Exactly. Is she nitpicking, or is there something about the method that is objectively better and worth learning? If the former then she needs to learn to let go a bit and let people do things they way they want to do them. And tbh sometimes you have to learn to let it go anyway, as is the case with my wife's objectively worse dishwasher-stacking technique.

It's fine as long as you're not a total wrong'un who leaves knives pointing up. Or the absolute dirt worst are people who don't put cups and glasses in upside down. Although one of my ex's mum would fully wash everything then put it in the dishwasher. What's the fucking point of that? 

Normally the arsehole is the one consuming.

People who don't read the whole thread before posting and post something someone already has.

People who run a joke into the fucking ground.Normally people quoting Peter Kaye or The Office.

So what minor things piss you off?

I'll start off with something that set today up for a bad start. I popped into Tesco to grab a meal and a pack of fags this morning. I got back into my work van and got to site only to find the pack of fags weren't in my pocket. They must have fallen out of my pocket in the 20 metres from the shop to the van.

WTF is Vegan Fried Chicken? Is the chicken vegan, or is the fying vegan, but with a real bit of chicken?

It will most likely be Seitan, which is battered in a similar manner to fried chicken.

Does this toy come with trolley throwing action? I dread to think what the thing says, most probably something racist and idiotic.

I was watching the lightning out of my B&B window last night. Unfortunately my crappy phone camera couldn't capture the silhouette of the lightning against the helter skelter on Mumbles pier.

The BA Baracus Ice Lolly was my go to as a kid, either that or a Big Feast. I am disappointed that they got rid of the Big Feast and normal Feasts seem to have gotten smaller over the years. I seem to be in the minority that likes mint choc chip icecream. So a mint Feast or Cornetto is what I will get now.

I got the results back from the test I had on Monday. I have antibodies, which means I was asymptomatic.I have pretty much been a complete shut-in apart from working by myself.

I have one hell of a farmer's tan. Which is made worse with how white my legs are when I wear shorts.

What has happened to the Chippy thread. 

Curry sauce is an integral part of a chippy. It's not like it has gone back to kebab chat.

I am glad that I no longer work in security. The July 4th weekend is going to be a fucking nightmare for fights kicking off outside pubs, because they haven't been out for a drink for 3 months. Never mind the amount of abuse people are going to get because they will have to tell people that the pubs are full and they can't enter.

My main problem with a lot of imperial stouts is that the main flavour tends to be the alcohol, which cuts through everything. Saying that I am still tempted by the normal staypuft stout from them.

Its almost as if the government relaxed the rules way too early in attempt to make it out like they were actually being competent.

I used to be able to tell the yanks that their beer was disgusting when they'd produce shite like this. Fucking hell.

Some of those sorts of beers are really nice as a novelty thing, but definitely not something to actually regularly drink. Tiny Rebel's Pump up The Jam raspberry doughnut beer is one of the few that I could actually drink a lot of. I remember having Rogue Brewery's maple bacon doughnut beer which was grim stuff.

This past Sunday was go skate day, it was the first time in over a month I went out. I smashed the shit out of my shin. Now it looks like Mark Hominick's head after he faced Jose Aldo and I snapped the nose off my deck.I am struggling to find an 8 inch deck for under 60 quid online that isn't completely hideous.

@Monkee Those are great. If you do put them up on RedBubble as prints pop it in here. I know someone who would love them.

I might have to try Quorn nuggets.  We've tried making bolognese and lasagna with Quorn mince and it's a miserable experience.  Better to just use mushrooms, which actually have some fucking flavour.

That's part of the reason I will use cut up courgettes and aubergine when doing a veggie spag bol. The main thing is once the aubergine is cubed to liberally salt and to fry it in a bit more oil than you would think since it will absorb a lot of it.

I'll have courgette coming out the wazoo.

Normally it's courgettes going in the wazoo. At least that's what I have seen on Xhamster.

I'm not vegetarian by any means, but I will still try vegetarian options if it's on offer. I will happily cook vegetarian meals for my veggie friends when we used to be able to meet up. For me though it tends to either be a lack of flavour or a weird texture to a lot of meat substitutes and I do tend to avoid them when cooking vegetarian meals. I will use aubergine and courgette in a bolognese for example. Especially since one of my friends has a soy allergy that takes a lot of meat substitutes off the table.

Not mine, but  think I have found the ugliest trainers ever.

The cast of Tiger King would think would think they've gone overboard with the animal print on these. Never mind the horrible shape of them to begin with.

I absolutely love those Richmond sausages. First time I had them I got my Wife to dig out the wrapper because I couldn't believe they weren't normal meat Richmond's.

Regular Richmond's sausages aren't the best to begin with the amount of rusk added to them.

I am just reminded of one of those woolly dresses put on a doll to hide big roll like my nan used to have.
