The Top 100 things that drive "us" mad

Gluben · Mon 31 Jul, 2006 21.09

I use "us" like that because not everyone is going to think the same. If anyone has seen the list, is there anything they would like to add?

Unfortunately, for me, I find that everything and anything, including myself, in one way or another, drives me mad. But then you can ignore that, otherwise this would be a pretty short thread, obviously!

The quite smug grin, but then again my face is rated 18 for fear of frightening kids to death, so I can't talk!

It was taken by my annoying little cousin and she forced me to use it. It's better than many other photos of me, which doesn't say much! I do feel very hideous, but then again it's down to individual opinion, I suppose.
