Things that annoy you beyond reason...(Vol 4)
Discussion
Buying my lunch in Tescos and attempting to pay for it at the customer service desk. Only to be hindered by fat, tattooed chav women who insisted upon congregating around the aforementioned desk in order to discuss what they could win on the lottery.
SOD OFF AND TALK ELSEWHERE! My lunchtimes are of finite duration!

Plusnet and Openreach.
A pair of t
ts.
I've been with PlusNet for around 16 years, moved house last October only to find I was in some backwards pocket of ADSL hell so had to downgrade my fibre to near dial-up speed internet. PlusNet managed to configure that so badly that I ended up with around 1MB at best and often less. I've made many support requests as they seem to constantly tinker with things, each time the person dealing says they have found a config issue and corrected it, 24 hours later it's back to being pants again.A pair of t
ts.Because I changed to ADSL I was forced to take out a new contract, now Virgin are finally here but PlusNet are insisting I give them £200 to end my contract early to get a service that works (or promises to at least).
So yeah, f-you PlusNet.
Openreach were fine when I had the fibre setup though
We got a letter inviting us back to BT internet and phone yesterday.
My angelic, definitely NOT potty-mouthed wife said... "BT? You can fk right off. I'd go without the damned internet rather than go back to THAT shower of st."
I think that's only about the third time I've heard her swear, and this is our Silver Wedding year!

That stupid piece of paper folded over the packet of pills in every bloody packet. I always open it at that end. Always. Nobody reads them, nobody cares. I wish all the side effects to fall upon the person who put it there.
Oh so much this. May their intestines be wound round a tree until they're sorry. The tt in the black Civic who 2 days running has driven down the bus lane to avoid the queue for the roundabout, then cuts somebody up getting back in to avoid those queuing to turn left at said roundabout, then screeched away from the lights swerving across to turn left. fking bellend!!!
The 1st time I just thought he must be really late to justify driving like such a dick, but no he obviously does it every day and I've just had the misfortune to come across him 2 days running. fkwit!

Wind chimes, more specifically the wind chimes my neighbours have - a light breeze results in something resembling the constant demented clanging of copper pipes and some kind of fight in a pan pipe factory.
My neighbours had one of them. Some git stole it a few weeks ago.mickk said:

The mother and the company. Its not compulsory to take a year the mother could have taken less. The company could have provided some assistance when the girls between them took a total of 5 years off on maternity leave for multiple babies.
Harsh on the mothers. While a year is not compulsory, many would argue that it's also not long enough. Fair on the company.Anyway, enough of my reasoning, it has no place here!

Never take a walk over the Pennines near Burnley that is all I can say.

I suspect some businesses would avoid hiring newly married women in their late 20's early 30's for this very reason. Unpalatable, but probably true.

Indeed. I did ponder over making one for the back garden - for about 3 seconds, before realising there is no off switch....Given we're being in extra pedantic mode today can I point out you live in Gods own County btw, not Country as per your profile.
Thank you.
