philpy Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 The fact that every second advert is asking me to sponsor a forgotten child in Burma, or adopt a polar bear. And why is it that I can get 4 Burmese kids for the price of a polar bear? Buy any 4 Burmese kids for the price of 2 and get a get a polar bear frozen at last years prices. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monkeyblair Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 The Romanian jakey's on West George Street (under the scaffolding where they are refurbishing a hotel) that seem to think it is acceptable to do 'tag team' begging and shake their McDonald's coffee cups at you as you walk past. Just f**k right off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave258 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I was pretty much the exact same! Sleeping patterns have been completely fucked since about Christmas time, largely due to the puppy we got for Xmas (and life, of course - he's been great so far, though cleaning up his piss/shit off the carpet for the 5000th time each day is beginning to crush what little sanity I have left) Felt a bit like Dee Dee from Limmy's Show at times. "Right, need to keep myself up to watch that Dannone advert again... what's on telly... Jeremy Kyle... Cash in the Attic... Loose Women.... mon Dee Dee, we can do this." I ended up getting about half an hour's kip (predominantly due to a two day hangover induced Fear) before saying 'ah f**k it' at about 6am and just going into work early. Lucky for me I work on flexi time so fucked off home at 3pm, promptly falling asleep on the train home. Best sleep in years last night though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just f**k right off. Not just the homeless. I'm always a bit weary of developing tinnitus whenever I pass Sauchiehall Street due to the charity bucket brigade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 When some football commentators and pundits insist on pronouncing some footballer's names wrongly, even though everyone else around them are pronouncing it correctly. "De-Matt-eee-o" and "Yagielka" are two I've heard recently that have irritated me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"De-Matt-eee-o" and "Yagielka" are two I've heard recently that have irritated me. That does annoy me too I must say, but in the case of Jagielka, are you sure your above pronunciation is incorrect? I'm not saying it isn't, but I've heard it pronounced as 'Jagielka', 'Yagielka' and even 'Jagyelka', and couldn't actually tell you which is correct. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 (edited) Got Metal Gear Solid off a mate and playing through it for the first time in years. Fucking loving it, but the disc is scratched and won't get past the load screen after you're taken hostage. Tried all the familiar tricks to get it working again but no joy, gutted.

welshbairn Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I think the correct pronunciation is 'Yagielka'. The original Polish pronunciation is more like Yagyoolka, but as the family's been over here for a while they might have adapted it a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
