I've been looking at Exercises for cutting stomach fat on you tube, the people who demonstrate them don't need to cut anything in fact have a doughnut and a mars bar

In fact I reckon fat dads yoga for beginners could be a winner

Worse at the cinema.

People who film on their mobiles at games when a player scores, instead of celebrating the goal.

There is a great picture I've seen don't know the event but about 100 youngsters filming and this old lady probably 80 standing smiling taking it all in!

Tutting at parents who are trying their hardest to stop their toddler having a tantrum, it really doesn't benefit anyone!

I hate this, nobody seems to live in the moment any more, always trying to record stuff for Instagram or Facebook. I like having moments that are mine and mine only.

If I had my phone in my hand when we scored it would probably end up three or four rows down the stand.

Surely the greatest part of any football match is scoring a goal and winning the game. That is the excitement. You can't be excited when you are trying to film because you are trying your damn hardest to keep the camera still.

There's people who take all the different clips and mix them together to make a video of the whole show. Must take ages.

Liverpool FC

They're not even that good - they can't defend for shit... their GK's are worse than our current selection and sooner or later someone is going to work out how to stop then just running fast at people. Plus all their half decent players will bugger off to Africa for a month after Xmas.

Plus - Klopp seems like a decent bloke and a reasonable manager, but the homo erotic wank-fest that is going on about him in the football world is tedious as fuck.

They are a 2017 version of Keegan's Newcastle. And in similar fashion they'll win precisely fuck all.

Ok, here's one that occurred to me the other day: PE Teachers.

We had Carpenter and McGrath at Ullathorne, and despite the constant arsehole attitude they had, they'd be bellowing "shooooot!" or "hit iiiittttt!" right at the point where you'd be doing exactly what they were shouting, but the spit-laden encouraging would usually distract you and you'd make a right hash of it.

Then they'd turn round and call you useless.

I still have a claim to immortality, cos I beat both Carpenter and McGrath at badminton. They didn't like those apples. :)

One guy I play with does that all the time, really shrill voice screaming GO FOR IT SHOOT when you're in on goal and being needlessly distracting, as if without the great advice you'd turn and play a raking backpass to your own keeper.

Yeah, there's always one. Had a guy like that on my 6 a side indoor team at Ryton, I was in goal and every fucking shot, pass back and goal kick he'd be squeaking useful instructions like SAVE ITTTT, TO ME TO MEEEEEEE, HOOF IT TO TEZZA!

On reflection, he sounded a lot like a loudmouth Alan Ball. Couldn't take him seriously, especially the rallying cry of WE CAN DO THESE, PIECE OF PISS, DO 'EEEEEEM!!

Great times.

I'm sure litter has been mentioned on here at some point, but on Saturday I was driving past Swanswell Pool and there were three girls, 13 to 14 tops. Looked like they were eating McDonald's.

Anyway, one girl finished and just chucked the wrapping over the railing and straight into the Swanswell.

There was a bin, right there, not 10 steps away.

I hate to see that kind of thing.

People being made out to be Martyrs when they've crashed stolen motor bikes or crashed them driving dangerously and died as a result.
Just be grateful they've not killed anyone else with their thoughtless actions.

Really? Where's that happened?

That's my issue, ever since one of them crashed into me when my car was my pride and joy. Off road bikes road burning and being dicks with it as well.

Saw a bloke on the A45 from Birmingham to Coventry where you have all the shops (sheldon is it?) popping wheelie after wheelie and was dying for him to fall off so we could go past beeping and laughing at him.

Its all over the telegraph today about the lad on the quad bike. On the Binley road they put flowers out every yearwhere a kid on a stolen bike got killed 20 years or so ago.

Oh, was the quad stolen? I saw somebody died but didn't know it was dodgy.
Don't think the quad bike was stolen but the one on Binley road that they hold the annual vigil for was.
You see kids on Quads and off road bikes riding like maniacs around the streets and on paths all the time.

Quads are getting more and more common nowadays, don't think I have ever seen one being ridden normally.

There was a car smash at exactly the same place where the flowers were yesterday afternoon too! We were coming back later and there was about 20 people standing by the flowers and 4 motorbikes going up and down JHW but cutting across the roads instead of going round the roundabouts!

When you watch match of the day all you can see in the crowd are people on their phones the whole time. Load of bollocks. Same with gigs too, you will be able to find a much better version on YouTube, don't bother with the tinny shit you get on your phone and enjoy living in the moment.
