    I find it more annoying when I give stuff away for free on Facebook and people ask if I'd deliver. The * cheek.

    Pavement hoggers. You know the type, * that walk/run/whatever in a big group and don't go single file and expect a single person to jump into a hedge or traffic to accommodate their entitled arses. Does my box in.

    Just stop dead and pretend you are taking a call or something. Force them to move.

    I wouldn't say this is trivial but it is absolutely cuntish:

    We put netlix on about 3 months ago and over the last week I've been watching Vikings. Got to the third episode of series 3 and a message popped up saying "you must now upgrade to an ad free plan to unlock this content" I tried watching other things that are not locked and they now added adverts to their programmes. An unskippable 30 second ad for Peppa Pig. So on top of the monthly premium they now want more money.

    * them, within an hour of not being able to access Vikings I download it by torrent, all 4 series I've still to watch in good quality video. At least this way I can keep the programme forever. I've said to my mrs to cancel Netflix when the next payment is due. I can get the last episodes of Cobra Kai and the last episodes of Squid Game from the same place I got Vikings.

    As for their overall selection: it's utter pish. I watch a lot of YouTube shorts so often there I'll see a short clip of something that looks good. Look it up on Netflix and nope, they don't have it.

    In conclusion: now they've added adverts or expect more money to avoid ads Netflix is not worth having. PM me if you are interested in the torrent link I mentioned earlier.

    Netflix is pretty *, I only keep it for the kids shows which are ad free if you watch in a kids profile. Cobra Kai has been * for a while and the last season of Squid Games was passable but was basically a half season.

    We get our broadband through EE and it's in my mrs's name. We had originally got it for the Tyson v Jake Paul fight so her son and a couple of his mates could pop up to see it. After that I found I few things that were worth watching like the Gentleman (The series but not the film because of course they don't have the film) and another thing about a top heart surgeon who is running a secret clinc in a disused part of the London underground and that turned out to be pretty good, but nothing we couldn't get by torrent.

    We both quite enjoy Young Sheldon and there's an entire season of that missing from Netflix. They are pretty crap now and we deffo won't be renewing now since they've decided to be greedy scumbags and hiding things behind ad paywalls and putting ads on during their programmes. I still have a DVD burner so I can at least add my downloads to my collection. Young ones today pay for everything yet own nothing. Games, film and TV and even music all held on servers and if the server gets shut down they lose everything.
