I know excatly what you mean :)-D



stupid abbreviations annoy me ..... Mayo instead of Mayonaise ,and the use of ( sorry Cassius ) Air Con instead of Air Conditioning



and the use of the word Customers instead of Passengers



Also use of the word "Customer" in situations when you're not actually buying anything , I think the dole office have started using it , feckin idiots.


oh there was something else too .... can't remember it might come back to me in a minute .

The use of emoticons.

There are people I have repect for who use them, but are they not really just the devil's puntuation?

And not even the good devil implied in Rosemary's Baby, more like the shit one in To The Devil A Daughter.

If something is written and it's amusing, then we'll get it. If it's tongue in cheek, we might not. If it's obscure/esoteric/in-jokey then many may not get it.

Aaaand. Next post!

Why have something more irritating than canned laughter on a comedy, littering up perfectly good, or for that matter imperfect or lousy posts.

Let them stand or fall by their own merits. I know the pro arguement, that they can soften what might appear in the naked written word as sarcastic, rude offensive etc, that in a face to face interaction would be leavened by body language and greater explanation.

So this is a written medium, but through the written word we can to some extent form opinions about people, I've done so on other MBs, gone on to meet them and became friends with them.

Even some who use bastard emiticons.

I'm not sure I constantly take the piss, out of whom?

But why does anyone need to include cartoons in their sensibleish comment, personal insults and light hearted irony?


Eeerm, you twat.

You take the p1ss not out of individuals in a general and lighthearted sense...


I started using emocions after I litterally posted something like


"It's ridiculous to think that poeple have characteristics based on their nationality...apart from the French who are all ****"....and people thought I wasn't being serious ;-)

And worse, people who include PhD in their email address field, as part of their name.

Americans are the worst culprits.

But aren't they always :-S

A thing that gets on my tits are people who think they are not littering as they have put their rubbish on top of a post box or cabinet in the street. Where do you think its going to go?


Actually while we're at it, another pet hate is people who put water into an empty bottle of washing liquid or soap to make it last longer. FFS

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
