Random annoying things

Recruitment agents. They are today's equivalent of the used car saleman of the 80s and the estate agents of the 90s.

 

Over use of the word "amazing." Especially for things which are clearly run of the mill and mundane. "I went to see **** live last night and they were amazing!"

Why, did they shoot lasers from their eyes? Did they levitate? Did they walk on water? Oh, they just played all their songs a little bit out of time, trotted out some tired patter with the crowd, which they use every night and then waited until the 3rd encore before playing their only hit song. And that amazed you? What were you expecting then?

 

Amazing post.

 

That bow legged, hunched shouldered walk that chavs have.

 

and of course their half mast trousers..I really really don't want to see working class pants.

 

The strange thing is, that originates from prison mates having their trousers down to indicate they were the rent boys, why would you want to replicate this

 

Hmm, I understood it was because gangsters, when they went inside, had their belts taken away, along with anything else which could be used for suicide, meaning their trousers hung low. OUt on the streets, gansters started adopting the belt less, low slung look, to show that they had been inside and gain respeck.

 

moogs right. sven's wrong.

 

Fair doos, I stand corrected!

 

Why did they always use a Tommy Gun ?

 

Moog/Berks

I thought to myself earlier, for some unknown reason.

Prisoners don't wear their own clothes, they were elasticated trousers, so what the hell are you on about?

 

It dates back to the thirties where initially in prison they would wear their own trousers and have the belts removed before getting the uniforms with the arrows on.

 

I see!

I clearly had nothing better to think about this morning!

 

Also on the lines of this, your and you're

 

..and would of instead of would have. It doesn't take that much longer to type it correctly.

 

People who text when driving - just drive



People who stand leaning on the bar and block it for everyone else

 

Old people in Banks, think they can jump the line because of their age, if you say no, look out for the flying stick.

 

taxi drivers who drive horribly slow when they come up to traffic lights so they can change to red before they go through.

 

Going to parties and having your head blown off by the loud volume.

 

People driving right up your backside when you're doing 40mph through the roadworks on the A1 with the average speed cameras. I'm about to do that route and I know it will happen.

Taking your foot off the accelerator REALLY pi55es them off!

 

Balfour Beatty and Skanska putting average speed cameras up that don't actually do anything so I'm driving at 40MPH for no reason.

 

Graham Norton and Harry Hill.

 

Consumerism in general. I hate it when I hear "I need to get some new black trousers to go with ......"

We don't "Need" 99% of the stuff we have.

I'm bad enough and think I could really do without many of my posessions. When you are fortunate enough to go travelling to places in the world where posession is an alien concept, you realise that in many ways, we are actually slaves to our culture of consumerism, driving us to work 60 hour weeks so we can afford designer labels, HD televisions and PS3s.

 

I love Harry Hill.

Graham Norton is a nice enough chap, but his comedy is not up my street. The Beeb, for some reason, however, have decided to push him into every gap in their schedule.

 

Amen to that!

 

How can I forget them, Lady Golfer's.

Some Examples / Observations.

They don't order a pot of Tea in the Clubhouse, they ask for a pot of boiling
water, they have their own Tea Bags.

They fix up their games 3 months ahead, this takes for them for ages to get a space in their organizer.

The golf club Cougar, only appears at Club Functions, she's been through the 1st Team and now the 2nd Team, now working on the rest. Can be fun though to compare notes.

They play at Tee Boxes at least a hundred yards in front of the mens back tees, even then it still takes them 3 full blooded shots to reach the Fairway.

They count their shots even if it is a smooth 10, pick up Girl.

Every putt is holed out even if it is hanging over the lip.

You never get called through, even if they have 3 clear holes with the group in front.

Radar ears, you might be half a mile away but they will pick you up on swearing, loud behavior, LOL, and generally having a good time.

I could go on forever, but it's late.

By the way we don't mind playing with Swedish Lady Golf Pro's from the back tee's.

Ladies,

If God wanted you to play Golf your **** would be on your back.

 

I don't know what any of this means. I guess you had to be there

 

steve claridge.

 

Weddings you've tried to avoid but cant get out of. Spare me.

 

Is it your own?

 

:biggrin:

 

Do you mean that bit between Welwyn Garden and Hatfield Admin?

I do that every morning and agree there are always ****s who refuse to accept its 40 mph. I like going right down to 30 mph just to annoy them.

 

It's the same on the M1 north of Luton. It's usually alright until you get the lorry drivers on foreign plates who just carry on regardless knowing they won't be prosecuted.

 

No fortunately my sex life isnt over just yet.
