Reaching for a spoon to eat my breakfast cereal and always pull a soup spoon rather than a regular (premium) spoon. Reaching for a soup spoon to carry out mundane kitchen duty, dont want to use a premium spoon for the task. Always pull a premium spoon. FFS. Is the day going to be like this? Really?

I sometimes switch on QVC just to see how many superlatives I can hear in a minute.

Its "absolutely amazing".

No its not love, its a vacuum cleaner.

Tbf, my vacuum cleaner is absolutely amazing. It gives me hours of pleasure and never loses its suction. Not even on my sausage.

It is!

People who squeeze out the toothpaste but don't close or screw on the lid.

Opening cereal and not folding down the bag when your done with it.

Parents leading their children out in front or behind moving or reversing vehicles, and look at you with the stare of death because you don't stop.

Rude shop assistants who hold out their hand waiting for the monies without actually telling you how much it is.

People wearing trouseres that are too short. What the fcuk is wrong with you? Did you not check the length of them when you bought them? Are you blind?

You look completely ridiculous with them swinging at your ankles.

And when worn with white socks it is completely unforgiveable.

When sitting on the outside seat on a bus and the person on the inside decides to say,"excuse me" and stand up just as the bus is turning a corner. Maddening, and dangerous :eek:

or just holding out their hand at all. Makes me all flustered and hurried :mad: added to this is when you hold out your hand for your change and they put it on the counter. Total rejection

People who wear t-shirts with fashionable band logos (e.g. Ramones, Bowie, Rolling Stones, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, even Roxy Music most recently) yet don't listen to the band/don't know what they sound like/don't even know it's a band.

Automatic doors that open just a fraction of a second late so that you think, "oh Gawd am I gonna smack into this door and look like a tool?" but you dont quite have time to come to an abrupt stop either.

The way people look at you when you get onto a bus.

The maddening way that there are always seats at the back but you have to squeeze down the aisle to get at them, accidentally bashing people on the head with yoru handbag.

Wondering what to do with an umbrella when you sit on a bus? Leave it on the floor and forget it? Prop it against the seat in front so that it keeps sliding? Hold it like you're a total knob?

The way people bottleneck at the top of the bus and refuse to get out of the fuuckin way even though there are seats behind

Just...buses! :mad:

I usually have a small plastic bag in my handbag to put a wet umbrella in, it saves a lot of hassle.

I've worked in a shop and 1c's are the most pointless thing in existence but the amount you fly through is crazy (Of course prices should be rounded up but thats a whole other argument). There's times when I've had to pop onto another till just get 1c change for a customer and they don't even want it.

guttenberg wrote: »

Leaving 1c off is grand in theory but when you're adding up totals and you're takings don't match what's sold can lead to issues. Lets say there's 100 times, that's a euro. My point isn't the loss of a single euro but more so extra red-tape and possibly coming to the conclusion that some is stealing from the till. That's my view as somebody who used to be simply on the tills.

Customers ain't perfect either :pac:

Long hair on lads. I've never seen it suit anyone. This fella I was mad about is after coming back from Australia with long feckin hair. He's destroyed, he looks ridiculous.

My boyfriend's friend has long hair, he looks like Jax Teller from Sons of Anarchy (he's always getting asked to pose for photos). I hate long hair on guys too, but this guy really pulls it off.

I had to google that lad. He's not bad but short back and sides would make him way sexier!

My local Tescos increases the price of certain product's Thur, Fri, Sat, and Sunday's. It's not much only 50cent here a euro there. but it pisses me off. Why can they charge more at weekends.

How is this legal?

Any shop is entitled to charge anything they want for the products they sell; they charge what they think the market will pay. It's called capitalism.

How could someone even begin to think that it isn't legal?
