Re:

The new, Argos adverts. Harmogenised Americana :evil:

The new Christmas Curry's PC world advert, (We will help you get Christmas right this year), Thus insinuating that you have got Christmas wrong all these years, and that spending a huge amount of money will make things right. :twisted:

Smart phone adverts, selling the same things that all the phones do but saying ours is better. :evil:

Car drivers on mobiles, speeding, parking on pavements, revving loudly, and just being generally pig ignorant. :twisted:

Pragmatism and the "make-do" culture. Just doing a "good-enough" job, rather than a decent one.

Mostly people bought into the expedience and economy of no longer doing something very decently, so long as it was good enough. I saw it at the tail-end of their careers for a couple of relatives who prided themselves on being good at what they did for a living, and became increasingly frustrated and disillusioned as that was being discouraged in favour of just doing something that was just about OK.

What people didn't get, in their myopia, grounded in the rhetoric of voodoo economics, was the detrimental impact that would have, and it became, pretty much, a manifesto for the feckless and mediocre.

Re:

50K cars are penis extensions IMHO.

Me? I drive a 12 year old Golf 1.4. Never had any complaints from the fairer sex :facepalm:

See what you've started here HF? Not so much a can of worms, more like a barrel :facepalm:

Re:

If I had the money there are a number of cars I would happily pay £50k on... although I do have a very small penis.

Re:

Ed Miliband, "what I say to you is this". Utter cretin.

Ed Miliband's hair. There's too much of it. Same barber as Tim Henman. Remember the reaction to Roy Keane shaving his nut? If Miliband did the same would people take him seriously? Probably not but it would make me laugh at the twat.

"Out of", as in "band X out of Scottsdale". The word is from. Mainly US but hearing it here now.

"An historic day/event/occasion". Two things, it's 'a' historic, and every day is literally historic, which is usually only slightly less 'historic' than the event they are babbling about.

'Equality'. What's that all about? We aren't born equal, we don't die equal. Why the constant droning on about making us more equal in the interim? It's never going to happen, get over it ffs.

Tax. Currently and specifically the proposed 'mansion tax'. I won't be affected but it'll raise next to nothing, it won't make any real difference to the 'rich' and the asset rich/cash poor will get clobbered through no fault of their own. Tokenism at its worst.

Global warming/climate change/renewables/fracking. Who cares. If there's money under our feet get it out. UK plc makes £billions and a few people get flaming taps. That's a good trade off.
