£2million now apparently! Which is pretty amazing, I really didn't think it would catch on like it did to be honest. I didn't donate to Cancer Research this time as I've donated to them a few times in the past, I went with Macmillan instead.

Music videos that break up the song, put dialogue or sound effects over it or otherwise obscure/disturb the actual music in any way. I want to hear the original song as is, just with an additional visual aspect. The song itself should not be altered in doing this.

When folk use the same teabag twice, infuriating.

Seriously, do people do this? That's a new one to me.

That my wife has to find a show she likes on TV the very same fucking nights that I have shows I want to watch.

Better yet, I have modified my TV time to find shows I enjoy for Tues, wed, and Thurs nights because she works those nights and is not home. Yet, I find that every week I have to manually adjust the DVR timers cause there seems to be a new fucking chick show on every night that boots my fucking DVR schedule. Don't fuck with my TV woman, is what I would tell her if I didn't care about having sex

I hate when I try to open a box of cereal or some snack & the top lid rips in half or something like this...

I hate when my wife watches a movie on tv that we own. You wanna watch the movie? FIne, but lets be able to pause when we want to and not have to deal with commercials or scenes being cut for time.

Went to Subway the other day and thought of one. When they put all the meat and cheese on the top half of the bread rather than the bottom. Also, sometimes, instead of spreading out all of the ingredients on one half of the bread, they just shove it all in the center, where it folds.

She yells at me (or rather, used to when I lived at home) to put the seat down when I'm done pissing.

My thoughts: I have to put it up to piss. Your lazy ass can put it down to piss. END OF FUCKING STORY

Having lived with my mum and sister for many years, the toilet seat up/down thing annoyed me too.


I never understood this concept. How can a girl just fall in the toilet? Whenever I sit ANYWHERE... I look at where I sit. Am I going to sit on something? Is there a spider there? Am I going to sit on water? Is it dirty? I always look where I am going to sit... Luckily in my house growing up with a sister and mother they never complained about the toilet seat.

One of my pet peeves is when people get offended when you incorrectly guess their ethnic background. Sometimes its obvious and you may wonder "Why would you guess anything else?" but to actually get kind of offended I thought you were chinese instead of japanese or something is just kind of silly. Especially when they get offended after they ask you what you think they are, or insist that you guess.

About the toilet seat thing, has anyone seen the South Park episode in which they talk about the matter?

I'm sorry but if you get hurt by sitting down you deserve it. It's called Darwinism.

Always check the run way before you come in for a landing. That's a motto you can live by. :lol
