Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

This is very petty but when all the Royal death stuff was going on, Pars put out a Tweet saying how terribly sad everyone at East End was. Not being a fan of pomp and privilege, this annoyed me. They’ve often been a bit Rangersy with military stuff too and this was a final straw for me. Not been able to find any motivation to follow them since.
Queens put up a Union Jack flag* for our next home game and set it to half mast. Absolutely pathetic. I have never (thankfully) seen that flag at Palmerston in my life so someone must have went out and purchased the fucking thing. It's never appeared since either.

*Whatever the f**k it's official name is.

My favourite moment of that entire debacle was the guy tweeting a response to Aldi's official tweet of 'everyone at Aldi is sadden/expresses condolences' etc etc

He tweeted them directly with something along the lines of 'What a load of shite. I just asked Janosz on the checkout in your Musselburgh branch and he says he couldn't give a f**k'.

Exactly. If they’d posted the results of a scientific poll of all the club staff, players and directors and every single person had sworn they were “deeply saddened” then fair enough.

A few days ago I got a lecture from an American about how I “should” show more respect for Deid Liz. As he put it “She’s your Queen!”
 

Uhm, no. She isn’t. 

Being 250 years behind in his rent isn't respectful..

Folk who complain about video games being released as unfinished messes yet still continually paying full price for them. Likewise, complaining about microtransactions and pay to win mechanics yet still buying them.

Games companies repeatedly mug off customers and there's absolutely no reason for them to stop when said mug customers continue to reward the companies with millions of pounds/dollars/euros/yen/etc on a regular basis.

There's folk who buy the new FIFA every year like absolute mugs, even though it's basically the same game as the previous version just with updated teams and perhaps a small feature being different. EA have an excellent (for them) cash generating product that so many absolute mugs continually chuck cash at them for every single year. There's even some folk who buy consoles just to play it (i.e. they only play FIFA and no other games at all).
