    People who talk about their lives on facebook.. I...dont....give...a...****.

    Or to those retarded posts you see from somebody on FB status going something like

    "To the person who threw eggs at my car you will pay for this"

    As if that person would be your friend or actually reading it. **** off.

    Newsflash: There is a no such thing as a "Hang Sangwich" or a "sammich"

    Its a "Ham Sandwich", period.

    "Hang" is for wallpaper, paintings or even what happens to "a hoss thief", Never, ever in a sandwich

    People who say "Jaysis there's a grand stretch in the evenings" as if they're shocked. It happened this time last year, and I'm guessing it will happen next year too.

    No, it's not. If it was, you could ask for a "hang sub", with tomayto, hold the mayo with a portion of grits and a soda, to go. Have a nice day:P

    Saw a car this morning with a 'twins on board' sticker. Does the driver want a round of applause? Or am I supposed to be twice as careful as I am around a car with just one baby on board?

    People who send silly texts after waking you up: 'I hope I didn't wake you'. It's pretty obvious!

    Ahh shìt, what was that advert with that annoying fcuk, it was either 'hold the mayo' or 'hold the pickle, extra mayo', I hate that when I can see it in my head but the advert I'm talking about would be at least ten years old at this stage...

    That's going to frustrate me for the evening! :pac:

    If memory serves correctly, the girl used to say "and heavy on the miracle". Then some church group or other took umbrage with the miracle bit, hence the change to "heavy on the miracle whip"

    When you type the year into Microsoft Word and hit enter. And the fcuker automatically includes the full date in an arseways format, and you've to go back and delete half of it before you can hit enter again and start typing on the next line.

    Women (generally of high poundage) tromping around the office in thick-heeled boots and shoes. It's like a buffalo stampede of one on the modern office suspended floors.

    You can turn off that "clippy" like unhelpful behaviour by uninstalling Word...

    Ah no, just kidding -

    How to turn off date autocomplete in Word 2007, and it's somewhat easier in Word 2010.

    Family Run Businesses, or as I prefer to think of them 'no one else will employ our kids'. I ordered something at the end of last month. A few days later they rang me to say that they don't deliver to this part of the country but still debited my card. They told me the money would be refunded to my card, even sent an email telling me it had been refunded, it hadn't. So I emailed asking when it would be refunded, they didn't reply to the email.

    This morning I rang them at 9am about it and was told someone would ring me back about it, well it's 4.30 and no phone call or email or money refunded. Tomorrow Pumpkinseeds is phoning back and is going to be an unholy bitch about it, what a fcuking dreadful way to do business.

    Family run businesses can be awful, especially anything online.

    "Mate" of mine bought a blow up doll on ebay for 25 quid, and halfway through the "act" it deflated. He emailed the company to complain that the doll went down on him, and guess what? The bastards debited his account for another 15 euro because they said he received the Deluxe model by mistake.

    People that let their dog wander around the street unsupervised, common sight in council estates. Grinds my gears.

    Either keep your dog at home or get off your arse and walk it, don't open the door and let it walk around by itself!

    If it gets a belt of a car, no point in bawling about it like I've seen a few times. Idiots!

    Solution - a wonderful invention called a DOOR!


    Now you've reminded me of something - at my parents house, the bathroom is laid out in such a way that when you sit on the crapper and drop a log, you can see yourself in the full length mirror.

    Hilarious.

    People telling me that once I get to a certain age I'll have to give up motorbikes :rolleyes:

    Also, women who think that being pregnant is a debilitating disease.
    I was told today by a pregnant co-worker that before I even consider having children (even though I have no immediate plans to procreate, nor would I discuss those plans with that person) that I'll have to get rid of the bikes and get myself a "nice, sensible car to drive around in". I was then told "sure you couldn't be driving a motorbike while you're pregnant, you can't even sit on a bicycle when pregnant" :confused:
    How about you mind your own business and concentrate on bringing your child into this world with a few less negative thoughts in your head nosy!

    What is with the obsession some people have with having children?! Can people not be in charge of their own reproductive organs??

    Football commentators in the following scenario: Player takes a rasping shot that seems to be heading in, but the keeper makes a great save at the expense of a corner. From the resulting corner, the same player heads a chance at goal and it hits post and goes wide or something similar.

    Commentator: "Oh. Player A could have had two goals in a minute". No he couldn't have, because if he scored the first chance, there wouldn't have been a corner and thus he wouldn't have had the second chance. Has been bugging since I first starting listening to commentary as a kid.

    Agreed. I have kids myself (obvious from my username!) but I know I didn't bore the pants off people the way some of my co workers bore me about every little fiddle faddle fact about their kid...
    And in my experience the men are worse! Guy who sits next to me would talk all day about his mundane kids - so often feel like saying 'do you know that EVERY child can do that/say that etc) geez....I wear headphones a lot these days to block out his boring diatribes

    Anyone expecting a kid please remember - absolutely no one except yourself and maybe grandparents (and not always even then) care less about your kid and its latest exploits. And as for your 'cute' videos of them doing whatever, NO I don't wanna see them!

    Sitting at the computer with headphones on when I suddenly realize that the music stopped a good half hour ago.
