X Factor. Can't stand the stupid annoying music, and it seems to go on forever. And I personally just dislike watching person after person sing, I just get so bored and it's just so pointless...Matt Cardle? Oh don't hear about him anymore do we? :closedeyes:Dancing On Ice! ARGH! My mum likes it, so every year I have to endure it with it's loud annoying music and the stupid loud audience, it's a load of "celebrities" (well, nobodies) poncing about on an ice rink...and they copy Strictly Come Dancing! Silly ITV. Anything with chavs or dumb teenagers in. Oh and now the advert has just come on...that bloody Lee Nelson thing. It was on once while I was waiting for Family Guy...ugh, such trash. As if this country isn't infested enough with chavs!

Love the transport rant Mark, although I am guilty of the repeated button pushing with the train doors, except that I do know how it works. It's mainly with South West Trains, as the door buttons take ages to light up, I just feel the need to push them I feel very uncomfortable with strangers being close to me so I tend to do what I can to block the seat next to me on the train. Wouldn't block 4 seats though, even though I'd love to, infact I'd block the whole carriage if I could :)Buses aren't as bad, perhaps because people don't stay on for as long, and you don't get people with massive bags and briefcases!And I always get in people's way Most of the time I'm in my own world and I struggle to be aware of others So if I need to go in my bag or whatever, chances are I'll just stop without a thought, but it's not because I'm stupid or selfish, I just lack the awareness. I should get a personalised hoody saying "WARNING: AWAY WITH THE FAIRIES" on the back :lol:Or in my case, away with the cats.

Aww Sidders! For a rant it was very well written! I know how you feel though. Not sure I've had an experience quite as unfortunate as yours, but I can have bad experiences with people etc in supermarkets. So many people, so many slow people who just don't seem to realise what is going on, screaming brats...sometimes I feel so overwhelmed by it that I end up feeling quite dazed, lost, and kind of like a zombie. Add that to the way my eyes glaze over when this happens, I get a lot if funny looks, people must think I've taken something!When I'm with my mum this never happens but on my own I can have bad times!

I know, it's a real shame she had that drug problem. I guess they did try to make her go to rehab, but she said "No! No' No!"

Just seen your post again Mark...you got Bailey at 6 weeks? That's quite young for them to leave their mum!As I am sure most of you know, we have recently got a new kitten, Hermione! She is now 10 weeks old and is a silver/greyish DSH tabby but she has some Bengal in her, evident by her facial markings and the noises she makes.You can see what I mean in this short video about Bengal Cats: Most cats make that noise (known as trilling) but Bengals do it a lot more and it sounds slightly different. And when Hermione does miaow, it's very quiet and raspy, apart from the odd "normal" one!So yeah, exciting! Tango (and Poppy) with Maine Coon, Hermione with Bengal. Such interesting cats!We do like the name, it's unique, and her brothers are called Harry and Ron so we wanted to stick with it. But it's quite long and awkward to pronounce in a way. Some other names we thought of were Phoebe, Bella, Millie, Minnie, Luna, Lily and Izzy. Out of those, I think Millie, Minnie and Luna are the ones that suit her the most, and today we have been thinking again about changing her name. She doesn't seem to know her name yet so it won't do any harm to change it. Luna of course is another Harry Potter name, the character is eccentric/different and the kitten is, with the Bengal in her etc. Plus, Luna sounds like lunar, aka the moon, and with her silvery colour...but my mum isn't as sure Blast!Oh and I nearly forgot - today is Tango's 13th birthday, which is 68 in cat years!

Rant
I very much agree wth this statement.I have pretty much the same rant, when someone is nice and most people like them, tra la la...but actually, they are not as nice as they seem!Or maybe they just talk to someone bitchy too often and gradually get influenced by them, I dunno.Oh oh oh and when you discover people bitch about you behind your back...about the stupidest things! In other words, they don't like you for who you are and have nothing better to do than have sneaky, horrible conversations. Sorry I don't live up to your expectations, but I think you'll find most others don't have a problem with me, they are mature enough to accept me. I do actually try to be calm and not annoying but 1) It's quite hard to be someone you're not and 2) Why bother? I like me. If people don't then fine, you know, can't please everyone. But don't be in a conversation if I'm there if you're just going to moan behind my back about everything I say.Oh and when you get accused of being attention seeking by having a few nice photos of yourself on Facebook. Right...I can see where this is coming from, we all know someone like that...but it's quite disheartening, because I've always been proud of being unique and a bit different to most girls and pride myself in not being that girly "I love myself" person. That is not who I am, I think it's perfectly acceptable to have some nice looking photos on Facebook, especially as most of my photos are me looking casual and pulling silly faces. Excuse me for wanting to look nice in a minority of photos! I didn't post them to get attention. I posted them because for once, I looked nice, it was my birthday and I was all done up etc. You could argue people may have different opinion on what counts as attention seeking, but I reckon most people would not say I am. Someone who constantly posts posing photos, yes. Someone who's majority of albums is them posing, yes. Not me then.And my final rant...WHY DOESN'T THE UK SELL MUCH MILKA?! MILKA MILKA MILKA MILKA! :)Thank you and goodbye

Awesome Adam!And Phil, I have been once before, saw the Half Blood Prince. The screen is IMMENSE! I couldn't get over how big it is! My mum and brother haven't been before so it should be exciting times :DI think for a meal we will go to Frankie & Bennys at the O2, I think there are only 2 others that are closer but the O2 is more fun/interesting and it's not that far on the tube I personally love Frankie & Bennys and my mum's never been. I feel as though we should go somewhere more "special" but then again, money, haha! I like the atmosphere there a lot...and the food...and the Pina Coladas <3:wub: Excited now!

Soooo jealous of you Adam! Like I said on Facebook, had I realised that they were doing the wristband thingy and giving them away on the Wednesday, I may have gone. I'd considered going but found out too late about the bands. But the live stream was good enough! Almost like being there, minus the crazy fans and the pushing and shoving :PWhen I went to the Order of the Phoenix one, I was kinda near to the front but as I was on my own, I didn't want to edge my way forward You were lucky you gradually got to the front!Judging by the photo of David Thewlis, you were at the front when he went past. JEALOUS!!!! He's such an awesome actor and seems like such a lovely guy, I wanna meet him :(DAMMIT I really wish I'd gone now >_<Ahhhhh well...I just booked tickets for me, mum and brother to see the film at the BFI IMAX on 1st August, it's the nearest date with decent seats. AND they had premium seats right at the back...so I snatched them up! I didn't stick to my plan of going to the premiere but I am sticking to my plan of doing something decent with my family, rather than the usual local cinema and McDonalds afterwards It's going to be Britain's largest screen, 3D, premium seating, and a meal in London afterwards.

The crap never ends for my family does it?The landlord wants to sell up. So we will have to move house again. For the 12th time! In the past I've never been too bothered by it and looked forward to the new place but I really don't anymore. I just want to stay settled now I really like this house, my room, the layout, the location, the friendly people in the village and the local shops it's easy to get to work. Add the stress it's causing my mum, the reaction my brother will give when he finds out, and the poor cat, he gets stressed so easily, it's so cruel moving them around so much I don't think I can take it!Oh and if we go through a different letting agency that's a ridiculous amount of fees, on top of the normal moving costs...This I guess is where it would be easier if my mum was on the council housing list. But, even though I'm not one to stereotype and stuff...90% of the council houses in this area are in rough areas unless you get lucky, plus we'd be waiting for years. Plus our very first house (when rents were together) was a council one and we were burgled, car broken into, car smashed into by drunk/stoned lads. So yeah, I think we've been sensible not to be on the housing list! We've been through enough without having to live in fear ;)And I'm not stereotyping there, I'm basing it on what I know about the rough places around here! It really is bad!So for now we're on a rolling contract and will get 2 months notice if he sells. Hopefully, with the way things are and hardly anyone being able to afford to buy, we will be here as long as possible. He tried to sell last year but there was no one interested, hence we rented it. I know it's a risk you take when renting (not that my mum can afford to buy her own place!) and we will have to deal with it but it came as a big shock! My mum spoke to the landlord not long ago and he said he wasn't bothered about selling and he hopes we will be here for a long time. Ah well!

Legoland Trip - June 26th
I was a maybe up until recently, when I became a no. Sorry! I may have appeared on the attending list though when I testing the buttons when I added the Official Lists. Sorry if that caused confusion (but hey, I did add an Official Attending list! Didn't see any other mods doing that, eh )I can't make it as I really need to save money, which I mentioned before in this thread but my post was deleted? Ahaha. But yes, as I said in the aforementioned deleted post, I cannot make it due to needing to save money, Lego is expensive to get to etc. And I hope everyone who is attending hasan awesome time

I know I always talk about cats...but I am just SOOOO excited about the kitten we are getting in 3 weeks, Hermione! Isn't she just the cutest?? She has two brothers, Harry and Ron. Harry is black with white paws and Ron was similar to Hermone but a tad bigger and more browny coloured. They have been reserved together and their mum has also been reserved.You forget how tiny kittens are until you go and see them! She is just so adorable, they all are!*Claps hands and squees with excitement*
