It bugs me when the strap of my handbag squeaks as I walk.

I have one with a kind of keyring sort of bit hanging off one side. But it hangs against another metal bit. I've stopped using it because I can't deal with the noise, even though it is gorgeous!

It's the fault of the beans and burrito I consumed.

Cheltenham...horse racing...and bookies...
have zero interest... never been inside a bookies in my life...and find the mentality of people taking the week off so they can go on holidays to the pub and watch racing.... totally mindboggling

One of the most famous and successful make up artists in the UK has had to delete all her social media accounts and issue a public apology after receiving an untold barrage of abuse from the public and threats to boycott her brand.

Her crime? She went to a Drake concert and filmed part of it, in which she was singing along to a song which included the N word.
Now I’m not excusing the use of the word if it’s meant in a derogatory or offensive manner, but branding her a racist and a bigot for singing along to a song is a massive overreaction imo.

The anger would be better directed at the song writer, or maybe the other ten thousand people at the concert also singing along to the song.

Never mind the fact that the singer himself is black, as well as her boyfriend who accompanied her to the concert.

TA at oversensitive people who seek out offense in the most innocent of situations.
Her career shouldn’t be ruined over this.

It's ridiculous but not surprising. A woman in the UK was convicted of a racist hate crime for posting rap lyrics containing the N word in tribute to a 13 year old who died in a road accident :rolleyes: The glory days of The Empire are well and truly over!

Flaccus

1. Imbeciles that have no sense of their surroundings :
e.g. walking straight out of a shop into your path, usually with phone stuck to their face. Bonus points if they do it walking backwards.
getting off the top/bottom of an escalator and just standing there while talking on the phone with 10 other people are piling up behind.

2. Imbeciles who don't know what personal space is :
e.g. standing too close to you at the atm or bus stop

3. Morons who think it's a good idea to get on a virtually empty bus and decide to sit beside you for "the chat". Plonker this morning followed
me to the back of the bus and reckoned the back is the best place to be as you get a longer spin !!!

4. People who insist on using their speaker phone usually in restaurants and public transport. Seems to be mostly Indians that do this, so I wonder if it's a cultural thing, seeing as in Japan this behavior is frowned on.

5. Idiots that talk really loud on the phone and louder as the conversation progresses. Again I have observed this to be mainly Africans as it seems to be the thing to do to get someones attention (an African guy told me this). Still bugs me.

None of the times for Captain Marvel in my local cinema suit me tonight.

Bredabe

Chung wan in class telling me how she worked her ass off and pulled together(with her fam's help) a deposit for a house for her and her child.
She asked me outright how privileged did I think I was not working to buy a house of my own when they were affordable for a single administrator, I was so shocked someone would ask an almost complete stranger something like that, that I told her that I had to help my parents pay off their mortgage(not my complete truth, but the truth of a lot of ppl I know).

She rolled her eyes at me and screamed out, 'How stupid were your parents, not to be able to pay their own mortgage'? 'I wouldn't do that for mine', the only guy in the group told her it wasn't that uncommon pre boom, only for she fancies him, she would have screamed at him too.

TA at ppl who think its ok to talk like this to others like that and how blind ppl are to their good fortune.
Ta2, that it still upsets me even after the long walk back.

TA'd that it too me a minute to realise that Brebabe was not talking about a chinese person.

Lot of anger there.....

People trying to hug me. When did this all start?? It never happened when i was young. Do you remember your parents hugging all their friends in the eighties or nineties?

Email saying we will not be progressing your application further. Not trivial but very annoying.

Were they American?

People who are always losing their keys. Just had an hour-long search for keys belonging to a man who I've always thought is in early stage Alzheimer's but then his wife tells me 'He's been like this for 40 years'.

And where were they? In an inside, inside pocket on the coat he was wearing all the time while we tore the house asunder. There must be something invented, that he can't lose, for this!

Sounds like my father.
He generally thinks they are stolen.
