Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

Folk pretending to be statues in city centre streets. What is the point? You've got folk busking, doing magic tricks, making things with balloons. All people with some level of talent. Then you've got these tosspots, painting themselves battleship grey just to stand still.

You take that on to Britain's Got Talent and you're finished before you've started. Utter waste of time.

Anyone else think that some of the BBC's stories are starting to look like a teenage girl's MySpace page? Or whatever they use these days. Bebo?

Here's an example: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/special/2014/newsspec_8529/index.html

It's an utterly horrific mess :thumbsdown

It looks horrible so I didn't bother reading. I assume 'Helmand's Golden Age' is an article about the development of jar-based mayonnaise, so it was probably a pile of shite anyway.

Wrong type of attention-seeking bullshit?

When I was in Paris last summer the streets were packed full of people trying anything to make a few quid - the usual ones selling souvenirs etc, the 'find the ball under the cup' tricks etc, and of course these statue folk.

Then there was one genius sitting on a wall beside the Eiffel Tower with a box of lettuce, a cute fluffy rabbit and a sign saying "2 euros, feed the rabbit".The kids and parents were queueing up and the boy was f**king minted.
