Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...

I found a photo a couple of years back whilst clearing out my old boys house. It was me at New Year, clearly drunk (an unspecified drink in hand) wearing my Seafield Primary school jacket.  The badge had been removed so I was probably first year at high school at the time.

Being asked if I want to "round up" to the nearest pound for "charity" at the Tesco self-service checkout.

No. No I do not.

Sort it out @G_Man1985.

I was coming on here to post the same thing, It’s really irritating. I hadn’t realised it was temporary till I read this thread, so that makes it a bit better.

Went to a place in portobello for a meal tonight, they are doing food and soft drinks for free on a Thursday, but there is an "honesty box" where the money goes to a homeless foodbank charity, and about 20 mins before we went in, some absolute fucking lowlife stole the box,  with nearly £500 in it.  Fucking scummy c***s.

When charity collection boxes have to be chained down at counters it sums up the kind of country we live in. Absolutely no excuse for this c**t's actions but I'm saddened by the naivety of the company as well if they didn't have it 'nailed down'. I expect they'll make a donation regardless.

That’s dreadful, how low can you get?

Sit in a Sheriff Court one day (when they reopen) and you'll learn addicts will steal anything that isn't nailed down.

A lawyer pal represented a guy who nicked 50 packets of tights- it was just the first thing he grabbed before skedaddling

Was it sheer luck that they caught him??

I was at my mates' wedding in St Andrews church in Glasgow and a junkie came in and stole the collection box at the front door and ran off.  Fortunately I gave f**k all so I wasn't guilty of subsidising the heroin trade.

I can't find it online but I think it was Anthony Bourdain who said "A heroin addict will steal your TV then try to make you feel guilty for not giving it to them in the first place." They're simply thinking of nothing other than their next fix.

Maybe he was planning 100 bank raids.

They've just put the camera footage up. While I say the t was wrong, it was a bit of a silly place to leave it. That's right beside a Main walkway at porty. 
 
Two man job there. The crow did the spotting and sent in the mug to collect the prize.
