They could be if they turned the heating down.

The staff in high street shops are a pain in the hoop as well. "can i help you there sir?" who needs help looking at stuff on shelves and carrying the chosen tat to a till? You don't get that shite in home bargains.

Maybe they've fingered you as a potential shoplifter.

myself and the wife got tailed by security, very, very, deliberately, conspicuously, through Harvey Nicholls in Embra. It must have been obvious we couldn't afford anything in there.

he never poked us though

I was in Stonehaven yesterday afternoon and the majority of shops were closed for Sunday (as opposed to closed down).  
If shop owners are taking half the weekend off (the only two days of the week that many/most people can manage) a week before Christmas then they have little right to whinge. 
 
These places also like to have a cheeky wee Tuesday or Wednesday off and shut at 3 pm.

Folk that get all upset if you say something like "fancy going for lunch, I'm starving", replying with "if you want to know what starving is then go to Ethiopia (blah blah blah blah blah)".

It's a figure of speech you imbeciles. 

Imagine calling people imbeciles.  If you want to see imbeciles...

A spaceman came travelling. The cover version with nina nesbit. When she goes to do the na, na, na bits. She takes a big massive audible deep breath. I understand that to do that song you require the lung capacity to do so, but surely we live in an age where there is technology that can cut that deep breath from the song.

Being mid transaction using an app or web portal and being interrupted by a pop up asking you to complete a user survey entitled something like ‘tell us how we’re doing’? or ‘are you enjoying using this app’?
It drives me f*ckin nuts. Let me at least complete what I came in here for first eh ffs!?? I realise cookies have their purpose, but don’t let it slow down the whole process. I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve just dropped an exchange if I’ve been unable to dump the survey immediately.

me and her have the same conversation everyday before she goes to work and at least 3 times in the evening.
"wheres my phone?"
"cant find it"
"can you call it please?"
"i cant hear it"

no you can't find it as its on silent. its always on silent!

that phone better be on silent as shes getting a good ride elsewhere!

A family argument has broken out and the old thing comes up that people who are unreasonable but obstinate end up getting their way because everyone wants to get along so placate them with apologies.  

Eventually you have to just say f*ck off, although with Christmas incoming that's unlikely.  Tsk.
