Our neighbor and friend is really annoying me.
She is boasting on Facebook about going to the pub, buying meals, and buying clothes.
This is despite owing us money for over a week.
Every time we ask, the reply is, I'll drop it off later.
Might be time to be blunt with her, and blow this friendship up.

Screaming crying kids on aeroplanes 
....Or perhaps I should say the indifference their parents show to the little darlings, I have no objection to this if the plane is descending as we all get ear popping on the way down which can be uncomfortable but to hear the wail of kids before the flight has even taken off makes my blood boil!
Give them a sweet or a dummy to shut them up Please.
And yes I do have my own Kids.

Trouble is, all of those things can be done on a credit card. Paying you back some actual money, can't.She is boasting on Facebook about going to the pub, buying meals, and buying clothes.

Cookie policies and "subscribe" notices. Why is it on every local rag site you manage to read the first few sentences of a story and then it appears.... the huge screen filling box wanting you to enter all your personal details so they can keep you up-to-date on all their dog-chases-sheep non-stories. And then as fast as you can stab your mouse pointer at the tiny X hidden away somewhere, along comes a similarly sized box telling you about their cookie policies.

k OFF WITH THAT st. 
Another PC related one. Whenever downloading updates for stuff, java for example, you are automatically selected to get some random crappy tool bar that you don't want along with some browser that you don't want. Just fJUST f

Waiting for the lift in my halls, it seems a specialty of student hall lifts that people getting off on different floors must hold the door open and carry on their conversation for a further 5 minutes. All the while, other people such as me are stood waiting for it to get back down to us and can clearly hear the conversation coming down the lift shaft.
JUST fkING GET OUT OF THE fkING LIFT UNTIL YOU'RE FINISHED, YOU SELFISH TWUNTS

kING GET OUT OF THE fkING LIFT UNTIL YOU'RE FINISHED, YOU SELFISH TWUNTSThose stupid thick framed bug eye sunglasses. No you don’t look like a Hollywood star wearing those, actually scrub that yes you do, but they look a tt and so do you. Buy some proper sunglasses FFS rather than paying for overpriced tat.
People that refer to cars like a 118d as a rocket ship, it is not a fast car.

If i want to wash my face I'll use a basin and I never want to do that on a train.
Over engineered bollix
That sort of thing paid my mortgage for two happy years. If i want to wash my face I'll use a basin and I never want to do that on a train.
Over engineered bollix
As the engineer responsible I wouldn't say it was over engineered, just appropriately engineered for a marketing feature. One of mine won some sort of award. I unscrew them and drink normally, although they do make a handy alternative to a sippy cup if you have children to look after.
Adds a penny to the cost of the packaging, adds several pence to the sale price. A triumph of greed and marketing over ecology and logic. Still, I do like my house, it's warm and has a garage.

People that use numbers for cars and presume we all know what their talking about, particularly German cars.
It seems to happen with Japanese cars too. Is it that hard to write the full name of the model?Now do a google image search on "EP3" - it's one of those.
I tend to just call it a Civic on the internet because I don't care if people picture the right one.

If it's a marque I'm familiar with; e.g. BMW E & F numbers I'm more than happy to use/see them. If it's one I have no interest or knowledge of it's frustrating because I have to google EP3 and similar.

I shall endure them with greater affection from now on.
