This thread is probably doomed to die in the archives heaven. Sigh.
I am really annoyed.
Why do they call Mars bars "fun-sized" when there's nothing fun about the size of them at all?
Why do some drivers not bother learning how to indicate?
What is the difference between "aqua" and "teal" blue?
Why do Word documents underline words when there's nothing wrong with them at all?
Why do most shops STILL insist on putting those little sticky price-tags on goods that are impossible to remove properly?
Why do politicians claim that *terrorism* has FORCED them to remove all our hard-won civil rights for "our own good"?
How long IS a piece of string?
