Most overrated - a thread about overrated things

It's been like that for at least 15 years.

Barrow-in-Furness circa '98 was a rough old place. Nice.

Doctor Who (Cares?)

If Daleks were replaced with cats....

They had those fucking daft cat nun/nurse* things.
*dunno what they were

The Sisters of Plenitude?

But they were shit
and probably overrated

The Sisters of Plenitude?

This amount of knowledge is not healthy, but yes.

I stopped liking Dr Who when Tom Baker finished.

Meatloaf,the fat useless bastard not the food

The Bee Gees....Two down ...one to go

But they were shit
and probably overrated
Not that I know anything about this but isn't the whole point of Dr. Who baddies that they be pretty lame, along with the highly unconvincing special effects?

Also - I see even Google has now boarded the Dr Who party bus.

Oh well, just 25 more hours to go before it'll all be over.

Or will it...?

It'll never be over.

Banter. The use of the word banter, and those that over use it. It's not banter you idiotic prick goblin, its just you being a fucking pleb. Just because you smashed your head enough times to fire up two brain cells and for the friction to allow you to understand a new word, it doesn't mean you have to erode it into the ground. Describing your drivel as banter by actually saying that it. is . banter, immediately negates the whole fucking point of the exchange and thus, renders the word pointless, and you sir, a fucking dickhead.

Also shortening the word to Bants or whatever seems convenient. For that, I hope your cut yourself very gently only for the cut to get infected while you're in the middle of nowhere and it has to be cut off. Preferably with a dull blade.

The people who beep all their stuff and just plonk it down, pay for it and then start packing it. Why not do the sensible thing and scan it and put it straight into a bag, dickheads.
OMG this X 1000.

Because it need to be weighted? even though the machine claim to accept your personal bag.

Why did I know you'd say that? ;)

Judging by how many incarnations there have been of The Doctor, I can believe this.

Like I said, not even people who bring their own bags, people do this with the plastic ones, they should be banned from supermarkets and forced to survive on things they find on the floor.

Ah, didn't see that, only saw what mousey posted.

Most machines struggle with panniers/backpacks but not with your own plastic bags. Use those. Or why not bag it at the checkout, then transfer it after? It's then that I tend to remove all the outerpackaging and stick it in the recycling bins.

Ed, remind me to never go shopping with you.

Partly because I got a bag which make carrying a plastic one redundant.

They wouldn't survive long in my house. I hate to think what unseen life forms exist on our floors.

Really? As someone known for his storage solutions (racks on racks etc.) I fully expected you to have a few bags in bags in bags.

Incidentally, I do carry a pocketable rucksack for emergency.

"Help, this man is choking, is there a rucksack in the house?"
