Maybe just leave a message?
.
I know someone who’s wife does that, she just keeps calling him over and over again. If he is not answering its obvious that he is either in a position where he can’t answer i.e. driving or in a meeting or he does not have his phone on him, leave a message its not difficult. .
Maybe these people feel that they are so important that they should be able to contact anyone they want at anytime. Sounds like they have Narcissistic personality disorder

No offence meant to you or your feline friend - in this context it's fine to use that word. (or if you're Scottish) 
What I'm referring to is adults in an office asking if I'd like a sweetie and passing round a basket full of Maom's finest. Although maybe it's a hidden message? Fruity
None taken! Potty Cat went mortal coil - free in June but her successor (Genghis Khat) will receive the same lesson. What I'm referring to is adults in an office asking if I'd like a sweetie and passing round a basket full of Maom's finest. Although maybe it's a hidden message? Fruity

I'd guess it's an autodialler trying to contact you with the latest scam
It’s a customer who was on stop due to unpaid bills, but had broken his machine again by putting cheap damaged stuff in it and wanted our free help over the phone to get it going again. I answered the first time but said after that he had to call finance and get his credit card out. Morningside said:
Dear sellers,
If you're trying to sell your car perhaps you could kindly show a photo of the f
king inside!
Thank you.
Very true. I'm also amazed, especially dealers that use poor quality images. And also more amazed that some dealers have used cars on their forecourt in such poor condition.If you're trying to sell your car perhaps you could kindly show a photo of the f
king inside!Thank you.
We went to look at a Hyundai i30 over in Basingstoke and had a mooch around the forecourt. They had a Kia Sportage, same year as ours, our looks as good as new - the one they were selling had scuffed alloys, the black trim around the wheel arches was slightly scuffed and faded. It just looked a bit sorry for itself.

People who have forgotten that they were children once, some of them not too long ago, and that the behaviour of children presented online isn't likely that different from their own experiences, just slightly ahead for the modern era?
What has sparked this...
There's a post that's done the rounds on Facebook over the last week or so about a dad who apparently "can't believe" that his 11-year old daughter has a Christmas wish list where the total value is over £4,000. Things like a new iPhone, mac computer, new bike etc.
People can't believe how spoiled this child is. Seriously? Kids have always asked for ridiculous things... she hasn't received any of it, its just what she "wants"
Further annoyance from some of my mates who have commented online about how ridiculous that is. Mate, when you were 13 I remember you being very aggrieved that you didn't get a season ticket to Chelsea and "only" got a PlayStation...

Pedestrians who walk behind your car when you're reversing.
I hate that ! Luckily my car has sensors and a camera, but I have had a few near misses with pedestrians blindly walking behind me. It was always drilled into me as a child never to walk behind a reversing car.

Yup, same here. Especially when you are manoeuvering and you are reversing towards a wall or parked car, and the reversing sensors are already beeping, and then the moronic pedestrian(s) walk through the narrowing gap.

I used to tow a trailer a lot for work. The amount of people that would step over the tow bar between the car and trailer when I was sat in traffic beggared belief. People are just odd.It was always drilled into me as a child never to walk behind a reversing car.
