A really small issue that I do not like. 15:59 - Oct 9 with 3467 viewsMattinLondon

At this time of year when a lot of the shops and supermarkets and internet sites are all geared towards Christmas. It really bothers me when Father Christmas is referred to as Santa Claus.

Father Christmas just sounds much more jolly and welcoming. And I’ve never really liked the name Santa Claus and it bothers me.

Are there anymore small things or issues that bothers anyone? And by small, I mean quite insignificant that doesn’t bother anyone?

I’ve clearly been labouring under the misapprehension that shoe horns are designed solely to protect the back of one’s shoe from being repeatedly crushed by one’s heel during forcible ingress of foot into said footwear.

Surely, if it’s a mobility/flexibility issue, you’re virtually there when you use it anyway? **

Something I've been pondering recently, is people who have to use shoe horns. How do they put their socks on?

That just looks like some lazy golfing-type scratching the sole of his foot with a five iron…

Reckon I’ve had a few ‘sock donners’ after chucking out time, over the years.

Have one & it's well nigh useless - the tapes that you pull need to be solid.

A sort of (works sometimes, others not) solution that I've created is to roll the outer edge of the socks round the edge of a lightweight clog, push the inside of the sock in with your fist, then put the clog on floor & insert foot.

“Well thigh useless”. I think they’re for socks, not suspenders!

Fully behind you.

It's Father Christmas not Santa. We're not in America are we.

The creeping Americanisation of everything is not good.


Creeping? We are already all in.

Another thing that really annoys is people referring to their holiday days from work as annual leave.
