10 Most Annoying Sayings

After much pseudo-intellectual pontificating and gnashing of teeth I realised that to sub-divide succinctly the most annoying sayings known to me to 10 was not only impossible but would, if attempted through heavy editing, leave aside a whole raft of 'sayings' that to this day leave me in a state of shock only equalled by standing naked on a wet towel and jamming my fingers into the most local of sockets whilst enduring the background drone of The Lighthouse Family. So this review topic has sat somewhat lacking in the deepest darkest recess of my Ciao 'Draft' section. However, after suffering ... more

Why Do Such Trivial Things Annoy Us. I had been thinking about what to write about next and as I have already took two ideas from Beatlesgal25 I decided that I would have a go at doing a challenge that the great hiker did just under a week ago, so here goes. 1. "Are you in the Computer". Now this one I both hate and enjoy and use it to have a laugh. Without fail everyday the girl in work does a complete backup of the computer system. Then she walks about the office asking everyone "Are you in the computer" and off course most of them say they are and log out. Well I am sorry but I just hate ... more

I am a pretty irritable person. Most people rub me up the wrong way with their little idiocies. In fact, I know very few people who don't use these stupid sayings on a daily basis.

Do you know the answer? Is there a prize for getting it right? I ... more

I've read two or three of these member picks on Ciao in the last couple of weeks and found them to be clever, witty and amusing. Mine aren't. Nevertheless, here's my top ten of annoyingly tedious remarks. I have included a "snappy response" section for each of these, trying to emulate Oscar Wilde, but unfortunately I couldn't think of any witty ones so opted for the only other options - silliness and insults. However, if fired out quickly as a razor-sharp retort, the speed and venom of response may disguise the lack of wit. 1 GET A LIFE! **************** No, YOU get a life! I hate this one ... more

As i get increasingly closer to old age ( I'm 26 ) I am finding more things to gripe about. ( someone tell me wat a gripe is, is it a ripe grape? ) This worries me somewhat because i fear that i will be a very grumpy old man ( albiet a very handsome one ), chasing kids with hoverboards away from my front garden with a stick. Anyway after much debate with myself i have picked ten. Here goes.................. 1) ''I'll will wipe that smile of your face''!! Right now the women might be able to answer this one for me. I know that cleaning materials have improved over the years and that even ... more
