little things that annoy the shit out of you

[A Red]

Its more than a little thing but I cant be arsed to find the rant thread. I realise this will make some smile but it gives me the opportunity to vent so win win. 

 

I've been looking forward to the government pay out for self employed people of up to 80% of monthly earnings for 3 months. Not just looking forward to it, indeed i've been gloating to some of my self employed mates about how I shall get a nice payout seeing as, unlike them, I have declared all revenue in my accounts. In fact i've been lecturing them as to what a good citizen I have been and dont they now wish they had been like me? "Still you know best" has been a favourite smug saying of mine.

 

Now I find out that I dont fucking qualify for it, theres a cunt of a loophole that says if you make your income from property, despite paying tax on it, I dont get a penny. Not a fucking penny.

This. Life is definitely going to disappoint you, it's just a question of how much and how often.

I'm an international standard twat, i'll give you that. I'm not an agent of any type! Nor am I smug, if you were at my level of intelligence, you'd see that.

To coin a phrase from the great man

 

You're the "normal twat"?? 

 

Apologies for being a smart arse, I'm up since 5 am with my 1 year old and I'm in a semi state of tiredness, grumpiness and god knows what else.... 

 

Back on topic, we have a touch button oven hob. If you leave anything over the button area of it, the hob makes a beeping sound every 30 seconds or so. My missus always leave a tea towel or something on this and can just sit there with this annoying little beep going every few seconds. A first world problem, but it does piss me off no end

West Derby road being changed to a single lane to incorporate a cycle lane. Utterly ludicrous.

Virtually all of it. Matchdays were already horrendous, so this will compound that misery.

Large stretches of pavements on WDR are wide and for the most part empty. It'd be better to let bikes use the them.

They'll do that anyway , Dougie, even if they get bike lanes.

All these attention seeking "challenge" posts on faceaids. 

 

"Thanks Karen for nominating me in the 'being a mum challenge'"

 

"Here's a photo of my stupid fucking coupon because I've been nominated in the 'post a photo of your smelly coupon challenge'"

 

"Here are 10 albums that moved me challenge"

 

Do people not understand the word challenge? There is literally nothing at all challenging about any of this shit.

 

Thanks for nominating me in the eat a piece of toast challenge. Now it's your turn, everyone I've tagged. No escaping this challenge. Get your toast eaten or you LOSE THE CHALLENGE.

 

Wankers.
