    The destruction of the Bill of Rights by W., Obama and the American people; everyone who has never heard or agreed with Franklin's quote: "Those who would sacrifice liberty for safety deserve neither."
    Incompletely enclosed toilets
    People who cause trouble for others due to a lack of consideration, rather than sheer malice.
    People who cause trouble for others due to sheer malice
    Americans in general
    Foreigners who criticize Americans in general
    The endless bandwagon of tapping up/rumor mongering in the football world, especially in England.
    Falling standards in society and especially in schools
    Old bores who drone on about falling standards
    People who think fame is worth having (money's a whole different story)

    How did i miss this before. I hate loads of stuff. Ones that spring to mind:

    People that stop at the top/bottom of escalators
    People that block pavements or any limited-space throughway unnecessarily

    Cyclists, especially the ones who bomb up the pavement behind you, tut when they pass you by a few inches going five times the speed you're walking at...and then get arsey because I kick their bike from under them as a matter of principle.

    Maria Miller, the Culture Secretary (silly job title, silly woman) who wrote to the BBC instructing them to take action against commentator John Inverdale, who said that Wimbledon winner Marion Bartoli was "no looker". Firstly, what the f*** has it got to do with government? Secondly, you've obviously not been watching - she is no looker.

    We've got a Health Secretary that believes in homeopathy. Where you expecting sense from this government?

    FFS when will people get off Murray's back? He said one... just one tongue in cheek comment years ago.... The "not supporting England" comment was taken totally out of context and was some banter between him and Tim Henman years ago when he was a bloody teenager. How many teenagers have you met who've said stupid, nonsensical comments that they didn't mean? I can think of several footballers who have made far worse comments yet they score a goal the next week and all is forgotten. Get over it!

    As for not representing Britain in the Davis Cup; he has done several times and has saved our sorry arses numerous times as the other LTA funded spoilt brats who claim to be tennis professionals can't be arsed to put in the time on the court, work at the gym or watch what they eat are simply hopeless at tennis and have no fight. Why should he bare the burden of trying to get us back into the world group if the rest just expect him to do all the leg work? He has every right to choose whether or not to play in an 11 month season that is very long, hard work and has very few breaks. It's about time other players stepped up and justified the free funding the LTA sends them to continually fail to even break into the top 300 and get out from the Futures tour.

    Murray gets an awful lot of undeserved flak in my opinion, simply for being pretty boring. I mean that in the best possible way - he seems to be a normal guy who happens to be very, very good at tennis but also enjoys walking the dogs and living as quiet a life as he possibly can, given his circumstances. I'd rather see the success stories of our world be like him than, say, any of of the 'celebrities', sporting or otherwise who worm their way into the press every week simply because they want to be famous. People seem to expect him to be loud and controversial simply because he is a household name and for me its refreshingly nice to see a top sportsman not fit that stereotype.

    Aside from Tottenham's transfer activity?

    People in the supermarket who stop in the middle of the aisle
    People in the supermarket who park their trolley in front of things then wander off to look for something else.
    People who walk slowly in the street
    People who get in my way
    People.

    <applause> Couldn't agree more. The guy is actually really easy going and not as boring as everyone thinks. I met him at Queens Club a few years back and is a good bloke. He's very guarded since the press mis-quote him all the time. He gets his head down, works ****ing hard to get as fit as possible and has just ended 77 years of waiting for a Wimbledon champ beating Nolé in straight sets, is reigning US Open and Olympic Champion. What more do people want from him?

    - Gooners.

    - Tax.

    - Traffic Wardens.

    - Cannabis still being illegal over here.

    - Waking up and realising I've run out of coco pops.

    - Loud people that deliberately speak loud to come across like they're some top geeza of a firm when in reality they probably get beat by their missus.

    - Ring stings after a vindaloo.

    - Getting texts from my ex at 02:00 chatting absolute bollocks because she's pissed out her tree.

    - Andy Townsend commentating. No wait, I just hate Andy Townsend full stop.

    - People that beg for retweets/ follow backs on Twitter.

    - Having to work.

    - Spurs conceding 90th minute equalisors/ winners.

    - Seeing those with countless amounts of money act spoilt while millions suffer with poverty.

    - People that call Kim Kardashian a role model.

    - TOWIE and those who watch it.

    - Corrupt governments... (So basically all of them).

    - Boys that put on fake tan, pluck their eye brows, wear tight jeans or chinos. Disgrace to men.

    - Sports journalists and ITKs. I've now concluded ALL are degenerate mugs and should be fed to lions.

    - Charlie Adam.

    - Jack Wilshere.

    - Sol Campbell with the fire of a thousand suns.

    - Seeing Bale getting fouled on the pitch and thinking we're ****ed.

    - Justin Bieber.

    - John Terry.

    - When McDonalds stop doing Big Tasty's.

    - Cold calls.

    - Endless texts from Paddy Power and William Hill.

    - Losing my 3G signal on my iPhone.

    - Petty sentences given to murderers, rapists and *****s.



    I hate a lot of things...

    Sounds like Pete Sampras. The announcers never talked about anything about Sampras except how dull he was, and his "bad body language." "Bad body language" on the way to winning seven Wimbledons.

    Stupid twats. Hows about we rate the clowns at the circus for their entertainment value and tennis players for how they do with that little yellow ball?

    Oh, and I really hate anyone who uses the phrase "It's all good."

    No, it's not all good. Some of it's good, some of it's bad, and some of it's indifferent.

    And everyone who uses the phrase, "Everything happens for a reason."

    Yes it does. Usually a piss poor one.

    I'm with you on most of these...except I like work now that I'm middle aged, when I hated it with a passion when I was your age. Something to do with not being able to drink every night. With Bale it's more like: why am I a fan of the best player in the one league in human history that singles out its biggest star...for unpreferential treatment. Wilt Chamberlain never fouled out of a professional basketball game. Say of Americans what you will, but we know which side our bread is buttered on. Now I often have my culinary sights aimed higher than a Big n' Tasty. But when stuck in the wilderness, as I often was in archaeology days, it, along with the Burger King Whopper, was about the one satisfying sandwich in fast food land. And I was also recently distressed to find that not only had the Golden Tits stopped selling it, it also had no suitable alternative. At ****ing all.

    So I guess we Americans don't know which side our bread is buttered on. ****wads.

    I hate Americans. Did I mention that?

    There are few pleasures in life for the homeless and the very poor, I don't think being able to buy a pack of ***s means they don't need our help.

    Yeah but it's quicker to say than two thousand and thirteen <laugh>

    I look forward to the chat on not 606 in the year 2437 when people are saying 'two thousand four hundred and thirty seven' or 'twenty four thirty seven' :p
