little things that annoy the shit out of you

[Bobby Hundreds]

The idea of a cashless society and having to carry cash on me.

More concerned about you actively going after unsmoked bacon like a deviant of some sort.

 

If I wanted my bacon to smell like fish, I would buy fish.

Just went to make some bacon and realised that I had bought smoked bacon by mistake from Tesco ,but it was in a blue packet. Surely smoked bacon is always in red packets.

You dirty bastard

Teenagers who eat all the biscuits but then leave the empty packets in the cupboard so you don't buy anymore then when you go to get a biscuit for your mid morning break they have all gone. 3 more years then they can fuck off to University and buy their own biscuits.

you will probably still pay for the biccies

Selfish, inconsiderate neighbours who block you when you've parked up.  If it's not illegal it should be.

Random I know, but WhatsApp have changed "online" status to "Online" and "typing" to "Typing". The capitalising of the first letter is freaking me out.

Make it? Or cook it?

 

Apologies for the pedantry- I couldnt let it go

I needed a shit the other day when I was out shopping.

 

That was annoying  

[Bruce Spanner]

Waking up early, on a day when you have fuck all to do, on a fucking weekend, when your soul is fucking tired, but your body still thinks 'Yes, 5:55am does seems like a great time to jolt you wide awake'.

 

Fuck off.

[Captain Willard]

Multi communication channels - in my office we have Teams, E mail, Whats App, texting, voicemail and good old fashioned phones. Very occasionally  we meet in person. There is no consensus on how to talk to each other so I have to check 5 - 6 channels all day every day just to get a message. Drives me fucking nuts.

This is where you’re going wrong.

Ha Ha. Mrs Willard recently had to interact with John Major's office and they told her he will only read posted letters. No emails, whats app or teams shit for Mr Major. If you want to ask him to do anything you have to write him a properly addressed and grammatically correct letter and post it.

Fortunately, we got an edict that everything had to go through Teams, with email mainly used for external customers not in our Azure tenancy. Unfortunately, Teams sucks balls.

[Captain Willard]

Teams is shit 

[TheBitch]

I have never used Teams. 
Pretty happy with that.

That bird out of line of duty who is doing over 40s raves in the day. The idea has been around for years, but the BBC seem to run a story every time she does an event. Not sure why, assume she has connections there.

Do people still do raves? I thought they were old hat? And that's coming from the world's biggest square!

When tablets split out of the pop out packs - paracetamol we’ve got from some supermarket - own brand in a blue box - every single one of them I’ve had out of it has split and you have 4 pieces to swallow and can taste the bitter shitty taste. We’ve had them ages so I forgot for a while each time I’d have some as there had been a gap, but I remembered this time. They can fuck off

'They' must have changed something in the packaging, I take co-Codamol and gobble nicotine tablets like they're fucking Smarties and they're both ridiculously difficult to get out, especially in one piece. I reckon it's probably either immigrants or disabled benefit scroungers or disabled benefit scrounging immigrants who are in charge of formulations these days.

Some of them are rapists.

Paywalls on newspaper websites. Yeah course I'll pay 60 quid a year to read a local newspaper

The Sainsbury's ones are the worst for this. Absolute cunts to get out the packaging.

Had an appointment at a health centre in Ormskirk this morning at 11:00.

It's a twat of a place for parking so got there handy to make sure I wasn't late.

 

A patient comes out of the treatment room at 10:55 and I still hadn't been called in half an hour later.

 

The door opens and a nurse calls a patients name who wasn't there.

I asked her about my appointment and she motions me in.

 

It turns out my appointment had been cancelled as the specialist I was supposed to be seeing was off sick and had been for a week.

 

Nice of them to let me know.

My dad got a letter last year to go to Blue Bell health centre. Turned up and the receptionist told him he was in the wrong place he should be in Halewood (he lives in Prescot) he showed her the letter and she still tried to make out it was him that got it wrong. He kicked up a fuss and they said they will get it rebooked, a few days later he gets a phone call from a GP who said he has to make the best appointment or he will get put to the back of the queue for another “no show”. Incompetent fucking bastards.
