MacDuffman Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Women in shops etc asking if you have a 'wee' Iceland Card, or a 'wee' Co-op Card. Also when you go to pay for your goods its 'pop your wee Bank Card in the machine' Why is everything 'wee' Even had one asking me today if I have a 'wee' phone number so she can phone me back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 People that say "enter your PIN number" when the N stands for number. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Pete Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 People that say "enter your PIN number" when the N stands for number. Aye but if they said "enter your PI number" then everyone would have the same code (3.141). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 People who have noses that seem to grow straight from their forehead, with no gap at all. Infuriating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev23 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Starting work at 6 tomorrow, and for the foreseeable future, meaning I'll need to wake up about 4.30-4.45. This hurts. The bright side is I will be finished at 3 but I'll end up just sleeping anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 The display devoted only to the Army in the waiting area of the jobcentre. Preying on the desperate. Last time I was unemployed, you could always tell the Army jobs at the Jobcentre because they were the only ones that sounded decent, and they made absolutely no reference to the Armed Forces whatsoever. The advisors didn't even bother mentioning it when you went up with your wee pile of printouts; they'd just chuck the Army ones straight in the bin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capybara Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Try colouring in with felt pens. Much better fun. But remember to stay within the lines. Bugger . I think will stick to fuzzy felts.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 What like? Keeper of Her Majesty's War Donkeys or Arrow Sharpener? Job titles like that might have given the game away a wee bit. Frankly, I'd have applied for either of those jobs. Keeper of the War Donkeys? Minted 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around the time GW Bush invaded Iraq, there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth over here from the numpties who'd joined the US Military for the promise of glamour and benefits but genuinely hadn't realised they might have to...you know...go to war and stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness to them, it's the only route to higher education for a lot of folks. Met a lot of people who you'd never expect to have been in the armed forces in a million years, and they only were to try and avoid the minimum wage, zero healthcare nightmare (unsuccessfully, in some cases). That, and the recruiters go all out to minimise the potential chances of being involved in armed conflict. Silly, I know, but it's amazing what desperate folk will rationalise to themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Not sure if this is widespread, but I've just seen BOGOF deals referred to as BOGO on a US website. Hoping this isn't another 'could care less' style mistranslation by people who don't think about what they're saying. Buy One, Get One? Fucking cracking deal, that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All true. That and the fact that for too many people the options are drugs, jail, drugs and jail or the military. I just find it funny-sad that there are people who joined something called "The army" and didn't realise what it is armies do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambie's Pigeon Feed Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 The British Army are recruiting now, as confirmed by a billboard with a camouflaged c**t pointing a big rifle at your coupon in every Subway station I Glasgow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ginger Prince Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 The fact that I have successfully managed to move all my stuff up from Essex back to Edinburgh in one day but somehow managed to lose my charger for my new MacBook. Could be a heads gone contender with this as I am utter fucking raging. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarley Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) PC has started beeping when turned on.

JamboMikey Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Played 5s the night and 3 of the boys I ended up with in my team would have trouble trapping a wet bag of cement. Been overly raging about it for about 2 hours. Was flailing my arms about and spraying high velocity profanities like an extra irate Michael Stewart. I'm a dick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
