Watching the Colombia game with my wife (doesnt like football) trying to give a running commentary was terrible. I'll be watching on the laptop with earphones in tomorrow.

that viagra advert on (sky?) TV featuring a David Mitchell lookalike who dances around like a prick having just shagged some bird whilst still wearing his socks.

It's just a shame that most of it is an act they put on so they can try and go viral or get likes. Too many people filming each other constantly or trying to film everything rather than just going to watch and enjoy the football.
Not just football though is it? Film themselves doing nice things like charity work to get glory, here’s my wonderful holiday or look at all the presents I just brought my child for Christmas etc etc everything is designed to get kudos and reactions these days

Oh no I know it isn't done just then.

That's why I wouldn't want to sit in a pub full of people like it who would rather spend time taking selfies, filming things to try and make them viral and get kudos and just generally knobs. Don't get me wrong it isn't everybody, seeing groups of lads spending more time hugging each other for selfies to post online isn't my idea of fun. Same with pricks throwing beer to try and show they can celebrate a goal more than the next person.

Going to the empire but stay away from the youth who throw beer!

Yep......touched on this on another thread about avoiding watching eng-er-lund in the pub.....

...I reckon there must be some additive or toxin contained in face-paints & brand new generic england tops that make these jonny-cum-lately clowns believe they know what they're on about.....

IF England do actually make it to the final it'll be unbearable........almost to the point that a tiny little bit of me will want England to lose just to spite the pricks...

Far too soon to get carried away.

The weather at night , fair enough in the daytime and evening it’s all good being bloody hot and sitting out at 8pm still in shorts having a drink. But it’s nearly 11 now and I just want one decent nights sleep please!!!!

Do they have the annoying trend in the UK of when they announce upcoming football games saying things like:
"And tomorrow don't forget to join us for Lukaku and Belgium versus Neymar and Brazil."
and of course, I'll be watching "Kane and England versus Sweden". I guess there's no Swedish player worth mentioning.

People who hate their home nation. Back in 2014 my English brother in law was an Italian fan, Welsh in 2016 and no doubt will be Swedish this afternoon. He's happy to pick up his benefits for his 'disabilities' though. Shame he can't naff off somewhere else to do his scrounging.

I'm struggling to deal with new found football experts still.

This morning somebody thought they need to explain to me how a knockout competition worked after counting how many teams in a semi final on their fingers and about 3 attempts.

At the point I just smile and agree and carry on.

Yes, someone recently said they thought the WC final was sure to be Brasil vs Uruguay, until I explained to them, they were both in the same half of the draw.

My wife was trying to tell me there were now three teams left.

My words were simply'And how does that work exactly?'

Mustve had this one.

People who think they're cool because they hate England and the English.

In fact anyone who justifies their own prejudices by claiming the moral high ground. Feminists who hate all men (not all feminists by any stretch), anti-racism campaigners who hate all white people. It's just the same thing you claim to despise.

See your white privilege shining through there

Literally all IT resellers then.

Pretty much yeah! Then when you look at their websites and profiles they go on about 25 years experience etc and when you speak to them they haven't got the foggiest.

A lot are also "Web Designers" who literally buy a template and then pay somebody from India $5 to set it up and then have no idea when they run into issues.

Really shit lookalikes and when you see people getting moist over them. Makes you wonder if they are seeing something different.

Amateur sports coaches (or coaches of any kind) who have done one course and think they are the dogs bollocks and the most educated person on football or whichever sport, and demean anything anyone else says.

*(This is not all coaches, who give up their time and effort for free and that we parents are always grateful for, just the jumped up pricks who do it for the status and think that because they have been on a course their opinion is superior to anyone else's)

Just shout "jockey him" in their face, like a true unqualified u10's coach should be doing.

My ex best mate sold IT and used to try and talk to me about it. It was like having a conversation with a HP brochure, couldn’t answer a single question.

Got my own back tho, did what those shitty web designers do and sold him a template for four figures.

Fair play to you! Have had an influx of them recently, absolutely no idea what they are doing and keep breaking things.

The best one so far this week was somebody who was reselling IT services asking how they set an email up and the web developers asking "what is ftp".

It baffles me that they always seem to actually get loads of customers without having a clue about what they are selling or how to support it.

Divorce lawyers who want one party to just shit on the other to get what they want. Destroying families in their wake just to grab an extra £ or two.
My heart bleeds for you.

Some of them seemingly have never heard of 'children' and 'amicable settlement.'

Hate to hear it. So often it turns out to be a bitter, mixed-up mess.
