    Slaves


    Pretty sure the idea of slaves is you capture them and force them to work for nothing...

    Gold plated audio cables
    special mention to the gold plated ferrule on an optical cable
    I'd add gold plated teeth to that list. You look like a pillock.

    Socks in accessorize,who pays 8euro for a pair of socks!

    Juicytubes lipgloss,they are like 30euro and you just end up eating it,no difference between them and cheaper brands.

    Leggings that are a penny over a tenner!

    Shots in a club,when you think of how much an entire bottle costs in comparison and i swear the shot glasses get smaller everytime!

    PENS!!

    Who in the world buys pens?? They're just something that exist.. look around you and you're almost guaranteed to see one.

    And if not,dip into a ladies bag and you'll find 7

    Road tax. With good reason. Slap on wrist from gaurd's. Paid road tax, week later hit a pothole (full width of road caused by new motorway machine's not supposed to be there), buckled alloys which cost a grand(my own fault i know) Now i drive with hubcaps. People also got reembursed for damage to bumpers and wheels caused by pothole but i never bothered lookin for it.

    Paid 2.50 for a cup of tea the other day, scandalous!

    Hate paying for tea :mad: It's just boiled water and a teabag.
    Well, and milk. And I like a lot of milk. I should order a "boiled milk" and bring my own teabag.
