It's probably because people from Northern Ireland are legally allowed to be British and Irish

What actually is it? It sounds like an African style song.

Never thought of that.

However, there is no such nationality as United Kingdom so still annoys me.

Are you referring to the last few seconds of this:

And also you have to scroll through most of the letters of the alphabet before you finally get to countries beginning with the letter "U".

I don't mind it personally, however the BT sport one does (or did, don't know if they still use it or not). It went something like 'I believe in us'. Cringe!

What's it say on the front cover of your passport, and the details on the photo page?

I concur.

When they had "Written in the Stars" by Tinie Tempah, I think they peaked at intro music for a football program.

Companies wanting something for nothing.
I had an email from British Airways this month stating that as I'd flown with them before they would like to hear my views on things (i.e. a survey). Click below to start survey - this should take about 20 minutes.
I ignored the email, so they sent me a further one this week, saying 'we haven't heard back from you yet etc. please respond..'

I know its only 20 minutes - but its my time, not theirs - and they appear to want me to give it up for free, whilst they benefit as a result.

Busy wankers on Facebook etc.

Like taking pictures of poorly parked cars or people parked in disabled/family spaces with their reg visible, then uploading them to Spotted pages.

Yeah they shouldn't do it, but tell them to their face, not an anonymous post on social media. Fairies.

People who just mess you around rather than just being honest.

Meant to be going to Bournemouth v Arsenal tonight, lad I work with was getting tickets off some matey he knows. This matey has been telling him for last 2/3 days he has the tickets and will drop them round, now apparently he only has tickets v Villa on Saturday.

Just be honest and say you don't have them ffs rather than leading people on.

Just people in general. They make things worse.

I went to see Jimmy Carr live recently. Some c**t behind me opened up a bag of crisps and loudly munched the second Jimmy came on stage. A middle aged woman in front of me kept dramatically yawning and stretching her arms in my field of view. Several people kept heckling really unfunny things and killing the pace of the show and then some absolute arsehole nearby who'd obviously seen the show before started saying the punchlines to jokes before Jimmy delivered them.

I don’t know why I bother leaving the house.

Love Carr but he attracts some proper cunts to his shows. The ones desperate to get insulted by him are the worst.

I agree completely. People are just stupid/irritating.

Driving to work this morning and there is road works on a blind bend near work. It's really obvious that the pathway is closed, so two women walk on the road around the blind bend, with me oncoming. They couldn't possibly have crossed the road and walked on the open pathway safely...

I always get that song mixed up with "B.o.B - Airplanes" and if you search for it on YouTube the two songs come up together so I can't be the only one!

Netflix playing the same trailers over and over again at the end of a film.

I don't give a fuck about Aaron Hernandez!

Netflix pushing a movie is the best way to stop me from watching it. Still haven’t watched The Irishman because of this.

Apparently Netflix have been inundated with requests to make trailers optional but they have outright refused to. It puts me off watching things too.

I actually like having the credits roll after a film and as I watch Netflix through my xbox it's a pain in the arse having to always rush to turn the controller on in that little window they give you to cancel the trailer.

I hate the automatic trailers if that's what you're on about but it does my head in that you are often unable to just watch a trailer before deciding to watch a film on Netflix. On prime when you click on a film you get the option of trailer first so you get an idea about what looks good.

I think if you click into a title on Netflix you can view a trailer but it plays one automatically when you scroll over it anyway. It's a flawed system.

Pritty much yeah, they almost tried to make him out as the victim at one point. He was convicted of killing his future brother in law, and while searching for clues, they found a vehicle in his aunts garage which belonged to him that was used in another murder, that murder went to trial but found not guilty, he then appealed his murder conviction and killed himself, the state has a law where if the person dies while on trial then he is automatically found not guilty, which meant his wife could claim the remaining of the $40 million dollar contract from the New England Patriots.

I just read up on it. Apparently they lifted the conviction but then convicted him again while he was dead. I wonder if his money was ever released.

I'm kind of going back on my "I don't give a shit post now"

The fact that nobody cares about Prince Andrew and yet the young fella and Meghan are being treated like terrorists for wanting to get away from that f*cked up inbred family.

And the rattle in my car somewhere behind the dashboard that I cannot find but is slowly driving me round the bend.

a bloke at work always takes the piss out of blokes sporting a 'man-bun'. 'What's wrong with a ponytail?' he asks (he has a ponytail).
