That's very daring.

The longer that vehicles take to complete their journeys, the dirtier the air around you gets.

You must be pwoud, vewy pwoud.

Lol.

That sounds logical but I'm not sure it's accurate. One of the main north-south arteries in Berlin has just had the speed limit reduced from 50 to 30 aimed at improving air pollution.

Back in this thread, I raised the topic of women having surgery to their lips. 9 times out of 10 it is horrendous ....... I’ve just seen Cheryl Cole ( don’t know what she calls herself these days ) on the telly and she is the latest living proof of this self inflicted disaster.

I've got a couple of girls in work who've had this done, they look like they've had tractor tyres glued onto their faces and it gives the impression that they could suck a grapefruit through a garden hose. Maybe that's the point?

I don't know if there's a word to describe this particular peeve but if there isn't, there should be. The times when your other half is super motivated to get stuff done by (wee DIY jobs or cleaning out the loft, that kind of thing) on the specific day when all you want to do is nothing.

Also, folk who never do something that you always do but feel it's their place to chip in with how they would do it differently/better

Men who sit on the bus with their legs apart and their feet and ten to two! How am I supposed to get in the seat next to them without sitting on their knee? Knees together, toes pointing forward please!

Is this what's now called man-spreading? Seen the expression a few times and assumed it to be what you've described.

That's another peeve of mine - Shan expressions that are created now.


And the speed at which everyone races to be offended now - poppies are a great example of where folk couldn't wait to get uppity about it.

Ewwww thats a gross saying if it is that. Im gonna shout at the man in front of me to stop man spreading

I hate the nonsense of being offended as well as the blame culture.

People who don’t clear their tables in cafes where there are racks to do so and the policy is clearly advertised. Lazy ignorant barstewards.

Ironically, anything but bar stewards in this instance. 😊

People on football message boards who state what a certain player earns when really it is all speculation and no one actually knows. 😂

That one annoys me more than it should as well.

There's no way information about individual salaries is leaking out of any club to the extent some would have us believe. In fact there's no way that information is freely available within a club. I don't know what the woman opposite me in my office earns never mind a fringe player at Celtic (for example).

There's probably about half a dozen people that know/could find out - I doubt any of them would be talking to anyone about it.

How hard is it to put your shopping trolley in the designated area after you've loaded your car ?
A few days ago there was one not more than 10 feet away from the bay, lazy barstewards.
Unfortunately for them , they had left two items in the trolley. Karma 😉

Taking it further: when the government/national economy stats says that the average salary in Edinburgh or wherever is £26500 eg.

How do they know what people earn? Does the Inland Revenue tell them. So much for confidentiality.

It's a nonsense figure anyway. The average salary and what the average person earns are 2 completely different things.

Using the word "earns" for what people collect for money drom whetever source. Example. Earnings from property rentals. Not in my book!! And of course the shysters employed who simply take up space. And so on....

Up to 4 pages already on the "Yam accounts" thread. Just don't understand why so many on here are erm...somewhat preoccupied by hearts.

Many folk clutch at straws with this for some reason, tax men, accountants and auditors will be all over the accounts and all other football clubs. Few dodgy years and some hibbies think everything is a big cover up 🤔
