Any view that rejects democracy or the democratically expressed will of the people.

I have to deal with my in laws through gritted teeth. The stereo typical Brexit voter

6. The mother in law has never paid a penny in personal tax in her life- the odd cash in hand cleaning jobs but yet is happy to milk the NHS and rant about emigrants.
7. Will not leave the country (as in England)
8. Pasta and garlic bread is foreign muck- honestly.
9. Passing judgement on our high mortgage even though they were handed a Council house in 1970s so our generation is screwed by house builders- they havent got a fcking clue
10. They believe any old rubbish they read in the Daily Mail.

The are so fcuking small and vanilla it's untrue. Other than that they are grand.

I just console myself knowing that their ongoing health problems has a silver lining and my wife just has just one other sibling so their inheritance will go a long way to paying off our mortgage. Bonus.

What's wrong with you?

I am only assuming here but since you mentioned Brexit that you are referring to the UK.
You call out these people for being white.
In the UK? A majority white country?
Why do you have white guilt?
And the you use the term vanilla, a stupid American import.
And ironically refering to a plant not from the UK, some of the foreign muck term you used to put your in-laws down.
If you didn't mention the term in-laws and wife I would have put you down for someone in their teens, at least then you would have an excuse for your stupidity.
But you did and from that I get you are married and would have to put your age at least at 27. I would expect a bit better for your argument.
Instead we got a load of slurs and insults based on their age and race both things no one can change.
I am not saying you are wrong but you just attacked some people using racism and ageism while trying to signal how virtuous and open minded you are.

Not a practice or belief but makes me lose respect all the same - People who write the word 'period' at the end of a sentence or before a full stop. Why do they do this?
Its mostly an American thing but I see it all the time in comment sections. I immediately think the poster is an idiot.

When someone insists that the fast lane on a motorway is called the 'overtaking lane', I lose whatever respect I might have had for them.

They don't know what they're missing.

Life in the overtaking lane just doesn't have the same ring as life in the fast lane.

Dick phelan

People who say their just being honest or being "real" when actually their just being a rude co ck.

Lads that go on an on about their sex life women they pulled etc. or who can't help comment on every girl they see in the pub. Very immature. You had sex great for you, so have most adults no need to go on and on about it. Similar people who mention how drunk they got last night and act like it makes them a legend especially if their out of college, grow up FFS.

Women who buy garbage magazines like "OK". If that's what you choose to read chances are we aren't having many meaningful conversations.

Joke police, seriously when did some people become such joyless fcukwits. Just accept that some jokes might talk about dark topics it doesn't mean the person making the joke actually holds those beliefs.

Anyone who during a debate or discussion starts a sentence with "As a (insert supposed oppressed people). If you need to play any kind of victim card then your point is probably not a good one.

People who use Snapchat to document every little detail of their lives. It’s lost on me

its more Instagram nowadays I find that happens,, like I've no problem people putting pics of nights out on it but when its 500 pics/stories on a night out its so irritating for example this one im mates with keeps doing ten story updates if she's wishing a friend a happy birthday, or when she's like going to the chipper or hairdresser or on nights out and documenting every bleeding little thing she does and gives a summary/synopsis of what happened that night/meal/hairdresser trip..im wondering does she (and others too-not picking on her but a lot of females I know keep insisting on documenting every part of the experience) get off the phone when shes on a night out...

It would be a two factor thing for me : the sense of it being a mutilation and spoiling of the natural body, and, the association of it with people of low intelligence, education, and culture. The two add to a very off putting combination. There are plenty of places where one can display art (not that I would necessarily elevating tattoos to that level), but no need to ruin your skin to do so. Sailors, working class thugs, merchants of violence of all orders, seem to be the type that go for it.

Someone who when you go out for a drink with them always let's you buy the first round and the last one. I had 2 friends who would do this to me every single time, or should I say ex friends.

For some reason both of these ppl (blokes) carried huge wallets with them. I don't know if this says something about them but I always felt it did somehow related to this penny pinching issue.

My ex left me for a guy she met on World of Warcraft last year.:rolleyes:

Clearing out her stuff I found all these Tarot card readings diaries. Stuff like:

26 July
Embrace new relationships. Avoid salads. Chocolate should taste sweeter this week.

If Scarlet Johansen matches with me on tinder then told me she was into tarot reading, she'd be shown the door.

Tattoos especially women with tattoos.

Now I will gladly shag a women with tattoos as I am an equal opportunity shagger and to be honest I would have a lot more barren times if I avoided women with tattoos but I ain't walking down the aisle with you.

Sorry I don't care how artful and/or tasteful you think they are.

Tramp stamps all day long.

ps Not too gone on men with tattoos either but I am not likely to be in a relationship with a man anytime soon.

People who play world of warcraft should be on the list too.

Now to be fair I've known some people who play the game and have a life but the game is incredibly demanding on your time and it's designed to be. That's why I've also known many people who play it who have no life except for the game.

I 'call out these people' (to use another 'stupid' American import) because they are stereotypical Brexit voters. I am intolerant because they are intellectually lazy.

Your sentence that my refering to 'vanilla' as ironic is just plain bizarre.

Why 27 as opposed to 26 or 28 or 57? Random generalisation as is my stereotyping.

If you are going to get indignant about posts on this particular thread you are in for a lot of amusement and disappointment.
