You ain't round my old lady's are ya
Family get togethers. One of them has convinced himself Elvis is still alive and has even had a fully blown arguement regarding it. Another two have dropped on hints about them committing suicide and another has sat there farting non stop for two hours. This makes league of gentlemen look normal...
Where I work you can be sacked for revealing your salary. No one ever gets a raise so new hires are all earning much more (for the exact same work) than that the people who have been there for years. If the new hires revealed what they are earning, there would be massive unrest.Maybe it's because my pay scales are public knowledge, but I've never seen the issue with talking about pay. Always strikes me that people must be embarrassed about what they earn if they get that funny about it.

MOTs. Not sure what suspension arms are but I had to have them yesterday. £200. Bastards.
Something that if it's not working could kill you and your passengers. The price is cheap for your/their life. They aren't bastards, they are your guardian angels!MOTs. Not sure what suspension arms are but I had to have them yesterday. £200. Bastards.
Speaking of cars, bloody gadgets that don't need to be there that give annoying errors lights.

Don't know about the UK, but in the USA, it's mandatory for all cars sold after 2018 to have reversing cameras.Speaking of cars, bloody gadgets that don't need to be there that give annoying errors lights.

It's not something that annoyed me, but that certainly annoyed a lot of others.
I once decided to record a message for my voicemail in box. Couldn't think of anything witty to say at the time, so I just recorded myself saying "Hello" as if I was actually answering the phone. My Nan used to get very frustrated, because it always caught her out. Anyway, I once got called by a salesman on said phone.. I didn't hear it ring, so it went through to voicemail. The ensuing shenanigans went something like this:
Voicemail: "Hello...."
Salesman: "Hello I'm calling from....."
(Voicemail beeps)
Salesman: "Uh...." (Clicks on automated mesage machine).
I laughed about that for ages and ages.
You'd frickin HATE my mother. Can't leave the house without going back inside 4 times looking for things which she has actually taken with her and put into the car. Need to build in an extra 10 minutes of contingency if she is giving me a lift anywhere, to allow for the faff time. Fucking draining.Faffers. People who just faff.
People should just do things rather than piss about.
When was that conversation, 1975?
That's bullshit. End Of.People who write something and then say 'End Of'. (By the way, I didn't say it)

Where'd you live Dan? :joyful:
Plenty of bandwagon joiners go and watch wasps every other week.Bandwagon joiners.
Currently it is people who trot out any line you know has been in the media endlessly for days.
ATM it is politics ... we need a strong and stable leader, we need to save the NHS, we need to control our borders,
Taxbombshell blah, blah, blah.
Now I don't mind the phrases if the spouter can back up the slogan with a bit of argument or evidence but, you know the rest. The other day there was a focus group I was reading about in which one person said, "I didn't know we were in the EU until the referendum." They come on news programmes and they talk in cliches.
Maybe we get the politicians we deserve.
It's not just politicians. It's, 'Ooh I'm dehydrated or stressed or low blood sugar or needing a sugar rush. I need some me time, quality time, down time."
People talk and clearly believe such bollocks.
