Bridgerton. I've never watched it and never will, but there's no getting away from ads for it.

Just seen one of them, I never realised there were so many blacks in the higher echelons of English society back then. Wow.

[Carnage]

Yeah, very realistic. What pisses me off is that there seems to be no getting away from Nicola Coughlan's necktits.

[Thorn]

  yeah,..they're quite the problem alright

I get ravaged by midgets every time I go camping, big itchy oozy welts for like 2 weeks. Any antihistamine will work within the hour to stop any symptoms, even over the counter cheap no brand ones

[Honkers97]

I really suffer from insect bites and find that a dab of Bonjella mouth ulcer gel on the bite works really well to relieve itching.

[Anvil]

Ant bites are the ones that really annoy me.  Garden is full of the wee buggers.

[astfgyl]

The midges really really fucking love me the bastards

[open face surgery]

Ya, I get nailed by the fuckers as well. Midges that is, not midgets.

Huh that's interesting, I've never known midges to bite. Must have some extra aggressive fuckers out your way!

I think it's a blood type thing. They don't go near the wife and kids either but they just can't fuckin resist me

I get fuckin ate too.  Can't explain it.  Obviously the drink, fats, and sugar have me particularly tasty to them.

[Mooncat]

I've never known anyone to get bitten by them though, and I grew up playing in fields that were full of them. Certainly the mosquitos here find me tasty enough...

Edit: Actually upon some googling it appears there are non-biting midges too, so guess we just got lucky to be in an area without the savage ones!

[Circlepit]

I feel like I'm hiding in a foxhole in Vietnam between the midges and the mozzies.

The biggest gripe I have at the moment are these cunting moths. I've no idea where they are coming from. Small very airy faerie looking bastards.
The hoover comes out every evening and it's them or me.

Hotel fire alarms being set off from vapes. Fuck me who are you bothering vaping in the privacy of your own room. Had a recent incident were myself and a mate were smoking a weed vape then it set off a smoke alarm nothing came of it in the end but imagine having a smoke, it starts to hit you, fire alarm starts going off a few minutes later then you suddenly realise you were the cause and will have to deal with some bullshit very soon.

Weed vapes have a lot less vapour than the nicotine ones so it is not as if they are stronger and the smell disappears as quickly as normal vapes.
