There is a British TV program that I can get on cable called "grumpy old men" it has middle aged celebs moaning about todays world. When I watch I tend to find myself nodding in agreement with everything they say. Most of the above is covered. When my mobile phone contract runs out I am not getting a new one. I hate the things.

S'funny I was just thinkin' the same thing about grumpy old men.

I have a pre-paid deal with my mobile (over ten years now), which generally works okay as I use it mostly for incoming calls.
Just yesterday I received a text from my provider (first of it's kind), saying if I don't renew my credit within one (1) day I will lose whatever credit I have left, as the time period is up ..

My battery was flat before I got the text , so I'm guessing I have no credit left...

...... MARRIAGE !

Think about it. In a world full of beautiful women, someone comes up with the brilliant idea that you should choose only ONE. Then shortly after the deed is done, suddenly you wake up in horror one morning to discover that your beautiful bride has somehow been transformed into ..... egad.... a wife !

Wife then proceeds to empty your wallet on all sorts of things she wants, while complaining that you spend too much money on beer and pizza. She's driving the new BMW you got her, but complains that she wanted a Bentley. Meanwhile every morning you pray and burn candles to get your old Ford to start. Every closet in the house is full of her clothes and shoes, while you're reduced to two pairs of jeans and a handful of teeshirts.

She will constantly remind you about the handsome, rich stud she passed up to marry you. But if you make the mistake of gazing at another woman you might as well sign your own death warrant. And if the whole marriage crashes and burns your next residence will be a tent underneath the local motorway while your wife gets the house, your car, and everything else you owned BEFORE you even met her. And the local marshall will still stop by the tent every week to collect alimony and child support payments from you, even though you haven't a penny to your name and have court papers proving you are NOT the biological father.

Here in the US, they say Lincoln freed the slaves. I'm not entirely sure of that ......

These days when I meet a man for the first time I always ask "Are you happy.... or married ?"

I think I can safely say this is the Worst invention EVER.
Minimizer bras.
The inventor should be stood before a wall with a rifle squad at the ready.

It is designed to make the bust appear SMALLER!
So if a girl is a DD cup, she would appear to be a C cup.
Keeping a God-given creation hidden is a crime against man and nature...

I don't think this is worst invention but it is getting out of hand....and that is the shaving razor. When I first started shaving I was using a disposable BIC single blade razor. And from what I can recall that gave me as close a shave as one of these new 5 bladed things.
Mind you the first time I used that single bladed razor I just about peeled the skin off my face with it. I do prefer the twin blades though. I think two blades is enough to get the job done satisfactory.

BIKE SHORTS!

Invented for use by sexy girls.... but only ever worn by obese women to stop their thighs chaffing and gay men on bikes that want to expose their meat and veg in public without being arrested...again!

Not bitter are we, by some chance?

You do happen to be spot on though.
They say that women are the weaker sex, try pulling the duvet back at three o clock in in the morning...
