Things I Hate...
We were having a few scoops the other night and , after the usual "Meaning of Life" topic, drifted onto things we hate, or, at least, can't abide. Got me thinking...
(a) The feeling the morning after a valiant, solo but ultimately doomed attempt to significantly reduce the EU wine reserves.
(b) Going to bed with Katy Perry but finding that during the hours of darkness she has turned into a moose. (This usually follows (a).)
(c) Professional scousers. Like Cilla, and Tarbuck, the comedian who is about as funny as AIDS but less welcome.
(d) People in 4x4s who don't acknowledge you when you let them out at junctions. A pox on them.
(e) Women who bleat on about a "Glass Ceiling" when we all know that for 3 weeks in every four they become Pol Pot in pantyhose.
(f) The International break, which we were promised would make Engerland a world force in football. Again.
(g) Racism. Unless it's against the French. That's allowed.
(h) WWF at every corner kick....
(i) Other people's kids who kick the back of your seat all the way to Alicante.
And then it dawned on me... nothing... NOTHING comes close to the feelings of hatred I have for the RS.
From the badge-wearing, scarf-raising, dirge-singing retards who stand on the Kop every week before their flight back to Oslo, to DJ smacking Gerarrrrd and his crease-head, to Suarez and the teeth he stole off Red Rum's corpse, to Benitez and his 'small club' jibe, King effin Kenny, Shankly and the boot room, the luck that always goes their way in derbies, the way referees allow their whining, diving ways to ruin every match...
Lady Luck must be getting rogered by half the team, the way upstarts like Brenda embrace the "Liverpool Way" by trying to influence referees with his pre-match pleas to all and sundry, the way the BBC chiefs all appear to be RS, disappearing into the gents and knocking one off with a photo of Gerrard in their left hand...
And derby matches. I HATE derby matches. There's one tomorrow, yer know.
I should go for a lie down.....

Also, my wife doesn't look like Katy Perry unfortunately — she goes to bed a moose and wakes up a moose — although she does a mean chicken and ham tagliatelle — bet Katy couldn't. She also couldn't care if the Toffs win, lose or draw... so tomorrow, after the latest derby loss, when me and my son come in (me after about 10 pints), she'll tell us to get over ourselves... miserable fucker!

Supporters who get on the back of one of their players. Most of all Suarez. Even seeing his name in print makes me ill. The lowest form of racist, cheating despicable vermin ever to kick a football. Don't get me started on Gerrard.

611 Posted 27/10/2012 at 22:53:12
I hate even the smell of em.
615 Posted 27/10/2012 at 23:07:02
Drivers who wear hats (baseball or trilby) guaranteed menace on the roads.
Being able to spot "the formula" and therefore outcome of every TV show 2 mins in.
People without judgement who rely on stats.
Not getting what's funny about monologues about a la Bishop and Macintyre.
Refs addressing players as "Becks" etc
Managers being paid so much and simply protecting their loot so the likes of a Clough or Shankly arising has gone.
The cartel of the energy companies particularly pretending there's genuine competition - fuck right off.
Ditto the financial sector including all banks investment or otherwise and the self policing of same that encourages corruption.
I could go on but I need to get up early.

Guaranteed to pay with a dodgy credit card that fucks the machine just for a curly wurly, tin of cat food, bottle of cider and a family pack of crisps.
Davina Mcall.
Blaming refs.
Common sense (there's no such concept)
Clocks going back/forward.
Modern cars (ecu's, sensors, catalytic converters)
The myth we all support "the royals"
Banning AGMs and fans not twigging they're saying "fuck you but keep supporting"
666 Posted 28/10/2012 at 07:45:03
Gillette and hicks not getting a couple more weeks to do the job properly.
People driving at 50 in the central lane with nothing around them.
Everton squandering leads, and Liverpool coming from behind.
England coverage and optimism when a football tournament is on. Cut to the chase and get knocked out when you play a decent team will ya.
667 Posted 28/10/2012 at 08:04:32
And Liverpool.
669 Posted 28/10/2012 at 08:10:24
I'm thinking badge man, the bell ringer, tango man, Newcastle supporters with tops off etc...

They do this at the self service tills in Tesco, but before they pay, they scan their items. But don't bag. They then pay. And then bag.
No wonder they all believe they're this supposed modern woman, having very little time on their hands. No shit.
692 Posted 28/10/2012 at 09:45:13
As for the Norwegians, they're a harmless bunch with their funny hurdy gurdy sounding language and their novelty woolly hats. I never laughed more than when we hammered Bergen in Europe and their fans starting chanting red shite songs at us!
695 Posted 28/10/2012 at 09:46:30
Winter in Merseyside.
Anything ever shown on ITV on Saturday evenings.
Amen to irritating modern cars.......open the bonnet and.......what the fuck?

Just be honest and admit you don't have a special source and you're just quoting from that twitter.
710 Posted 28/10/2012 at 10:30:16
People who use the phrase 'unplayable'.
Those C**TS across the park.

718 Posted 28/10/2012 at 10:48:03
The Glass Ceiling...i'm doing my best to remain calm here...it's what talentless women suggest exists to prevent them from attaining their God-given right to, for instance, a seat on the board of any multi-national company. There are even plans to introduce a law which will force companies to include a considerable percentage of women on their Board of Directors whether they have the talent or not.
Just remember, for every woman on the board of any company means that an ironing board or kitchen sink remains unattended.....

720 Posted 28/10/2012 at 10:54:59
The result of taking too many Brave Pills prior to a Derby Match.
721 Posted 28/10/2012 at 10:49:40
In general. Volvo drivers, because it's the world's safest car, they're either ultra cautious (y'know you can die in a road accident @ 8mph, so I'm not going to go that fast) or complete maniacs.
Ringing up companies, and being met with- "All our calls are recorded for quality control pyrposes- you now have the follwing options; If your mother is a one-legged bi-sexual Albanian please press 1 now" Grrrrrr
723 Posted 28/10/2012 at 11:09:26

I hate it when we give the fuckers too much respect.
I hate it when we don't get into their faces from the kick off.
I hate beetroot.
I hate Lawro... no, maybe 'hate' is too strong there – I pity Lawro.
I hate not being in the Red Brick 2 hours before KO.
733 Posted 28/10/2012 at 11:45:45

No racist conetations at all but I can't fucking understand a word they say and they can't understand me !
As some one has mentioned, fruit on pizza is plain wrong.
I also hate that twat Angus Deeton who has made a living out of being a sarcy unfunny prick.
753 Posted 28/10/2012 at 13:35:53
759 Posted 28/10/2012 at 15:28:48

I think there should be a spike that comes into their finger that makes them wait till the light turns green.
Rob Patterson - be careful about people who say people who make lists using upper case.
Steve Smith - Quite liking is entirely human. Shankley - the RS banned him from their training ground. He never went to Arnoldfield again, came to GP. A man of taste, in the end. I think you got it right.

075 Posted 29/10/2012 at 13:43:25
I don't think I've ever hated a player like the dirty, ugly, cheating, racist Uruguayan shit-bag from over there.

Also:-
(1) Politicians who never answer the question,
(2) every single person on TV wearing a poppy at this time of year when half of them don't have a clue why they're wearing it.
(3) Whinging football managers – just admit your team were fuking crap today so there's no need to blame the ref.
(4) BBC repeating a programme just three weeks after they first showed it — why?
(5) People with company cars who have no idea how hard it is get ya car through an MOT.
(6) Teenagers who have got a mobile permanently welded to their hand as they walk up the street.
(7) Teenagers who have mobiles that are worth more than my car!
(8) Mitt Romney.
(9) Tony "bullshit" Blair
(10) Football “supporters” who can’t name their club's heroes before the birth of the PL.
(11) Anyone who signs off with 'YNWA'
