Neighbour who comes out and wants to chat every time I go out to do something to the car, garden or anything!! I’m polite I’ll say hello to you, help you if you have a problem but I’m not your best mate. So just stay inside your own home and let me get on with my task!!!

People that don't have the balls to quote a post when taking a pot shot.

Sorry. Did I need to quote you?

Is that not just being antisocial and ignorant? I’m not one for small talk, but if any of my neighbours stop to chat I always try and make time.

Used to be a guy (might still be there) at the Carrick Knowe Co-op who couldn’t help but do this.

We had a guy in our football team who compulsively said everything he was about to do just before he did it. "Walking to car, putting the key in the lock, turning the key, opening the door and getting in the car". Apparently it started when his therapist told him to do it as a way of combating his stutter, but it became compulsive. We didn't let him take penalties.

Overuse of the words 'disgrace' and 'shambles' to describe situations which are in any way imperfect.

Clicking on an interesting looking article link on the BBC Sport football page only to find out it's about women's football.

Is there a reason I'm missing for posters to say the transfer window has "slammed shut"?
Kind of annoying me but then many things do 🤨

Reading through a thread you quite enjoy only to read misogynistic pish.

About 25 years ago my wife worked in our local shop and would chat with every customer.
She tells a great tale of a guy coming in one day and buying 6 cans of lager and a gentleman's top shelf magazine 😉.... She opened the conversation with "Quiet night in on your own is it?"

Not sure why having no interest in women's football is "misogyny". Certainly doesn't apply in my case.

It's not.

***matty_f*** · 02-09-2021 03:01 PM

Always needing a pee when I’m in the car. Literally any time I’m in the car for anything more than a ten minute drive, i need the toilet soon after setting off, even though i go before i leave.

It’s a total pain.

Steady. How on earth is that misogynistic ?

Thanks for identifying yourself. You must be the guy that parked in my drive, went round to the rear passenger side door, took out a bottle, dropped his trousers and proceeded to relieve himself in full view of my living room window (unbeknown to him!!)

He could have stopped 50m before, in a fairly secluded lay-by, but no, he decided to park in the middle of the small hamlet instead!!! At least he took it away with him, unlike the parents who stopped in my drive, changed their child's nappy and left it beside the fence!!! (I caught up with them and returned it with pleasure!!)

You’re absolutely correct mate. Hopefully you can accept my apology, I really need to stay away from here after a few drinks.

Holding the door open for someone and they don't say thank you.

Upstairs neighbours that never seem to just sit their arse down at any point of the day.

I feel your pain, as you get older it's harder to keep it in, I drive a taxi and try not to drink too much when working, thankfully all the hotels are open for business again.
