We buy any car adverts. I want everyone of those pricks who start dancing by their car to get run over.... Repeatedly.2

Just been to Canterbury East station where one feckless, shirtless idiot decided to play some untillegible crap via his phone to the whole station. Moved away up the platform only to listen to a middle aged woman describing her medical symptoms to a doctor on speaker.What's the matter with people?
Was watching some hammers throwers earlier, nothing else going on in the stadium so music blaring out, why?
Seems most sporting events now have to have music.3 -
Or maybe have a Brian Harvey type of accident.Karim_myBagheri said:We buy any car adverts. I want everyone of those pricks who start dancing by their car to get run over.... Repeatedly.1 -
Almost all documentaries have 'music' playing these days, often just a few repetitive notes and drown out the speaker. It's so uneccessary and very annoying.iaitch said:man_at_milletts said:People who have to impose their music/phone calls on you in public.

Exactly, watching a trackside interview earlier and you couldn't hear a word they were saying.0

I’m not saying I disbelieve this, but much like when someone claimed they never ever touch cash, I’m fascinated. You’ve never had a backpack for work stuff? You’ve never ever gone shopping and taken a backpack because you don’t want to use carrier bags? What about on holiday? Hand luggage for the plane? Do you transport all of your beach/pool stuff down to the pool in your pockets?ross1 said:I have never had a backpack, never needed enough things to put in it. I have managed to carry everything I need in my pockets, or in a bag for nearly 80 years. What am I missing? What do people need to carry around all the time, like a woman's handbag, full of rubbish but may be needed sometime 😄3 -
Well done.MrOneLung said:
So he does unload it thenJiMMy 85 said:
I know a guy who has two dishwashers and he never has to unload either one. For one is always full of clean stuff that he uses when he needs it, while the other is being filled up.Carter said:
I'm a big believer in there can be only one per household who is capable of properly stacking a dishwasher or even not leaving plates, cups, glasses etc on the side.charltonkeston said:The dishwasher. My one has a cutlery draw at the top. Why is I'm the only one out of 4 adults in my house that can put tea spoons with tea spoons, forks with forks, knives with knives, chopping knives with chopping knives, all with the same one empty space between each item so that they get clean correctly? The same thing on the next draw with mugs, cups and small to medium glasses, all over the place and no order to it unless I load it. Bottom draw, chopping boards and baking trays to the sides and rear. Plates grouped together in their respective sizes at the front. Remaining space for saucepans and large glasses.
In my home my wife, whom I love dearly and to my knowledge has never smoked crack but stacks the dishwasher like she's just come off the teat of the pipe. Lunacy
I had a disagreement with someone who insisted that all cutlery must go business end down in the cutlery bit. I argued that wasn't necessary but more power to them. Their argument was more "no, they all MUST go pointy end down". I asked why Bosch, Hotpoint and their cohorts bothered putting a rack in those bits that clearly won't allow a fork to go end down if it was necessity. This was ignored and I was told it was dangerous to put stuff handle down in them. I’ve half heartedly since been trying to find statistics or accounts of people injured or killed by falling and landing, impaled on a dinner fork in a cutlery rack.
I have a nasty feeling it will be similar in numbers to men who slip off the toilet and a toilet brush handle ends up in their night fighter requiring hospital treatment0 -
Americans using ‘bunch’ incorrectly. Just heard a journalist say “they heat up a bunch oh water” while talking about nuclear power.2

My dad has never had a backpack. He has never used a credit or debit card. He has never owned (and refuses to have) a mobile phone.JaShea99 said:

Course there are. But he said everything goes in his pockets.0

No, I have never had a backpack. Retired now but did not need to take anything to work, unless no cafe then a lunchbox, but I can manage to carry from my car to work place. I take carrier bags when shopping, from shop to car, a small hand luggage, (yes small), for airplanes and beach. Never carry more than I need.JaShea99 said:

Sorry to disappoint you. When I was young, backpacks were never used and I still do not1 -

Definitely NO to duffle bags0

Fair enough. Not disappointed just intrigued. And each to their own but personally I can’t stand carrying things in my hands if I don’t need to. So in answer to your original “what am I missing?” question, I guess you’re missing having your hands free if you’re constantly holding carriers.ross1 said:

1,000 pages of general things that annoy you, all of which are actually specific things that annoy you.
At this momentous juncture, could the thread title be changed?
Because the current one generally annoys me.3 - Sponsored links:

Perhaps open the thread more sporadically and gradually wean yourself off it.0 -
I blame @BDL for this thread. I hope you got your boiler fixed Dave.
