minor things that make you fume



The general public, all tossers !
I must admit, the older that I get, the less I like people.
I pulled out of my estate this morning as the road was clear. Another car was about 400 metres away so plenty of time.
The driver of this car must have been doing at least 50mph in a 30 zone and came speeding towards me until he was about a metre from my bumper. I obviously slowed down to annoy him further. Why are some people so aggressive?
 
Woman in the shop buying a few bits . Then some fags , “ Can you put £10 on my leccy and gas . “ . Then buys six scratch cards . “ I’ll have a number 5 , 12 , etc “ . Near 10 bloody minutes I’m stood there holding a carton of milk . Just koff will ya :rant:
I work in a shop.
I see people buying loads of scratch cards.
Regular customer, dead lairy builder buys loads and scratches them outside. The tenner ones as well.
It would be totally out of order for me to watch him do this and when I see him bin them all as losers go and buy a couple myself as you would be bound to at least get your money back..
No way would I ever do that like..

Some jammy get did win £250k on one here about three weeks ago as well.. sadly wasn't myself.
 
Thought ketchup was a purely yank word

Wiki says no:
In the 17th century, the Chinese mixed a concoction of pickled fish and spices and called it (in the Amoy dialect) kôe-chiap or kê-chiap (鮭汁, Mandarin Chinese guī zhī, Cantonese gwai1 zap1) meaning the brine of pickled fish (鮭, salmon; 汁, juice) or shellfish.[6] By the early 18th century, the table sauce had arrived in the Malay states (present day Malaysia and Singapore), where English colonists first tasted it. The Malaysian-Malay word for the sauce was kicap or kecap (pronounced "kay-chap"). That word evolved into the English word "ketchup".[7] English settlers took ketchup with them to the American colonies.[1]
 
People who put their bag or jacket on the seat next to them on a busy train.
Last night someone did this to me on the DC Metro. I sat on the seat and she kept her bag between us which meant I got about 60% of the seat. then she got on her phone and started talking loudly to a travel agent about flights for her boss, Sen. Lindsay Graham for at least 15 minutes. Of course in this instance feigning complete disinterest and ignoring them is de rigeur but I found the addition of a few well timed SBD's gave me a huge amount of satisfaction which sent me home from work ina gloriously smug mood - complete turnaround story!
 

Just seen that whilst we were away on holiday recently, my gobshite neighbours posted it on Facebook.
If I'd been burgled I dread to think what I'd do now.

The modern/tech world is one I am happy to have only an occasional relationship with. That post reinforces my decision.

In what world is it of any interest to anyone on the planet that your neighbour is on holiday?
