Today I'm grumpy about...


Television shows on bargain hunts and auctions

What is it with the British and bargains? I understand how one can make cool deals at auctions and car boot sales, but is there any need to have T.V. shows on them? And not just one or two... about four a day, one after the other.

Holidays

Europeans are obsessed with holidays. They can never rest till they have atleast one every single year. They won't rest until you do the same as well.

Girls who wear short skirts and stilletos on rainy and cold autumn days

It's so annoying when these Kate Moss wannabees (have I spelt that right?) stand right next to you when you're waiting to cross the road. There's her with her short skirt, teeny blouse and Miss Sixty chunky heels (which are so totally IN, by the way), and then there's you with two layers of clothing, scuffed fuzzy blue boots and Thermawear hat and gloves.

High Street Hairdressers

People regularly spend upto £30 on a simple cut and blowdry. Wanna know how much that is in Rupees? The conversion rate is about Rs 80 for £ 1. You do the math. OR... you could get your hair cut by a trainee for 5 quid. Talk about taking a risk.

D.I.Y.

Do-It-Yourself for those who haven't a clue. Can you imagine wallpapering your own living room? *evil grin* Maybe I should volunteer to do it for Mum.

Being dragged to a pub by my friends

Thus far, I've managed to avoid this eventuality by keeping my bank of excuses varied and up-to-date. Why on earth should I spend money on an entrance fee to watch other people get pissed?

Boob jobs

It's amazing how perfectly well endowed women feel the need to increase their breast size by astronomical proportions. I mean... did you know that there was a bra cup size like FF??? I didn't. It doesn't even make sense. Why would you want to look like you had two zeppelins attached to the front of your rib-cage?

Waxing and Plucking of eyebrows

All I can say is 'Ouch'.

People who don't comment on one's blog when one has made one hell of an effort to post something in the first place

It can't be THAT hard. The hyperlink is just down there. Stop sniggering Eris.
