Things that piss you off that shouldn't

Difference is one of the threads is more tongue in cheek than anything serious.

Some people are just rocket polishers. I was driving the other day and I could see a car waiting to come out of a side road on the left in front,. He wanted to turn right, ie come across the traffic. Now 95% of the cars going in the direction I was, turn left, at that road. He must have assumed I was going to, despite me not indicating or slowing down. So the clearing in the woods pulls out in front of me to turn right and I have to slam the brakes on hard and I screeched to a halt metres from his door. I look at him and he mouths the words "**** rocket polisher" back at me! I was frigging fuming! A small part of me wishes I had an old Land Rover Defender and didn't brake! I was shaking with anger. If he'd have apologised I'd have been fine... but the fact he was aggressively staring at me, and his fat chavvy missus flicking the v's with her chubby sovved up fingers. Scum. I hope they get AIDS. 

I did see one many years ago. There was a Lady in a new Range Rover trying to park in a gap on the side of the of the road she probably had about 2 or 3 goes. On the final attempt she pulled out quite safely, to try to reverse in. Then some bloke in a clapped out clio nipped into the space He got out of the car and shouted "when you can drive love, you can do that"

So she just reversed straight into the clio, opened her window and shouted "when you're rich you can do that"

Reading the continual moaning remarks after beating small Heath on the main board.

some people are clearly never happy.

dread to think what it'd be like if we'd lost earlier 

 

Everyone's an expert & entitled to their opinion, even if it's total nonsense, it's the internet ay it.

I don't usually sit in the Holte but it was the only ticket so needs must. Lower, right at the back.

This man who had to he at least 50 spent the entire first 20 minutes just randomly shouting abuse at the Birmingham City fans. If I didn't know any better I would have guessed tourettes. "**** off you words removed!" "Inbred clearings in the woods!!" "Inbred **** words removed!!" "You **** clearings in the woods!!"

This guy had quite the vocabulary, but seriously...what are you doing? They cannot hear you, you are on your own with this abuse, nobody is backing you up, why are you so angry, what are you getting out of this? Why do you hate them so much? Don't you have a voice telling you that you are maybe going overboard? Don't you realise you look like a moron? What are you like in everyday life? How do you exist and survive in the real world? 

Anyways, he spent the rest of the time calling all our players fannies and words removed then went downstairs on the half hour mark, I presume to snort some cocaine to calm himself down and came back through the 2nd half to shout some more abuse.

 

Back to the Doug Ellis for me, I may hear a group of middle age guys discuss the merits of Jamie Oliver's latest cooking show or book but it doesn't make me question some parts of society so much.

Yeah, there's a load of morons around me in K7. You don't hear a peep out of them when we're winning.

I even thought that this morn! Hence some of the crap I went to th shop to get. Had close call last night with my extension cable drum being delicately balanced on some not-right-for-the-job step ladders. Leant too far. Buckaroo! Instinctively reached out to grab cable drum, at the expense of a snatch back from the electric sander which shot out of my hands. Me. Extension cable. Sander. All on our arses. It was YouTube worthy. I should just set up a camera on myself actually prob make a bit of dough that way. 

Youtube worthy?  That sounds Laurel and Hardy worthy.

There's an Aer Lingus ad on the backs of buses at the moment with a howling grocer's apostrophe in it. 

Pics or is it online anywhere?

Can't find it online. Couldn't photograph it as I was driving behind the bus. But it's something along the lines of "No more check-in queue's"

Someone has taken our bin when they were last collected. Our green one was still there but the black one was taken. The council want to charge us for a new one even thought its been nicked. 

Oh, and they put council tax up by 10% a couple of months ago. There's a late moan!

The rise in this kind of parking if there isn't sufficient room. Prevalent in certain Birmingham suburbs far more often than others.

Surely illegal.

Oh yeah, doesn't stop them though. 

They probably get away with it 99 times out of 100. 

Who's monitoring the parking in some residential street in Alum Rock or Sparkhill in the evening?

Yeah, sorry 'bout that - I stubbed my toe when I got out of bed. And it wasn't cocaine, it was, um, like, er, it was a sherbet dip. That. That's what it was.

Never quite understood the term " tree surgeon " , kind of feels like its jumping on the medical band- wagon .

I was a season ticket holder in the holte but it became that depressing i located to the north lower close to the away fans and I knew a few people that were ST holders there. Big mistake, I ended up getting banned and not only that most people there don't watch the game and just give shit to the away fans. Back in the holte as soon as I can go again.

I'm exactly the same, shit games don't get better by adding 30 minutes to the them, they get shitter, the Utd vs Chelsea fa cup final when drogba scored in the 119th minute was utter **** garbage, I felt robbed of a shoot out, penalties make everything better and like you say should be the ultimate test of actual footballing ability, extra time is about fitness and conditioning

Yep. It's one of those stupid punditry clichés that really isn't true. That "nobody wants to see a game end on penalties". Yes they do. 

That and pundits calling them a lottery. They're not. 

 

 

See also: "nobody wants to see a player sent off". 

Yes they do. Literally every single person watching who isn't a fan of that player's team wants to see a player sent off.

Why the **** does my washing machine beep about 5 minutes before the cycle finishes. 

And then when it does finish, it beeps again. But you can't open the door for another 5 minutes. 

Then when you can open the door it doesn't beep. 

 

Why? Who thought of this? Beep once when my clothes are ready you square word removed
