little things that annoy the shit out of you

Keep seeing it said that the likes of Elon Musk or Bezos shouldn't have to pay tax because they pay the wages of so many people who all pay tax. What kind of logic is that. Musk and Bezos pay people for their services be it skill set or labour and those people pay their own fucking taxes. Should anybody who employs someone not have to pay taxes. I pay a window cleaner and someone to cut my grass I ain't paying no taxes those twats can pay for me.

Wealth Creators mate! What gets roundly ignored is that most of the wealth is created for themselves!

Yeah that grinds my fucking gears. I'd be shit on that and pick the first house shown. Show would be over after 10 minutes

I’d be about 60 seconds.  I made an offer on our current house without going inside and we’ve lived here happily for 13 years now.

Silent discos in public spaces. Seem to be growing in popularity. Saw yet another one today on the concourse of Waterloo station, one of the busiest in Europe. Bunch of attention seeking wankers.

I bet the noisy fuckers were listening to a certain song by ABBA as well.

Silent disco's seems an oxymoron to me!

I think it’s an anagram for “Needy attention seeking cunts”

The missus tried to get me to go to one a few years ago, it will be fun she said.

 

I told her to do one and she went with her self proclaimed "I'm mad me" friend instead. I'm sure they had fun.

Self proclaimed “I’m mad me” friend sounds like a nightmare.

She is trust me. Every time she goes out it is described as a mad or random one. She has an eclectic taste of music which means she likes the likes of Adele AND The 1975 or some shit.

 

It's only a matter of time before she officially pro-nouns herself.

No this was a david Bowie themed event. People had painted very small half hearted ziggy stardust flashes on their faces. In the middle of the day. It’s hard to describe how naff it was.

I was in a flash mob once. I didn’t get invited back. Apparently you’re not meant to get your cock out.

But yet you stood there and filmed them? If so, then surely you’ve made yourself part of the problem…

Yes but only so I could text itbyo

Old people at cash machines, it's like they are trying to crack the enigma code.

Or at the checkout. One of the saddest things I ever saw was an old lady using a £5 voucher in Lidl that had obviously been cut out of a newspaper and sellotaped to the inside of a birthday card.

And you felt it would help the situation by chucking her down a hole ?

Hangovers, cunts.

[johnsusername]

People who sit in their cars with the engines still on. Idling twats. Loads do it by my eldest's school. Fucking lazy - either make the effort to go to the school gate, or switch your engines off.

 

Generally the school (and nursery) run sends my blood pressure skyrocketing every day. I know it's not good for me, and I should stop stressing about what other people are doing, but one day one of these pricks is going to run over a kid. 

 

Twat - parking on yellow line

Twat - parking on double yellows

Twat - parking on the zig zag lines right outside the school gate

Twat - double parking so traffic has to squeeze through

Twat - parking on (what used to be) grass embankment

Twat - parking in the staff car park

Twat - parking on the driveway at the school gate

Twat - not parking, just stopping in the road at the school gate so your kid can jump in/out

Twat - trying to three point turn on the busy road outside the school

 

And yes, the majority drive:

Range Rover Sports

Range Rover Discovery's

BMW X5

BMW X7

Audi Q7

 

I just find that basic manners between people are evaporating - normal civil behaviour is now the outlier not the norm. People have generally become totally selfish and self absorbed. 

 

And don't get me started on the cunts who use our Nursery carpark (but don't go the nursery) to do a three point turn.

The wife is 44 and she's absolute fucking murder at a cash machine. The options are there, she knows what she wants but dithers over the button to select what she needs.

 

PRESS THE FUCKING BUTTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also when walking down the road approaching a parked car and they've got their lights on full beam, disconcerting.

Going to local B&Q this morning. Single carriage 'A' road, national speed limit applies and some twat at the front of a queue of cars doing just over 30mph!

[Stouffer]

Misreading the hospital appointment letter and then realising that it's for the hospital an hours drive away and not the one that's 10 minutes down the road.

 

Thank fuck they're still going to see us.
