  • FFS, when I was at Wembley on Tuesday, I put a sealed bid in on a framed signed Taylor Swift montage in a charity auction. Didn’t think too much about it as my bid wasn’t that much higher than the starting point but just had an email to say I’d won it for £650.

    Can’t even hide the amount from my wife as I’d mistakenly autofilled the joint account details when I was registering it on my phone.
    Very good 🤣

    Just to be clear, is the “general thing that annoys you” your incompetence with money or your taste in music?
    😉
    My financial incompetence and my daughter’s taste in music!

    Does the picture have some of those clear tear off sheets like they have on F1 visors?
  • The widespread inability on here to distinguish between Ladapo and Lapado. 
    I know he hasn't been very good for us, but really!

    Tradies who confirm five days in advance that they'll start the week long job and on the day simply don't turn up. Then when you message politely to find out when they expect to arrive the WhatsApp ticks go blue fast but then there is no reply all day. The last appointment was postponed because the main man was in hospital with COVID. Allegedly. And this is an urgent job, which they well know.

    The happy development is that I immediately found an alternative and more professional sounding outfit, recommended by an independent third party tradesman, who can come and do the job next week for a little bit less.

    I now await a feeble excuse phone call from the useless ones, which I will ignore, before slating them on checkatrade once the job is done. Pricks.
    I will never understand why independent builders or any tradesman persistently do this. So many blokes I know are in this game and will moan to anyone who will listen about cash flow and customers, and they will be pushing themselves on Facebook etc yet will do stuff like this and invariably get shirty when pulled about whatever bullshit excuse they give.
  • Supposed NHD dentists, specifically the ones that are also private. They’re constantly trying to upsell shit whether it be “do you grind your teeth? It looks like you could do with a mouth guard”. I wouldn’t mind but they struggle to do the basics these days. 

    I had a filling a month ago, didn’t even know I needed one as I had no pain or discomfort whatsoever. Now since I’ve had it done I can’t eat anything remotely cold. Went back two weeks ago and she gave me some waffle about my gums and told me to use Sensodyne enamel repair and if it was still an issue come back in two weeks.

    Yesterday was two weeks and I had the day off, came out the gym and had a message saying they’ve had to postpone it and to ring for another appointment. Of course no one ever answers the phone so they. 
  • That Brain Damage and Eclipse by Pink Floyd are named and catalogued as two songs. You can't have one without the other it should be named and digitised accordingly.
  • Chelsea fans calling them “The Chels”.Seems like a recent thing.

    How recent? Mate I worked with about twenty-five years ago called them that, buckshee.

    Yeah it might have gone quiet in the last decade or so but the chels was always a common term

    Fair enough, still annoying as fuck though.

    Now that I completely agree with 

    Funnily enough I was out with a mate of mine who can be put into the box of proper Chelsea supporter and his mind is blown by their supporters who essentially only know supporting Chelsea since they win shit so now they are having their own minds blown. Which is another reason why our younger support and away support now is so good and amazes me as the traditional away regular is late teens but really 22-32 as being the best years to be unattached and have some dollar and all they have seen is barring 2 seasons a bag of shit. At least those of us in our forties now got the Premier league era and at a time when it was relatively affordable

  • People walking 2 or 3 abreast along the pavement and expect you to move off the pavement. I don’t know if this is a European trait like not queuing at bus stops or like Indians trying to board a packed tube when people are trying to get off (experienced this many times in India). Grrrrrrrr!

    Northern Portuguese do this when they come on holiday down here in summer, then grumble at you if they bump into you. The solution is to stop and stand still, they then walk around you and if they brush against you it's their fault. It works a treat.

  • my car tax renews on 1 May
    every year the reminder from DVLA arrives mid April - fair enough
    But every 1 April the RFL tariffs are increased
    The reminder issued mid April is always out of date, quoting the RFL pre-increase, weeks after that increase has been announced
    WTaF?
