Really minor annoyances

I don’t really watch quiz shows, but my dad used to put them all on and it seems to be a modern thing, try to have less than 10 questions per show.

I wonder if they have found people feel stupid if they get more than 6 questions wrong per episode so have as much waffle as possible to fill up the half hour slot.

I hate the endless small talk. I don't care what someone who I'll never see again in half an hour does for a living.

It doesn't happen the other way does it?

Your neighbour stops you in the street to ask how the family are but before you can proceed you must name the first ten Kings of England and who won Eurovision in 1975.

People answering straightforward quiz questions correctly on telly then puffing out their cheeks as if they'd run a marathon or cured cancer or something.

I like a bit of Pointless but the tension over winning 1k is unbelievable . The other thing is the wardrobe , i mean who dresses the punters , no one wears gear like they turn up in, cant be their own . Looks like they're dressed out of a coaltion between the Heart Foundation and TK Maks returns from 1995.
 
Long wet hair.

Fine if you are showering with a beautiful young lady, but those days are long behind me. I’m in the shower, go to pick up a bottle of my shampoo and find my fingers are matted together with long wet hair. If I try to pick it off, it just wraps around the other hand. I end up standing there trying to do a quick flick of the wrist under the water to get rid of it.

It feels like I live with a family of wookies.

I don`t think any King`s of England have won Eurovision as yet but I hear on good authority that King Charles has a decent chance this year ;)
