Money Business …

There are many things in this world which I dislike, don’t understand, or just put up with. Like politics, the stock exchange or women. Some things however really piss me off. Here is a list of the most important ones.

Adverts on TV you already pay for:

I pay for BBC, and there are no constant adverts for personal loans. I pay for sky/cable, and there are adverts for 3.5 minutes in every 20. I find myself getting up every advert to go fix myself a snack just so I don’t have to watch another advert with Carol Doberman trying to sell me something... No wonder Americans are so fat.

Chatting Up

Why wait ‘till the end of the first date, when the toilets are so close…

 Much like burning yourself on a hot dish, or getting your penis stuck in the toaster, the art of seduction is something that has to be learned through trail and error. Or to give it its frequently used slang name, ‘Pulling’. Going on the pull is one of the practices performed in life which I may never understand. To leave the house with the intention of meeting someone seems wrong. In a world where girls watch romantic/comedy films filled with subtle glances, slight touches of the arm and tired yet timeless plotlines, the grim reality of how men and women meet seems to be so different. What good story ever started with "I was so wasted..."? Actually a lot of good stories start this way, but it will never make for a good ‘Rom-Com’.

Think 'You've Got Mail' mixed with 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' and you'll know what I mean.
