Selfish people at gigs.
At Beyoncé gig on Saturday night a woman near us decided to have her umbrella up the whole time meaning whoever was behind her couldn’t see anything.
She refused to put it down for anyone. Still not sure how she was allowed to get away with it
Re Max estate agent signs outside houses for sale.
There's no need for the selling agents face to be on the sign.
When someone is getting interviewed on BBC Scotland or STV and the camera suddenly pans on to their hands. WTF is that all about???
Somewhat related but it seems fashionable in documentaries these days for there to be a scene featuring someone who is being interviewed taking their seat, chatting to the interviewer and a bit of other general set up stuff, maybe getting their make up touched up then there will be a shot of their face, maybe a cut to something they say later on, a pause then the start of the interview.
It's like a few directors watched someone do it, thought it looked good so now everyone has to do it. I'm sure there is a name for it but it annoys me.
Companies that use the slogan "no job too small" on their adverts but when you ask them for a quote reply "sorry this job isn't big enough for us to take on" which has just happened to us :greengrin
Edit: just replied to them "thanks. I suggest you remove 90% of the photos on your website that show jobs that are noticeably smaller than ours" :greengrin
Just sold my car advert when they get out of the car and dance, just **** right off 🤬
And as soon as I post this the ****ing advert comes on !!
Balaclavas - you want to act like a fanny but don't want to be seen acting like a fanny.
Doesn't make anyone look hard. Just makes you look like you're worried your mum or dad is going to give you a skelpin' for **** you shouldn't be doing
Radio and television adverts that read out the terms and conditions as fast as they possibly can such that you can’t understand what they’re saying.
People. Just people in general. Anyone who isn't me that exists around me, annoying me. People who don't know if they want to go into a shop so stand in the doorway to have a look inside, oblivious to anyone wanting to come in or get out. People who just stop half way up some stairs and decide they're going to turn round and go back down. People who think if there's a bus stop on the pavement then that means you can stand anywhere accross that pavement regardless of it being a pavement that people use to get from A to B. People in groups of 3-4 people who walk along in a line, taking up the whole width of the pavement.
Got a train from Currie into Waverley earlier, then walked up to my office up by George Square. Sometimes feel like I'm in my own Truman Show and everyone else around me has been instructed to noise me up.
Standing in the shop queue for 10 minutes to buy a lottery ticket only to be told when I reach the checkout that the machine is down, aarrgghh 🤬
I know it’s probably snobbish, but my word, Oriam has been taken over by Martindale nasal weegie types this morning. There’s a dance competition and kids football on. Despite kids everywhere most seem incapable of their second word not being a swear word or a grunt.
Yours, a snobbish East Coaster
People who share those toe curling poems about how great it was in 'their day' with no thought to their own hypocrisy.
I remember when we went to the shop
Returned old bottles to buy new pop
We walked on our feet to the school
Getting in the car wasn't cool
Our milk was served in solid glass
We had never heard of a thing called plas..tic
We ate food from the local store
Seasonal produce was no chore
A holiday abroad was an unattainable treat
No Spaniards for us to greet
We never had the heating on
That would have made my dad thrawn
How I wish I could go back in time
I might even learn poetry is about more than rhyme
Just **** off. Kids aren't driving themselves to school. If you are that bothered get out your scratcher and walk your kids or grandkids to school. You can still recycle bottles. Multiple milk companies still deliver milk in glass bottles and pick up the empties. Seasonal eating is still possible, leave the heating off if you are so bothered about it and if you don't like holidays abroad the don't ****ing go on one.
It's just a 'my generation is better than yours' rant whilst ignoring the fact they indulge in multiple of the same behaviours because it's convenient. Oh and it wasn't sunny every day between May and September in the 70s either no matter how much selective memory tells you otherwise.
I was out in Glasgow yesterday, it’s been a while since I was through there day drinking, but the state of the homeless/begging problem in Buchanan Street, and around about it, is pretty shocking. So much worse than I’ve ever seen in Edinburgh.
Loads of people begging in the old fashioned, sitting on the pavement, way but there were loads just wandering about the outside bar bits asking folk for money.
Impossible to know what the stories behind them being in that situation are, but it’s a ***** state of affairs to have that problem to that extent in Scotland.
I’d never seen homeless people outside of Edinburgh, Glasgow, London, Manchester etc until a few weeks ago when I went to Asda in one of Glasgows satellite towns and there was a wee guy sat outside with his blanket and his dug. Definitely seems to be on the rise if you’re getting homeless folk begging this far out of the city. There does definitely seem to be more homeless in Glasgow than Edinburgh from my experience as well though.
Slightly related but when I was maybe 19 I bought my mrs a rose from one of those Eastern European women that go around Glasgows nightclubs at closing time, but I didn’t have any change so broke a tenner for it. Soon as she gave me the change all her pals appeared out of nowhere asking for money, must be a coordinated thing.
