Mark Albrighton Posted December 7, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted December 7, 2021 People who disappear halfway through a WhatsApp conversation, despite me replying to them promptly. It’s like they think “Well there was no reason why my message would warrant a response, I’ll just not bother looking at my phone for several hours. Mark won’t be left in limbo at all…”.

Jesus man how do people walk so bloody slow. You're young fit(tish) men. I've already dialed back the speed not to look like a nutcase and I'm already having to slalom round you people. How is it possible to walk this slow! Then you hit a busy road crossing and they catch up with you and you look like an idiot. I'm not trying to beat you to VP I swear. I'm not in a rush. I'm not trying to get there fast. This is my natural walking pace!!! They usually manage to spread themselves out to block the entire hallway or sidewalk (pavement?) so you can't get by. Even more annoying is when you're approaching each other from opposite directions and they're walking 2 or 3 abreast and none of them drops back behind the other to leave room for you to get by. Like they think it's temporarily a one-way path in their direction and you're SOL. I used to step aside, give them a dirty look and curse them under my breath. Now I just keep going and if they don't make space I just stop and make them go around. They're usually just oblivious, not a**holes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post nick76 Posted December 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2021 Christmas cards. I hate any cards generally because I think it’s a waste of money but Christmas is the worst because you have to buy for everybody in every combination. It’s just a waste of money and that’s just started for me as I’ve only just done the immediate family so far. I’d rather just spend that money on another decent present for somebody and I’ll send a text message or email to people wishing them Happy Christmas instead but apparently that isn’t in the Christmas spirit! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Greetings cards must be the single most overpriced item on the planet. How does it cost £1-£3? I could buy a product for 50p that has twice as much printed card packaging as well as the product itself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
