Pet Peeves IV

[Northernhibee]

How when it’s time for me to give the dog a bath she always seems to find a muddy puddle or a bog.

She came home covered in mud and it now looks like there’s been an explosion in the bathroom.

Wife opening a new loaf of bread before the old one is finished, does it every time if I don’t catch her in the act, does my nut in.

Instagram posters who post still photos as reels. Why?

We are the same age, yet I've never had Instagram, Snapchat, Tik Tok or any of that crap. Whats the actual attraction for Instagram? I just don't get it. No desire to have any of the above either. Genuine question.

Instagram is far better than Facebook and its still pretty push. The difference though its mostly just pictures and videos of friends you follow. Where as Facebook is just full of pish videos and articles and rubbish really.

The joke goes the youngsters should their parents how to use Facebook, then left them there and went to Instagram. Snapchat and TikTok is where most under 20s go, they won't have a Facebook account, if they do they will rarely use it

For all the downsides of social media it isn't without it's positives either.

I love the access to relatively niche subjects. I subscribe to YouTube channels about aviation. Something I can't really share with my mates in the real world because it's a source of hilarity to them that I enjoy videos about planes and flying. I follow Instagram accounts that deal with the same subject. Same with running. It makes access to top coaches and the like borderline accessible.

I suppose it depends how you use it. I can find it really draining and negative but that is usually when I am being argumentative and allowing it to annoy me. Other times it's hugely informative, accessible and good fun.

one channel you may already know on YouTube is “Dark Skies” the guy that runs it is certainly very clued up but comes across as very intense to me, a very informative channel for aviation geeks looking for content of that era.

Alec Joshua Ibay on youtube, he recreates air disasters using a flight simulator. All factual and sometimes includes actual cockpit recordings of the pilots. Well worth a look.

Ooft! Not good. I believe what I was trying to say was why does McDonalds say open 24 hours but actually only for drive through!! In Alloa at least. I took the option of walking home from the pub, you may have guessed I'd had a few, so as to get a McDs! Doors locked and only drive through open. Anyway toast and roasted cheese with Worcester sauce after I'd plodded home

Either pished or fat finger syndrome.

[Hermit Crab]

I've just seen an advert for Sodastream on tv. Some American tart doing the voiceover and they're making it out like its a new thing. I remember having one in the 80s.

Worked in one as a student, didn’t know a single employee who hadn’t been verbally or physically intimidated or assaulted by drunks. One spat at, a couple with drinks thrown at them.

My pet peeve this morning it that ****ing alarm that’s been going off since 5am! Ah, this is the cure, I typed that and it’s just gone quiet. I’m away back to sleep for half an hour.

[overdrive]

People who don’t turn their phone off or to silent at a show. I was at the opera last night and someone’s phone went off in the row behind me. Fair enough, they could have forgotten to turn it to silent. It then went off 3 more times. If that had been me, I’d have turned it to silent after the first time!

Personal details they don’t need to know.

Went onto “compare the stupid animal” website to get a car insurance quote this morning and it wanted my driving liscence number. Didn’t give it, why do they ask for that for a quote? I already answered all the driving history details, if I go with a specific company they “might” need it, but not for a quote from dozens of company’s. They won’t accept “off you Kcuf”, unfortunately.
Then tried a specific company, not a comparison site, and they wanted my mobile number. I had already given my house tel number, but it wouldn’t let me proceed without my mobile.
Guess which company’s won’t be getting my business?
It’s getting ridiculous the amount of personal information we are expected to hand over.
