GQ: "Ten things we would immediately outlaw if we ruled the world"
1. The people who dance behind the Pet Shop Boys
2. Ryanair
3. Lush
4. Panini
5. Affenpinschers
6. Iced chai
7. Joss Stone
8. DUBAI???????
9. The phrase 'blogosphere'
10. The fun one on Question Time
A fairly asinine list but Dubai??? And what the hell are Affenpinschers??? Quick Google reveals that they are Ewok-resembling toy dogs - fair play.
Come on GQ, there must be a much better number 8 - suggestions please...

Re: GQ: "Ten things we would immediately outlaw if we ruled the world"
Thanks so much Meow. Can I also add:
The misuse of their, there, they're, your and you're
The misuse of the apostrophe in general use and for plurals
Milky tea
Talentless manufactured pop acts
Politicians' expense forms
People not picking up their dog sh1t (is outlawed but not sever enough penalties - they should be made to eat it)

people that change ino their swimwear on the beach....it's not like they didn't know they were going cause they brought the towel and the swimwear...
shoes with wheels underneath...
'funny' ties, socks, underwear....
people that only start thinking about what they want to order when it's their turn, even when they have stood in line, staring at the take away menu for the ages...
buffets...

Hotels charging your bank without authorisation (both hotels here in saudi have and I get funny looks when I rant at reception and wonder if I am likely to be stoned or summat)
extortionate beer prices,
driving outside of markings on any type of road,
any form of segregation,
irresponsible bar owners,
talk of a european football league,
all seater football stadiums,
be forum peace.
