People that wear sunglasses when not a bit of sun to be seen in the sky I have never understood that one. And the fashionable no socks with jeans/trousers that are about 6 inches too short maybe I'm just getting too old but I've never looked at an ankle and found it that appealing lol
I wear sunglasses a lot. My mum and dad have both had their cataracts done, neither ever wore sunglasses and lived in a not sunny place. I want to avoid cataracts.Plus I look cool.

Guy sitting in our customer waiting area on the phone, only it is on loud speaker, it is bloody annoying and I'm struggling to concentrate, being able to hear both sides of the conversation!
This annoys me too and I don't get why it's done. I normally see it in a student workspace or around the campus.I don't know enough about phones to tell, but I think part of it might be them trying to show off their phone.
A couple from today:
Firstly the anus in his blinged up Merc C class that, whilst stopped next to me at a set of traffic lights in Farnham, flicked his cigarette butt out of his driver window which resulted in it landing on my passenger side front seat as i had the window fully down on my 205 GTI
Thankfully i saw him do it as i'd glanced over so managed to quickly grab it, before it had a chance to burn my seat, and flick it straight back towards his Merc. Did quite well with the aim as i managed to get it straight back in his driver side window. The butt landing in his crotch appeared to be a bit of a surprise for him judging by his jumpy reaction and exceptionally high pitched squeal 
Secondly the 2 late 20's / early '30's women that decided to have a chat / catch up with each other in the local Tesco petrol station. By this i mean both pulled up at neighbouring pumps, got out of their cars (500 / Mokka) and then start chatting. They could have still talked to each other whilst filling their cars, but no, just got out stood in the exit lane between both cars and yack, yack, yack.
The guy in his '60's with a Volvo, at the pump behind the 500, soon finished filling and got back in his car to drive off. Started edging towards the women, who were still standing in the gap between the pumps where the 500 & Mokka were parked, and stopped thinking the women would move for him. They didn't - so he got out of his car and said to them quite politely "Ladies, this is a petrol station, not a coffee shop" - at which point they finally seperated and moved back to their cars to start filling, but not before the Mokka driver called the Volvo driver a f'ing c u next tuesday

I have to nominate the guy I saw on the M3 a few days back. Nothing wrong with his driving, apart from staying in lane 3 when he didn't need to. Nice car too, one that's on my 'maybe' list for my next daily - an M140i.
Unfortunately, he's fitted a totally non-standard exhaust. Nothing wrong with that I hear you say, all the better to enjoy the sound of the straight six. But he's also got it mapped to backfire 3 times every time he lifts off the throttle. Loudly. Very f**king loudly. He may he enjoy a sound like 3 gunshots every time he lifts off, but most of us don't. Lifting off repeatedly in traffic and producing three f**king loud bangs every time doesn't sound good, it sounds very t
ttish.

There's an idiot in a black on black 3 series saloon with quad pipes and a backfire map near where I live who insists on accelerating and lifting off all the time he's driving it, it's not an M3 or M4 just some sort of 4 pot on a private plate!!!!Unfortunately, he's fitted a totally non-standard exhaust.

selling a silver coin on ebay, posting it in an envelope in a post box with zero tracking and trusting it will get there.
Then when it doesn't arrive, get zero apology but get thanked "for the lesson" implying I'm a scammer saying it didn't arrive.
I've got 700+ feedback, and have got better things to do than try and scam £12 worth of silver on ebay.
Cock.
He did say he'd send another out signed for etc, but really put a downer on the whole transaction.

It probably did arrive, he'll have just been a chancer after his money back. Then when it doesn't arrive, get zero apology but get thanked "for the lesson" implying I'm a scammer saying it didn't arrive.

Sorry, just to clarify, I'm the buyer and It definitely didn't arrive. He no doubt thinks it did though. I didn't even get an empty envelope where the contents might have been stolen by a postal worker.If it did eventually turn up long term then I'll send it back to him. Feels s
tty though that he thinks that. bluezedd said:

Ah. In that case he probably didn't post it especially considering China can send tat half way round the world using untracked packages that rarely seem to go missing WarrenB said:

Stuff can go astray. For my birthday around a month ago S bought me (another!) pair of little used Air Max (I love them, but not the price!) They only arrived 2 weeks ago. I'm sure he was upset, we believed that he'd posted them - his comms, and stating what he was chasing were fair. It was a pleasure to be able to message him and state that they'd just arrived, and we're delighted that they are very very near as new, hence happy customers.

I thought it could be that, but tbh from his feedback and his interactions I do get the impression he posted it. He's sold high quantities in single transactions of this coin before.I genuinely think it's been lost between his post box and my door. It's only been 1 week though since he posted it so I'll hold off a bit longer before getting the replacement sent out.

That's promising that it took a couple of weeks to get delivery, so hopefully it's the same sort of situation for this one. I believe he has posted the coin based on his message to me, and the large number of coins he has sold before in previous transactions.They only arrived 2 weeks ago.

I've told him I'll hold off on him posting out the replacement until next week and see if it turns up as hopefully it is just lost in the post. I can empathise with him selling an item on ebay and it getting lost and having to send out another one. If it doesn't turn up, I'll need to record opening up the signed for delivery replacement he said he'd send out though, in case he's decided to scam the scammer that he suspects I am.
Ford Galaxy or Vauxhall Zafira with the most horribly loud exhaust that popped after being revved, driven by middle-aged saddo with child in front seat, revving the nuts off it in traffic in a crowded high street.
Absolute utter Pratt knob.
If I were tough enough I would have reached in and taken his keys away.
