I have new least favourite thing. When people put on a stupid accent to say foreign words or place names. You can say Notre Dame without making yourself sound like a pretentious tit.
It's acceptable if you're in full flow speaking a different language, but when it's just one word or phrase, it's annoying as fuck.

It's only annoying when they say it wrong.

Well yeah. I mean when someone over-pronounces something for no real reason.

I probably do it with German words because I speak it and don't like saying them wrong.

There is some commentator who always says Cazorla like he's having a stroke and although he's probably trying to pronounce it the proper way it just sounds ridiculous!!

That'd be the guy on MOTD, lisping while pronouncing the Z in his name.

It's Vansonn actually. Martin Tyler's particularly bad for doing that.

Because 99.99% of the time they can't do it and it sounds annoying, especially at 3am.

Oh and they try do it every time the player touches the ball, as if their showing off.

It's Burn's Night in Scotland today and traditionally you're meant to have a Burn's Supper or something. I genuinely couldn't give a shit about this. However, I'm going to take on this motherfucker of a burger.

That looks like someone took a shit on some tomatoes and then tried to spruce it up.

I managed to eat about 2/3rds of it, which according to the guy is the best anyone's done so far. Far too much to consume though, the thing was about as big as my head. Pretty damn tasty though.

Just got back from lunch with a girl I've not seen in about 6 or 7 years. Have to say I thought it was going to be very awkward but it was exactly like old times, was so easy to talk and just hang out, good start to the weekend!!
