So I bought a new MP3 and it's being a cnut! :mad:

I can't turn the volume up past 8. I go to turn it up and this stupid message comes up 'Volume locked, hearing damage yaddda yadda can occur, are you sure you want to unlock the volume controls?' And then you have to click yes and click the turn up button AGAIN!

It's doing my facking head in! I keep forgetting to unlock and turn it up before I go for my run and then I'm in the middle of my run and realise I can't turn up the volume. I have to try unlocking it while I'm running and it's driving me potty. :mad:

G'way MP3, I'm running, the running will counteract the hearing damage. Be grand! I miss my old MP3, he was more of 'Live and let live' sort of a guy.

Waiting in a GP'S waiting room. Time just seems to slow down. Almost 2 hours I waited to be seen. Ah well, it's done now, at least until next week when I go back for more blood tests. Still at least after that I'll only need the blood tests once a month.

I had to go to Temple Street today for a physio appointment for my little lady. In and out in less than 40 minutes. Couldn't believe it.
The bad bit was that I parked in a car park which is a good distance from the hospital but gives a daily rate to people attending Temple St.
It would have been less than half the price to park on the street outside the door of the hospital.

''Would you like a receipt ? Are you absolutely positively sure you woudnt like a receipt ? oops sorry I know I just asked you if you would like a receipt but we actually do not have any receipts''

How difficult would it be to simply program the thing to not ask you if you would like a receipt on those occasions when the receipt roll is empty ?

''I know I just told you we don't have receipts but are you absolutely positively sure you wouldnt like a receipt ? What ... you just clicked yes . Are you stupid ? Didnt I just tell you I dont have a receipt. Yes sir I actually am taking the piss. And dont worry about the long queue behind you. In a fixed market we can treat all of you like filth and theres absolutely nothing you can do about it. Thank you come again bwahahahahaha''

I absolutely hate ATMs with a passion. They make windows 3.1 look like Star Wars technology. And while all this slow process is going on ( I swear they design it so you have to spend as much time as possible standing there) there is usually a honda 50 engine impressionist going on next to you whinging and whining away ''Channgeeeeeeeee for a hostellllllll budddddddddddddddddddd'' (no not for drugs never for drugs)

The Syfy channel. My husband really loves cheesy horror films. At the moment there's some really dodgy film with a 2 headed shark, and mostly scantily clad bimbos. The blond one is bouncing around with the twins out like 2 balloons spilling out of her bikini top at every available opportunity. Obviously chosen for her acting abilities, not the big silicon implants

I was watching that last night,it was great haha.
Sharknado 2 is on tomorrow night.Cant wait.

People who can't follow simple directions.

"How do I get back onto the main road from here?"
"Go left out of the gate, then turn right at the T-Junction"
"So... I take the first left..."
"No, you turn left out of this parking area"
"Maybe I could just follow you?"
"You can't follow me, I'm not going that way."
"Okay, so I take the first left, then at the T-Junction I turn right?"
"No. No first left. You turn left out of the gate to get your car onto the road in the first place"
"So I go straight down that way?" (points left)
"Yes"
"And then the first right?"
"Why do you keep saying the first right? It's a T-Junction! You can't continue on to the second right because it doesn't exist. It's a f*cking field!"
"So where will that bring me to?"
"The main road where you asked me to direct you to"
"And which way do I turn then?"
"How the f*ck did you manage to get here in the first place?!"

My phone does this too. All the modern devices seem to be more concerned about my hearing than I am. I wish they'd feck off and just do what they're told, I don't need to be berated by my electronics.

It's a slippery slope, if we start giving them genders it won't be long before they're looking for equal rights and a vote. Gotta keep those toasters down, they're all 'it's. :P

dub_skav · 30-07-2014 10:03AM

Please, please, please. It is not an MP3, it is an MP3 player.

Just like children not old enough to wipe their own arse, they don't have a gender yet.

The day I realised "Yizzer" made absolutely no sense, my mind was blown.

"Grab yizzer coats"

Grab... you's are... coats?

When people with anger management issues warn you of such, rather than actually developing some self control or getting some help.

I've met a few people who have told me this sort of thing "Just so you know I get angry really easily. It's not personal I just fly off the handle sometimes". I just wish they would rather do something about it than expect me to tread eggshells around them.

They might as well say "I'm just warning you now, I'm a complete díckhead".

People who say "I have an issue with that". Well erm....that's your issue isn't it?
