Epson printers & especially their customer services dept. Bought a cartridge of black ink & one of blue on-line from them last week at £15 a pop. The blue one started playing up over the weekend with error messages saying to replace it. I rang their helpline & the bloke I spoke to said that the printer might be on its last legs & to repair it would cost £120 - the printer is 5 years old & cost me less than £50 new. I said that as this was the first time I had ordered ink from them directly (I usually buy Asda's own make for £5 but they had run out & I needed ink urgently) then perhaps the cartridge was at fault & could they not just send me a new one (at £15) rather than either spending £120 (!!!!) on a repair or buying a new one (which is what I was going to do). Sorry, he said, can't do that. So Epson, who make millions every year would not send me a replacement cartridge that probably costs them pennies to make. F**kers.
Just flew into a minor rage reading the BBC sport text coverage of the Watford/Chelski game tonight. This absolute belter of a comment from Steve "Chelsea are just mad, we have to back Conte. We never give a manager long enough but expect Champagne moments on sparkling water budgets." What kind of sparkling water is this guy drinking?!
Went to a Damned gig in Nottingham last night. Two things. I have never seen so much litter strewn along the main route into town from the M6. Absolutely covering the bushes along both sides of the road.
They have planted copious numbers of young trees to shield residents from the fumes and noise. The huge number of these recently planted potential majesties that have been snapped off made me question the sanity of the utterly destructive tossers who perform such vandalism.

Trump hating amongst celebrities being very fashionable at the moment. Yeah the blokes a danger but some seem to be obsessed with hating him. It’s almost becoming as tiresome as brexit. The amount of blue ticks on Twitter that fly into a rage at every tweet is just weird, the bloke literally doesn’t give a fuck.

Are celebrities not allowed to hate the orange, talking ringpiece the same as the rest of us, Gaz? I don't do twitter, but I would imagine a far greater number of regular, normal folk also respond to his arsedrivel with understandable ire; but the "celebs" just get more coverage of their tweets outside the twitterverse than the likes of me would?
"We considered that although the image was only mildly sexual in nature, when combined with the phrase 'serve up a treat' it had the effect of objectifying women by using a woman's physical features to draw attention to the ad.

Checking in for 2 Ryanair flights with a friend. Both times we've been kept apart and Ryanair have noted 'you have been split up, we can assist if you click here (just have your credit card handy)'. Scamming, unethical scum bags.
Grown adults that put ‘lol’ within sentences. This especially pisses me off when they’re knowingly addressing a situation that makes them feel uncomfortable. Is the ‘lol’ meant to lessen the impact of their words? It’s pathetic.

It would have been good if they had told everyone to get a life, its a bit of fun.
You don't see the tennis players face, it would be funny if it was a bloke, see how many protests then?

To be fair the whole business model of Ryanair is price at rock bottom to attract punters then caning them with add ons if they want to actually travel in any form of comfort and dignity and arrive anywhere within a1000km radius of the stated destination . It's been publicised to the point of parody and can't understand how people still fund it and act surprised when their 39p return to Malaga turns out to be somewhat lacking in the customer experience department.
Getting annoyed with it in 2018 is like getting peeved at getting wet in the bath.

It is actual policy to split people up. Personally I would rather they just charged an extra fiver, and sit you where you want. Get on the flight, have a chat with a few people and move around to where you want to be, that's what most people do.

Adult actors trying to sound like young kids... like the woman on the current Sky ad on Radio, so cringeworthy, just use a real child actor you tight gits.............

Isnt something that annoys me... More left disappointed and deflated
As most know I moved roles internally yet staying @ the Orpington Office - Since the beginning of December I've been in the London Office training (Something I've really enjoyed doing) yet over the last few weeks there's been the potential for me to be based permanently from London if wages can be agreed.
Found out today that I will be returning to Orpington in just over a week and feel really deflated now, not just because I've really enjoyed working back up here in the City, yet also because I know SouthEastern are about to mess up big time

Not every airport has an alternative to the destination you need to go to. But I know what you are getting at Chirps, you pays yer money...
Use another airport then.
Good idea, drive an extra 100 miles to save a tenner.
Not quite, Chirps is suggesting you actually driving an extra 100 miles to spend a tenner more, so you can sit together... Oh and possibly having to fly on another day if it's not peak season.
Easy Jet seem to have adopted the same policy BTW, so you may have to drive 200 miles.

where does it end?
I might be wrong?
I might have written this all before...
