Fucking pissed fucking off with shitty crap commentators who talk arse, don't fucking know the wanking laws, and provide no cuntwombling value added and can only just keep saying the players names. Which they often get fucking wrong.
Not even a glimpse of any analysis
Fucking grumpy
Just think. You have weeks of Miles Harrison's commentating on the Lions tour of Sth Africa to look forward to...

Messi balling his greedy little eyes out because he doesn't want to leave Barcelona, but he has to because they can't afford him. Even when he graciously said he'd accept half his 70+ million a season salary to stay, they still couldn't keep him as they're in massive debt.
Fucking play for free you ridiculously rich fluffybunny. You're leaving because you want a ridiculous amount more money, not because you were forced.

Footballers. There’s a bunch of sportspeople that make me grumpy. Rolling on the ground pretending to be injured is a fucken shocking example to young impressionable kids.

Thanks for reviving the thread @Bones, I can’t believe no one has been grumpy for about a month. Is everyone getting lots of action on the home front ?

Been tempted to post, but my Sony Android TV has been behaving itself these last few weeks.
Not since yesterday. The bloody thing keeps re-booting itself half-way thru a film which is coming a serious pain. Factory resets. judicious kicks and intensive swearing and the problem never quite goes away.
What's so hard about designing a TV which (a) is easy to operate and (b) works properly?

@victor-meldrew replace tb with WiFi router and I'm right there with you.
Our house is fucking tiny! It can't be that hard.

So we have had the Olympics going non-stop in our house the last fortnight. Great stuff. But every time I come into the lounge, one of my family is watching a sport in SD (channel 7 have all their sports channels available in SD or HD if you pay for the access).
Why the fuck does my family do this??? It's offensive to me that they don't care enough to press 3 buttons to actually see what the fuck is going on!!!
I pay for HD and these bastards don't care enough to even use it??? It's an outrage to me and the world of sports viewing.

I've just taken to punching people and inanimate objects when they piss me off. Turns out I am better at punching than typing.
It is more therapeutic as well.

My PS4 has similar issues, one day it just started ejecting the game disc. And if I don't turn it off at the wall sometimes it will just restart itself. Bloody Sony.

One think I can't grumble about is our internet or WiFi. Rock-solid, FTTP & 300Mbps.

The picture is great when it's working - it's just the (Android) software. Six button presses to adjust the brightness FFS

I'd just like to thank whoever still held a grudge about Frank and hotlips in Mash. Peak grumpy old man material.

Please transfer this to the Satisfied Old Man thread if you can find it. This has no business being here.

@victor-meldrew recently changed to virgin as they're the only ones who do fibre here and the BT broadband line would have been a great speed 20 years ago. In the first 4 weeks we had 4 multi day area outages, combined with a shit router that can't even cover the house, it seems the asus router we bought, even combined with a range extender still can't, yet the stock standard sky one could. Go figure.

"Easy Reseal" packets of ham which bloody well aren't.
