luckyBatistuta Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 People who take clothes off the rails in shops to look and then put them back in the wrong place. It is annoying to see something you are looking for only to discover it is extra small instead of extra large and it is the last one in stock !Don't go to TK Maxx, that's how they stock the rails. Your right though, just laziness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Sounds just like my wife. Goes radge when 'things aren't in the place they should be' but that doesn't seem to apply to: . Cups of tea or coffee found lying anywhere you'd care to mention around the house. Kind of related.... I make the breakfast and bring it up to the bedroom virtually everyday of the week. Sometimes I'll get home and the empty plates and cups are still in the bedroom! Now, I know she's off out working, and won't be back until later, but FFS!!! You had to go down the stairs and leave the bedroom to get out! And obviously the teabag of whatever type of poncy tea is still in the cup, with a good mouthful of it left. Whilst I'm on the subject, when she does the dishes, why does she let things steep? She'll wash all the pots etc but leaves the cutlery then stops doing the dishes, so there isn't any cutlery! Everyone knows you fill the sink, do your glasses and cups first, then plates, then cutlery then greasy pots/pans etc. Jeez! I'm marrying her in September...

Stuart Lyon Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Boris - you have my sympathy! My wife manages (sometimes) to bring her dishes down to the kitchen but putting them in the dishwasher seems to be a step too far! She also uses lots and lots of paper hankies but a few of them never reach the bins. I say to her that of she ever goes missing I will just follow the paper hankie trail to find her.

3fingersreid Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Also SCUMAnother driving related. What is it with people, that they can't understand what to do when an emergency vehicle is coming with siren and lights on, it's not complicated. If they're not swerving in front of it in a panic, they sit at a red light refusing to move to let it through, even though nothing is coming. Move you idiot, you could cost someone their life. Whilst I fully agree with you see if that situation arises when you're at a set of lights with a traffic light camera can you get done if the camera flashes and photographs you going thru a red light just clearing the road for the ambulance ?

Craig Gordons Gloves Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 When you are taking your in-laws to the airport for a 7.10 flight to DC so you say to them - "we'll leave at 5.15, that'll get us there by 6" and go and set your alarm for 5am only to be woken up by the mother in law making a cup of coffee at 4.15am. Why ffs?? Wakes up the puppy, which in turn wakes up the kids, which i then have to shuffle back to bed and take the dog out for a piss - all 45 mins before i was due to wake up. It's alright for them, they get 2 hours to kip on the plane, i have to go to work after dropping them off. I've been in work for 3 hours and it's not even 9am.

I then go to the match, meet with the lads, have a pint and then go home to my steak pie dinner. I walk in and the house is in darkness, shes been at the bloody shops in Livingstone or whatever and hasn't even bought the bloody steak pie.

peter_hmfc Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Ticket touts and resell sites. Utter scum, buying tickets for events purely to sell them on at a profit/rip folk off. I tried to buy a ticket to see Depeche Mode at the Barrowlands for about ?35, but they were sold out in minutes. That's understandable as the venue holds around 2,000, but tickets were apparently being resold online for around ?250, some as high as ?500 and ?700. I don't know why it's so hard to just regulate the site that selling prices can't exceed the price paid or face value, although I suppose given these sites make money on commission they'd be signing away their own profits. Depeche Mode are my favourite band, but one thing I hate is that if I managed to get a ticket for ?35 and knew I could sell it for ?500, I'd be ever so slightly tempted . I'll take all criticism and accusations of hypocrisy for that though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The touts are stopping thousands of folk from being able to use that service and then charging them multiple times the price for exactly the same product. You could say they're offering an opportunity for those that missed out, at a price that reflects the demand. That's obviously setting aside the dodgy mass ticket buying process they go through which itself helps make the tickets limited. One thing to remember though, and it's the key to it all. Something is only worth what someone else is willing to pay for it. If people stop paying more than face value to these arseholes then they would disappear overnight. As long as folk continue to buy from them then they are indeed offering a service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
