What grinds my gears...

[Fox42]

People who carry on driving with their indicator on.

Just trying to get out of a junction. No car's coming left, nice. Look right, and someone has their left indicator on, and at a slow speed (was near school so loads of people walking about), so I go for it. He just drives forward instead.

My Dad did that a few days ago. I can't remember when or where that was but it was due to poor navigation, thinking we should turn left but my brother informed him to go straight ahead instead. Apologies if that was him

I'll admit I did that to Kingfox last week, basically because he just kept spouting drivel about Dan Evans and Dean Hammond, then claimed he never said any of it despite there being posts to prove it, so I just gave up. I wouldn't normally but I find him hardwork.

eh, if you're referring to the animals rights thread there was no point continuing - I am right, we are supposed to eat meat (hence why it's recommended that vegans take supplements of lysine and possibly methionine due to the absence of it in purely herbivorous diets; hence why our appendix is the tiny, pointless little thing it is today: a relic from prior to our move to an omnivorous species) but if people won't accept the "it's part of a proper human diet" as reason to eat it, well I see no better reason and so no point continuing the discussion.

Helped my friend move in, needed the loo, sat down. Oh shit

It wasn't you that specifically motivated my comment, it is a regular occurrence though, when you are discussing something with someone and ask them a direct question and they ignore you, it is frustrating.

Maybe they've got work to do. Or they've gone on holiday. Or something else in their real life.

Not when you see them posting on other threads and ignoring your well thought out response, even more so when it is a thread they themselves have started.

Maybe people just tire of your incredibly out of touch champagne socialism

If that's the case then they ought to have the decency to say so on the thread involved rather than just randomly deserting it. 

 

But I guess just saying "screw you, you're an out of touch champagne socialist" doesn't really add gravity to ending an argument. Much like just saying "screw you, you're a out of touch selfish callous rightist".

[The Year Of The Fox]

People who want something for nothing.

I fixed my mates heating a couple of times, plumbed his dishwasher in when he moved. His hot water went last night. It's a faulty part on the boiler. Told him to ring our firm n theyll go sort it. Hes gone quiet as he was hoping I could do it (for free again)

That's a fair cop(per) for sure.

don't get me started on that please!

My point was hes lucky I'm a plumber n have bailed him out a few times. He wouldnt do the same if he was a car mechanic

[bovril]

Doesn't really grind my gears, more mildly irks me but..... saw a massive sign in King's Lynn today saying "now open six day's a week". I mean for fvck sake that is appalling.

This guy down the street has the same techno music blasting loudly in his car every time he's in it. I know when he's off to work, back from work. The same techno song everytime as well

Getting out of a 9am meeting at 2.48pm. OMFG that was long.

Did you get tea and biscuits?

[purpleronnie]

or a bj off a secretary with low self esteem?

[MooseBreath]

Did you get tea and biscuits?

Nope. Well people made rounds of coffee but there were no biscuits. The meeting was only supposed to last two hours so nobody even thought about refreshments. God knows why it overran for so long. Looking back it really makes no sense. Maybe I fell asleep, I don't know

Our receptionist is quite an old lady but funnily enough she is on holiday and has been replaced by a much younger temp. A lanky bit, kind of ratty looking but on good day you might get away with describing her as 'mousy'. Haven't had a chance to say hi yet but from the looks of her I'd say she almost definitely takes it up the arse. She's just has that way about her that screams I'm yours to what you want with, all you need to do is ask. So I reckon she's probably had a few helpings of pork sword from others in the building already this week. If I get a chance I'll take a shot at it.

Would have put three of my spare bedrooms on you replying to that.

[Dan]

I know a guy who twatted one of them Nigerian parking inspectors got away with it as well!

 

Not from Bongo Bongo Land then

Well, if you will insist on making yourself sound like a desperately undersexed, wannabe predator!!
