Another member of the household comes in and turns the TV on, turns the volume right up and starts flicking through the channels and putting on some garbage that they aren't even interested in watching. Why do people think that the TV absolutely has to be on all the time? This often happens in my house. TV is turned on then this is said, "there's nowt on, I'll just stick this on". Random show they aren't interested in goes on. I say, "why don't you just turn it off then?", followed by, "what else am I supposed to do?" how about not disturb me when I'm just relaxing and enjoying the silence?! How about go away?! At least ask if it's okay to turn the TV on! Oh dear I’m afraid that’s me . I must have the telly on , otherwise I think there’s a power cut 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUBRATS Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Just now, Marauder said: More than likely do, it's something I have never checked and I don't think you've been called a bad person. No , I haven't , but my point is we live in an imperfect world , it's always been imperfect , it always will be , it isn't fair , it never will be , so should I , or you , or everybody give up our priveliged lives and dedicate ourselves to making a fairer world for ALL people ? So people will demonstrate for one particular section of society , but what ignore all the other inequalities in the world , do black lives matter ? , Course they do , do slightly brown lives matter ? , How about yellow ones , how about those who believe in one particular ' god ' , the list is endless , how many black people don't give a toss about other black people ? , Plenty of them out there as well Racism is wrong , we should do all we can to eradicate it , but you will never stop people treating other people differently , and indeed very very badly , 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivans82 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Ever noticed on terrestial tv that the people providing the links between programmes have all got a slight regional accent , but A) they are trying to hide it or B) they are not from that area so can`t quite pull it off or more likely C) they have employed one very poor impressionist to have a go at all regional accents..............none as bad as that false Geordie who was on Big Brother though .

Mister Ting Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 People who watch s##t programmes with 'false Geordies' then having a whinge about it. What do you expect? Learn to listen without distortion and learn to look without imagination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
