Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

i went to see about a used car from a dealer in fife tonight. car is fine, test drive was fine and a few scratches here and there but nothing major. advertised for 3500 and in mind i was happy to pay 3k, so i started the chat at 2500. he just stood up and said ''nah mate that's an insult, this isn't the car for you. time to go''.

here's the car: http://www.z-carsales.co.uk/used_car_vauxh...tchback_169.htm

was i totally wrong? might phone him back tomorrow saying i don't want to haggle and 3k is fine. thoughts?

I assume you're quite young and he's basically treating you with contempt as he reckons you're not serious. If it was me, I'd take my money elsewhere - there's no shortage of dealers and most of them are desparate for sales at the moment.

Walk away.

Your opening "bid" was perfectly reasonable and if you can't get it for less than £3k, it's not worth bothering about.

Plenty of other fish in the sea.

Otherwise known as "baby crack" in parenting circles. Never tried it myself (Bonjela seems to do the trick for our wee man), but I know a lot of mothers that swear by it.

So that's what it is!

My mate was over with his wee boy and he said to me "Watch this" as he gave him some. The wee guy just looked totally spaced out and then fell asleep 5 minutes later.

Weans are hilarious.

Just stepped on a plug in my bare feet.. fucking sore and I now have the "three pins" thing engraved into the bottom of my foot.

Chicks dig scars. Just think up a cooler story than "yeah I got this standing on a plug". Something along the lines of "I got this whilst wrestling bears to save Balinese children from a fire up a mountain" should have the fanny rolling up to your door with their knickers in their handbag.

I keep feeling like I'm going to throw up. I've no idea why, but I keep getting these sickly feelings which last a few seconds, then I feel fine again. I've been like this since last night and it's really starting to piss me off.

And No, I'm not pregnant. The test was negative and I did two just to be on the safe side.

I'm feeling in a particular nostalgic mood tonight. Feels like my childhood just disappeared so quickly and I'll never have that time again. :(

<_< Aye, right! I feel for you, I really do! <_<

:lol::lol:looks for nearest three pin to unplug...

My money's on the punchbag getting the upper hand.

:lol::lol::lol: No fair on the lad. Although even I am taller than him! :rolleyes:

I didn't find it much use. But as you say others swear by it.
