What grinds my gears...

People who go to events and film the whole thing on their mobile grind my gears, but worse now are those that go and film it in selfie mode, looking away from what's happening and into their phone. Saw a couple this weekend on facebook of people who went to see the cycling, with Geriant Thomas, go through West Bridgford. As he rode past they'd filmed it whilst they were looking away from the cyclists and into their phone. Your missing the actual thing you went there to see, you're not even looking. You're gonna see it the same way I will now, on video, but you were stupid enough to travel there to only see it via video. At least if you just film it normal mode you can still watch properly too.

Rude delivery people.

Was delivered a parcel, which I requested to be re-delivered a few days ago as I wouldn't be in on their initial delivery date schedule. Got told that don't waste time like you did with me last time and stay in when your parcel is set to arrive to the address.

A day late, but hope you had a good one, Matt. I don't use Facebook, but when the time comes, I will donate myself, and someone can have a nice Tiger skin rug . :rolleyes:

Delivery companies moaning about wasting time? Because "your parcel will be delivered between 7am and 10pm" is a perfectly reasonable amount of time to ask people to hang about for a parcel that probably will just get lobbed over your back gate anyway.

moving house and cancelling bills and all that. fu cking hell c unts like energy suppliers etc make it hard work to tell them to just fu ck off cos you don't need their services anymore. 

 

tv licence, too. and council tax. why is there not an option to just cancel the bills? I don't need a tv licence anymore cos i'm moving into a house that's got one and there is literally no option to cancel your account, no email contact, no live chat or anything. council tax is the same. and they all keep charging me even though I left 3 weeks ago. 

 

blurts.

All of it is a right farce, especially doing it yearly moving to a different student house. They don't seem to understand you want to leave and just be done woth them

 

For TV license, you have to contact them via the "contact us" form saying you want to cancel:

Links there if you were struggling to find it

Telling you we are ****ing doomed. Social media has turned 2/3 of the world into narcissistic *****.

Stuff like this, pundits saying mental fatigue exists and that we peasants don't understand about it. Guarantee most on this forum have had more mental fatigue than she has.

Yeah I heard that last night, and the two Jamie's were agreeing. The really annoying part is that some other players wouldn't get these excuses made for them. Vardy had a quiet game for England and was pulled apart by the pundits. 

 

Kane's out of form, he's not playing well, the pundits should just admit it and move on. It really pisses me off, I listen to these ex players for an incite into the game, and they just tow the popular line. Some players are untouchable, and some can do no right, and the narrative rarely changes. Alli was awful at the world cup, maybe he was injured, maybe he was out of form, but nobody dared mention it. I just wished they say it like it is rather than skirting round the issue probably because they've talked someone up as the second coming of Pele after two games and if they criticise at all they'll look foolish.

The latest nationwide ad featuring the couple in the photo booth.

 

I'm sure they make these adverts as irritating as possible.

Any Go Compare advert - have to put the TV on mute when they come. 

 

Admiral Multi-Cover ones are terrible but I find the Mrs Admiral strangely attractive.
