Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

I know a guy who's kid is called Jaxon. I also used to work with a guy called Aydon, which is apparently the Italian spelling of Aidan.
Calling bullshit on that. The Italian alphabet didn't originally contain a y (or a j, k, w or x) and it's only modern loanwords from other languages that contain those letters (like jeans or lanyard or w****r).

The American version of the name Marty is virtually unpronounceable by Scots.

I say Mart-ee.
You say Marrrrteee.

 

 

The thing is; it's like you're getting a 'Telt' but just give up.

People who have their social media profile picture as them and their girlfriend/wife.

Either done to show that they actually do have a real life, not 'from up my gran's bit' girlfriend or they think they're punching above their weight and want to show off


I think it’s because they are dirty shagger b*****ds and their other halves don’t trust them.

Isn't it to do with some regulation that they have to be under a certain amount of calories? Still annoying.
Mostly not, their input costs have gone up so they can either make the product smaller or charge the consumer more and the former cause fewer complaints.
