‘Mayonnaise. Its the one thing I have to buy what is non supermarket-brand (off the top of my head right now). Winiary Majonez or nothing.’

‘Pasta and rice. Good quality pasta is so much better than ‘Supermarket Essentials’ pasta. And don’t give me jasmine rice with a curry or basmati rice with a Thai red curry. Off to the gulag with you!’

‘People who spit in public. I just find it so disgusting to watch someone spit on the street.

‘It happens during sports matches all the time on TV, which I revolting but sort of understandable, and I think that some people think it gives them license to do it whenever they feel like it. There is no excuse, it is foul.’

‘Maybe I’m just getting old and impatient, but the way in which people speak now drives me up the wall. I can’t take a person seriously when they are saying ‘bruh’ or ‘mans not doing that’ or whatever such nonsense. Also, tea and coffee. Has to be loose leaf or freshly ground.’

‘Bread. A plastic bag of bland, thin, uber-processed slices makes me so sad and I won’t eat it – but a freshly baked crusty sourdough loaf, that I can cut a nice thick slice from and slather with salty butter, is a thing of beauty.’

‘Unpopular opinion probably, but engine idling*. For me, the level of disgust is on a par with spitting on on the floor on public transport.

*Always diesel for some reason.’

‘I can’t help but look down on the loud and proud picky eaters. No problem with people who have autism and food sensitivities and other medical reasons of course as that can’t be helped but the ones who are just close minded about food and only eat beige food can be so annoying and I can’t help but judge them.

‘You know the kind that refer to non-British food as ‘foren’ muck’ and would turn their nose up at your food if they saw something slightly unconventional or saw a hint of colour or a vegetable on their plate. It’s like they’re proud of being close minded and having a limited palette.’

‘Buying Mutti tomatoes. Now I’ve tried them, I can’t go back to the 30p tins.’

‘HKLP – holds knife like pen. Causes me actual physical pain.’

‘Books. I do judge people who have a larger TV than bookcase (Kindle and other things are kind of ruining this for me though!). But if you have a colour-coordinated bookcase for ‘the aesthetic’ you can gtf.’

‘I’m council estate af. I have absolutely no reason to be snobbish about anything. However, Wetherspoons pubs are vile, smelly cesspits. I’d much rather pay £6 a pint at a decent local boozer, not some shitty, soulless chain.

‘Also, people who go to Benidorm (or “Benners” as an ex- colleague used to call it. She goes there at least 8 times a year) and try to convince me how amazing it is. I much prefer Italy, half board. No buffet slop there. 3 course meal every night.’

‘Double barrel first names. Nobody has got the time to call your daughter Chloe-Sophia. They aren’t a CBeebies character.’
