I particularly fucking hate travel sites which don't allow me to search 
on the basis of "I don't care how I get there just show me the absolute 
cheapest way"

It's no good advertising that I can fly to Ulan Bator for 20 pence and 
winning smile if typing every permutation I can think of into your 
shitty website claims that at minimum it's going to cost me 100 head of 
Yak and 3 shiny beads.

And you, yes Trainline.com I'm looking at you, if you tell me that a 
first class rail ticket would be cheaper but that first class is only 
available outbound and there's no return first class then, you know 
what? I'll cope. I'll travel up to Yorkshire in first class and then 
squat, hippy like, in the corridor on the way back. I don't mind. It's 
better than being crammed in with the other sloped browed 
mouth-breathers in both directions. But NOOOOOOOOO. You can't fucking 
handle that so I'm forced to sit facing backwards whilst the family of 
congenitally foul smelling malcontents squawk loudly about how their 
Charmaine has just got promoted at the supermarket and their grubby 
turkey-twizzler guzzling spawn alternate between hurtling up and down 
the aisle and playing crap, tinny 'music' through the bass-less speakers 
of their chavtastic mobile phones.

*sigh*
