    It´s naff, cheap, inconsiderate, lacking in style or manners, and no way to treat a guest. It gives me the impression that a company is struggling financially and pays no attention to detail.

    It´s a good way to ensure I shall take my money elsewhere.
    Especially when they look around and see the staff drinking out of over-sized "I hate Mondays" Garfield mugs.
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

      Who has time? Who has time? But then if we do not ever take time, how can we ever have time?

              Comedy retrospectives on TV that consist of the same old clips of old shows, surrounded by celebrities explaining that they are funny.

                "Celebrities" famous for nothing more than being a "Celebrity", e.g. Paris Hilton, Peaches Geldof etc.

                  Also "rudest TV out-takes" that don't consist of actresses removing their kit, just some twit swearing because he fluffed his lines.

                    Check out the Krankies' autobiography. It's truly astounding. It's Boogie Nights meets Nil By Mouth.

                    Ian: "She said to me, 'I know you've been with Angie. You've got glitter on your balls...'"

                    Janette: "And he said to me, 'I know you've been with Rocky. You smell of leopard's piss.'"
