Selling loads of baby stuff on Gumtree. The amount of mong emails you get

 

"is der nethin rng with it?" - immediately disqualified, you could pay double and you're not getting it

"do u deliver?" - My advert clearly stated pick up only

"15???" - I assume this is a counter offer to the price on my item. I assume this because it came without any sort of context

"wer r u?" - My post code area is clearly on the advert

"can i get it now?" - my advert clearly stated after 6pm pick ups only

I remember a few years ago I was selling a mountain bike, I reluctantly but it on Ebay expecting a few dickhead questions and offers but one of my mates suggested Gumtree and then I was opened up to a whole other work of fuckwittery.

 

I was selling for £850, no offers or swaps. I had one guy offer me £150 plus a BMX (not even a good one) and a microwave oven, when I told him as politely as I could muster to go away he then asked for my address so he could either come round to look at it in person or come when I'm not in to rob it. Okay mate.

 

Had loads of other stupid offers also, took it off after a couple of days as I could put up with them any more.

Windows updates! After the latest one, "creators update" which took a good fucking hour out of my life, I noticed the sneaky bastards introduced the new "Windows Defender Security Center" with it automatically enabled! As I looked at their icon in the system tray I thought, "Well that's probably going to conflict with my 3rd party security suite" and low and behold at that very moment I received the Blue screen of death with the "Driver IRQL not equal" warning followed by the usual reboot. 

 

Now it isn't hard to disable this new feature via the "Group Policy Editor" or the "Registry Editor" but I shouldn't fucking have to! I imagine a lot of less tech savvy windows users flapping about it all as they haven't got the prior knowledge on how to sort these conflicts/errors out.

Beefeater restaurants. Not much of a jump up in standard from Wetherspoons yet they are a compete rip off. 16 quid for a small salmon fillet or 13 quid for a curry. Go fuck yourselves.

 

Learnt that lesson a few years ago. Stayed in several Premier Inns with work that had Beefeaters. Shite everytime. Really shite

Being sick, then when you feel like you are on the mend it taking a whole new direction and puking everything inside me. My piss is darker than Alan Sex' porn collection because I can't hold down any water

Oh how I have resisted posting on here about the pile of overpriced useless piece of shit that is the cordless Dyson for fear of being banished to mumsnet but it seems I now have permission to shout it loud.

 

To be fair to it its suction is very effective...when you can get the bloody thing to work. It doesn't stand up by itself, the battery life is about 5 minutes, the dust canister is so small it needs emptying after almost every use and it's a beggar to undo; the brush clogs up with hair and the whole thing keeps cutting out unless it is absolutely free of dust and hair. How do I justify smashing it to bits when it cost me nearly 300 quid?

We are hoover hating brothers.

 

When I have mustered enough enthusiasm to actually hoover the house (I have to do it as the wife is simply shit at it) when it doesn't actually pick anything up- add to that, it will often smash the shit out of the skirting board and then somehow flip upside down when I pull it around corners.......

 

What the fuck is it with Dyson hoovers that can hoover up small toys but cant bloody pick up hair or bits of wool off of socks that are x100 lighter than said toy.#

 

Grrrrrrrrr

Fucking hayfever.

 

Yesterday, nothing.

 

Today, streaming nose and sneezing like a bastard.

 

Fucking hayfever.

 

I didn't take any pills with me when I moved to Spain because I never get Hayfever abroad, you see.
