I agree with you both ^ I always swore I would vote in every election because the suffragettes made it so I could.. But this corrupt system is pants, and exercising our right not to vote is sending an equally powerful message- it's got to be better than my picking some random name on the ballot paper, because honestly, I've not a clue who these people are, or what they stand for!

It makes a government of lunatics more likely IMO.

I wish I better educated on the subject, and that the world was made up of more decent people running our authorities

26% turnout -disgraceful.

One of my pet hates is certain language that's often used now. Like...when it's said every couple of words. Trending, hashtag, on point, on trend, smash it, make it my own, at the end of the day (at the end of the day I go to bed lol) I turned around and said...(do people really turn around  before they speak, lol).

I agree with you but know it will never happen because people or sheeple follow the rules and dictates of a controlled society where they feel they have a voice. They don't, because whatever's promised by any party in the run up to an election rarely if ever comes into fruition. Once whoever's in power will do what "they" feel needs to be done, and how often has that helped the average day to day person just hoping to get by in life ?

Agree - may i include: its fresh, its relevant, you nailed it, that killed me . . . and my personal fave (to hate) . . .  its trending right now.

News headlines making out everything is a catastrophe!!!

"And in headlines tonight . . . scientist have discovered farting gives you cancer"

Blah blah

Sorry to bang on about Americans but as you know its prob gonna head this way . . .

"Where do you come from?"

"The Pacific North West"

 

Wot !!!???

But what would happen if no one voted, if turnout was 0% Would they decide among themselves who should be in charge, or try harder in the next election?

I'm adding use of the phrase "The big freeze" for a couple of days of cold weather

If no one voted there wud be a referendum on how the country should be run and massive debate. Politics might just get the heave and another accountable governing body (non political) put in place

On yeah, sorry - i hate politicians

People who say "soz".."lol" etc in real life. It's bad enough getting a text from your teenagers with text speak but when they start using it in conversation everyday they're heading for trouble

 

Marzipan

 

Absolutely hate the stuff. If I get given cake, I peel it off with the delicacy and skill of handling radioactive materials making sure I dispose of it with a similar level of care and attention.

 

Inconsiderate Driving 1

 

People who continue to go through the lights even on red. Seeing far too much of it and it's just plain dangerous.

 

 

Inconsiderate Driving 2

 

I am noticing too many drivers (mainly women in my experience) who you can see clearly playing with their mobile phones on their laps. Their eyes flicking up and down. Do these drivers think they are being clever or discrete?

 

Inconsiderate Driving 3

Drivers who park on paths. Showing no consideration for pedestrians or people with disabilities - I have seen countless examples of parking which forces pedestrians on to the road!

More inconsiderate driving to come...

People who drive one handed with their mobile phones to their ears, even whist negotiating corners or overtaking 

 

To solve the problem....

 

Confiscate mobile phone and crush it.....

Confiscate car and crush it....

I am not a driver btw  

Budgies.

 

+1

 

Even though I am a driver.

drivers who indicate left into a bus lane on the pretence of turning into a road, almost squishing cyclists late but are really going to use it to zoom along the bus lane and get ahead in the traffic 

 

what's wrong with my chirping cousins? 

Penguins are cute budgies are... well they're not.

And they're cooped up in a cage  

 

Shaving

I wish someone would invent a cream that keeps my facial hair away for at least a week. Two weeks would be just great.

I don't believe birds should be in cages or aviaries   

I love marzipan Can you send yours to me please?

Too right. When I was in Australia I saw them wild, flying around in flocks. Thats were they should be.

 

Although they don't look nice close up. I was scared of my Nana's one.  

Laser treatment?
Plucking?

 

 

Almost every boss i've ever had!!

Jumped up lil Hitlers!!!

you can have mine as well, cant stand the stuff either.. i too peel it off & fling it 

 

I have always said, if you want to get information out of me, then you don't need any sophisticated interrogation techniques, just make me eat marzipan. I will tell you everything long before it reaches my mouth.

 

Yep, I'll ship it anywhere you like as long as it's heading away from me.

I love marzipan - I love making marzipan fruits for C*******s 

HAte marzipan AND sugared almonds AND icing on cakes

Hmmm...what are/is/am C*******s ? 

I don't hate it but I'd eat anything else before that on the menu

Yay

Smart arsed phrases like ...

'Not fit for purpose'

'There's no "i" in team'

'We are dynamic and innovative'

'We head up a user-led facility'

 

I often say ... you know the phrase, "There's no "i" in team?"

Well there is in our team cos the boss is a tit

 

People who insist on taking a phone call whilst trying to checkout at the supermarket...
