aholes who can't go above 25 mph in a 40 zone and who never, ever use their indicators. Yes, I'm thinking of you in the white Honda CRV.

Calling people council because you're unaware that other cultures that don't only involve cups of tea, cornish pasties and complaining about foreigners, exist.

Council.
I think every culture moans about foreigners laugh
As for no tea or pasties, surely the Red Cross needs to be involved laugh

has putting padlocks on things been mentioned yet ?

not on doors or your bike but on bridge railings and fences.

if you're gonna affix something on a public erection why not something useful ?

like,say, an adjustable spanner, bicycle pump, nail clippers ?

Watching Pointless, when you're just working your way through the list of questions and they switch the camera in order to cover some inane discussion with a contestant.

Especially those that have a "help/more info" link next to every field and the developer has been very lazy.

password manager that has an occasional brainfart , gets everything mixed up, and fills in your email in the address line and your mobile in your surname box.

i blame pass last, but it might be the site's fault.

Developer... you meant the company based out of India who set up a out of the box form on Wordpress.

I'm not convinced that adjustable spanners and nail clippers are going to have the same romantic appeal for young couples.

Unless, in a fairly unique take on the story, it turned out that Relja left Nada for a rather practical lady in Corfu on the basis that she had especially nice nails and a real knack for plumbing.

Roof racks.

Why the fk does every car manufacturer have to have their own unique fitment? Every time I change car, I have to buy a new fking roof rack system!

Paper straws! They are, for the most part, useless.
But it's good for the environment

They are restricted with very heavy-handed legislation, it's easier to buy some types of gun than a plastic straw!
However, they seem to be supplied with things like cartons (non-recyclable, plastic-lined) or paper cups (plastic-lined? Often with a plastic lid!).
The thing is, assuming they were made with something like PET the good old plastic straw would be the [I] only [/] part of the setup that is actually recyclable! spin

I'm also told that the paper straws, being usually sodden by the end of their use, can't be recycled banghead

annoying me mostly today is that the only word that fits the last clue in my jumbo times crossword is:

Impossible to understand = IMPENETRATE

however the Collins and the Free Dictionary say it's a word, most others said it don't exist.

frankly I'm a bit disconfondulated.

I don't give a st about romantic couples. Its a stupid idea and can damage the bridge due to the weight.

Overuse of the word 'Sadly' , as in 'my dad just Sadly died', What's the problem with 'my dad died', and while I'm at it,
'Issue' instead of 'Problem' . An issue is a point of contention .

Emailed a company about an enquiry if they could supply something...

Got a response back

If you are looking for a price and availability, please supply:

CONTACT NUMBER


FFS, If I wanted to be contacted by phone I would have phoned them. Not to mention it was a yes or no question which they haven't answered.

After I nut and I go for a pee the pee just goes everywhere! The floor, the wall, and on the odd occasion the toilet roll holder.
