Shouting at the telly

I never shout at the television, perhaps I should. At least it wouldn't answer back.

I do it all the time, but I live alone so there is nobody to hear, especially shouting out the answers to quizzes. I watch Richard Osman's House of Games and always have the answers before the contestants. I think there must be a delay on their buzzers.

F1 when Verstappen is leading & whining about some thing!

I am with you kittylester - I'm on a bit of a mission with both TV and radio.

Today it was an advert where the actor put the emphasis quote obviously in the wrong place!
My husband agreed - but he just laughed!

Incompetence is very irritating.

The other thing that gets me shouting is when a news item repeats something that has already been proved wrong. Grrr!

Football. I am not a swearer, by nature, but I come out with a few choice expletives watching my beloved footy.

This morning an exhibitor at Chelsea was talking about people leaving 'heart rendering' messages on her stand which was to do with funeral flowers.

I shouted so loudly that DH came to see if I was OK.

What makes you shout at the telly.

TRUMP!

Celieanne86 your comment really made me think. I get so fed up with my husband always shouting at the tv, and then I shout at him. I must develop more patience. xx

Saying or writing "draws" instead of drawers. And pronouncing drawing as "drawring".

I shout 'Absolute Rubbish!' whenever Owen Jones comes on the TV and spouts his usual tosh. It's either that or throw something at the screen! But I am trying to train myself to just change the channel when he comes on, as it's better for my blood pressure and possibly for the TV screen too!

Sometimes I forget for a nano second that my OH isn’t here now and I regularly shout at the telly and turn towards his chair in a huff to argue about what Ive just seen.
Quizzes are the main thing that wind me up, don’t people learn anything at school any more, and if I hear the comment an educated guess again I had better not have a brick handy to throw.
Watching cricket and arguing with OUT decisions especially LBW is the other main irritant, I even stop and re run the decision again and again, and don’t start me on adverts I could go on all day

Usually during music quiz shows, or if something is so ridiculous, I can’t contain myself

My DH shouts at the weather forecasters. He says none of them know what they are talking about. I shout at him because that gets on my nerves!!😤

That one took me a minute; I thought you were being cruel. I wouldn't have picked that up.

DH yells at the tv during sports, but I don't think I have ever yelled at the TV.

No, I didn't mean to type heart rending because what made me shout at the telly was the woman saying 'heart rendering' .

😂Did she mean about funeral flowers pacifically 🤔😖

I regularly shout at the telly, particularly if it's a quiz show and some contestant is being stupid. Or a film where I know what's going to happen next

Me too!

My husband shouts at the football, the rugby, snooker 🙄🙄 zzzzzzz

DP tells me to pipe down.

I constantly shout at Jeremy Vine and his guests on channel 5 in the morning, he comes out with with some stupid comments. My DH also shouts at him.😂

Gotcha ! Sorry.
FYI , in my defence I have elsewhere said that I don't think there is any such thing as a "stupid" question.🤣🤣🤣.
I don't think any of us would last long if our hearts were
" rendered".
I shout atthe OH.
I shout because of the telly or the radio.
Most of the "woke" stuff provokes an " oh for * sake from me.

Skedule instead of schedule

I don’t do the shouting kittylester because MrB shouts enough for both of us [grin*

Good Evening , Kittylester,

No offence but did you mean to type "heart-rending" ?
If not, what is a heart-rendering message , when its at home ?
Odd that people would leave personal messages at a commercial flower -seller's stand.
Were they ordering flowers for funerals ?
If not, they all sound barmy to me.
