First of all it is with great regret that have to announce the loss of the great war on "haitch". More people now mispronounce the letter aitch than pronounce it correctly. It is a sad day.


I wish I had never learned about spelling and grammar, I really do. Obviously I hate the simple errors like aswell, alot, there/their, its/it's, number/amount and the like but it has come to the point where I notice smaller, more esoteric errors.

An example is the incorrect use of the word "that" such as "the man that fixed my car". Those of use who care about such things will know that it should be "the man who fixed my car" of course.

I know that language always changes and evolves but we need to keep some rules don't we?

Things like having a correct pronunciation of a letter are not rules for the sake of rules, they are standards for the sake of clarity.

Major games manufacturers who, after half a dozen messages explaining that your problem isn't resolved, and by the way their FAQ / walk-through things don't actually cover your OS, finally reveal that it hasn't been tested on it (despite the game saying on the packaging that it's one of the supported ones).

I hate game tech support, particularly that of publishers who don't know what the fuck they're talking about. They just have a long list of potential problems, and they pick one randomly and tell you to sort it out.

Restart your computer. Update your video drivers. Your operating system is not supported. Change your resolution. You don't know what the fucking problem is so don't pretend you do, you utter bastards.

3318 mobile web browsing redirecting
My mobile phone's web browser automatically redirecting me to 'mobile versions' of the sites I'm trying to view.

I understand that it keeps the costs down for those who lack either wifi or free internet, but how much do those people use the web browser on their phone, compared to those of us who can access the internet on our phones with little to no cost?

I wouldn't mind if it asked permission to redirect to the mobile site, and I would say no, but it's the fact you don't even get the choice. They know what's best.

Sometimes you get the option to view the normal web version of a page, but they don't like that; it quickly goes back to mobile version at the earliest opportunity (particularly youtube). Some don't have the option to view the normal page, or make it very difficult to find (like facebook)

Also, the mobile versions are often watered down and lacking features that are quite handy on a computer.

Just let me browse the internet the way I am used to please.

Pic related, youtube mobile version.

PS, the only reason I use my mobile for web use is because my laptop finally died after about 5 years of spilt drinks and drunken drops. Towards the end, the left half of the screen had died, the moniter was hanging by a thread to the rest of it, and the disc drive was crying.

Personally I prefer the mobile versions, I don't like scrolling sideways several times to view text that doesn't fit the screen. Also the britfa.gs homepage and brian's postbox don't render very well on my mobile.

Try searching for an app or a browser extension that will spoof your user agent.

Only website that doesn't let me switch to classic view is Hotmail, pretty annoying when I can't click links or view pictures because of it.

Try using Opera Mini OP, although, it seems to use proxy all the time, and I think it sometimes doesn't let me on this site because of it.

My entire presence on the internet revolves around my email address, it has bank details passwords and the whole shebang; if it's compromised I'm absolutely fucked. Maybe I could register another email address purely for urgent email that forwards to my main one, and check that from my mobile?

3292 Property Property Property
I really get annoyed when people refer to houses as 'property'. In business cases, it's acceptable, but I hate how normal people looking for somewhere to live and raise a family have adopted the phrase to make themselves sound more important than they really are.

It sounds so arrogant and emotionally detached. I also hate the vagueness of it; Everything I own is my 'property'. It's like calling your pets 'property'. I want to grab these people by the shoulders and shout 'It's your potential HOME you're talking about!'

I get that a lot of the 'clients' on TV shows (pic related) see it as an investment that they are thinking on selling later, but usually they are planning on living there for long enough for it to be a part of their lives and memories. Even if they used the word 'house' I wouldn't mind.

It's just the exclusive over-use of the word 'property' that annoys me.

Girls overusing the word stalker.

http://www.ninjapirate.com/article/stalking

I have known quite a few girls that will refer to guys who talk to them as 'stalkers' and act creeped out to their friends when talking about him, even though they never hint to the guy they aren't interested in him and sometimes flirt and encourage him to keep in contact with her.

Yeah, I've been a victim of this, but then the fact the word is becoming less serious kind of negates its negative impact. With the advent of 'facebook stalking' the word gets thrown around a lot more. Way of the world.

Evening Chaps,
Just dropping in to express how much it annoys me when I’m sat with all my buddies arguing over a certain subject. I know I’m right because I wouldn’t argue over anything which I don't believe to be true. Anyways so its 4 of my friends’ vs me arguing over how because I have a 3D graphics card I won't need a 3D screen. They claimed i needed a 3D screen or it wouldn't work; they all look at me as if I’m fucking retarded. Anyways i get home and find out you don't need a 3D TV at all. I was right and they were all wrong. PISSES ME OFF.

Harry Hill is a fucking genius. He is also a really nice bloke. I went to the filming of TV Burp about 5 years ago and he was decent enough to hang around afterwards and talk to the audience.

I can't believe you lot are slagging him off just because he is successful.

Many years ago, I was a regular visitor to London's comedy circuit. I was lucky enough to visit a small upstairs pub venue called the chuckle club (hosted by one 'Eugene Cheese'). The rest of the acts were ok, but then came what was one of the very first performances of Harry Hill. It remains after all this time as the funniest comedy gig I ever attended. There wasn't much seating in there anyway, and those of us forced to stand ended up being unable to due to the excessive laughter.
When I see him host 'Comedy Burp' it sort of saddens me that others only get this view of him when I saw him produce a routine that will stay with me forever.

At Newcastle, which has a massive population of rah's and lads, it does become pretty standard to start referring to people as it. I'm not worried that I'm doing it seriously, as pretty much anything any of my friends do, such as archaelogy field trips or such will be greeted with 'WHEY LADS ON TOUR'. If people think I'm genuinely interested in ladism, and banter, then so be it. I like to have a laugh and do devious yet lovable things, indulge in a bit of scoundrelism every now and then...
I see nothing wrong with it to be honest, but I only dislike things like that in culture when it appears that people are doing it for the sake of it. I do it a tad ironically but I also enjoy the 'banter' which goes with it. It's plain fun.
