If I could thank that post 10 times I would.

I laughed last week coming out of the shopping centre.
There was an auld couple going down the middle of the escalator ramp thing with a trolley and not much room on either side so I had no choice but to wait. Two girls though walked past me though and the first one who was slim enough slid between the trolley and handrail no bother. However her more rotund friend got her arse wedged between them momentarily and had make a real effort to pull herself through.

Life is fast enough. Take 2 mins to stand there (to the right obv), let the technology do its thing, and catch up with your thoughts.

Think Russ Abbott in the aul Hamlet adds.

I've witnessed many similar happenings on the dreaded shopping centre escalators

It's even worse when it happens the other way around, people with their trolleys ramming their way through the other people
'Sorry, excuse me, my fault, beg your pardon!' .-.

Driving around a packed carpark looking for a space, then you see one and drive up real confident and turn into it and there's a motor bike parked in it. Just happened me earlier on today. If the bikers would only park the bikes towards the back of the space so that we car drivers could see them!

Just thought of another one

- JVC Infomercials...

People who walk out in front of you and then who walk slowly or then brake test you by stopping suddenly to check their phone.

Or when you're in a big car park with hundreds of free spaces and someone parks really close to you.

I've just spent the last half hour searching for a fresh pack of smokes I mislaid somewhere. I can't prove it was him, but the young lad has form for this shìt where he goes and hides my smokes because he must have come out of the womb with a "NO SMOKING" sticker stuck to his fcuking forehead! :mad:

Have to go down again now and get another fcuking pack, hopefully they'll "turn up" by the time I get home


They'd fcuking better! :pac:

There's no Sudocreme around is there? My mother reminded me at Christmas about the time, as a young child, just after my little brother was born, that she came downstairs to find her ciggys crushed up and mixed into Sudocreme and smeared everywhere, including all over my brother, personally I don't know how she didn't kill me for that:D
