  • I read on reddit last week some guy (surfer) in Miami moaning about endless selfies. People getting out of their cars, putting down towels, laying down, taking the selfies, and going. All sub 5 mins on the beach. What have we become?

    I saw a post on FB the other day where someone used a selfie stick in between the couch cushions and used it as a stand to watch tv on their phones and everyone thought it was fantastic...why would you watch tv on your tiny little phone if you are on your couch in your living room??? surely you would have at least one other electronic device with a larger screen in that atmosphere??

    Tickets to anything I wouldn't or couldn't go to,
    Most books, I read but would rather choose my authors.
    Most cds/dvds same as above.
    Most blog comps, I find all the 'although I was sent ths for free I honestly do think its amazing' comments about everything grating.
    Fishing / horse / hobby stuff should go to someone that would use it.

    But my big one is signed/one off/ltd items of any kind, so often I've seen a cd/book signed or first print of something I adore and would love forever won by someone who chucks it on Ebay without a care I couldn't do the same to someone else!

    Another one I just remembered which I won't enter is AO. The prizes are good but I can't stand the way they run, with the live video announcement and making you commit to doing a video review. I'd like a new telly but I'm not that desperate, thanks!!!

    they usually want access to your photos too, on the app permissions.. really annoys me.

    Totally with you on this, i just don't enter for the fact they make you do a video review of the product you win.
