The "i dont understand it when...." Thread

I don't understand people who value material possessions more than happiness and experiences.

 

Material possessions !== happiness

You've changed man you've changed.

Good to see you've renounced the Dark Side, Lav.

Peoples obsseion with their phone. It's pretty sad that something that after all is just a technical device has become the center of the lives of millions of people.

 

They spend all their time trying to record the moment, they're not experiencing the moment any more.

Women who drive massive 4x4's to drive their kids around in.

 

People who don't eat meat.

 

People who don't like dogs.

 

People who order carling in a pub that sells good beer.

 

Top knots.

 

People who don't appreciate man v food.

 

Tim Lovejoy's bald head.

Yes this!

So many times I look at the title and get confused. All the links are clearly about us so the title makes no sense.

The "others talking about us thread" Maybe? :dunno:

It's jocular.  I bet you're fun at parties.

People, who don't have large families, but drive big 4x4s in a city.

 

Why?

 

Have you never driven a 4x4? :unsure:

I don't understand why everyone on Facebook this year seems unable to string more than 3 words together without having a picture of a fvcking minion next to it :/

They can't handle that well since in my experience 9 out of 10 drivers can't even keep in lane when turning them or fit them at the side of the road when parking.   Just this morning on a perfectly straight stretch of empty street I passed one whose owner still hadn't managed to get it lined up with the kerb, instead leaving it jutting awkwardly into the road.  

 

Imo there should be a separate test you have to pass if you want to drive a vehicle that large because average people clearly have difficulty coping.

it's hot and sunny.

 

T-shirt

Shorts

Why a woolly bobble hat?

 

2 things

 

It's hot - you dont need the woolly hat - sun hat, baseball cap maybe but bobble hat - no.

 

Also - you're a grown man/woman.  Bobble hats look ludicrous on anyone over the age of 5.

Newspapers reporting incidents as "alleged" even if there is very clear video evidence of the act in question embedded into the very same article, yet the same papers will go on to make outlandish speculation about which players we might be signing as though it's an unequivocal truth.

As in, is it us they're talking about? Seems fairly straightforward.

But why are we asking that question?

It should be for me do they HATE us? Rather than mean. Of course they mean us it's a bloody thread on an oppo forum (usually Watford or sunderland) about us

Yep this, anybody that went to the lcfc champions celebration in town would know that almost everybody was filming the whole thing on a phone.. Including the players.

I actually remember looking back at the situation at the time and thinking, what the fvck are we doing? Basically filming other people filming! lol

The implication is that non-Leicester fans talking about Leicester are probably talking nonsense, hence when we read their comments we don't fully recognise the fact that they're talking about us and have to ask 'do they mean us'.

 

At least that's the way I see it

It's all about the gratification gained from showing other people that you've been somewhere or done something rather than the pleasure gained from actually doing it. So there's no point going somewhere if you can't show other people that you've been there. I'm not sure if this is a modern phenomenon though, perhaps the social media age has just made it so much more obvious.

Because they don't have four kids andtherefore  probably can afford one.

 

I'm not talking about affordability. I just hate this obsession with big-flashy 4x4 cars, to look cool, in built up urban areas. Hence, "I don't understand why people have 4x4s in an urban area".

 

It seems pointless having these big cars in the city when you'd get from A to B cheaper and in the same time with, I dunno a Hyundai i20.

 

But hey, guess we live in that age where everybody HAS to have pointless items such as the "latest iPhone" to show off.  :rolleyes:

 

Selfie Sticks, on the other hand ... Looks great when you're at the top of Machu Picchu, not so great outside your house.

most people buy material possessions because they make them happy 

 

Yeah when I get some brand new material possessions I feel happier

 

True and I agree.

 

You've changed man you've changed.

 

How lol ?

 

Good to see you've renounced the Dark Side, Lav.

 

Not sure I get your drift

 

How pointless would working 50 hours a week be if you didn't have any material possessions to show for it

I'd just quit life

 

I know what you are saying

....why companies employ people for their customer, technical, account query services that haven't got a ****ing clue it just helps me to decide to use someone else.

I'd have the dirtiest nastiest most beat-up fuel-wasting 4x4 over a Hyundai. Knew someone who owned a Hyundai, not only did he lose about 80% of the car's value over 2 years he also had to be seen driving a Hyundai for 2 years
