[Welly]

I hate bullshity speaking - tell it like it is or f*ck off!

I hate Compulsory happiness; like going to a Carnival or an Event......you know it's sh*t and want to go home immediately but you can't because you're there to enjoy yourself.

[DiscoPol]

Cucumber and Chicory for food hates, the French and Scousers for people and Toyotas for cars, otherwise I am a fairly well adjusted individual, oh and soap operas,bloody waste of life those things

banana-favoured chicken lying on the floor. yeah, f*ck that sh*t.

so this on the floor wouldnt be your idea of heaven then Wiggy

Hope the back is on the mend mate, a couple of years ago i did something similar, but my MRI was free, good old NHS, it took nearly 9 months and a boat load of cracking drugs and physio to sort it, sadly now i just have to be aware of the limitations i will always have from that episode

[CalamityJames]

Parties are the same. You have to be happy and party mood. Hate going to one in the wrong mood and you have to be chuffed cause everyone else is.
Best parties / nights out are the spontaneous ones!

if thats all you hate you are either a lucky man,dont get out much.or live in a cave!

No no Omega, I am full of hate, that was just a starter for 10!

looks ok to me (it doesn't seem to suggest peeling the bananas first mind...) because it's made with real bananas. real bananas are not banana-flavoured - nobody f*cked with them to make them taste like that.

i mean the food additive that is supposed to taste like banana but actually tastes like a chemistry experiment that's gone badly wrong.

[Welly]

I went to a 'show' in Amsterdam in 1992 and saw a rather large black lady do something with a Banana.......

I also used to work with a chap in Kettering who could fashion a convincing gentleman's 'helmet' onto the end of a Banana using his teeth.

Suffice to say I don't like 'em either.

Me too!

I also hate:

- when you go to a restaurant and order a Coke, they put a slice of orange/lemon/lime in the glass
- people who chew without closing their mouths
- car insurance premiums and the bizzare and unfair way in which they are "calculated"
- gay people who are overly and artificially flamboyant in literally everything they say or do (I have no problem with gay people or homosexuality at all, but calm down! I don't make a song and dance about being straight, and nobody actually needs to know anyone's sexual orientation unless they are actively chatting them up) - controversial one, this, I know - mods delete if you want
- health & safety nazi
- Justin Bieber
- Hollyoaks
- Citrus fruits
- People who insist that you have to have a drink, and that there's something wrong with you if you don't, even though you both know you're a tee-totaller
- The "Go Compare!" adverts with the stupid opera singer guy
- Managers who insist on being called "Mr. <surname>" or "Sir" and will tell you off if you don't
- Any vehicle on the dual carriageway or the motorway which is incapable of driving at motorway speeds (construction equipment, farm vehicles, etc), or on twisty single-carriageway roads with 60 MPH limits - if you need to move your tractor 20 miles down the road, put it on a sodding trailer and tow it at 60 MPH.
- The army of elderly ladies and gentlemen who insist on driving at precisely 40 MPH regardless what the speed limit is (i.e. will speed in town, but will slow everyone else down on single-carriageway roads) - usually found in a Nissan Micra
- The smell of eggs cooking (turns my stomach and makes me feel physically sick)
- Mayonnaise, and the act of putting mayonnaise on EVERYTHING (particularly chicken burgers and pre-packed sandwiches)

This is an abridged version of what is basically a very, very long list.

I'm a grumpy bastard, and I'm only 31. God help the world when I'm an actual cranky old man.

[DaiRees]

1, Inconsiterate, discourteous, dangerous and generally very poor driving standards.
2, The vast majority of local taxi drivers (see "1" above).
3, The vast majority of old drivers (see "1" above).
4, The vast majority of young, "chavvy" drivers (see "1" above).
5, Piss poor customer service sandards in this country (and the fact that we generally just accept it).
6, Samsung UK (see "5" above) - don't ask!
7, The piss take that is fuel prices.
8, The piss take that is insurance prices.
9, The piss take that is taxation.
10, The government's policy on just about everything.

I am that grumpy old bastard!!

[Doggy]

I am that grumpy old bastard!!

You are but a beginner, (at least according to my family).

Some years ago, my grown-up kids coined the phrase, 'Dump the Grump', to describe delivering Doggy to the pub.......

[CalamityJames]

Don't feel too bad highlander, I agree with you on most of your points (except citrus fruits and mayo [unless it's in my cooling system!]), and I'm 'only' 25. Worrying stuff!

[sirwiggum]

Mushrooms. The fact that they have to put them into every bloody thing, so I'm at a restaurant and I have to ask "Do you put mushrooms on your meatfeast pizza? Do you put mushrooms in your lasagne? Do you put mushrooms in your chicken pie?" etc.

The general public for being sheep and buying fleets of 318is and Golfs, and not enough C6s for me to enjoy when they're cheap.

Capitalism. The fact that bankers and property speculators got away with running the country into the ground, and bankers get a bailout and bonuses on top of that. It is then up to the poor to protect the wealthy by bearing the brunt of cuts and extra taxation.

Suburban neighbours. Especially when they find out you rent. Immediate outcast.

Having a living room window close to the footpath. Need big net curtains to stop nosey people, and kids can wrap the window and run away
