Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

I'd never heard of Flappy Bird, but I've since read that the Vietnamese developer who made it has pulled it cos he cant take the abuse he's been getting off addicted players, despite raking in £30k a day on advertising revenue.

I'd take a pain in the arse for £30k any day of the week.

hmmm....would the punters be willing to pay that though?

Hmmm. I've been thinking of the logistics of this. I'd need to charge £200 a shot, with a maximum time limit of 5 minutes. Assuming I work tricks for 12 hours a day, that would net £28,800 every day. So technically it's possible, but it would be a logistical nightmare. And I can only imagine the amount of paperwork and red-tape it would entail.

They all see to do it. Ssscotlind.

Try working in an office full of them. "The thing about Scotlind..." is a phrase I hear far too often.

Previously I would have slagged them off for their complete inability to pronounce 'loch' but after attempting to pronounce Zywiec (lager) in a Polish 'sklep' recently with the owner looking at me funny and saying it properly in a way I can't get close to, I'm willing to give the English a break over it.

One of my flat mates cooks his food then just puts the oven tray straight back into the oven without washing it or anything when he's done. Same boy also insists upon drying all his own plates which he does wash with kitchen roll rather than the towels which are clearly designed for that exact purpose then complains when we inevitably run out of kitchen roll. p***k.

Another one has a habit of bringing up the fact that we need to clean up then fucks off somewhere for a couple of hours immediately afterwards, or finding some excuse why he doesn't need to help with certain things. Another p***k.

I've got one of these vomiting bug things. That's bad enough, but I've also had a Jason Donnovan song stuck in my head all day.

Kill me now.

Symptom then cause imho

Dish towels are the biggest source of germs in the kitchen and it's more hygienic to use paper towels. ;)

Came in pished last night and put a password on my iPod and I can't remember what it is. :lol:

Haha that's excellent. I once came home hammered and wrote 1000 words for a report of already handed in. Don't remember doing it and don't know why. It's amazing the thought processes that go through our heads when drunk.

I remember coming in p1shed one night thinking my phone had been nicked - so I phoned vodafone to tell them.... The lassie told me the number I was reporting as being stolen was the number I was calling from !! WTF had I been drinking ? I think that was the same night I got barred from a pub in Surrey - The landlord ( an English guy ) told me his name was Gordon Strachen - I told him to get himself tae F..K - Obviously I thought he was taking the p1ss....... Turns out that WAS his name... D'Oh ! :oops
