‘Detailing’
As in ‘I spent the morning detailing my bicycle’.
If you washed your bike and are worried you can’t think of a way to make that sound cool, you have larger issues.

People who've lived in London for years but have either no idea how to get around or refuse to use public transport properly. Yesterday I told my colleague I wouldn't be able to cover at the office in Clerkenwell today (I generally cover if they need it but happen to have a doctor's appointment after work this evening) and she flipped out about getting there from Golders Green. It's literally half an hour if you get the Northern line then a bus from Angel but she flat out won't use the tube, EVER. She made me spend half an hour looking at bus-only routes and Google Street View with her, while she scrawled the names of shops and takeaways on the route she'd have to walk from the bus stop (90% of which was just walking along Rosebery Avenue) . Today she turned up there over 90 minutes late.
I have a friend who's the same and needs me to message them every step of the journey if we're meeting at a pub they don't know, and I still usually have to wander the streets looking for them in the area when I get the inevitable call saying they're lost. Both of these people are fine with using their phones normally AND have Citymapper installed. -

Actually really annoyed me reading this. In the day of google maps theres no excuse for being such an absolute loser.

Conversely, it used to mildly annoy me when people in London have no idea how to walk between places that aren't on a tube line. I used to work on St Martins Lane and my colleague (who grew up in London and used to work on Oxford Street) was amazed when I said I was walking up to Oxford Street.

'Effort' and 'suffer' in the context of cycling.

People who have lived in London for over a month and don't know how to get down in to the sewers. You just lift a manhole cover!

Autoplaying ads in Chrome loading in while I'm trying to read. I went into the settings and blocked them once Google said they were introducing that last year but it's done absolutely nothing. Was reading an article just now and got that annoying Peloton one with the woman yelling at people around the UK, then one paragraph later another appears telling me about some guy with Parkinson's, then as soon as I scroll past that the shouty Peloton woman is back again.

What the fuck is a patreon?
Somebody who wants a "philanthropic" cover story for giving money to webcam girls.

But your link shows that the sponsor is called a 'patron'.

First world hate- fucking Sonos is a pile of shit! I just want to play music from my iPad across the system- how difficult should that be. Fucking reboots, updates and it still doesn’t work properly, I don’t want to reprogram Wi-fi channels I just want to fucking listen to Talking Heads you piece of shit. complete waste of money and probably the item in my home that enrages me the most.
