Students at my local's pub quiz who start creeping in to join their mates 5 minutes after it's started so they can spend the quid they should have chucked into the prize pot on bags of fecking Haribo from Tesco next door. Which they proceed to eat washed down with pints of tap water from the bar whilst Googling the answers like mad. Haribo...I ask ya!
A new record of 16 playing as one team last night...where's the actual fun in that anyway?

Twats on motorways who wait until they nearly crash into the car in front before thinking about overtaking, they must have seen the car in front getting closer and closer over the previous half mile. Look further than your bonnet you feckin mongs!

I think I'd find another pub to drink in. Sounds a nightmare of a watering hole.

I know something you can put in your window to guarantee nobody ever hits you....

Just because you're losing!
Nah, still done 'em. Can't Google the picture round (yet!) or use it to pick up bonus points by getting connections between the previous answers. Would have had to ask for a 'stewards' if they'd have won anything though as they were taking the micky last night with the team size and the cheating.
Oi Admin, Why was this post deleted? Twats on motorways who wait until they nearly crash into the car in front before thinking about overtaking, they must have seen the car in front getting closer and closer over the previous half mile. Look further than your bonnet you (edited so as not to offend)
Rubber neckers. I've just read a story where the police have caught 60 people slowing down on the opposite side of a crash and then take a photo! ! Why do some people slow down and cause more traffic problems to gawp at some poor soul who has crashed? Utter imbeciles.
When I am listening to music on the radio and like a record, wait to find out who it was and what is was called, but they never give you that information after the record only before and if you have never heard it before you would not be paying to much attention until after you have heard it.

As long as you're not driving you can check the station's website and they should have a now playing and just played list.

Unfortunately, it is nearly always when I am driving
"No way, Timberland would be nothing if it wasn't for One Republic"
It went on like this, 3 people talking about manufactured hip hop/rap/pop acts that I know nothing off, or care to know anything off. The conversation was interjected by each person using the term 'like' every 30 seconds.
"Nah it's like, One Republic did that track like, they're just real like"
I have to sit in silence, listening to this waffle that to me is as excruciating as someone running their fingernails down a chalkboard etc
Later on I heard the line "the house scene in India is really happening right now"
Taken literally, I could've pulled my colleague up on this and questioned how, in a country of a billion people and widespread poverty, the house scene was 'really happening'.
No, I just sat there thinking, I wish I had someone in my office to talk about how many threads Paulie starts on CL or what Operation Pig has just posted. Perhaps they would find that as annoying as I found that whole episode.
Also posted on the "EE and other networks" thread....
I don't think it matters that much who you're with. I've swapped providers a number of times over the years because none of them provide actual customer service. I honestly don't think any of them are any different. It's a thing that really pisses me off that these companies make signing up for their service or upgrading an absolute piece of piss - direct line through, answered quickly, knowledgeable staff etc - but as soon as there's a problem, or you want to leave, or ask a question, or anything at all that doesn't involve them taking more of your hard-earned, they make the process so difficult that you have to hire a private detective to find the right phone number, then there's a 30, 40, 50 minute wait on hold, eventually you get some doofus on the line who doesn't understand what the problem is and apparently has no authority to do anything you request, sometimes you get cut off, if you DO eventually get through to a 'supervisor' they argue the toss with you....and so it goes on. It MUST be beneficial to a company to make problem resolution a POSITIVE experience. I'd stay with a provider indefinitely if they looked after me properly. Unfortunately, none of these clowns do it.

Using up time going to meetings where someone with the most boring voice on God's green earth reads a PowerPoint out word for word.
Meetings
However everyone puts the slide up and talks about that slide, whilst no one is paying attention as they are all reading the slide.
