Is it people at work who do this? Or friends? Or is it family?

 

You need to be more pacific.

Getting telly installed which obviously entails a few wires going around the outside of the house, guy tries to out them up right next to the existing wire for the auld bag upstairs to come down and say it's her property, were causing damage etc.

 

Swiftly told where to go

[Konrad von Carstein]

Probably (definitely) the wrong thread but getting the glad eye from a very attractive young lady in Jenners...us older guys like deluding ourselves...or so my wife says

[luckyBatistuta]

Folk getting in your taxi and telling you the score, even after you’ve told them you don’t want to know, as you’re recording it.

[BM1874]

Weed. And the people who smoke it (well those I have come across recently)

 

theres a house down the road that clearlY deal it and get away with it, but when the folk in it smoke it it wafts down the street and can smell it over a hundred metres away

 

the neighbours behind us also indulge and it comes through the open (or closed) window

 

just the smell and the arrogance of those around who use it, is just really getting on my wick.

generally it feels like wherever you go , you smell it

 

tollcross, princes st, chambers street, meadows, the gyle, almost anywhere in Edinburgh you go, it seems to have someone smoking weed.

 

 

 

 

not my own seethe but I can imagine my other neighbour will have this

 

his family have just moved in (wife and young daughter) and there 2nd day here th neighbours in all the other flats and houses on the back green decide to have a of drinking and food, but it’s 2225 and the music is blaring nightclub esque levels with singing and cackling 

right outside his back windows. In terms of first impressions i feel the wife won’t be happy (and don’t blame her)

 

and there are a few few of them who are buzzing any and every buzzer on the stair to get in to see the upstairs neighbours who have called it a night. Mine just went whoever it was already buzzed another (which cancels anything I can do) 

 

swiftly turned it on private for the night

What's your problem with 'the proof is in the pudding'? That to me is a wholly accepted abbreviation of the full phrase.

Over the past few years I've noticed that almost all my wife's nieces and nephews have a very slight American twang to their accent and they watch loads of those shows. Haven't caught any of them calling it soccer though thankfully.

The boy does have a slight twang as well which I thought was kind of inevitable...never thought he'd take it that far though

I work with a lot of young people and the americanisms do my head in. Saying ass instead of arse was bad enough but that's now moved onto butt. I've recently had an almost heart attack inducing rage attack when some little placement shitebag pronounced Z as zee.

Our neighbours over the back fence have a squeaky trampoline in their garden which the kids like to use every waking minute. The ***** were even bouncing about on it before school at 6am. Thinking of torching it.

 

 

Doesn't help that their wee boy cuts about in a manky purple Hibs' top most of the time.

It's usually some ignorant wankers in a BMW or an Audi....

I think it just be where I live. Walking the dog yesterday and I grabbed the dog to let two cyclists go by and not one of them said thanks. Male and female. I do live in a place where there are a lot if 'the goodlife ' types. What you tend to find though is that its usually Marjorie in Felicity's clothes. 

[@VladMagic]

Absolutely seething beyond belief!!

 

Went for a couple of cold ones at my local yesterday. Sitting outside in the glorious 27deg heat at about 3pm (hottest part of the day). Popped in to buy the round and when I got outside a couple had arrived with a gorgeous black lab. They were sitting a couple of tables across from us and I had to walk past them to get to where we were sitting.

 

I asked politely if I could say hello to their dog ( I am a dog owner myself) to which they replied yes. The dog was really agitated and would not come near me. He was looking in distress (tail curled down between back legs) so I crouched down to make myself look smaller. Some dogs see tall people as a threat so making yourself smaller puts them at ease. I then put my hand on the ground and literally nearly burnt it. The temperature of the ground was ridiculously hot!! I couldn't put my hand on it for more than a second.

 

I suggested they move the dog to a shaded area and told them to put their hands on the ground. Shock and embarrassment then followed as the women put her hand on the ground only to take it off a split second later.

 

If I hadn't done what I did the poor thing would have blistered its paws to raw!!!! 

 

Its not even rocket science. Hot sun, hot ground.

The fact that air-conditioning isn't really a thing in the UK. I know that the excuse is that we'd hardly ever use it, but we do get periods of hot weather in the UK, and we often hear "It's hotter than *insert hot country here*" in the news.

Literally just seen someone have a near miss with a daft cow in a white Audi queueing in traffic who was looking down on her phone, and didn't notice lights had changed to red and kept going forward. 

 

The Police will have you for speeding, but don't give a **** about catching these people, especially in town. How are you supposed to catch people doing it when there are never any Police on the street to see it?

We need to stop with the daft myth that it's never hot or sunny in the UK. It's like this for at least 4 months every year Folk kid on they enjoy it but really if you're working in an office it's hell.

It's bloody awful in Berkshire as well. I don't think the building I live in helps though, I was in similar temperatures out West at the weekend and it was cool inside at night. It's 15 degrees overnight here but it's still 28 inside.

Katherine Ryan is utter shite and an annoying prick as well.

 

She stunk up an entire series of Taskmaster (even Richard Osman was funnier and he is absolutely atrocious at comedy) and regularly shits all over otherwise good episodes of 8/10 Cats. Now she's ruining an episode of that new Richard Ayoade show.

 

A horrific attempt at comedy, truly horrific.
