Soda Jerk Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Frosties are Corn Flakes for people who can't face reality, as David Mitchell would say. He's right. Coco Pops though, are one of life's greatest gifts. Plus, when you were a kid, it meant you got to have chocolate for breakfast. Fuck the system.

keeno Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) I've been eating Frosties and Coco Pops for 30 years, I'm bored of them. THIRTY YEARS. BORED OF THEM. Also Coco Pops ain't all that. And it bothers me that they keep bringing out wank variations of them. Choc & Roll? Coco Rocks? Croc Prints? You can stick them all up your collective hoops. And there's something shifty about that monkey. Give me a nice bowl of Golden Grahams or some Shreddies any day.Cinnamon Grahams are the best cereal ever. They should be known only by that name. It's a shame they now sound like a dodgy romance novel for post-menopausal women. (Curiously Cinnamon) Krave are also ace for sugary, chocolatey goodness. As for chocolate bars available in Poland, they have a mint chip cadbury dairy milk which is amazing. Not available in the UK Will need to get one when I head back there in a couple of months. The other confusing thing is Magners/Bulmers. Long neck bulmers is the standard drink in Poland but over here Magners is the equivalent and Bulmers tastes nothing like it does over there.

Alkaline Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 I like Kellogs Start. They maintain their form and crispness a lot longer than other cereals and taste pretty good. I do like Curiously (George) Cinnamon though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time I got them was when I was a kid, when I was all about basketball and it had Allen Iverson on the box. Baller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Start is great. It stays hard too long though. You could break your teeth on that stuff. It's harder than teeth. They should use that as their slogan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) Start really is the king of cereals. It toes that line between wholesome healthiness and sugary sweetness. It's like a Special K for LADZ! That should be their tagline. Edit: you get 2 bowls max from a box though Edited May 21, 2013 by ca_gere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Crunchy cereal is the winner. I don't like it soggy. With most cereals, as soon as I pour the milk, I start wolfing it down, to make sure I've gobbled it all before it starts to turn to mulch. You can stake your time with Start. What a cereal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Rice Krispies, Weetabix and Wheetos are the only cereals on my 'good when soggy' list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Milner Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Pet hate - People who advertise things for sale and start off by saying "im not really looking to sell this, im just putting out feelers to see if anyone is interested" Which to me says, "ive seen something shinny i want to buy that i cannot afford, but if i find some numpty willing to pay over the odds for my thing, then im game".

Stroopy121 Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 That fucking awful "whisper" people talk in when they're in waiting rooms. YOU ARE BEING JUST AS FUCKING LOUD AS IF YOU WERE TALKING NORMALLY, SHITCUNT! The worst part of it is that all pops and hisses in their speech seems amplified, moist and clicky. Fucking horrible sounds. Especially when kids do it. If you're gonna have a conversation in a quiet room, JUST HAVE THE FUCKING CONVERSATION. Cunts. xx 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 Totes amazeballs was cool for a short time, but now totally uncool middle aged people use it, so it's not cool any more, unless you are using it ironically. Like bling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Easy Wishes Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 I have a massive pet hate over the use of capital letters in email signatures or sign-offs at work, or actual letters when people can be bothered sending them. Hi Person, This is my email. Kind Regards, Adam WRONG! The word 'regards' does not need a capital letter. Hi Person, This is my email. Many Thanks, Adam WRONG! The word 'thanks' does not need a capital letter. Dear Sir/Madam, This is my letter. Yours Sincerely, Adam WRONG! Firstly, the word 'sincerely' does not need a capital letter. Secondly, if you begin a letter with 'Sir/Madam', you sign a letter off with 'faithfully'. 'Sincerely' is only used when you are addressing the recipient by name. This is hugely boring, but it's the pet hates thread, innit? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 I too get annoyed when I receive a letter which says "Dear sir" but then concludes with "yours sincerely". It's basic stuff. I learned it at school. Did these clowns not go to school? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
