Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

Just read on the beeb that the CPS in London were giving a one-off payment to staff that had managed to go into work when it was snowing.

Do nurses/gritters/other public servants get a payment?

Sorry, but the place is now going to hell in a handcart...

In order of your questions.

No

Yes

The same guy who said "Listen, Chic, I'm telling you it's not that Celtic are better than Rangers, it's that Rangers are worse than Celtic"? :unsure: - or what that another special?

Probably, when he said where he was from i thought "oh thats nice, a saints fan has phoned in". As soon as he said he was a rangers fan i stopped listening.

I hate those auchterarder scum. :angry:

A bought a packet of habanero crisps today expecting something hot but not painful, but in fact five minutes after eating four of these crisps my eyes are watering and my tongue is burning. Fair play to the crisp manufacturer for making the first truly hot crisp I've had in my life but it's actually not very pleasant, so I won't be getting them again.

"Blair's Death Rain" brand, from yon Mexican/Spanish/American deli on Great Western Road. Can't remember the name, googling... aye, it's called Lupe Pintos:

I was in for some chipotles and jarred queso and other things and these caught my eye.

Fuckin Glasgow Subway :angry:

At St Enoch station at about 2 o clock, I approach the ticket desk.

"Return to St George's Cross please

"£2.40"

Hand over cash,

Ticket dispensed

"Cheers mate".

So off I go to Firhill, come back after the game and get my ticket out and I put it through the slot in the barrier. I attempt to walk through the turnstyle and whack straight into it, it hasn't moved. Red words flash saying "please seek assistance". So after trying a couple more times I say to the desk

"Hi excuse me, my ticket's not working"

"Let's see it....this is a single"

"How can it be I asked for a return?"

"This is a single, purchased from St Enoch"

"But I asked for a return and was charged for one"

Cue look of 'f**k all we can want to do about it'. Despite my protestations that I'd been overcharged they weren't having it, and said I had to pay for a single again. The most infuriating part was one of the guy's faces - the most purile, smug look you'll ever see on his fat specky face. c**t. So I'm out another £1.20 just to go 3 stops. I know you'll give me the "you should've checked the ticket" routine but why should I? I expect to be given the right ticket and not be overcharged 100%. Could they not see I went to use the ticket to get through and hurting myself in the process when the barrier didn't work? Why would I do that if I hadn't purchased a return ticket? c***s.

That is all, I feel better now :)

Why didn't you just walk???

Firhill to St. Enoch is 30 mins tops. a nice wee stroll would do you the world of good and you wouldn't need to mix with the **** on the subway.

Feel sorry for you RE the ticket scenario.

my PTTGOYN: 4 more months til the next episode of Dr. Who :(

The idiots that call into football radio shows. The ones that have been on so far have sounded like they are pissed and or drugged up junkies. :rolleyes:

Listened to the phone in on the way down from Arbroath.

Loved the Irish boy who was an utter mongo.

Irish Mongo: "It's a disgrace that Ferguson and McGregor have been banned for life from the Rangers team!"

Chick Young: "Eh, no they haven't, they've been banned from the Scotland team."

Irish Mongo: "Oh...I thought it was Rangers...."

:lol:

:wacko::1eye
