while on the phone or watching TV.

Nuts in brownies and cookies. Hard-boiled egg in anything, especially in anything with mayo when it's hard to spot the egg right away and impossible to pick it out.

People who breathe loudly, but don't have a defect to excuse this.

American shortened and/or simplified spellings like 'nite,' 'lite,' 'drive-thru,' or 'bokay.'

White people who try to talk like black people.

Everything on MTV that's not videos.

People who say 'irregardless' for 'regardless.'

F*ck-you feminism.

This year's fashion according to shop windows.

Using sunglasses as a hairband, where it's part of an indoor accessorizing plan.

Pointy high heeled shoes. Girls wearing said shoes trying to navigate the sidewalk in front of you and you can't get past them.

mayo is disgusting - ketchup used as bread spread - awesome!

something else that bothers me - those that try to push their marmite or veggie mite on me - trying to shove it up my nose and i'm like "no that stuff is sh*t, get it away from me" and then they try to convince me that my nose must be mistaken that this is the greatest smelling stuff ever...
