FACEBOOK.

Several times this week I have experienced that communicating to people is a pointless exercise.

You message someone, can see they have read it and there is no reply... then you see them online. I am not expecting an essay - just a response.

Its no one on here - you are all geeks and know how it works . Just v frustrating.

On the subject of Facebook, you can add the iOS app to that. Every update makes it slower and more prone to crashing and hanging. The Android app works fine on my work phone. Why the other is so bad I cannot fathom.

It's for the comedy value, Chris.

People who have hoods on their coats, and don't wear them when it's raining. I know it's up to then, but it still makes me grrrr!

Me again!

The bbc tennis score graphic. Something about the way it all rolls back really annoys me! No idea why!

Wimbledon itself. Nobody gives a flying stuff about tennis until Wimbledon week and then suddenly everybody is a tennis fanatic and it's all everybody talks about "did you see murray last night??" "OMFG Nadal has been knocked out!!" "Williams is out!"

So what? You didn't give a stuff when they were playing last month in France or Australia or wherever...

I just don't get Wimbledon week. If you don;t really care about tennis for 51 weeks of the year, why feel the need to become obsessed for 1 week???

PS. this isn't aimed at people who genuinely enjoy tennis, just the wimbledon band wagon crew who seem to pop up this time every year.

"Company" vans, signwritten with nice fonts and logos with a web based email.

Case in point, the house opposite us has a lovely 58 plate panel van all nicely decorated for "Banbury Generic Works" (or whatever) contact (01295) 222222 or e-mail woz74@hotmail.com

1. You couldn't even get banburygenericworks(orwhatever)@hotmail.com
2. Get your own host, it's not expensive, slacktard.

It's one of my major hates at work. I can't stand printing stuff with www.imaplumber.co.uk and then imaplumber@hotmail.co.uk.
FFS, you've got your own domain, bloody use it properly for your email.
