The way-beyond-grumpy guide to the sheer bloody irritation of everyday life
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Mitchell Symons was born in 1957 in London and educated at Mill Hill School and the LSE, where he studied. Since leaving BBC TV, where he was a researcher and then a director, he has worked as a writer, broadcaster and journalist. He was a principal writer of early editions of the board game Trivial Pursuit and has devised many television formats. Currently he writes a weekly column for the Sunday Express.
Modern life is full of annoyances, some large and some small. Indeed it sometimes seems as if life conspires to become more and more annoying every day, just to piss us off. Pop-up windows on the internet selling you software you don't want. Having to pay £3.20 for a small bottle of water from a hotel minibar. Brian Sewell's voice -please, is there no end to this pain?!
Mitchell Symons has decided that enough is enough. He's mad as hell, and he's not going to take this any more ...
More annoying things:
People who use finger signs to denote quotation marks
'Talking' birthday cards that never shut up
Train journeys that are more expensive than flights to the same destination
Jade Goody
Pubs that advertise things happening TONITE
Books on punctuation and grammar.
All the irritations of the modern world are here. Hilarious, entertaining and downright therapeutic, Don't Get Me Started is essential reading for anyone out there who likes a good rant. If you thought the grumpy old men were angry, it's time to think again!
