Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage

[woofmarkthedog]

Also...

...that pesky yellow rape is also turning the nations honey "white" ( if you see any at a country fair, sniff it & generally it has a wiff of brasica about it ) however, the honey produced in areas of London is some of the best in the Country

How about that eh ?

Ehhhh....in a rage now ehhh ?

I don't think so, no..

It?s got something to do with intensive crop rotation and not allowing stubble fields to dry out.

Anyway I think that?s what they were getting at in a programme I saw about how the lack of stubble fields in the countryside is effecting birdlife but I could be completely wrong.

While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day

And touch the stubble plains with rosy hue

Maltreatment of power supplies - by women.

You wouldn't do it to a baby. Why do it to a power supply?

When walking along a quiet street yet the only other person for miles is walking just ahead of me and at the same pace. I have to either cross the road. Or stop and let them get ahead. Or accelerate to a warp speed walk and overtake. But I cant walk just behind them. What is the correct etiquette in this situation?

[woofmarkthedog]

MrBen..

.. just tread on the back of their foot, enough for the heel to come out of the shoe

Then mumble a lame "Sooooo sorry" and be on your way, sharpish

Leaving them in a "Rage" all of their own

Oh yeah "Turn the tables" I say

"See how they like it, Eh....eh "

W**F

Coward of the fricking County, and the fact that it's so doggone catchy.

Now I love a song with a story, and plenty enough country songs do have a story, but here Kenny's singing away, jolly as you like, about a bloke who doesn't get into fights because his dad told him not to from prison or something. So some local types gang rape his girlfriend (presumably because they know he won't do nuthin about it) and then he finds his backbone and sorts them out.

I KNOW it's a fiction, but for fuck's sake Kenny, do you have to sound so fucking happy about it, and why the fuck does a woman have to get gang raped for CotC to find his cojones? Couldn't they just have run over his faithful dog or set fire to his corn or something.

Oh it makes me really fucking angry.

Jools Holland's belief that any song can be improved with a bit of boogie-woogie piano.

And another one for daytime TV viewers - Jules Hudson off of Escape To The Country.

And another - British TV making a pig's ear of Iron Chef.

Supermarkets

Why is it that the trolley you put your pound in is always one with a broken wheel?

Why is there NEVER any of the ?10 meal deals in M&S anywhere at ANY time?

Asda trolleys on the Old Kent Road that lock if you park in an Asda parking space on the other side of the road and the b@st@rd wheels lock so you end up having to take all the bags out and carry them to your car.

Sainsburys at Dog Kennel Hill, if you go into Starbucks why do you end up holding the door open for 50 people coming out with trolleys? I want a coffee not to be a Commissionaire, if I did I'd wear a uniform. And why do only 50% of them say thank you?

Waiting in the queue at the check out to purchase something and someone with a purse waits until they are told how much it is going to cost. Then they take what seems like ten minutes beggaring about with receipts, lottery tickets, keys and other flotsam and jetsam before they find some change. Then they count out their change to find that they don't have sufficient and go throught the same rigmarole to get some notes.

WHY DON'T THEY GET SOME NOTES OUT TO BEGIN WITH?

Serving yourself at the self check outs when it bleats "unrecognised item in bagging area", you feel like shouting "I've not put anything in the bagging area you stupid machine". Having to have random items verified for no reason whatsoever.

NO I DON'T NEED HELP PACKING thank you.

People standing about in front of a shelf/fridge/chiller cabinet. You clearly know what you want and yet they don't so they avoid making eye contact with you even though they know you are there and fail to get out of the way.

Why do people in tiny cars take forever to park them? Even then they make a pigs ear of it and end up dinging your door when they get out as they can't get the damn Uno or Toyota IQ in the middle of the bay.

Taking children shopping for groceries. Just don't do it. EVER. And DON'T let them run around like it's a bl@sted playground.

People on mobiles as they pay the staff. STOP IT.

Waiting to until the fishmongers section is really busy to ask if the Tuna is Line caught in a humane, organic, holistic dolphin friendly fashion.

I feel better now. Thank you. Until the next grocery shop.

Good point. Very very rude.

Phones in general are rude with regard to interrupting conversations. You wouldn't accept being interrupted like that in person but should you fail to answer your phone the caller will later have a pop at you for not picking up. And you'll apologise.

[ruffers]

And randombloke - damn right about that Starbucks door. Just fix the fffffffffflippin' thing.

David Cameron happy to sit in traffic jams "like ordinary people"?

Because the best way for our prime minister to spend an hour is inhaling traffic fumes around Piccadilly. Hope it chokes him.

Tw*tting Marie Antoinette - brioche anybody?

Walking in a clear bright morning with delicious fresh air... and getting stuck behind a smoker.

[Huguenot]

Walking in a clear bright morning with delicious fresh air... and getting stuck if front of a whinger. ;-)

Even if I stop smoking, they won't stop whingeing. There'll just be something else.

[charliecharlie]

hhhhhmmmm... not sure if smoking and

and

seem to really hung together Huguenot

[Huguenot]

LOL!

I'm not sure that Shenzhen is smoggy coz of smokers charliecharlie.

I think it's because of the cars that people drive, the cheap consumer rubbish they buy and the energy they burn.

The majority of these people are non-smoking westerners.

And they have the bloody nerve to complain about smokers? Makes me irrationally angry. Hypocritical blangers!!

[charliecharlie]

I don't know Huguenot... smokers can get a real 'fug-on' when they put their minds to it...http://stampworthy.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/benedictsmoke1.jpg

[Moos]

Gee, Huguenot, a whinge about my whinging on a 'tiny little things that cause you irrational rage' thread. You really do love me, don't you?

And for the record, no I won't just start whinging about something else. I just don't like breathing in cigarette smoke. I don't push for it to be banned, I don't think the law should be changed (again), and I genuinely feel sorry for smokers, given the laws against smoking in a lot of places. But I don't like walking behind someone in a garden, near a fountain and breathing in cigarette smoke. Is that so unreasonable?

[Huguenot]

I'm trying to be contentious, illiberal [word?] and most definitely not wishy washy.

[RosieH]

Haha Moos, I'm with you on this one. The irrational part of mine is that, when I've washed my hair in the morning, I somehow think that my lovely clean delicious smelling hair is more likely to soak up the dirty dirty cigarette smell.

It's weird, smoking doesn't bother me at any other time, but when I've washed my hair, it makes me really quite cross.

[????]

Moos, don't you have a tiny, tiny regard for the very few hardy souls who smoke in kids' playgrounds in the park? The way they stand there apparently oblivious to the ill disguised hatred poring onto them from 99% of their fellow play park usesr is actually quite noble.

[Moos]

Quids I do indeed - and the rational part of me thinks that the laws against smoking have gone quite far enough. But sometimes the irrational, specifically the selfish, part of me rises up and thinks Gah! why can't my environment be perfect and entirely to my liking?!
