People who can't package CDs properly when posting them.

A square of bubble wrap over the CD tray's teeth (the part that holds the disc) means it won't be smashed on arrival.

There's even one type with "shamrock" or "clover" extract, I can't remember which. :rolleyes:

What's a CD ?

Compact Disc.
Still the most popular format for new album sales.

However, the second hand CD market has seen a serious drop in prices which means albums can be picked up for pennies - hence I purchase a lot of these online.

People can keep their pretentious crisps, I love the cheaper ones. Gimme some Thai Rings, Rancheros or Hot Lips any day!

People who don't seem to realise that different delivery methods for music, film/television and books can happily co-exist.

Vinyl & CD vs downloads & streaming
DVD & BD vs Netflix
Books vs Kindle

The amount of times I’ve thought the same thing & a few hours later order a large pizza or similar is astounding

People who spit on the ground. Disgusting creatures.

Magnum have launched a Vegan range. For some greaser in a smelly wooly jumper and stupid brown shoes.

As my TV broke down last week i´m hooked to my old FM radio.

All three stations i get in my neck of the woods are playing the same 30 songs up and down for hours without end. And streaming is no option as i´m on a limited mobile connection for the next two weeks. :'(

Went to all the effort of chopping up veg for my dinner and now that it's cooked I'm not sure I want it

They're so lovely though gifted. And why shouldn't you treat yourself?â€¦.. that's what I tell myself anyways

The guy driving the red Skoda northbound on the M50 with a child in the back today, who decided that the outside lane at >100kmph is a good spot for a bit of texting

New TA, people who moan about vegans/vegetarians as though their dietary choices somehow affect them. You realise also while being a smartarse there’s thousands of people who are medically unable to eat dairy, now they can enjoy a magnum just like you and I. God the horror.

When you go to click into a thread but accidently click into the name of the last poster. Then you spend the day hoping they don't check who viewed their profile and think you are stalking them......

You have obviously never tasted the "free from" range... enjoy ain't the word I'd use

Kitty6277 · 21-10-2018 3:12pm

Having to spend £30 on clothes for work. I know you've gotta spend money to make money and all that but I had all that stuff at home and didn't even think to bring it here with me :rolleyes:

northgirl · 21-10-2018 5:49pm

The noise out of some people eating at the cinema. They're like pigs out of troughs. You'd swear they'd never eaten before.

There was a girl behind us last night and it sounded like she was eating out of one of those large potato bags that sounds almost like cardboard. :mad:

I was thinking of getting an Airfryer for a while. Could never justify the expense but now Lidl had a decent looking one for 50 which is a bargain. So maybe getting that and try it out and maybe at some point upgrade?
Sounds fine but what does me?

Walks into Lidl yesterday, they had one left that was out of the package but all seals still intact so no problem there. Suddenly I get doubts and after 5 minutes in front of it arguing I decide to keep shopping and maybe go back later to get it. I made my mind up, I want it when suddenly a family walks past with it. OH FFS WHY AM I LIKE THAT?!
I went to 3 Lidls today on the way of my round trip to Kilkenny and they're sold out everywhere.
I could kick myself!
