My in-laws have moved from Seattle to Arizona and have done nothing but complain about the heat since they got there. Who would have thought Arizona would be hot in the summer?

"But it's a dry heat"

I went for a six mile walk over there once. I made it a mile and a half, collapsed with heatstroke, and spent several days horizontal having fever dreams.

I met a guy from Phoenix who told me the heat didn't bother him, he had air conditioning in his garages at home and at work, and naturally in his home and car.

Dundee is full of golf c***s.

A few years ago the train i was on from Kirkcaldy to Aberdeen picked up a load of shitfaced golf watching people at leuchars. They got off at Dundee after realising it was the opposite way from their hotel in Embra and that there were no more trains. 

I hope the people of Dundee were hospitable.

I love watching golf, but agree that there is a significant number of fans of the sport that are insufferable cretins.

Golfers as well. I don't play, so not guilty by non-association on that front at least.

Some years ago, as i recall, some guy advertised "50 cigarette lighters" for sale on Ebay.  A willing buyer sent the requested £30 and received . . . . . . . .  . . .

The wife’s started with a tiny little crack but left over time, it’s now developed into something massive.

I’ve booked her in for Thursday.

Aye they've got AC in the house and car, but still moaning about the heat. I just don't know why they're surprised at the temperature.

ATM's charge for transactions.  If you view your balance that's a separate transaction to withdrawing cash and therefore more revenue for the ATM operator.  Even when you select the option to withdraw cash only you'll always get asked "DO you want to check your balance, free service".

People that stand too close to others, just back from the local shop where I could feel Shamu behind me breathing down my neck whilst in the queue.

Once, fair enough. I'm hardly likely to have changed my mind by the second or third time.

Any c**t with a brain hates golfer fans, especially the yank style.

But if us Scot (like me) have brain, they can rent there house out for 1 week for crazy money during the open, staying at th MiL/brother/friends  for 3 grand can't be that bad. 

Skin them while there here.
