My pet peeve is that I seemed to be banned from the holy ground forum and I can't think why.
There's a post explaining the situation on the main forum posted 1540 yesterday.Quote:

Retail companies that send discount codes which show as invalid when I enter it.

These 'what I eat in a day' videos that seem to be all the rage on social media at the moment. Usually pushed by 'body influencers' with something to sell.
A lot of attention is placed on body image and young females and rightly so. However such videos are clearly targeted at teenage boys and it's basically a bunch of guys juiced up on PEDs telling young lads they can look like them just by eating a lot and drinking protein shakes (link in bio of course).
Not to say that guys using gear don't put the work in but it's deceitful to claim you are natural when it's blindingly obvious you aren't.
Small talk. I appreciate I am as grumpy and antisocial as anyone, but whenever I see my Mum she’s always asking “how is so and so”, “how are x and their family getting on”. Not unreasonable, but I get irrationally annoyed when people ask about others they either don’t know or maybe met in passing once at a wedding 5 years ago. I know it’s just conversation filler but what difference does it make how strangers are doing.
Folk that can't be arsed walking their dog and just let it in the garden. What was the actual point in you getting a dog?
That sounds preferable to the ones who do walk their dog but keep it off their lead so it can run, and s***, in others(my) garden at least.Quote:

Loved having dogs but unfortunately my youngest is allergic to them. It was either dogs or him on a steroid inhaler.Quote:

When he asked her politely if she could put them on a lead, "nah we don't own any leads" followed by her screaming a lot of abuse at him.
It's against the law not to have a dog on a lead along a road. The best trained dog can still be startled and run into the road. The police very rarely do anything about it.Quote:

I've mentioned this one before I think. Bars, restaurants, shops that don't adhere to the opening times they advertise online. I appreciate places, particularly small businesses might forget to update times but the place I was last night has no excuse. I went out for a curry to Rustoms with my wife and her dad last night. We went to Platform 5 (part of Greene King) for a drink afterwards. Google had their opening hours as them closing at midnight. We had ordered a drink and a few minutes later we were being told "2 minutes to drink up" at about 10.50. Turns out they close at 11. OK, you might think Google is out of date, except for three things. The staff said they've always closed at 11 during the week, the Google entry said "hours confirmed by management one week ago" and their own website states they shut at 12.

It was left to the bar staff to decide. Needless to say it became a desert after 8pm as word got round. It belongs to a national chain so no one bothered, staff wise.
How was the curry? Haven’t tried it yet.Quote:

Tradesmen that don't show up when they say. Was meant to have an electrician come yesterday for a quote... no sign of him.
Linking that to the previous chat about dogs... tradesmen/workmen that bring their dog with them on jobs and just expect that you'll be sound with the dog being in your property (happened more than once).
The over use of the term “bottled it”. It seems to be the tribal catch all go to, to use against your rivals.
Wee feral tramps that wear all black with ruck sacks on their backs, what the **** is that all about 🤣
Was in a sports shop recently and there were 4 young guys discussing the best black leggings/joggers that will look super cool with his black ruck sack, one of them piped up, yeah you will look super cool bro 🤣
I couldnt imagine even in my radgeness days of youth trying to get a girlfriend wearing that garb 🤣
Oh and I managed to buy my flip flops and Nike socks 🫣
My neighbour does this, it's scheduled so regularly that you know what time it is by the house shaking from the door slam followed by the dog barking in the garden for the next 10-15 mins. Prick.Quote:
