Default I just don't get...

It's all about the atmosphere in the crowd at cricket matches.. And contributing to the beer snake and as for playing, the hours of standing around are worth it for that one catch!

Well I suspect we've all wondered if we all taste the same thing when we put some chocolate in our mouth, or if we see the same colour when we look at some green grass etc

that was originally the point.

Well originally they were for men horse riding, but just after that the point was they were impractical to prove you were too rich and posh to need to walk easily.

I don't get cricket either, I also don't get...

Soap operas, wtf is so wrong with our society?
All the american sit coms, there are tons of them.

Jordan aka katie price

All modern dramas/ program's about werewolf's
Religion
Garlic (totally unnecessary)
Prawns and most seafood actually.

Full sugar drinks when there is a low sugar option, they taste virtually the same.

Reality tv following so called normal people around doing normal things that are scripted..eg MIC ( made in chelsea) , towie, geordie /jersey shore, the valleys and my favourite soon to be on tv.. the essex car company

Xfactor , The voice , Joseph I've lost my jacket etc. Especially where the contestants are recycled from previous episodes.

Mosquitos , need I say any more?

Bottled water from an iceberg. I mean why not install outdoor central heating while you're at it.

You spend enough time working in cricket and you realise that it's actually worse than any soap opera. KP demanding the coach is sacked, KP getting sacked himself, Watson and Clarke hating each other, KP getting upset there is a spoof Twitter account that was more entertaining than any of his own tweets, Mickey Arthur getting sacked just days before the Ashes, KP sending texts to the opposition, Chris Gayle refusing to speak to anyone at the West Indies Cricket Board and refusing to write a letter of apology, KP wanting certain matches off to play IPL, Pakistan cheating, KP falling out with the England team, Shane Warne getting up to all sorts before shacking up with Liz Hurley, KP getting injured then being photographed out clubbing when he was supposed to be resting and David Warner picking on an England player who looks about 12 in a bar, KP having a row with the Board because they wouldn't let him fly home to watch his wife take part in Dancing on Ice or whatever she was in.

Actually can I add to my list?

What is the point of Kevin Pietersen!
