I would like to nominate these irritating bastards, which are doing my frazzled nut in of late.
Every time you get on a website, the box from hell emerges out of the ether, asking you to ‘Please allow/accept cookies’ and a load of other blah, blah, blah shite about, ‘We value your privacy’ (my arsehole)
The only fucking cookies I would gladly accept are the type that come with big, fuck-off chunks of chocolate in them, accompanied by an equally big, fuck-off mug of tea, but if you fail to click on these cunts, they hang around like Queen Elton John on Hampstead Heath of a night, annoying your browsing experience.
Yes, I get that they legally have to ask to ‘collect my data’ (whatever the fuck that means) but for the sake of fuck, some of these pop-ups are like herpes…..you struggle to get rid of the bastards, even after clicking. Sometimes they actually breed, like Katie Price popping another one out of her expansive vag….Oh, look! there’s another one……
Fucking cunts.

Website Privacy Pop-ups…
Yes, I know this is a real shit nomination that would probably only appeal to the saddo techie heads out there (myself included). But I have to say ever since GDPR came out in May 2018 I am sick to death of these constant “We value your privacy” pop-ups whenever you visit a website in the UK. Doesn’t matter what site you visit, if its your first time you’ll get the pop-up which will give you one or two options either to accept or refuse cookies. Or if you’re lucky there maybe a third option where you can “manage” the cookies the site wants to dump on your device.
The only problem with this 3rd option is that you then have to wade through a lot more options including fairly meaningless things like “Information Storage and Access”, “Personalisation”, “Ad Selection, delivery and reporting” and “Measurement” to name but 4. But should you choose to care there’s a shitload more privacy options that you may want to switch off.
But let’s face it who the fuck has got the time or the inclination to constantly toggle options on every fucking site you visit? So you think “fuck this for a game of tiddlywinks” and just click the “Accept” option, from which point you’ll get weighed down with shitloads of ads and pop-ups when you finally get to the site you want to scope.
This wouldn’t be so bad on a PC or laptop, but on a smartphone or tablet the constant popups not only get in the way of what you’re trying to read/watch, but also slows down your bandwidth as well as eat into your data management if you’re unlucky enough to be on a metered contract.
So you have a choice: spend ages switching all the options off in order to value your privacy; or think “fuck the consequences” and just accept everything and forever be fucked with spam, ads, pop-ups and possibly viruses and malware.
