to be fair if they helped every single person who asked they'd get nothing done.

Actually I totally agree with you. Those five months I spent at Argos were a real eye opener. I have a newly found respect for those in retail.

The price of inkjet cartridges. I got an HP one and it cost more than the printer.
I concede that I'm probably behind the times but it's a frightful con.

I found a guy who does no name brands half the price, just as good, I even get a frequent flyer card, get a free one every so often.

Setting the volume on your TV only to have to keep turning it down when adverts come on because all adverts audio is turned up to 11 to get your attention

Yeah, SSN is also particularly bad for this with that jingle they do before and after the break.

I've had to stop listening to Radio 2 in the morning until half 9 when Zoe Ball goes off air. Who wants to listen to Bananarama and Will I Am at 8am????

Those Gillette adverts that use Rag and Bone Man’s “Human” as an audio soundbed.

I’ll put my blame on you, your music sucks!.

The time it takes to get penalties taken. You get through players surrounding the ref, then VAR which usually takes an age, and then
the bit that really irritates me. Why does the ref' have to go up to the goal line and tell the 'keeper where he has to stand? He knows the rule and if he gets it wrong that his fault.

The pen' in the Czech - Croatia match took over 4 minutes and it's so bloody tedious.

I used to do Christmas shifts in W H Smith lost count of the number of times I went to check stock after a customer request only to find they couldn’t be bothered to wait and had left the shop.
