People who post on a thread with comments like "I've never heard of him/her/them". Or who say "I watched Graham Norton show but I turned over or off because I've never heard of any of the guests he had on." Why bother posting on a thread about Graham Norton's chat show then. And why both watching a show about celebs when you've never heard of any?

And why bother to post on a thread about something that you've never heard of or don't like?

Yes, that is irritating. I think it's their way of letting others knowing they're above needing to know about whatever the subject of the thread is and/or to dismiss what other people know as unimportant. Weird, definitely.

Heat rash.

Oh God, the dreaded 'pricky heat'! Just a few minutes of the hot Greek sun will start mine off.

why a seaman stain seems to take forever to dry

Well Hello Sailor!

did anyone spot a deliberate mistake

semen of course ahem

Which nicely moves me on to another trivial annoyance. The urban myth that has grown up around the old 'Captain Pugwash' kids' show. I don't know where it started but it says that many of the characters in the series had suggestive names, like 'Seaman Staines' and 'Roger the cabin boy'.
It's completely untrue but has stuck solid and I've even got a book about children's TV that repeats it!
(The book was published with the offending page obscured by a correction sheet, but with a bright light and some patience you can read the text underneath)

But there was a Roger the Dog Show http://genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/d4cb5e5ae...e14a42319602e0

Both good points, I just wanted the OP qualified with a reason.

My brother had arranged a birthday BBQ at his new house for just the immediate family for tomorrow. I then get a message from one of his mates saying they're all going to a birthday lunch with him and do I want to come. I said what about the BBQ and they said "oh, it's been cancelled." I then get a call from my mum saying she's arranged to pop round to my brother's for a few hours instead of the BBQ. I tell her that he won't be in as he is going out with his mates instead which she had no idea about. Now she has to get her husband to go massively out of his way to drop off my brother's birthday stuff at some point this week (they're going away in a few days) all because he'd rather hang out with people he sees all the time anyway than make time for family who he hardly every sees (through laziness).

If I don't recognise a name, I google them and their picture comes up and I think 'So that's who it is' (I recognise the face).

Occasionally their picture comes up and I still don't know them

If a chat show host had a list of guests I didn't know, I wouldn't switch on in the first place...

I strongly agree. I don't watch TV that much nowadays so quite a few TV names today are a mystery to me, but this doesn't stop me from Googling. Or ask my own encyclopaedia: my kids.

As for turning over when an unfamiliar guest shows up? Odd. What's the point of watching it, then?

This.

People that post music and don't give links, rather than just making a list. I've asked twice in the link below for this to be done and have been completely ignored.

I don't like being ignored. It's not exactly hard to post a You Tube link to what you are listening to, as you can find just about everything music wise on YT these days.

Your post had me laughing Jra. I opened the thread and found it really funny, even if it wasn't meant to be.
Thanks for giving me the giggles.

They especially like posting I've never heard of him/her when that person has just died. They come into the thread just to say 'Who?' and go out of the thread again. In the effort it took them to go into the thread and write that they could have spent that time googling the person's name.

C'mon people know your limits. I'm usually being told that I look a bit ill due to being pale and skinny (I'm not really ill just very white) thus I know not to flash my white stomach.

Also Graham Norton's beard - shave it off man, looks bloody awful.

ITV's obsession with green subtitles Can't bloody see them on a lot of scenes...

Not being able to find a pen or pencil when I need one.

A rage will erupt within me and in that moment I want push my family out of the house, slam the door on them, before tearing the house down brick by brick with my bare hands, because, somehow, it's either their fault or the stupid house's fault I can never find one.

From the inside or the outside? One can never be sure on here...

Or worse, getting to work and trying to remember the door code!

Nuisance Blo**y callers!!

It's not that big a deal, as I'm not too keen on most of the music these people are listening to anyway and it's not the type of thread or forum I should be posting criticisms in regarding that song is crap or I don't like this music etc.

The number of stupid people around.

Yesterday in a pub.

Woman. Has anybody got the time, asking around.
Me. It's 16:27.
Woman. What time is that?

I kid you not.
