Re: I've had enough of........ new

Posted by: atila the gooner Today, 04:25PM



I've had enough of complaining about things or issues when I know full well that my complaining makes not a jot of difference, nor will it change things. What a rubbish way to approach the weekend.

==============================================================================


atila - for once we might be in agreement ;-)

I've got one.


You're at the bar for 5+ minutes, someone comes up next to you, and get served straight away, and doesn't point out that you were first.


I hate that so much, I always say if someone was there before me! I hate it even more when you've got some young dumb and full of cum bloke behind the bar who will just ignore you blatantly and serve all the women who come to the bar! Grrrr!!!


Another thing that annoys me is that I usually just stand there and keep waiting without saying anything. Once it p!ssed me off so much I kicked off about it, got served first, and almost had a punch up... It felt great!

I'm with you Keef. Bar etiquette was something about this country that made me so proud, and it's vanishing.

I understood if I was forced to meet a mate down an all bar one full of t0ssp0t lawyers waving ?50 notes in a bid to queue jump, down holborn or something, but these days it's spread out from there, even as far as the territories (herts, beds etc)

Completely agree with you, but I kick off if someone even steps in front of me in a bus queue too, standing at the bus stop and some tw@t comes and stands right in front of you like you're invisible! and doesn't even glance at the huge queue thats been waiting for the bus for the past 10 mins, it usually commences with "there is a queue you know, we're not all waiting here for the good of our health!" If they refuse to move, which is usually really rare in my circumstances, I just barge infront of them and make sure that I am in front of them, sod everyone else in the queue (usually huge rugby sized geezers) for not backing me or standing up to said tw@t!

Keef has submitted 3 things and all of them are top of my list


I would agree with LizzyGotDIzzy re: bus queues also except for the fact that in London most bus stops serve multiple routes - so there is never a single queue - just a bunch of people hoping theirs comes first. I used to try and queue but realised most of the people in front of me just back onto my toe when they realised it wasn't their bus


It's bad enough by Plough DiY but to b waiting at the southbound bus stop near the House of Fraser at Monument is MADNESS - and it's no fault of manners - just bad planning

1. England fans blaming the manager each time their team fails to get a decent result.


2. Local shops that just sell useless trinket things for filling homes with. Like comedy bread bins and coffee bean grinders


3. Indian call centres where whatever you ask them they still read from a script and fail to understand your problem.F***rs.


4. Little tw@ts in hoodies playing music on their mobiles on the bus. Get some f****ng headphones you twats.


5. Trendy acronyms : DKH, EDT, CPT, FHT etc. Boll0cks to them all.


6. Feeling like Clint Eastwood when I enter the CPT at the wrong time and the piano player stops playing/everyone stops talking. Drunk elderly black woman gives evil stare.


7. People talking about how lovely East Dulwich is. The park is lovely. The oysters are lovely. Use any other word but that.


8. Estate agents lying to me then pretending they havent I will meet you at heavens gate and watch you burn in the bowels of hell you parasites. That is if I havent tracked you down and gunned you down first.


9. Nigerian mini cab drivers adding ?2 onto the price quoted when I phoned then acting all suprised when I tell them.


10. Walworth road. On the bus. Depressing. I shut my eyes at Camberwell Green and only open them after Elephant and Castle.

People who put their feet on train seats..... seriously what's wrong with you?


The guy who gets on at East Dulwich train station with THE (sorry caps haters) loudest personal stereo, so loud I can stand 20 feet from him on the platform and still hear it. Is it a PA system or a personal stereo? Have some respect!


The day the last series of ER finished.


The gits who sit on my doorstep waiting for a bus, refuse to get off my doorstep then threaten me, then leave a pool of spit, they're half eaten burgers and a couple of fag ends just for good measure.


Bad spelling!


Oh and no-alcohol January! Why am I doing this to myself?

Women who wear high heels and can't walk in them. People who get to the front of the queue and THEN get their purses out, ditto with travelcards and Oyster cards. Tourists who stop in silly places to look at maps. People meandering down the middle of the pavement texting.
Good call on the bus queues - it always piques me when someone blatently, rather than simply ignorantly, pushes in front of others at the stop. However - if you want to renew your faith in human goodness and order, then go to Waterloo and look at the queues at the bus stops by the Imax roundabout: a heaving London station and everybody queues! Wow

    • And the Sainsbury’s own brand chocolate mini rolls have gone from £1.15 to £1.40 overnight, so 22%-ish. I prefer them them to the Cadbury original because they have a lot more chocolate on them, presumably because they’re made in a less advanced factory. I would think that getting the Rizla thin coating of chocolate that Cadbury’s accountants demand onto a piece of sponge is quite a sophisticated operation. Discuss.
    • Another recommendation for Leon. He was able to come out to our electrical elergency within 24 hours of me contacting him. His communication was great and whilst he could not solve our problem, he was able to perform tests to identify this and did so quickly and efficiently. He charging  is very fair and his manner very pleasant. Both of these in contrast to some experiences I have had elsewhere.    happy to put my name to recommending Leon. His number is  07707 925039.
    • Other than acting as 'interested parties' Southwark Councillors have no responsibility for water issues. And no real leverage either. Considering the complete disdain with which Thames Water treats its own Regulator, and the government, (let alone its customers) I doubt very much whether an entire battalion of councillors would have much impact. What powers could they exercise?
    • That may not be so - many on this site are experts in many areas - you yourself claim huge traffic management (or similar) expertise for instance. And I think you will find that Southwark employees are unlikely to support criticism or challenges to Southwark policy - why, you don't and you apparently neither live in, or vote in, the borough. Do you, however, work for it, as you are such a cheerleader? If not, then you are the most passionate disinterested person on this site, as regards so many aspects, not just traffic.
