oo 1 Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 When are the intnl tv stations going to quit Terror Alert Level bollocks and all those horrible scrolling news things at the bottom of the screen - they really get on my nerves, I am sure they weren't constantly there before Sept 01 Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 That gets on my nerves too. I want to cover the bottom of the screen with tape or something. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 What channels are those then? (Have you tried contacting them asking them to stop? These outfits probably don't get any feedback about some of the silly shit they offer and don't realize people don't like it...) I'm getting tired of being told I have to register with a password to look at some 'award-winning' newspaper so that they can ask me if my job is 'Administration' or 'Other' and then show more advertisements 'of interest' to me. Are they ****ing nuts?! I usually tell them why I'm not bothering - try to straighten them out a bit.

Ocean11 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 We're having a bit of a patronize Ocean11 day today are we grungy-gonads? Indeed I have heard of these channels, but I don't have the equipment to watch them (nor would I if I did). Hence the question. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Sorry Ocean11 dude. No offence meant! I neglected to smiley it. Link to post Share on other sites
joshnii 2 Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Very annoying. At least BBC and CNN dont have flags waving constantly in the top left like one channel we all know and love. Link to post Share on other sites

mina2 6 Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Do any "normal people" wear pin-badges of their country flag on their clothes? That is frightening. Link to post Share on other sites
wendy-cake 0 Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 It is isnt it. I just cannot imagine ever even vaugely wanting to do something like that. Link to post Share on other sites
jared 0 Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 I dont think its a love of canada that makes them do it so much as a dislike of being thought of as an american. I guess an american flag with a cross through it would be just as good. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 Those poeple are really really silly, wearing frigging flag badges on their suits. Link to post Share on other sites
