Re: I've had enough of........ new

Posted by: atila the gooner Today, 04:25PM



I've had enough of complaining about things or issues when I know full well that my complaining makes not a jot of difference, nor will it change things. What a rubbish way to approach the weekend.

==============================================================================


atila - for once we might be in agreement ;-)

I've got one.


You're at the bar for 5+ minutes, someone comes up next to you, and get served straight away, and doesn't point out that you were first.


I hate that so much, I always say if someone was there before me! I hate it even more when you've got some young dumb and full of cum bloke behind the bar who will just ignore you blatantly and serve all the women who come to the bar! Grrrr!!!


Another thing that annoys me is that I usually just stand there and keep waiting without saying anything. Once it p!ssed me off so much I kicked off about it, got served first, and almost had a punch up... It felt great!

I'm with you Keef. Bar etiquette was something about this country that made me so proud, and it's vanishing.

I understood if I was forced to meet a mate down an all bar one full of t0ssp0t lawyers waving ?50 notes in a bid to queue jump, down holborn or something, but these days it's spread out from there, even as far as the territories (herts, beds etc)

Completely agree with you, but I kick off if someone even steps in front of me in a bus queue too, standing at the bus stop and some tw@t comes and stands right in front of you like you're invisible! and doesn't even glance at the huge queue thats been waiting for the bus for the past 10 mins, it usually commences with "there is a queue you know, we're not all waiting here for the good of our health!" If they refuse to move, which is usually really rare in my circumstances, I just barge infront of them and make sure that I am in front of them, sod everyone else in the queue (usually huge rugby sized geezers) for not backing me or standing up to said tw@t!

Keef has submitted 3 things and all of them are top of my list


I would agree with LizzyGotDIzzy re: bus queues also except for the fact that in London most bus stops serve multiple routes - so there is never a single queue - just a bunch of people hoping theirs comes first. I used to try and queue but realised most of the people in front of me just back onto my toe when they realised it wasn't their bus


It's bad enough by Plough DiY but to b waiting at the southbound bus stop near the House of Fraser at Monument is MADNESS - and it's no fault of manners - just bad planning

1. England fans blaming the manager each time their team fails to get a decent result.


2. Local shops that just sell useless trinket things for filling homes with. Like comedy bread bins and coffee bean grinders


3. Indian call centres where whatever you ask them they still read from a script and fail to understand your problem.F***rs.


4. Little tw@ts in hoodies playing music on their mobiles on the bus. Get some f****ng headphones you twats.


5. Trendy acronyms : DKH, EDT, CPT, FHT etc. Boll0cks to them all.


6. Feeling like Clint Eastwood when I enter the CPT at the wrong time and the piano player stops playing/everyone stops talking. Drunk elderly black woman gives evil stare.


7. People talking about how lovely East Dulwich is. The park is lovely. The oysters are lovely. Use any other word but that.


8. Estate agents lying to me then pretending they havent I will meet you at heavens gate and watch you burn in the bowels of hell you parasites. That is if I havent tracked you down and gunned you down first.


9. Nigerian mini cab drivers adding ?2 onto the price quoted when I phoned then acting all suprised when I tell them.


10. Walworth road. On the bus. Depressing. I shut my eyes at Camberwell Green and only open them after Elephant and Castle.

People who put their feet on train seats..... seriously what's wrong with you?


The guy who gets on at East Dulwich train station with THE (sorry caps haters) loudest personal stereo, so loud I can stand 20 feet from him on the platform and still hear it. Is it a PA system or a personal stereo? Have some respect!


The day the last series of ER finished.


The gits who sit on my doorstep waiting for a bus, refuse to get off my doorstep then threaten me, then leave a pool of spit, they're half eaten burgers and a couple of fag ends just for good measure.


Bad spelling!


Oh and no-alcohol January! Why am I doing this to myself?

Women who wear high heels and can't walk in them. People who get to the front of the queue and THEN get their purses out, ditto with travelcards and Oyster cards. Tourists who stop in silly places to look at maps. People meandering down the middle of the pavement texting.
Good call on the bus queues - it always piques me when someone blatently, rather than simply ignorantly, pushes in front of others at the stop. However - if you want to renew your faith in human goodness and order, then go to Waterloo and look at the queues at the bus stops by the Imax roundabout: a heaving London station and everybody queues! Wow

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
