I saw this on Nixxie's blog - I'm not sure if it is a meme, or just something she does, but I thought I would have go.
So it's FOAD to:
1. The idiot in the 4x4 who nearly ran Number Three Son and myself over the day before yesterday. Those little flashing lights are called indicators you pea brain, and you are supposed to use them to indicate the direction in which you are about to turn.
2. Mel Gibson. Personally, I dislike talentless, bandy legged morons who get paid a fortune for appearing in lousy films, but I don't feel the need to get drunk and rant about it.
3. Big Brother. It's dull, the participants are complete prats and it takes up space which could be devoted to something that is actually worth watching. Channel 4 used to be one of the better channels, but it is turning into chav/trev central.
4. The people who were sitting at the back of the bus on Monday. You were three of the biggest wassocks I have ever had the misfortune to share a bus journey with. Your grasp of the English language was atrocious, and trust me, no one wanted to hear the sordid details of your sex lives. You didn't look big or clever, just really, really common.
Ooh, I feel so much better now :-)
Edited for spelling - oops!

20 little notes:
Too right!
What is it with people not indicating? This is one of the most irritating things we have to encounter every day and yet it's so simple to do. Perhaps 4x4's and other grossly expensive cars have special indicators which require much more effort to put on.
LOL I think you may be right. The drivers of those cars certainly seem to find it hard to use their indicators, perhaps special lessons before they leave the showroom would help.
FOADThursdays are well known around the blogging community...

:)
and hmm..you got your letters backwards.....:)
Dyslexics of the world UNTIE!
Oops, so I did LOL
I haven't heard of it before - it's a great idea, lets you get rid of all those little annoyances.
yep, it's your once a week right to bitch. hehehehehehehe
I can't believe how long it took me to figure out what a FOAD was. Doh.
And the comeback to the non indicating drivers
"Take your car back to the garage, the indicators aren't working"
Thank you soooo much for letting us know about this. I did it on my blog 2 and am gonna try and get my readers to do it as well. I included BB ( i linked to u in that bit) as well. I added celebrity love island into the mix. I CAN'T wait for proper tv to come back. Pippa
Forgive me but I'm too pissed to comment.
yikes, scary on almost getting hit.
--RC of strangeculture.blogspot.com
I'd happily take a long piece of 2x2 to every f**king 4x4 not in military service!
I can go with items 2 and 3! I could do a FOAD Friday but I suppose I'd better stick with the old TFI Friday...Have a good one.
Nixxie - yes it is LOL I shall do it every week.
Matt - It took me a while too - at first I had it down as FAOD, which means nothing at all as I far as I know LOL
Beki - I'll have to try that one. One Monday just resorted to a withering look and a sarcastic shrug.
Pippa, Thanks for the link, I'll pop over and have a peep. I would like to see a return to real tv too - good programmes seem very few and far between at the moment.
Mike - that's ok. I like a man who keeps his drunkeness separate from his ranting LOL I do it that way myself.
RC - It was scary, the vehicle was huge, and she ony just missed us - eek!
Anttoeknee - great name btw :-) It does seem as though most people who own them have no need of such a powerful vehicle. There are a lot of farms around here so we always saw quite a few, and I can understand farmers using them, but over the last few years more and more people are buying them then only using them to take the kids to school or go to the supermarket.
Cotswoldgent - And you too :-) I have that TFI feeling myself, which is annoying because it's the school hols. However, there has been no rest, every morning I have had to get up early and race around grr!
Die, reality TV, die! (Sorry, I had to take your Big Brother comment further.)
Jack, I echo your sentiments LOL
ps: Like the new pic!
Thank you! The gf took that not long after we began “officially” courting.
Ah, that explains why it's a good one.
I'm guessing that is a new camera, but it has a look of one of those old ones. I like those, they had character.
The camera, a Voigtländer Bessamatic, is from 1959—and still in tip-top condition. I am one of those hoarders who keep everything pristine!
It is an old one! Wow, it is in good condition. I thought it must be a modern one designed in a retro style.
Whenever I see a camera like that, it conjures up an image of glamorous film stars and the old fashioned Jaguar cars (wistful sigh)
