Phone ads are becoming so stupid. When people receive their new phone, the latest model they always look like they are about to cream themselves :rolleyes:


You have Kevin Bacon crying and there is an ad with a father and daughter where they start dancing with joy when his new phone arrives, he even holds it up to the sky cradled in both hands like an offering to God (although they have cut that bit out now).
Speaking of : there was a phone ad a while ago where 'phones are God' flashed up on screen.
Get a fecking grip.
TA also at those nincompoops who have to update to the new iphone straight away as soon as it comes out :mad:

Emmm... Don't carry cash.. Because its 2020... And contactless is preferable if you don't want to transmit a virus.

TA a printing shop today. 50c to print a postage label... Gave my card to pay - oh if pay by card it's €1. Opportunist gangsters.

Oh god, my annoying friend is like that. Used to turn up for pints after work with his lanyard on display. The latest is he apparently worked so much overtime last month he "almost fainted", as told to me by a mutual friend..so, when he eventually got in touch with me I deliberately told him the shítfest that has been my life for the last while... And he says, "mmm, yea yeah, that's terrible. So, I nearly fainted last week because I worked so much". God why does he wear something like that as a badge of honour? More like a badge of pushover.

TA my body is falling apart. I have pain in very joint. Wtf is wrong with me.

Edit and on the cash thing, OH has gone all "cash is trash" too, to the point that he refused 200 euro that I owed him, because I offered him four fifties. Grand so, suits me

"Well we are all fed up of the lockdown but..." makes me more fed up than the lockdown itself.

There's a whole Thread on its own - "The Uselessness of 'Crimecall' "

*Showing stuff/ stealing that happened last winter.
*Rubbish CCTV stills - acceptable if the cameras are poor; but some of them are almost crystal clear, yet the CCTV image of the 'alleged perp/s' is as often as not crap. :mad:

To mention just 2

My TA, and its similar - In the local 'Valuesavers' to me; up to about 3-4 years ago they had a 'Wall of Shame' - plenty of photos of 'customers' I guess, that they would rather not have :pac:

Been a while since I was in there, and unless things have changed - that Wall of Shame is long gone :cool:

TA at when I wake up early with not enough sleep - at this time of the year, it's like I have to 'endure' twice the amount of hours I missed out on.

That is, if I wake up at 5 with about 4-5 hours sleep, with it being so dark it's like waking up at that time in Summer with 3 hrs, or less.

I'll probably be wrecked at 4 or 5 in the PM - a similar scenario in Summer I'd be good till 9 or 10 I reckon.

Scammers/scummers. They are the dregs of society, targeting the most vulnerable people.

They have a phone scam now where they tell you that you have been in close contact with someone who has covid. Who is it? Sorry, can't tell you, privacy issues.
We will send you a test straight away but it's €50, your credit card details please. No time to lose!
Then the horrible cúnts empty your account.
Don't talk about emails, I'm getting crap from scammers on a regular basis. Never mind the old Nigerian prince routine, now you can get professional looking emails or letters from the HSE, AGS, DSW, your bank, any state body really, all looking for your card details.
Oh It really gets my goat just thinking of all the people they have tricked :mad:

There is a company in Hungary that scan the European trade mark registry, they then sent out invoices to put your trade mark on their database.
It's usually for 2 - 3 grand .
Thing is, there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to be on their database (if it exists). They are just hoping that some clerk will see an invoice related to a recent trade mark application and pay it.
I suspect that what they are doing isn't illegal :mad:

I heard some bloke tried to patent 21th Century Fox back in the 70s, or 80s - Don't know if he had any joy - could be apocryphal I suppose

I knew someone on Crimewatch UK once, but it was a relative who worked for the BBC and was taking the calls so I don't suppose that counts.

Banks that won't let me lodge a bank draft to one of their accounts(a business a/c) because 'they can't trace it'
It's a cheque! there is paperwork all the way to prove its origins.

Ta being negated as a customer b/c I can't do internet banking.
