Depends how you like your meat.
If it's cooked at the right temperature it should be fine 
still a confusing message i think
Thank God i'm a veggie

I can see your point
The One Show pair who suck up to every guest on the sofa. The thing that is making me Grrrr at the moment is what they said to June Brown.
"you are one of the best loved characters"
Come On! you say that to every soap character, give us some evidence of the validity of your statement. 
The forcing of new trends on us like . . . .
Joey Essex wearing a watch on his ankle.
I know its his attempt to create a new 'fashion'.
Instead he just looks like a twit.
BBC Radio 1
Real or No real.
What the . . . do they really think we are going to 'adopt' the phrase 'no real' into our language?
It sounds stupid - nothing more or less. Idiots.
X Factor.
Rough Copy guy wearing a skirt thing and constantly wearing a bag.
You are not trend setters in fashion . . . nor music.
That Snickers advert.
The one with Joan Collins.
And that years old Minstrels advert.
How much money are they making out of chocolate to afford those adverts - they are never off our screens
Starbucks.
I like cafe culture but not the sharks that run the coffee trade
Watch the forecasters . . .
As soon as they look at the chart - the eyes go south.
Watch them - straight to London
I just have the BBC One news on while I get read and the news team are commenting on the movement of Mandela's body via plane. We've had footage of the plane taxying down the runway for ages and they have rehoused the same information over and over again with nothing new to add.
At one point they actually said that the flight would take two hours and that they expected the plane to land in two hours !!
Charlie State who was struggling without pre planned questions or autocue managed to use the word effectively three time in two sentences and I'm sure one of them was an incorrect usage.
Gogglebox. There is just not enough of it.

And - the - tendency - to - talk - in - dramtic - punctuations.
Its not cos they have anything dramatic to say - its just them spinning out the dullest of commentaries.
And the use of the word 'skies'
As if we live in a multi-dimensional world.
The word is sky - we have one
Fragrance adverts. They are all without exception ridiculous.

YES !
The numerous plastic trays groceries come in. Then they pretend they're eco friendly by asking do you want it delivered with/without bags.

Being cut off by your fuel supplier (or the like) when you're on hold cos you want to speak to them, and all because it's a freephone number and they're paying the bill

They have a bad reputation Sprout 
Read about customer service people hurrying people off phone without resolving things but cutting them off altogether! Sheesh!
Yeah, I've been trying since Saturday and every time the message is that they have about a ten minute wait so I thought right, I'll wait. The music played for a short while then the phone went back to the dial tone so I rang back and the same happened again
Just like to say my views on those adverts that take the pee-pee out of their own customers have justified and been voted some of the worst ad of 2013
Which one i hear you cry . . . . Santander
And soaps running a story like breast cancer on EastEnders.
And then saying ,
"If you're concerned about tonight's topic we scared the Holy sh*t out of you ... call this number."

They don't deserve the business grrrr
Don't bloody tell me to "Get back to my friends" Amy
Bloody Amazon Assist
"Where there's blame - there's a claim"
. . . if you're a blood sucking leech i suppose.
Right now i really have got my dander up!!
Listening to the weather forecast I heard the phrase,
"There will be some power outages tonight"
OUTAGES!!! 
We're not Bruce Springsteen - we're Bruce Forsyth ... and proud !!
