Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

I'm seriously thinking about getting an Audi as my next car. Depends what lease deals are on at the time.

I always indicate.

Might let you off with it since you always indicate :)

 

People who don't indicate should have their vehicle removed and sent to the crushers yard.

If they are still inside Bonus!

You always indicate what an arsehole you are on here.

:lol:  

All you need is the car and your profile is complete.

Yeah I'd be an arsehole regardless of what sort of car I drove.

Did you all take part in that no indicating Sunday we just had?

What do you mean their was no such thing?

I drove less than 2 miles from my house to the supermarket and not 1 sod indicated at the various roundabouts and junctions.

Incredible scenes in my motor

This practice of having "Collections" for staff leaving an office. Has happened elsewhere, but my current work is about 80% female and it's beyond belief.

 

Latest one is a woman who sits opposite me, worked part time in an absolute cake walk of a job for some extra pocket money. Her husband pays for everything else whilst she galavants around playing golf and going out for her lunch. She's retiring in her early 50's.

 

I was getting growled at by the other office wenches for signing the card and not putting any money in, she's hardly fucking destitute. There's one doing the rounds every week.They'll then have a wee ceremony in the kitchen where she'll be presented with the card and her line manager will talk some nonsense about how much they'll miss her.

 

Why can't people just wrap up their affairs in a dignified manner, hand over to a colleague and leave quietly.

Same here. If someone is leaving that I don't like I don't put money in, but then I don't sign the card either, for I am not a shitebag. :P

I don't really dislike her or anything. Fair play to her being a massive freeloader and taking her mug husband for everything he's worth, but I'm rooked and she isn't.

I never get a "birthday whip around" because I never work on my birthday!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm also an intensely dislikeable MFAD

Indicating is for pussies

I've said it before and I'll say it again - I take immense pleasure from slowly pulling out in front of non-indicating fuckwits at roundabouts in an HGV and giving them the international sign language for "Nae luck ya dick, try using your indicator next time, cunto".

At my old work, the rule was that if you wanted cake on your birthday, you brought it, thus allowing anyone who didn't like you to avoid chipping in for a gift, and for you to make it clear who you didn't like by not offering them any. Generally worked fairly well, although I remember one guy who brought in a cake on his birthday and ate the whole thing himself. (Wasn't me, wish I had thought of it first though).

 

As for drivers who don't indicate, I drive a BMW and I indicate, the mrs drives an Audi and indicates, the arsehole next door drives a jaguar, and generally acts like a c*nt. Take from that what you will.

Do police give you an on the spot fine if they catch you not indicating like they do when you are caught without a seat belt?

I don't think it's actually a legal requirement to use your indicators, although depending on the situation, not using them could be considered careless or reckless driving

Well not wearing a seat belt isn't going to be the cause of the accident, it puts the driver at greater risk yes but it isn't a direct cause of accidents where as not indicating can be.

An indicator is by the meaning of the word an indication. You shouldn't trust any other driver to indicate, or even a driver who is indicating anyway. Plenty times people who do indicate leave them on afterwards by mistake. If you pull out to turn when a car is indicating, and try to blame them for it, you'll probably be told that it's your fault for not waiting until the road was clear.

The only conclusion that I can draw from that is that you live in a fairly affluent neighbourhood.

Are you his next door neighbour?

No. My immediate neighbours are a church and a small cottage. One thing I can say about the sky fairy fuckwits is that they make great neighbours; never a peep out of them. The guy in the cottage had a noisy dog which is a bone of contention (no pun intended).

That's why cats are better.
