    People slagging off the BBC & trying to undermine it.

    It has been massively attacked by the Tories, despite having one of the most right wing political correspondents in Kuenssberg, who has now been promoted further. Joe Lycett did a great job there. Bless him.

    They just want it to be Fox News.

    With Truss in power 'owt could happen. We've only just begun, as Karen Carpenter said.

    One thing that sticks in my throat is that the most critical fans of football teams tend to be armchair critics, but hey I have no proof of that it is just as I see it .

    Kindle ebooks where the book title has been converted into a sales pitch.

    eg, instead of
    "The Nameless Ones (Charlie Parker Book 19)"

    you get
    "The Nameless Ones: Private Investigator Charlie Parker hunts evil in the nineteenth book in the globally bestselling series (Charlie Parker Thriller)"

    I mean, really? That's the book title? All of that?

    or, instead of
    "Fahrenheit 451"

    you get
    "Fahrenheit 451: The gripping and inspiring classic of dystopian science fiction"

    Ridiculous.

    When someone posts a serious post on here, and then ten more people create numerous "comical" posts by changing one letter in the title.

    I only listen to audiobooks most of the time, all free on Youtube.

    You have Brian Cox, Stephen Fry, Carl Segan, Bill Bryson. Although a bit controversial the best is Fingerprints of the Gods by Graham Hancock. Whilst some of it is hugely questionable he raises a lot of good points about ancient civilisations. I'd say make your own mind up on that one.

    Is that even a "thing". The only Hessian I know was Squarepusher's drummer.

    People who don't take your first answer so ask the same thing repeatedly.
