The entirely missable and worth mentioning because of it

You can tell us more about Plymouth.

The Worst Things

• Apathy of people. Not open to new stuff and the like. Even the students are a bit daft.
• Putting up with a Nanny State....Urgh.... it hurts!
• The amount of chavs out every weekend.
• Many local bands in Plymouth
• argyle footy club and fans
• Idiots with money on their minds who take over venus thinking that they can improve them while actually destroying the good vibe the clubs/venus have built. See: The Cooperage....The Warehouse...Sound Factory...The Quey Club.
• The PC shop on the ridgeway, bad attitude, im only a week old woman how do i know the whats me a call it, does not go in the thingmy bob.

• The weather
• In breads from Cornwall
• The masses of construction work in the centre of town. From my Halls of Residence, I can SEE the centre of town. What should be a 5 minute walk is currently a 20 minute walk because of all the diversions. It should be finished by about 2009. Gveat -I'll be dead by then.
• Cant pull em' cos i got a missus!
• The weather is always grey the sky is always GREY!!!
• Janner boy racers, Burbury types, Elizabeth Duke wearing girls, Gold is not cool or attractive, spitters, Litterers and Boys on the lash
• the fact that they are demolishing the sundial

• Swills
• The shittest school ever to hit england, one day i shall smash down John Kitto school wiv a bulldozer. Full of pikeys and kevs. nothing else bt a prison for losers.
• Windchill factor makes it feel colder than it is. Union Street is a haven for thugs.
• The Local Council
• Union Street is more of a boxing ring than anything else, on a Friday/Saturday night.
• The fact that the city centre isnt in the centre its in the south western part and hard to get to if you live in the north of the city. The massive number of council estates! Stonehouse, its a very historical area with great architecture and old roads but currently inhabited by theives,druggies, homless people, scallys, 16 year old mothers and violent young men!
• Saturday nights on the strip. Boots, Matelots and Swillyites on the lash and out of control! People who slag Janners; we were born here, we belong here, it's our home. If you don't like it, don't come here.
• Daniel Davies-What a tosser he is. Southway-Absoulte shithole.
• Daniel Davies-What a tosser he is. Southway-Absoulte shithole.
• The city centre around Mayflower Street and Cornwall Street. The fact that everything is centralised. Nothing much goes on in the suburbs unlike in other cities and shopping is very basic in the suburbs.
• Need it be said - Swilly kids with their burberry hats. They look like cheap imitations of Blazin' Squad. Don't stare too long or they'll spit at you and get their endless list of yobo cousins on your case! JFK's on a Friday night cos its like something out of the living dead!!! Bloody awful!
• Townies and the young sheep who think their alternative but just are copying us coz they think its kool.
• SWILLY!!!!!!!!! every decent place in plymouth has either swilly (north Prospect) or efford (another area just as bad as swilly) connected to it or else a series of council homes contained the most uncontrollable children who are just pure evil!!!
• The violence on union street A lack of decent pubs
• The mingers out on union street with awful tattoos on their chicken wings with the names of their 5 kids they had before being 18
• The Plymouthians. If they can't get things off you by fair means then they will go all out and use any tacticts available. The ignorance of Plymouthians never ceases to amaze me along with their sad lack of morals and any sense of decency. I've lived here for ten years and constantly have been told to go back to my own part of the country, now I admit defeat and am moving back North amongst decent people.
• Plymouth "University" students that come down from up north, not realising that it is blanantly a POLY still, thinking they own the place and hanging out in Cuba and Ride pretending that they surf. And what's with those hoodies they all wear?! Is it really that good a thing to advertise to people that you don't have enough points to go to a proper uni?!

• PEOPLE DOWN HERE ARE TOTAL TOSERS... I HAVE LIVED HER FOR 2 DAYS ..AND I FUCKIN HATE IT.. EVERYONE ARE FUCK UPS ..AND ARE NOT FRIENDLY AT ALL....THEY ALL THINK THEY ARE SO HARD AND UP IN YOU FACE ...WELL THEY SOULD GO TO WHERE I USED TO LIVE AND THEY WILL SEE WHAT HARD IS....AND IF YOU LIVE IN PLYMOUTH CHANGE YOU FUCKIN ATTITIDE
• Lack of good job opportunities. Not London. Not Manhattan.
• the worst thing about plymouth is the amount of do gooders they think the're so right all the time. the people who say theres a drug epidemic in the city have it wrong as they paint the city as a crap place. the worst thing about this city has to be how we treat our older residents they kept us british and we should give them the respect they truely deserve
• Plymouth City Centre!
• WE NEED MORE SHOPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
• People walking ound town talking to themselves
• TOWNIES , KEVS ,SHAZES
• The locals are the most ignorant and unfriendly I have ever had the misfortune to meet. They barge forcefully into you without apologising, and glare at you hatefully like they are deciding on the most painful way to murder you...kinda reminds me of Deliverance.
• The city is a chav-universe. There are too many annoying skaters aswell.
• Why does it rain everytime I go down to Plymouth for a visit?
• narrowminded people that frown upon anything associated with antisocial behavior. skating is prothibited in the city centre, not that we listen if ur coaght skating at civic there is a fine but noone has been as far as i know, u get moved along alot though.
• Inhabited almost entirely by mulet haircuts, hawaiian shirt wearers and karaoke bars. If you want to take a step back to the eighties then Plymouth is the place for you. Honest....you have to see it to believe it!!!
• That load of toss that is frequented by tourists and vermin, the waste of money that is the Sun Dial. It sucks!!! The amount of traffic lights (it must be a Guinness record) and speed cameras. The Barry boys who spoilt the strip on the Hoe by being t**ts in an XR3i. Anyone who uses the word Janner! You either moved to Plymouth, study there or work there you dumb shit and it was down to a choice you made! Live with it.
• The Poly
• destroyed by germans during the world wars, so buildings are all the same and boring,
• The fact that the entire city is GREY all year round, and the students who wear uni hoodies - why are you pround of attending such a crap uni?
• The really big scary arch bridge/viaduct near Penny Come Quick - At night it drips water constantly and scares the willies out of anyone who walks under it.
• the local "Janner" 14 year olds with the basin haircutsand horrible accents.
• The Cornish are just across the river Tamar!
• swillyites, watch ur valuables
• The ignorant locals. they are either rude or indifferent. Supporting Manchester United and letting their home team of Plymouth Argyle die a slow laborious death doesn't show much character either.
• Swillies
• The accent is a bit nasty but the worst thing has to be the level of driving. It is absolutely shocking. London/Birmingham are great compared to Plymouth. I have been cut up and had to swerve out of the way because of DRIVING INSTRUCTORS. Not pupils, but instructors and that is no lie. Plymouthians don't seem to know who has the right of way at roundabouts either. Sort it out cos if you hit my car I will have to kill you!!!!!!
• The trouble on Union Street when all the clubs kick out - beware, lager louts and sailers!!
• Everything is made of concrete
• The local inbreds !.
• Skaters sometimes get hassle when skating on the Hoe, skaters maybe fined...(bollox more like-no-one has yet, even the ones stopped!!)
• Union Street: try not to stare at gangs of lads unless you're hard. The football hooligans/general townies. Persistant beggars.
